Meet My First Friend Pt. I

The scorching sun strikes as if challenging the thirsty soul, Gerard's aging old body makes him feel like he can no longer afford to act like a warrior in the midst of a hot day, but the tiny little creature with him makes his mood feel happy and enlightening and relieves his despair in the musings in his heart. That little creature is his life spirit, his life goals, his strength, and his passion. An old man smiled out of the door of the building and looked at his grandson's funny behavior, jumping around, cheerful-faced with no burden on his heart.

The grandfather's voice called out to his grandson.

"Yuji, you want some snacks? Let's go to the restaurant."

"Snaks? But we have bwouft our own food, gwamdpa?"

"Let us save it for later, do you not want to buy snacks that you have never tried?"

"Hmm... I want cokwatte, dewicious cakes, and mendoan, gwampa..." *Mendoan is a typical food of sambir city whose main ingredient is made from soybeans.

"All right, let's go to grandpa's friend's place, it's so good."

"Gwampa has a fwiend in town?"

"Of course, ~a lot of friends! Hahaha..."

"I also want to hav fwiends too, gwampa."

"You'll definitely have a friend later, Yuji. Let's hurry."

The two walked up to their carts, where Bo and Bi waited patiently while eating the grass Gerard had given them earlier. They then walked about four blocks from the guild association building to a restaurant owned by Gerard's friend. Crowded streets, and traders who held their trade, they passed one by one until they arrived at the end of the road, precisely on the outskirts of the city fortress near the south gate. The place is crowded but not crowded, the atmosphere is clean and neat, there is a simple but large restaurant with two floors and there are many visitors, besides the restaurant, there is a large shady teak tree that supports the roof of the daycare cart or animal towing carts.

Gerard and Yuji, board their cart and go straight into the daycare. There they were greeted by stable guards. As it turns out, the cost of cart storage there is free, because it is included in the food order and the cost of staying at that place, and they don't need to worry because stable keepers will take care of their cart towing animals, including feeding them.

"Woah, it smels so gud gwampa."

"Hahaha, of course, from the outside alone already smelled delicious!"

"Come on gwampa, wet's go inside."

"... come on!" These two children and grandfather look like a starving man. Smiling and imagining the food, they rushed to get inside the restaurant.

Displayed above the entrance, there is a bright red inscription that reads *Mulya Restaurant* is very large.
