"Hey! Stop crying!"

A young boy with red hair and beautiful bright golden hair asked with a frown. He reached out his hand and passed a handkerchief to me.

I was crouched down at a corner of a Pergola in the Royal Garden and was crying silently. It was probably days after Grandfather's death. 

I was devastated. By losing the only family I can remember… My Grandfather. I saw some people looking at me with cold eyes when Grandfather was alive. At first, I was scared. But Grandfather's gentle smile and his gentle pat on my head made me forget everything about those people and their cold gaze. And at that time, there were more people who smiled at me than those who didn't.
