12 Thinking about the old times

Alastor was whistling he had a smile on his face. He was happy as happy as he could be. Blood was on the cheek and his hands were also covered in blood while he was whistling, he was pulling a dead corpse by its leg. Alastor seemed not to be exerting much strength pulling the corpse as he seemed to pull the corpse with ease. Alastor was walking a specific path someone was waiting for him only for Alastor to finally arrive.

"Ah I see so you had waited for me kid" he said it happily.

A kid was holding a shovel and was in a hole. It was snowy snow was still falling from the sky and snow was covering the entire ground. The boy was wearing simple clothes that was cheap and dirty the cheek of the boy had dirt.

The boy smiled when seeing Alastor let go of the shovel and climbed out from the hole. The boy stood in front of Alastor with his eyes sparkling "A!" that was what the boy said just the word A.

"So, you finished digging the hole"

He looked at the hole which was deep. He threw the corpse in the hole and then jumped in getting the shovel. Alastor came fast out of the hole and started to bury the corpse with the dugout dirt The boy was standing beside Alastor he was trembling.

The clothes he was wearing were also thin which is why he feels the cold more than Alastor does. Alastor was wearing simple winter clothes not too thick ones but enough to keep him warm. Alastor stabbed the shovel in the ground making it stand still and took his jacket off throwing it on the boy.

"Now don't freeze to death on me kid as it seems I had grown quite fond on you"

He took the shovel out from the ground and continued to bury the hole with the dirt. It took half an hour for Alastor to cover the hole neither of the two were much talking the boy was looking around. The boy was making sure no one was around seeing what the two were doing it would been bad if they were found out.

"Alright let us go now"

He pats the boy head and the two started to walk away from the buried corpse. The boy was rubbing his hands his nose was red he had been waiting for Alastor a long time outside. Alastor had sighed it was troublesome for him when the boy does that, he was not really that happy when seeing the boy doing such things so far for him.

"I told you that I would come a bit late not only that I had also told you just yesterday that I would dig the hole so why did you do it"

"a...." the boy made a sad A sound.

The boy did not look in Alastor eyes he was aware of what he did was against what Alastor had said but this is what the boy wanted to do. He wanted to be helpful to Alastor even if it meant he would have to work in such conditions if he is useful to Alastor, he will do it again.
