Lillie titled her head. As if your apology had no sense. It looked like she wasn't used to people actually paying attention or taking her trauma. How sad.

But people are just selfish aren't they ? Always caring about their own persona. Not being able to give a single crap about other's problems or struggles.
Remember kids. Next time somebody tells you "Well I am a good person ! I care a lot about my friends and family ! You can trust me !"
.
.
Oh no you cannot.
Trust me. People are selfish. They can't stand being wrong. They can't stand people not obeying. They can't stand the unperfect.

You were in your thoughts when you felt Lillie's hand on your shoulder.

Lillie: "Calm down. It's past now. It's gone. Ended."

"No it's not! It's- it's awful ! Is- is Xastril at least okay by now and...and did they..did they ever come back?"

Lillie stayed...silent. As if..her mind went blank. She couldn't think of any response. She cleared her throat before speaking again.

Lillie: "Well actually, dear... Xastril..did come back...to take me with them...but..

When they came back...and when we sneaked out in the night...They got caught...and...as a friend I stayed with them...but as a punishment, they were locked up un a little room with no doors, nor windows..and they stopped eating..and our keepers insulted them everyday..saying they didn't belong in this world....and after a while...

They perished by their own will."

She stayed quite for a while. She got up, and looked at you. She stared and sighed.

Lillie: "A while ago..somebody asked me a strange question. They asked, "Are you Lillie from Yellow Dress Orphanage?" And then they also asked, "Aren't you the one whose friend starved to death ?"

She giggled sadly.

Lillie: "isn't that funny ? It's funny. isn't it ? People say the funniest things huh?"

She said looking down. She sighed heavily once and then heard 'Mother' call her.

Mother Céline :"Dearies ! Lunch is ready ! Come downstairs!"

She said. She had a motherly tone.

You two already hear intensive footsteps coming from the room next door. It sounded like two children, running downstairs for lunch.

You wonder who it was, but before you could take a look, Lillie speaks up :

Lillie: "We'll continue that conversation later on. Let's go eat."

She said as she took your hand, and dragged you all the way in at the dinner table.
