"Halloween? Why would we be dressed for that in the midst of August?" The lady approached me.

..I was pretty startled at the sight of our new customers. Judging by how they looked, they weren't from around here.. hah I doubt they were even from this world. How weird.. it gives me some sort of feeling.. deja vu to be exact, as if I was in the same position as sir vliare.. speaking of which, where is he? Ah, wait, I'm getting distracted.. the guy's eyes. That scar. looks just like mine. Did he do that to himself? His blood is staining his shirt.. and why is he staring at me with those eyes full of hope and pupils so wide.. they seem confused and lost. For some reason, I can't help but be curious of them..

"Please sit down and wait while I grab a medkit." The lady glanced at the guy and nodded before taking a seat. The guy, though.. he was still staring at me with that same look in his eyes. It's weird cause I couldn't recognise what emotions he was feeling thru those sky blue eyes of his. I thought I nailed everything down.. man, I gotta tell sir vliare about this..

I took down the medkit from a high cabinet and went towards them. The guy was slightly taller than me.. okay, maybe perhaps way taller than me. He just stood there looking at me in front of the counter. I held his arm, "you're not gonna daydream forever, aren't you? Please take a sit."

Uzelle had to basically drag him from the counter to a chair in the middle of the shop. As the guy sat down, he was immediately greeted with a stinging feeling around his right eye, uzelle was disaffecting the scar gently with a cotton bud, "what happened to you? How come you got a scar such as severe as this? Did someone do this to you?"

The guy looked down, his eyes dimmed as if he didn't want to answer. Flinching occasionally.

"..right, I'm sorry for invading your privacy.. what are your names?"

The lady behind me was the one that answered, "the name's Lunox, he's Alexis."

"Ah.. nice to meet you two." I said, cleaning off his scar.

"I'm uzelle. are you guys by chance lost?"

"I guess you could say so.."

there was a brief moment of slience before we continued our conversation. I covered his right eye with a eyepatch to avoid judgement, word spreads like wildfire in a tiny village such as this. I looked down at Alexis.. he's looking up right up at me.. how adorable..

!!!.. what am I saying.. what is this feeling..

"there. its all done.." I stepped away from him.

"thank you.. I appreciate it."

"yeah it's no problem. uhmmm.. soo.. wanna buy a flower? these blue roses are my personal favourite"

"uhm.. we don't have money. like- at all.."

uzelle finally heard alexis's husky-like voice.. it shocked him, sending chills down his spine. in a good way.. of course.

"a-ah! is that so? what ashame, these flowers would have matched you perfectly.. I take it that you two have no place to stay?"

"yes.. that's certainly the case right now.." alexis muttered.

"fear not as to lilian is here!!!" lilian jumped out from behind the counter, her arms up in the air while she yells at the top of her lungs.

"lilian! have you been eavesdropping?"

"yesss!!! it's nice to meet you two! I am lilian!" she greeted the two with open arms, uzelle had to carry her to stop her from hugging lunox so tightly.
