Jack returned to barn with some bread and a wet cloth. He gave Amelia the plate and said "Looks like Emmett hit you really hard. Iam so sorry about that." He rubbed the wet cloth on the back on her head. It was cool and felt nice ! "You are so nice to me, why ?" asked Amelia . Jack looked at her with those blue eyes.

 "Well you are our guest... kind of. we have to be kind to our guests !!" Jack smiled at her. Amelia gave him with the 'yeah right' look. "What ?" asked Jack " Ok fine . its just i felt really bad for you".

Amelia looked at him. "why ?" . "Because i know you probably want to go back to your family. i felt the same way 15 years ago." Jack answered. "When i was 10 a group of bandits attacked the village i lived in my mother who was the only one in the family i had. till this day i dont know if she is still alive. i was there in the ruins of the village but one the bandits spotted me they brought me to their leader.

the devil told them to do away with me but one of them refused. he said he would take care of me. the leader refused but the man pleaded. he finally said yes. i returned home with the man. he has a huge family and he had a wife and a son who was my age also known as Emmett. they brought me up. I never really take part in their theiving activities. i just stay back wondering if my real mother is still out there."

"Finished the sob story ?" asled Emmett. Amelia glared at him. "Iam sorry but you are not nice" she told him. "oh iam so sorry ma'am !" teased Emmett. "Hey back off clown !" defended Jack. "Hahaha" Laughed Emmett. "ok fine iam sorry Amelia." answered Emmett and this time he was serious. "Appology accepted " Amelia answered smiling. "So you are like a brother to Jack"  "yeah" answered Emmett " iam the brother Jack never had !" smiled Emmett .

It wasnt so bad. These guys were kinda good. "Amelia looked at jack who was still rubbing the wet cloth on her head. "Its alright now Jack. Thank you" Jacked looked back at her " You are always welcome" He smile at her. She looked at him with grateful eyes. It was not bad being here with someone who actually cares. and who is handsome.
