Once the crowd began clearing, Vin ushered me to follow him to head back to the orphanage. "Let's go, Lu."

However I stayed rooted in place, still unsure of what to do with these newfound feelings.

"Lu?" After taking one look at my face, a small smile formed against his face. It seemed like he understood what I was thinking. "Do you want to talk to the magician?"

I hesitated a bit, but nodded my head. There was no point in lying to Vin, especially when he can tell if I was being reluctant to say the truth or not. "How did you know?"

"You had the same face I had when I first saw someone painting for the first time." Vin explained. "And by the sparkle in your eyes during his show, you were amazed as much as I was when I decided to become a painter."

Then is he referring that I found something new to dream on? Becoming a magician was something I didn't give much thought on.

Vin then gently pushed me toward the direction of the magician who started packing his items. "Go on. I'll be waiting for you right here."
