Celina's POV
I got dressed and Emily accompanied me to Philip's party tonight. I don't see why I have to go here. I'd rather play with Emily all night. I pouted and so Emily noticed me.
"What's wrong?" Emily asked.
I sighed.
"I want to play." I said and looked away.
"I'm sorry but you can't." she gently said.
I sniffed.
"But... I want to play now..." I said and just in time, Philip arrived.
"Alexa."He said which scared me.
"Y-yes?" I said while I hid behind Emily's dress.
He sighed and called someone over. We waited for a couple of seconds until a boy came.
"This is Shawn." He introduced the boy who looked kind of sad.
l slowly stepped out and looked at him.
"His father is a close friend of mine. He recently lost his mother due to an accident, would you play with him for a while?" He asked which made me slowly nod.
"Go on." He said to Shawn, he nodded and walked in front of me.
Philip gave me a nod before me and Shawn left the room. He was quiet so I didn't know what to say. I sighed and tried to think of something to talk about.
"Uh... how old are you?" I nervously said. He looked at me for a second.
"I'm 7 years old." He said without any life to his voice.
"I'm 6 years old!" I said proudly but I think he doesn't care about it.
"I'm sorry about your mom." I said but he shook his head.
"It's alright." He said but I can tell that it's not.
I sighed and looked at my feet.
"I never met my mom, I never even knew my parents." I said sadly which made him look at me, this time I've gotten his attention.
"Really?" he said and so I nodded.
"I'm sorry." He apologized but I shook my head.
"It's alright!" I said in a cheerful voice. He confusedly looked at me.
"Aren't you sad?" he asked but once again I shook my head.
"Why should I?" I said with a smile.
"You never met your parents." He said but it didn't bother me.
"If I let those things make me sad then how would I enjoy playing? Sure, I want to meet them but I know that the time will come that I will meet them. So for now, I make myself happy by the things that makes me happy, like playing!" I said cheerfully and I know that I just changed his point of view because he smiled at me.
"Do you want to go somewhere?" I asked.
He looked at me and asked.
"Where? Is it alright? What if Uncle Philip gets angry?" he said. Emily is right, people are afraid to get scolded by Philip.
"It's alright! It's not even that far!" I said and held his hand.
I waited if he would take my hand off but he didn't he smiled and trusted me which made me smile. I ran with him behind me.
"Where are you taking me?" He asked while we were running.
"To my secret hideout!" I giggled.
It's not actually secret, Emily and Philip knows about it. Whenever I go missing I go there.
"Okay!" He finally said cheerfully.
I could tell that Shawn is a good person.
