Cry, Even Better If You Beg (Chat Story)
"Again"...?
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
They are killing birds for fun.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Hm~?
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Wasn’t hunting been always like that?
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
You do that?
Layla stared at the boy with her grim green pupils.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
*Gasp*
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Huh?
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
No, I don't!
He shook his head quickly.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
I don't think like that! It's cruel!
He gibber-jabbered with all kind of weird faces he can make.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Imagine how the animals are sad and in pain.
But for Layla, his positive response made her feel at ease.
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
(I thought he was kinds weird, but I guess he is a good guy!)
Her face started to light up with a smile.
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
Do you want another peach? 🙂
She asked with a more bright tone.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Yes! *Smiled and nodded*
She halved another peach and have the larger half to him.
His cheeks appeared to blush as he tried to fix his tight collar.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
This peach is so sweet and delicious. 😋
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
Right? I picked it from the forest. 😀
The sound of a faint voice could be heard.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
*Saw in the direction*
He knew it, it's his mother calling him.
Mrs. Etmann
Time to go home.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Yes, mom~! 😃
The boy who had been fiddling with a peach seed, hurriedly leapt to his feet.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
I have to go now.
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
Okay. Bye then.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Kyle Etmann.
He extended his hand at her.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
That's my name. And yours?
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
Layla. I'm Layla Lewelline.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Layla Lewelline.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
It's nice to meet you, Layla.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Let's play again later.
Layla gave him a clumsy handshake. The two shook hands with their tiny hands soaked in sticky peach honey, as if they were making a truce.
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
.....
Looking at him leave and reminding his words, "Let's play again later," she was taken aback.
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
(...Will we see each other again?)
He shouted aloud as he ran away into the distance.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
Layla~! I'll bring you something delicious next time!
Layla just gave a slight wave because she wasn't sure whether she'd see him again if she moved out of the estate.
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
(I might leave this place soon in the end anyway...)
Layla Lewelline (11 to 12 yrs old)
(But it's better to not tell him, right?)
Kyle came back to his mother.
Mrs. Etmann
Who is that child, Kyle?
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
It's the kid who live in the gardener's house.
Kyle Etmann (12yrs old)
She is the same age as me, mom.
She pulled him close with her hand draped over his shoulder.
