As the crowd look at the young man pitifully, all they could do is sigh. They were already used to seeing the young man get beaten or almost lost his life. Some is rooting for him while others were amazed how dedicated he was on pursuing the girl. Some girls are jealous wishing that they are just as pretty and could catch the young mans attention while some guys are angry towards the young man thinking that he deserved to be beaten.
"who the heck did he think he was?"
"Shamelessly courting our Goddess!"
But all of it was forgotten when they have soon seen how the way a stranger accused the Goddess of their heart about killing his father, although it is true its his fathers fault and not their Goddess! so from them hating Josh their madness is then transferred to the young man called Jang. Looking at him disdainfully like a pest everyone ignored the lifeless looking man.
Angrily walking away from the young man named Jang who accused her while she had forgotten about the annoying young man she called Josh the bastard. Aly straightly went to the meat-shop with great speed to deliver the wild boar she hunted all day long at the forest today.
Complaining she said to herself "augh! i was already two minutes late because of those shameless bastards!" "how come i attract troubles everywhere?" "is my bad-luck so big that misfortune seems to favor me.?"
As she was whispering each word due to irritation she didn't notice that some people are turning their head around unexpected to hear their Goddess beautiful voice to spit words full of complains hehe..
she hates tardiness most of all if there is no good reason to slack off. Time is money, its such a waste of her precious time whenever it got wasted for nothing no matter how little time it was.
As she approach the shop, she saw a couple happily talking to each other. The old man is quite tall yet fat but he looks gentle with his curly white hair and mustache hiding his small but a little thick redden lips, white robe while the old lady still look like twenties despite being in her fifties. She is a little shorter that the old man, snow white skin, long blond hair that reaches to her waist and a lips as sweet as a peach, pinkish long dress.
While the couple is happily babbling. She was wondering what it feels like to have a family.. to live with family and to grow old having her family beside her.
"its not that i had forgotten the feeling perhaps i just miss it." , "Longing for a warm hug and a warm smile."..."If only my parents were still alive maybe i will be as happy as this old couple was."
While she was meekly looking the old woman suddenly noticed her presence, with a warm smile showing on her face.
"oh dear, you are here. Your grandpa Zion and i has been waiting for you. We thought you will never come today".
"Yes indeed.. but then we thought that you are maybe running an errand so we wait for a extra time" old man Zion said looking at her attentively he add"are you OK my child?"
"Have you already eaten? How about you eat with us."Said the old woman
"We are here waiting at the counter for you. We know that you are tired and hungry. From now on every day you should come here and eat with us. You can also stay here"
Drown in her own thoughts not hearing the words of the talking couple
Seeing how silent the girl was, old woman named Hale said "right..right, that is a good idea. We also need someone to be with us because we are getting older. We only have one child but he was on a far away place. We can only think of you as someone we can live with. "
"How about living with us?"
seeing that she is still silent. The old woman gets near her and hold her hand making her stunned, looking at her so gently.
not knowing what thought running in the little head of Aly, the old woman said "for now let us eat, you can think about it once you get home. You don't have to worry and get hurried, we will wait for your answer however im waiting for a positive one"
"hahaha"
both the old couple smiled and laugh at how shameless they are and Aly knows very well that they were just trying to make her smile so she just nod as they go to the table full of healthy dishes. Some are meat but mostly vegetables and fruits. The meat is actually cooked for the little girl. They loved her so much ever since she was a child.
Her parents and the shop owners were good friends and like a family to her. She saw them often visit in their house when she was young, so her trust to this old couple is not as ordinary as what people think. They thought
