Arthur could only pat her head lightly as she cried. He didn't think that seekers, in their spiritual bodies, can cry. And it felt as if Hana's existence was growing stronger, as her tears disappeared into her skin after rolling down her face.
"Are you really... going to help me? I don't want to disappear. I don't want to, Mister," she cried, and the tears didn't cease. Arthur could tell the fear she had toward her parents.
"I'll help you, but you need to be brave first. You need to go back to your house and wait for me. Tell me how to find you, and I'll make sure to be there to take you." Arthur pushed forward, but the little girl was hesitant. "I know it's scary, but you won't get anywhere if you stay here."
Hana nodded silently, and Arthur heard a meow behind him. He turned to see the cat looking at him with approval. However, it seems that he was the only one capable of hearing it.
