The little girl looked up, shocked.
"W-what?" She blinked a few times toward Xavier and then Luka. "C-come w-where?"
Xavier smiled at her. The little girl and the way she stumbled upon her words with her red cheeks reminded Xavier of Luka when he had first met him.
Luka looked up to Xavier with a smile, knowing that he had seen the way Luka was looking at the little girl and had guessed it and also helped Luka with it.
"Come with me?" Luka smiled at her, his eyes bright with happiness and anticipation. "If you like I mean!" He quickly added. "I—we can help you."
The girl looked at Luka through her lashes. "H-help me?"
"Taking care of you." Luka took the little girl's hands and captured them between his hands. "I promise you I will do everything in my power to help you in any way I can."
