Indeed it was a Joker that wasn't supposed to be doing this job.
"Can you stop it?" I said to the Joker that was pulling out her tongue in and out.
"Don't you see this makes the child hapwy?"
"Just put your tongue inside. It's making me uncomfortable and I don't care less about this." I pointed my finger at it.
That angel grabbed it as if it was a toffy.
"Don't call him 'it'! Look, he likes you." She was jumping nonchalantly.
"Are you right on your mind? There's no way a human could like me or be more precisely us. They would try crawl back to their house after having an encounter."
I tried to brush off the false accusation Helena put on me but it failed miserably as I saw the child licking my finger.
"Ee-k! Gross!" I stepped back from him a thousand steps.
"Huh?" Helena just kept wondering why he did this for. I was at the same pace. This human child is not my thing.
"Let's dump him here and go." My idea was simple and logical. I was very proud of myself for making such a rational question.
But she crashed it in half.
"Are you saying your gonna let him die?" Her red-eyed were sparking with pity. And the more reason It was directed towards me. I was one step closer to the road. If I want I can go on my own. However, that wasn't the case as I was locked by Helena's pitiful face.
Should I dump her with that child? That would make things easier. I like simple things.
"Can't we do anything for him? Look at his adorable face and think!" She forwarded both limbs as if showing magic. That still going laughing look on that child annoys me but not at much…
I made a deep sigh and returned to my previous place.
"Well …"
"So, you would do something for him. I knew it! how couldn't someone drive by his adorable face." She jumped with excitement. I was right I should dump her also.
"I wasn't. I was just considering your opinion. That's all." I averted my half-opened eyes on the dark sky.
"Wait a minute, how can you tell it's 'He' not 'She'?"
"Hmm, I did see his d--"
"Stop! You can't do that to a man without his permission. That's a moral crime."
"Is it? But his a chil--"
"No, that's against his privacy."
"Okay." She seemed confused but that's all right. This airheaded needs to learn about it.
"Ok, first thing first. We have to think why he's here in the first place?"
"Perhaps someone left him mistakenly?" Her opinions are trash as always.
"Did this look like he was left here mistakenly? Humans are driven by emotional bound. They care their own much. This wouldn't a mistake."
"You're right on that…"
"Then why do you think?"
"Don't use your brain you would fall unconscious." Even if I gave her advice, she didn't listen. She went aboard.
"He was abandoned."
"Huh? Seriously? How could someone do that to this poor child?" Her shocking face was worth every penny.
"Why're you feeling so emotional to that child? Don't tell me you have emotions like humans? That would be absurd."
"N-No, that's not…."
"So, if he was abandoned, there is no good finding his parents."
"His parents left him here to die by us?"
"Don't feel sympathy for the child. Some humans are indeed worse than us."
I wasn't sure what to do in this situation. There's nothing I can think of because I never encounter something like this.
"Secondly, he's a human and we aren't. There's a huge difference."
Helena didn't appear to listen to me and rather advised something odd.
"What if we take him in?"
I wasn't sure if she was right of mind.
"Huh?! Are you okay Helena?"
"Completely!"
"Than how could you suggest such an absurd idea?"
"I don't think it is? He's would get hunted by others if we left him here, don't you think?"
"It is! I don't care less about that! I don't want to die because of him. Did you understand what others would do if they found this out? They would kill him!"
"But if they don't find out, then it wouldn't be an issue."
"Like hell, I'm gonna go with that fifty-fifty idea!" I washed out my hands and went on my way angrily. I was rather angry about the child than her idea. I was manifested by my instincts. For that reason, I wanted to get away without killing that child.
"Fine, you go! I don't need you! But remember I wouldn't let this child be killed. I would take drastic measures to save him! If you want to stop me then stop me but I wouldn't waver." Her voice was high-pitched.
"Why're you so persistent? That child isn't even related to you!" I yelled out aloud. I wasn't thinking how she would feel but in the end, I went with the flow.
"I felt like doing it! I don't know why but I wanted to save him. I just couldn't avert my face from him."
I made a long, long sigh. "Hmm, I don't have any objections. Get it together.."
"Really! Thanks!" She hugged me with a slight jump. Shit, girl what are you doing?
"I-I wouldn't say it again."
"O-Okay," she let go of me slowly. Her cheeks went red. Now, why're you embarrassed? It was you who did it.
She took the child in her arms and it began laughing unconditionally. He was happy because we took him in? Or it was my imagination.
"Look, his stares are locked on you. He must have liked you."
It appeared she was right…
"Don't say rubbish. Get your head together."
"I know I know. You're so shy, Finn." Helena teased me as if I'm her puppy. Shit, I hate it.
But the real thing awaits us. How are we able to handle this, only God knows.
