"I don't have a full name. I haven't been baptized yet. My name is Veronica. I live in the temple," Veronica introduced herself in a polite fashion. "What about you?" She was becoming more curious about him.
Arthur told her, "I haven't been baptized either. So, I also have one name."
Veronica tilted her head. "How can that be? You should at least have a family name."
Arthur shook his head as he replied, "I don't. What about you? Why don't you have a family name?"
"I'm an orphan," Veronica stated.
Arthur looked at her in the eyes. Her emerald eyes were firmly staring at him. There was no touch of sadness. He said, "There are two types of orphans in the temple. One, after they were born, they had no parents to take care of them, and two, their parents threw them in the temple and never return. Which one are you?"
Veronica answered truthfully, "I don't remember anything. All I have heard that after my parents died, I was brought to the temple."
