Chapter 29: Veronica.
Kein's POV
Rose and I became much closer friends. Eventually we started hanging out after our work at the orphanage. We had a spare hour or two and we would go to our meeting place.
The huge tree that always changed colors.
I remember the second time we met when she fell down and hurt her hand. I had to fix it for her. Now kind of looking back on it that was chivalrous of me, well sort of.
We were sitting on the top of the tree quietly as I dangled into the branches. Rose was just kicking her feet in sway with the breeze. "Kein why do our noses run? But feet smell?" she asked, giving me that curious look of hers.
I tilt my head in annoyance as I recall back to her question, "Is this a riddle?"
"Think about it. We have a runny nose. We have smelly feet but why are they named like that?"
I was about to give her an answer until I realized. "Wait, hold on- I need to think."
Runny nose- smelly- wait isn't it the opposite? Wait what?
