Chapter 78 - Departure

"So Miss Leilena, is the payment ready?" I speak with a businessman-like smile as I look at her, at which she glares at me before making a tired expression and then nodding with a bright smile on her face. Then she thinks about something, gets confused and looks around me as if searching for someone before realising something as her face turns that to disappointment. 

'Eight different expressions before she speaks, huh?'

"Haha.." finding her actions cute, a chuckle escapes from my mouth as I can't help myself but pat on her head.

"You can meet Leraye before we depart. We probably will depart in one week or slightly more. I will notify you later," I answer her unasked question at which she gets embarrassed but nods slightly.

Looking at her, I can't help but recall Aisha when she was small. Her actions were mostly similar to Leilena when she wanted something from me, but couldn't gather the courage to ask for.
