Arielle tightened her grip on Sasha's two small hands. "I'm sorry, Sasha. We've done it."
Sasha lifted his face in surprise.
"I secretly took a strand of your hair yesterday. I'm sorry, Sasha."
The boy's heart was beating faster and faster.
"Th-then... what's the result?" he asked nervously.
"You and Crimson are siblings."
Tears filled Sasha's eyes, so did Arielle. Arielle slowly let go of her hand, and Sasha started to cry loudly. She didn't dare touch Sasha because she knew the boy would never be ready for this news.
Sasha was whimpering like a baby. Arielle couldn't do anything. She let him release his emotion by letting Sasha cry as much as he wanted. The boy hugged Arielle's arms tightly and buried his face in her arms. Seeing Sasha approach her first, Arielle stroked the child's hair gently.
"Was Crimson abandoned like me too???" he asked between his sobs.
"Sasha… we have been looking for your parents' whereabouts."
