The aegis saw that her granddaughter still had a conscience and tenderness that he had never seen before. From the moment she woke up from her sleep, Shireen had always been obedient and cold. Building a high wall is invisible, but when faced with a small child like now.
Shireen was about to melt, the wall melted by itself. His granddaughter was still talking to Riki, her soft tone unlike when she was talking to him.
"Now I will carry you, so there is no need to be afraid."
"Thank you very much...Shireen..."
"You're welcome, bro. I'm glad to hear that, so hold on tight because we're going on a lightning-fast journey." Shireen held Riki's small body in her arms and walked closer to the aegis.
The aegis smiled so sincerely, the old man made Shireen uncomfortable with the look in his eyes that seemed to say praise for the good treatment of this boy named Riki. There was a small wave hitting the hard rock in his heart, it felt strange after a long time of not feeling it.
