One little girl and the young man who stared at each other for few seconds. The young man wasn't experienced in people not replying to him, usually he was the one who would hum or nod his head in approval whenever his subordinates were asking for his orders.
But now that he asked Elise if she was alright and the other party was looking at his extended hand then at his face without saying anything he didn't know what to do. Not to mention, her beautiful eyes were curious and naive something he wasn't used to normally people would look at him with fear or suspicion.
Fortunately, Elise got out of her stupor and grabbed the man's hand before standing up. Normal kids around her age would be teary eyed by now but she simply patted her little butt before addressing the strange person in front of her.
