Dion and Ega just entered the orphanage that looked simple. The Orphanage named Bright Smile. The building is quite old and looks a little damaged here and there. But the cheerful sound of children's laughter could be heard on the sides of the building. Until an old nun appeared to attend them.
"Good afternoon. Can I help you?" asked the nun.
"Ah yes, good afternoon," Dion and Ega saluted.
"Introduce me Dion and this is Ega. We work in a magic shop around here. We want to come visit to give you the gifts we brought and tell a little story for the orphans here," said Dion.
"Magic shop?" Nun asked.
Every Xander lost reason to lie about who they really were or where they came from. They always say that they work in a magic shop. A mysterious place that holds many tricks and intrigues in it with the same goal of giving happiness. Of course the building never existed because their real magic shop was Malghavan.
"What a coincidence. There was also someone who came today. Actually, she is a permanent donor at our orphanage. Please come with me behind," said the nun named Maria.
It seemed someone was dancing in front of the orphanage children, the number of which was not too many, only about 20 children ranging in age from one to 12 years. She is a ballerina in black clothes. Seeing the swan decoration on his head, they knew it must be a story about the Black Swan. Even though they didn't know much about such art either, but the Black Swan was indeed a fairly popular one and most of the people would know it.
Dion and Ega were invited to sit in the back row, waiting for the ballerina to finish her dance. Their eyes were clearly glued on the ballerina who looked beautiful with white skin and a slender body also moving very gracefully. For some reason their hearts beat wildly when they saw the dancer in front of them. Sister Maria, who could see the admiration in the eyes of the two men, spoke.
"Her name is Emma, she used to be a resident of this orphanage. But now she has become a pretty successful ballerina. She even often gives to this orphanage," said Sister Maria.
"So her too?" Dion hangs his words.
"Yes she is also an orphan. Actually I also don't know because 23 years ago someone just put her at the door. I don't know if she still has parents or maybe they don't exist but until Emma grows up no one has come for her," said Sister Maria.
"No one ever adopted her?" Ega asked for some reason it was presumptuous to ask.
"Now we can indeed see Emma grow into a beautiful girl. But Emma wasn't like that before. Many even called her an ugly duckling because she used to be very dirty and unkempt. That's why no one wanted to adopt her. Things changed when she was 15 years old and won a ballet competition in this area. Suddenly many wanted to adopt her after she won the competition but Emma refused and chose to stay here until she graduated from school, "said Sister Maria.
Dion and Ega just nodded in understanding. The ballerina's smile looks very sweet and hypnotizing. How could anyone have the heart to throw away a baby who was once so adorable and definitely innocent. Why do people always judge everything from the outward appearance? But that's why humans are often only concerned with their own ego. It was long enough for Emma to finish her dance.
Another sister came forward and tried to control the children while Sister Maria greeted Emma with a proud smile.
"Sister," said Emma kindly.
"You've always been amazing Emma," said Sister Emma.
"Thank you sister," Emma said blushing.
"Ah, let's introduce them, they said from a magic shop around here. Dion and Ega. They want to read stories to the children," said Sister Maria.
They shook hands and introduced themselves to each other.
"They also brought food and drinks for the children," said Sister Maria.
"Thank you very much for taking the time to come. I'm glad that there are still people who care about the condition of the children in this orphanage. But a magic shop? I've never seen a magic shop around here," Emma wondered.
"Ah hahaha that. Our kind of business is not very popular. It's only famous among itself, "said Dion originally.
"Ah, that's right," said Emma then.
"If I may ask, where do you often perform?" Ega couldn't help but ask.
"Ah yes, I often perform at the French Arts Building. Of course you can come if you want," Emma closed again and Ega just nodded.
"We'll definitely come sometime," Ega's smile grew perfectly.
Sister Maria came forward and let Dion and Ega take turns to talk. The laughter and cheers of the orphanage children were heard. They look happy just by seeing the smiles of the two and their handsome faces of course.
"Ah handsome uncle," exclaimed a little girl with blonde hair.
"You're too flirty, Brunette," said a small man there.
"Hi, kids. Let me introduce myself, I'm Mr. Dion and this is Mr. Ega. We are siblings. We came today to tell a story and give you some gifts," Ega began to distribute snacks and Urgos to everyone there. including Sister Maria and Emma who also sat there.
"Because we just saw Miss Emma's perfect appearance, my brother and I here want to tell a little about the story of a young ballerina named Felicie. But before that, I want to meet a beautiful girl named Angelina," Ega said instead.
As her name was called, a nine-year-old little girl stood up and gave a little prancing sign of happiness. Her brown hair is in two pigtails. Looks very normal actually except for his communication skills that don't seem to be fully developed.
"Angelina, will you sit up front with us?" invite Dion which of course is answered with a nod and an enthusiastic smile by the little girl.
"I also want to sit in the front," said a stocky child with a sulk.
"The place will not fit you," said a girl who was indeed thin with shoulder-length black hair.
"Don't forget, you can listen to our stories while enjoying the food and drinks we serve. Don't worry, all the food and drink must be delicious because we prepare it ourselves," said Ega with a smile.
"Okay, because Angelina is ready here and everyone looks impatient, I'll start the story," said Dion when Angelina was in between and Ega.
