"Uhh?" Kristen asked once the story was over, unable to form another word.
"Unbelievable, right? It would be for any human." The old lady smiled fondly as she remembered her son.
"N-no, but why did you choose the Devil? It was that easy to keep closed eyes on god with just one deal?"
She didn't know if the lady was joking around because who can casually talk about Devil with no fear? Like how can a human adopt Devil as their own son? If there was no hidden agenda behind it, was Devil such a soft-hearted person to go for adoption? Kristen wanted to laugh it off but the old lady's face showed so much sincerity that she had to believe every words.
"God never listens, dear. I am still a devotee but sometimes to get what you desperately want, you have to make compromises." She explained.
"I can say it didn't even feel like a deal to us. He just gave us a family, a very loving and dependable one. I had forever be thankful to him." She continued.
