"Arcadius huh, that's a nice name man."
Pat
"My name is Berkah, nice to meet you."
Berkah smiled warmly at the child who reminded him of himself, whilst rubbing his horned scalp.
"Thank you for saving me."
Arcadius lowered his head, his once lifeless red eyes now having a glint of hope despite the atrocities that he had gone through.
[He's so well spoken despite his age.]
"Don't worry about it kiddo, it was fate that we met on that alley."
Berkah said, his warm smile maintained.
An awkward silence befell them shortly after, Berkah wanted to say something to lift Arcadius's mood, but he knew nothing he said would truly offer him solace so the both of them just sat there in silence.
A few more minutes passed and a gentle knock on the door saved them from drowning in silence.
"Come in."
