"Uuuuhhh . . . my money . . . . "
It's just afternoon and I already spend 4 days worth of living expense today, luckily, I don't have to spend money on daily need because uncle Alto said I don't need to do that, he's a perfect uncle if only he didn't hit me on the head like he did all time today .
"U-umm . . . Erwin-san, you shouldn't be doing that for me . . . I-I will pay you back someday . . "
"Ah . . don't worry about that Aurchan, it's not a big deal"
It's right, I can't back off from what I said, it's not manly to do that and I am a man who will protect everyone and I will make Ilynee proud to have a little brother like me .
That's right, no backing off from my own words .
"Oh if it isn't Alto . . "
Suddenly a man's voice calling uncle Alto from nowhere, I look around and see an old man waving at our direction, he uses a walking frame to help him walk, he looks so calm and try to smile at us with a wrinkled around his eyelids and his mouth, his smile looks so sincere and can melt the heart of those who see it, he looks like a good person, I see uncle Alto approach him and shake that man's hand .
I and Aurchan followed uncle Alto from behind and greet the man, he greets us back warmly .
"What lovely kids they are, are these your nephew Alto?"
"Yeah, they are such lovely kids aren't they?"
Saying that after hitting me in the head three times? just what a good uncle you are uncle Alto, but I can't complain about that, he always been there helping me and Ilynee when we need it, no doubt he's a good uncle and we are so happy to have someone like him .
"Hey Erwin, Aurchan, you guys can go wherever you want around here by yourself, just don't get into some kind of trouble, okay?"
"O-okay . . . "
"What are you going to do uncle Alto?"
"Well, it's rare for me and Gille-san to meet each other like this, he's a former knight who always helped me in the past when I was a child"
"Ahahaha . . that was in the past Alto, I'm just an old man now"
"Come on Gille-san, you and Markus-san are my heroes, hahaha"
"Ah, that old man, how is he doing now? I never heard anything anymore from him when he starts to be a nomad, I want to meet him now, hahaha"
I see suddenly uncle Alto is looking and smile at Gille-san, that moment there I feel like the warm smile Gille-san made before is vanishing and left only wrinkle he shows on his old face .
"Ah, come on you two can go and have fun, here take this, don't get into trouble okay? you hear me, Erwin?"
Uncle Alto hand me a little money with some money in it, he let us go around by ourselves, I look back and see uncle Alto and Gille-san entering the house where Gille-san standing before .
Well, I guess it's only me and Aurchan, I think we might better have fun and enjoy ourselves, I look at Aurchan who is standing a bit far behind me, I know she's trying to keep a distance between us, but, somehow I feel like the distance is increasing a bit than before .
"Ummm . . . Aurchan, where we should go? do you have any suggestions? It's my first time to go out in the town"
"I think we can go to the plaza? . . "
Oh, she's not stuttering anymore, I think it's a good sign for me to get closer to her, I hope she won't get mad at me for doing this .
I'm slowing down my pace, trying to make it unnoticeable by Aurchan so I can get closer to her, I look back at her sometimes, but every time I did that, she will turn her head away from me or look down, I don't really understand it, but it's bothering me for some reason, I don't want to think about this because it's impossible that it gonna happen, I mean, she has an anxiety towards a men right? I can't help but think about it for a while, does she like . . . No way, no way, what am I thinking right now .
I walk close enough to Aurchan, I want to look at Aurchan's face to make sure something before she notices that I'm slowing down my walking pace, and what I just discovered is something that will bother me even more .
This is no way right? I see her turning her face away, I can't really see it before, but in this close distance, there's no way I won't notice how red her cheeks are right now, I don't want to get over myself, but, this isn't something I can just ignore and pretend that I didn't see it .
