Boom shakalaka.

They took me to the capital. Probably judging from the clothes I was wearing, they must have thought I was from there. Well they weren't wrong, but I didn't want to come back here.

"So where are your parents little one?"

I didn't say anything

"Awe come on, you're safe now."

'No I'm not.' I thought

They kept trying to get me to talk. Until an old man showed up.

"My little flora, I was so worried about you"

"You know her sir?"

"Of course I do, she's my granddaughter."

"Ah yes, sir please be more careful with her. We saved her life today"

"And for that I'm grateful, let's go flora."

He grabs my hand. Once we were out of the soldiers sight, the old man brought me to a bread shop.

"Who are you?"

"I dont really have a name, but some call me Thomas"

"That's a stupid name. I'll just call you old man."

"Um okay then"

"Now how do you know my name?"

"I was a close family friend to your clan, especially your mother. What a nice woman she was. She reminds me so much of my daughter."

"Where's your daughter then?"

"She died"

"Oh.. I'm sorry for your lost" I bowed low.

"You don't have to bow to me child. Please it was more of my fault. I should have been more careful. I only wish I was there sooner or done something, but the past is the past. Now I promised your mother I would take care of you until the day comes"

"The day comes? When is that?"

"Dont worry about that. I looked everywhere for you. All over the tunnels underground to find your mother said you were going to be, but I saw that I was too late."

"Mother never told me to meet someone. She didn't mention anybody"

"She must have changed her mind at the last minute. I understood why later on looking for her. But by then it was too late"I squeezed my fist.

"I know...if only I did something"

"Now flora, she wouldn't want you to think like that. She would only wanted you to survive. That is what she wanted. For you to be happy, have friends, be loved, have a family, and to never forget who you are...that's something I learned from your mother"

I started to cry. Never in my life I would have thought that was my mother's wishes. I was so caught up on revenge that I never noticed. But for her and my clan I will be happy. Just from them. For mother.

"O-okay old *hic*man"

"You're more like your mother than you let on little one. Now this is my shop, I make and sell bread for the people here. You'll live here from now on. I'll take care of you until the day comes"

"Okay I like bread. I'll help you with the shop if you want"

"I'll appreciate that little one"

So from there I left my life outside the walls behind me and started my new one with Thomas I mean the old man. I saw him as my grandfather and he treated me like a granddaughter. I helped him make bread and even sell it to the customers. No one questioned who I was , they all believed I was his grandchild and frankly I didn't care. We saw each other that way anyways.

After a year, I knew more about the old man. Like how he was a criminal and tried to escape the cruel life underground and moved up. But all after he was hired as a hitman to kill off a powerful man that ruled a part of the nicer parts of the underground. He told me that he followed him everyday, until one day he was going to finish the job when his target stopped at a house and a little girl and a woman came and greeted him and welcomed him back home. The old man couldn't kill a man with a growing family, that reminded so much of his own. So he quit the hitman business. His boss wasn't happy and followed him and one day killed his wife and killed his daughter later. The old man tried everything to get there but he was too late. So with that he escaped and started to live his life above ground.

"So after that you meet my mom?"

"Yes i did. She came to get food for her parents and game me an Apple since I didn't have anything on me. She took me in and I lived with her for a while."

"Really?"

"Yeah then I learned how to make bread and your mother helped me open a shop and I've lived here ever since"

"Wow you lived a rough life old man"

"Unfortunately yes but that's all in the past. Now I have you"I blushed

"Ew old man. Don't say that it's embarrassing."he laughs

"Yes it's official. You're so much like my daughters."

That year I was turning eight in a few months. I was walking the streets of the capital. The old man told me to stay away from the tunnels or alleyways for he was afraid that I was going to get kidnapped but the guys that's looking for him. As I was daydreaming I bumped into something.

"Ow that hurt"

"Watch where your going"

I looked up and saw a kid about my age maybe a year older.

"I'm so sorry. I wasn't paying attention"

"Tch crétin" and he walked away. I didn't know what he said but couldn't care less for a rude kid like him.

"I'm baaaaaccckkk!"I took off my shoes and put down the groceries.

"Welcome back flora. I take it you didn't find any trouble?"

"No I didnt. Except I bumped into some kid on the way here and he was really rude to me and called me something I didn't understand.

"How'd he look like?"

"He had a serious face for a kid , black hair that was shaved under the flop of hair, and he had like blue grey steel eyes"

"Now what DiD he say to you?"

"I don't know something like créten"

"Crétin...moron"

"Hey I'm not a moron!"

"What, no that's what crétin means moron"

"Oh.."

"Its French. So his of a french background"

"French huh"

The next day I saw the rude kid again. So I called him out

"Oi! Rude kid, Im not a moron"

"Brat don't yell I'm right here. Bruyant" (*noisy)

"Tojikomeru idiota!"(*shut up IDIOT)

"Tch" and he walked away.

'So rude...wait! I forgot to ask his name' I thought.

"Ugh nice one flora. Real nice. "
