Episode 139: Events in Pope Lars, Part 2

"Eh..."

Mayfa is making it hard to say as she looks down.

Seeing Mayfa like that, Roy bends in front of Mayfa and peeks into her face.

"Mayfa... if it's hard to say, you don't have to, but if you can help me, I'll do it?

An unexpected word came out of Will's mouth.

This guy...... I knew you were a good guy.

I don't know...... it looks so cool.

"Brother..."

Mayfa is staring at Will and wondering if I should utter the word.

Will waits still smiling at Mayfa like that.

This guy...... can you even look like this?

"Actually, I live in a Mayfa orphanage. My teacher says I don't have enough money... and next time Cliff wants to feed me something delicious because it's my birthday... silver coins are the most expensive money, right? So..."

Mayfa looks down, mouthing her words.

Right, was there a reason for that?

"Right. Mayfa's working hard."

Will says so and strokes Mayfa's head with his hand.

"Yeah! Mayfa, it's your sister! Mayfa's five, Cliff's three, and he's my brother, so I want to feed him some delicious food!

Mayfa answers with a face up and a full grin.

I knew it would be nice to have a kid smile.

Looking around, Roy, Allie, Shirley and Sonin were also smiling at Will and Mayfa.

"But Mayfa, you can't sell too expensive. That's a bad thing when you're bad."

"Sorry......"

I guess I reacted to Will's words' bad things'.

Mayfa shrugs as a shiver.

And Mayfa put her hand in her pocket and let it out.

Maybe he's trying to return the silver coins?

Will gently stopped Mayfa's hand like that.

"Still, Mayfa tried to do it for the teacher, Cliff, everyone. And you know what I can't do this time, right? I'll be fine if I don't do it next time. And this money is a gift from your brother to Mayfa, Doctor and Cliff. Instead, can we all call it a birthday party?
