The Love From Vengeance

RIEL’S POV

I opened the door, only to see a group of little children. They looked like they had not eaten for days, with messy hair and pale faces. They were even wearing torn clothes, and I couldn’t help but feel sorry for them. They seemed to have no one to take care of them.

“Good afternoon, miss,” one of the children greeted, her tone low and soft. She was the one standing close to the door, while the others stood behind her.

“Afternoon, sweetheart.” I squatted with a huge smile. “What is your name?” I gently touched the little girl’s cheek.

“Chloe,” she answered.

“Okay, Chloe. It’s nice to meet you.” I took my hands off her face, still smiling at her. “May I please know why you all have come to my house?”

“We’re really hungry, miss,” she answered softly. “We have no food to eat, so we thought if we came to you, you might find us something to eat. You don’t have to give us that much. Even if it’s just one piece of a cookie, we would appreciate it so much.”

“One piece of a cookie? How is that going to satisfy each and every one of you?” I asked in wonder.

“We’ll share it among ourselves, miss.”

“Wow,” I whispered to myself, absolutely surprised. “Do you guys have parents?”

“No, we don’t. We’re all orphans wandering around the streets,” Chloe responded.

I felt so sad for them; it was really touching. I couldn’t let these children starve; I just couldn’t. I wasn’t even going to scold them or whatever. I’d make sure they eat until they are full. And I could also let them live in this house. Andre wouldn’t get angry with this; he was a kind-

hearted person, so I knew we were on the same page.

“Okay then.” I got to my feet. “All of you, come inside.” 1 opened the door wide for them.
