When Elarion and Eleanor reached the orphanage the smaller children of the orphanage quickly surrounded them and asked excitedly," Big Brother Elarion how much fish did you catch today." said a cute little girl named Ely.
Elanor just smiled," I caught more than enough for everyone to fill their stomach to brim, little Ely."
The children hearing this became very happy as at the orphanage meat was a rare delicacy for them and having Elarion saying that they could eat fish till there is no space left in there made them very excited for dinner.
After hearing the commotion outside Aunt Amara who was working in the kitchen came outside and when she saw Elarion standing between the kids with a smile that could mesmerise anyone, she couldn't help but start to contemplate as why did things have to go wrong way and if only he could live the life he deserve.
She then approached towards Elarion and suddenly hugged him while saying " Elarion you didn't have to work so hard I can manage everything."
Elarion hugged her back " You always work hard Aunt Amara, If only i could help you a little there is nothing bad in it right."
" You are right but if you got hurt or something happened to you then what would i do."
" You don't have to worry about that I am old enough to take care of myself."
She chuckled at his words " Coming from a boy who turned 10 yesterday." At her words his cheeks turned feeling slightly embarrassed.
She then told all the children to clean themselves as they were not able to celebrate Elarion birthday yesterday they would celebrate it today. All children nodded towards her, and ran towards the well to clean themselves, she also returned to the kitchen to start preparing for the dinner.
Elarion looked at the back of Amara while she was returning to the kitchen and thought in his mind " I will work harder so that Aunt Amara don't have to work anymore."
Amara was a mature beauty who appeared to be in her thirties with hazel eyes, pale white skin that looked like even if someone held her hand tightly would leave a mark, had brownish black hair cascading down to her hips. Her body has the charm of a mature lady that could entice anyone she want.
The orphanage at which Elarion lived was very small as it could barely ammocodate them, including him and Eleanor there were a total of 7 children at the orphange beside Aunt Amara.
In the orphanage there was a kitchen and a hall where they usually eat and sleep, they would lay the mats at night and usually slept on those as they didn't have enough money to buy a soft bedding or mattress.
In front the orphanage was a little space where they kept 2 cows and numerous chickens as the milk of cow ammounted to as a other source of income for the orphanage. At the very least it was a peaceful place which Elarion called his Home.
