"That little kid is sitting alone again." Arlecchino mumbled to herself once she noticed you in the corner playing with your favorite toy. "This won't do."

The amount of kids in the orphanage are getting adopted much more these days, yet they all ignored that little child. Though, as House of the Hearth's owner, she understood that you might be a little rebellious to people's liking.

You could tell that Arlecchino cared, by the way she secretly sneaked you some candies under the table, or when she recommended you to the adults, hoping you would find a good family. But if this kept going on, she might consider adopting you herself.

"You're not gonna say goodbye to your friends? They're leaving soon."

As Arlecchino approached you with that same cold demeanor, you already noticed how much her gaze has softened towards you from the day you two met. She knew how upset you got whenever another kid gets adopted.
