Atlia: The Loyalty of Gratitude
Chapter 2: The Meeting

The young man entered into a room that was very different from where he had been before.

The room, filled with Medical equipment and electronics that are usually in the Hospital laboratory.

" so here is "

Looks like he already knew what place this was stained just before the day of this attack, he had already done an investigation in this place .

He started walking toward the computer in the room, and tried to turn on the computer.

"not on. I'm guessing it's been cleaned "

He saw some traces of cut in the cable like the cable had been broken by force, to unplug a data storage device.

" umm? .. The road is collapsed "

While thinking with something, he started circling the place five times while watching the room from corner to corner.

"oh, ... I understand "

He walked up to a wall in the right corner of the room, pushing it with his right hand as he did so the wall in front of him slid like a door.

"Binggo, secret escape in find~ "

He entered the secret room. In it he saw two doors, one made of iron, and another of wood. First he walked towards the right door made of wood and opened it.

It looks like a long, dark tunnel.

"so here's the way out, chasing him alone in the dark can increase the chances of getting lost or caught in a trap. All right, I leave it to the others. "

Then he looked at the side door that was covered by an iron door and walked towards her, then he tried to open it.

"ughh .. locked, looking for it will probably take some time, what can be done "

He sighed for a while Then he pulled the door tight at a moment later it started to pull like it was pulled with incredible force. the door was also akirnya detached from her hinges, she threw her door behind her.

Inside the room was dark but because the light entered from the destroyed door, he could still see what was inside.

Inside there is only a small room in which there is a bed, table, sleeping lights and some toys and even paper pictures lying on the ground .

"A room ? the children's room "

He began to enter the room and tried to touch the paper with his picture scattered on the floor.

"Who ?  "

A voice suddenly appeared from behind him. With a state of surprise he looked back quickly, he saw a white-haired girl accompanied by her bright red eyes with sparkles that stared at him.

"who are you ??"

He saw the girl wearing like all-white clothes with a model of clothes like a patient in the hospital .the girl looked at the young man blankly.

He turned his body quickly to see the girl clearly. He was shocked after he saw the girl's face. The young man's eyes opened wide while taking a good look at the girl's face

("10 not 14 years old, judging by his appearance is not wrong anymore. I found him ")

"..."

The girl tilted her head in puzzlement at the reaction of the young man who had only been silent from earlier. moments later the young man began to shed his tears.

The girl was puzzled by the young man's reaction, but she started to slowly advance towards the young man she was in .

"sorry "

It was a remark that the young man immediately said as he tried to cover his eyes that blocked his glasses, but still his tears still dripped onto the ground.

The girl fell silent on the spot as she was confused by her apology by looking at her face.

" why are you apologizing? .. Why are you crying ? "

the girl began to approach the young man, but the young man did not notice it because his own hands were covering his eyes.

" because .. I didn't until now I couldn't find you "

"but ... "

the girl touched the young man's hand and the young man was immediately shocked and saw the girl

" i'm here for you "

" who ... Your name ? "

" name ... My "

 the young man immediately lowered his legs like a half prostrate position then he held the hand of the girl who touched him with both hands.

" my name is Rei ... Rei Rilfa . want it then or now I'll still be your knight "

" Knight ? "

" Would it be that when you are afraid or sad, I will protect you. When you are clover or happy, I will be happy with you. if ..you allow it"

" Family ?

" uhh ? "

rei was somewhat surprised by the understanding from the girl's words.

" it's like family "

the girl continued her words. Rei who heard it smiled then nodded his head.

" i will always be by your side and I will protect you. Ok from now on I am your family so "

 Rei hugged her gently the girl was first somewhat surprised by the hug.

" don't go anywhere else "

rei smiled as he stroked the girl's head .the girl felt comfortable in rei's embrace then she fell asleep in rei's arms .

Rei who realized her was just silent and just stroked the girl's ship gently to let her fall asleep in his arms.
