- your saving grace -
Arshile led her to a small patio off the kitchen, where there was a team of two cooks whipping up their lunch. âYour home is beautiful,â she said as she sat, thanking a server as she poured Rue some water.
Arshile was happy that the girl looked a bit more upbeat than before. Of course, that must have been really hard on her, but his chest swelled with... pride? happiness? He wasnât sure, but he assumed it would mostly be relief from knowing she would be in good hands.
âThank you, although itâs not mine yet.â He explained. âItâs going to be mine when I finally become the boss.â Arshile smiled and he thanked the server as well. âWe have today a very light dish, we didnât know what could suit your taste or if youâd be alright to eat something too heavy, so we decided on a very light menu with little fat. I hope thatâs fine for you.â His eyes looked curiously at her. âNow, would you like to tell me how you ended up there?â
