"Mr. Tartaglia!" The call from the young child echoes in the orphanage with a bright smile. She's very tempted to run over and hug him, and begins to do so, but stops herself. Instead, she offers him a large smile, hands resting in front of her chest.
"Are you here for another visit?" He's been visiting quite a bit more as of late. It's a little strange, since Matushka seems a bit more, on edge? Was there something going on? The questions rest in the back of her mind, not wanting to ruin the moment. She's glad he's here! She is!! Any time with the man makes her day better than it was. Well, save for time she got with Broyna buuuut that's on a different level.
โWell, if it isnโt Seele!โ
Aaaaah, he canโt say he isnโt a little disappointed that she didnโt actually hug him. Ah well, heโs going to be here for at least a day this time around--There will be plenty of time for that later. That aside, Rozaliya, Liliya, and Sin Mal would most certainly make up for her share the moment he sees them. Resting a hand on his hip, he tilted his head very slightly with a lopsided grin gracing his lips, the other keeping a firm grip on the large bag he has shouldered. Itโs nothing much, just a few....souvenirs.
Who is he kidding? Theyโre presents specifically purchased for the girls.
โWhat gave me away?โ He teases, mischief sparking in his eyes as he feels a little bit of weight off of his shoulders. Itโs been quite busy as of late, but not so busy that he canโt spare some time for the residents of Cocolia Orphanage. Of course, Cocolia herself wasnโt all that happy to see him, but it wasnโt as if the woman could entirely complain given his generous donations and the fact that he was quite popular with the girls.
โOf course. Now, where are Bronya and the others? Theyโre not planning to surprise me again, are they?โ
