“Whatcha got there, huh?”
Frail and pallid with an odd shadow that clung and sunk in her eyes, Shilo was a curious sight for the eye. The kid hid behind her hair and her gaze harbored a secret road to an elusive garden where fairies dwelled, nestled in their water lilies. Where armored frogs were faithfully sworn under the rule of their benevolent queen.
Timidly, she lifted lithe fingers and to his astonishment, inside her cupped hands, she revealed a red little lady bug tottering about. The chubbiest he’d seen.
“For me?” He motioned and she nodded eagerly, a small smile spreading when he took it with utmost care and caution. Cradled it as if it were a handful of priceless jewels. “Gosh, I feel bad, Miss Shilo. I don’t have anything for you.”
Silently, Shilo joined him on the bench and Omega scooted on the edge, allowing her to witness its segmented antennas wiggling about. “But don’t worry, I’ll take care of her⎯⎯or him. Whatever they may be. In fact, they will have a name! Pubs and Pubs will be cherished.”
Omega would make it up to her. Something special for Little Miss Shilo.
