An Ling decided went to the kitchen to drink some water as she realised that she can't fall asleep . Then, she heard some noise as she wanted to on the light. She caution looked at that place that she heard the sound came from. She used her power to light the candle as she heard the sound of breathing.

She saw the one that she didn't expect but she shouldn't be surprise at all. She sighed as she looked at the child, Grim. Grim want to said something but before he can speak, An Ling asked him question.
"Are you hungry?"
Grim nodded as he felt confuse.

An Ling said nothing but took out some tuna and gave the tuna to Grim.Grim looked at her with surprise before looked at the tuna a few seconds before looked at An Ling again. An Ling can sense his hesitant as she can saw her past self in this young one. She doesn't know how to comfort someone but she can used her actions to comfo them.

She gently caress Grim's fur as she told him.
"No need to afraid. You can eat it. After you eat, I will ask you some questions only. You can stay at here."
Grim looked at her as he widen his eyes before ate the tuna. An Ling drink some water as Grim was eating the tuna.

She silently looked at Grim as she drink water. After some time, Grim finished the tuna. Suddenly, he felt someone caress his fur. It looked at the adepti who looked surprised before retired her own hand. In a moment, it swear that it saw guilty and sadness in her eyes before disappeared.
