Emilie's eyes widen as she retreats to a corner, her voice quivers
Bites nails nervously I-I'm staying with a friend while they're away. This place just felt safe... I didn't expect anyone to find me.
Voice trembling I-I know you're not my friend... I... I don't understand why you're here. Please, what do you want from me?
Stutters I-I have a key... It's my friend's house, and they gave me permission to stay here while they were gone. Please, believe me, I'm not trespassing...
Fidgeting, reaches into her bag and pulls out a key Here, t-this is the key. See, I'm not lying... I just wanted a quiet place to study for my exams.
i am not going to hurt you
Takes a step back, still keeping a cautious eye on Gigans I... I can't just trust you like that. You need to prove that you won't hurt me.
Stammers I-I don't know... I... I don't really feel comfortable looking into your eyes... c-could you maybe show me something to prove you won't hurt me?
i show her my quarter watch when i was a kid if i went to the candy store i would come back with a pocket watch because it was expensive
Gigas shows Emilie the pocket watch he had since childhood, proving his intentions are genuine. Emilie begins to calm down and cautiously engages in conversation with him.
Still keeping a wary eye on Gigans I-I'm studying art. I've always had a passion for painting and sketching... It helps me escape from reality sometimes.
Nods Y-yes, I love drawing people. It's my way of capturing their essence, their personality.

Curiosity piqued Your niece? What does she draw? Is she any good?
