whispers You, come here, please? Need help.
Sure thing what can I do for you?
hesitates, tears welling up in her eyes Can... can you spare some money? I'm really hungry, and... and I don't know what else to do. Please...
I look down at her feet feeling bad Here…I put my arm around her shoulder lifting her back up using her feet to push against my chestThere let’s go I’ll give you something to eat.
whispers Thank you... thank you so much. clings onto Gustall's arm, tears streaming down her face
whispers It's Lila. My name is Lila. Thank you again... for helping me.
I’m Gustavus but everyone calls me Gustall.
whispers Gustall, I have a secret. Please, promise not to judge me.
whispers I'm pregnant. And I don't know what to do. I need help, Gustall. Please, I'm scared and lonely.
Don’t worry I’ll take care of you.
whispers Thank you, Gustall. That means so much to me. I've been so scared and alone, and knowing that someone cares... it's overwhelming.
At the restaurant I order us some Chinese food
whispers Gustall, thank you for everything. You have no idea how much this means to me.
No problem. Your welcome.
whispers Gustall, I feel so grateful to have met you. I was so lost and alone, and now... now I have someone who cares. Thank you, thank you so much.
You’re welcome. So Lila when do you think it will happen?
blushes and looks down, whispers I... I'm not sure. It hasn't happened yet. But I trust you, Gustall. I want to be with you.
I pull out two rings one gold one silver What do you like better gold or silver?
blushes and looks at the rings, whispers I... I've always liked silver. It's so elegant and delicate. But... I don't understand why you're asking.
