Oligor sat on the sofa across from me. He peered at my face intently from across the table that separated us.

I was happy to let him stare. I bet he was thinking about his friend.

Oligor seemed to be as weepy as ever, because sure enough, his eyes started welling with tears again as he gazed at me. I used this chance to stare back at him and realized that he seemed to be crying more out of happiness than sadness.

“Oligor, why are you happy-crying?” I tilted my head.

“Because I am happy. Serafina, your existence is a miracle to me. I never had any children who looked like Luntia. But not only do you look exactly like her, you have my eyes too. I’ve always pined for a link between the two of us, and now you’re here.”

I tilted my head further, confused about what he was saying. “But aren’t you, like, ten? Why are you talking about having kids when you’re a kid yourself? Although I do have golden eyes like you, yeah.”

“Yes…the exact same.”

With a tearful smile, Oligor reached across the table and clutched my hand tightly. I could see he was happy because I looked like his friend while having his eyes—it was like the best of both worlds, I guess?

“Serafina, are you happy? Nothing is troubling you? I’d do anything for you. But…I don’t have much strength left. I was planning to let my body fade away and flow back into the world.”

I was stunned at that last bit. Moments ago, he casually told me his name, and now he was saying he’d help me out with just as much ease. That was very nice of him and all, but why was he talking about not having much strength left when he was still just a kid?

“What? Your body is weak? Remind me to get you a get-well-soon present next time I visit! Is there anything you like eating?”

“Let’s see… I’ve always been partial to that sweet red fruit Luntia gave me once a long time ago.”

“Okay, so you want a sweet red fruit! I’ll bring you some next time.” Then a sudden thought occurred to me. “Is this your house, Oligor? Why’d you build it here? Does this Luntia person come by to visit?”

Oligor smiled merrily. “Ha ha, you’re so full of questions. You’re just as talkative as her…although I never really understood what she was saying. She was a human girl, but she couldn’t speak the spirit language like you can.”

Then his gaze fell.

“Luntia doesn’t come by anymore,” he said sadly. “I’ve come to terms with that, but there are times when I remember her, and I get lonely. I built the palace in this area because I have plenty of happy memories with her here.”

“You must be a really strong spirit to build such a marvelous place,” I said. If he was weak now, the palace was proof that he must have been super strong in the past.

Just then, Seven gave me a startled look.
