Avean pulled her legs up to her chest, feeling a sinking in her chest.
"Just this man...he's been following me." she said, her eyes glaring at the translation book in front of her.

"Okay, is that all?" David inquired with the quill in his mouth. He was flipping through the book now looking for anything he could add to his notes. Once he was finished, he closed that book and opened another and started looking through it's contents as well.

"No..." she mumbled, flipping a page in her book.

"Please continue then." he told her. He closed this book as well. He then continued the process over and over again. He finally found a book that he thought had some useful information and started taking notes from it as well.

Avean sighed. "He...he-he."
She couldn't get anything but slurred words out of her mouth. It was hard to talk about so she tried again.
"He uh...he"

David looked up at her when she started slurring her words. "He what?" he inquired. Ink was dripping off the tip of his quill and back into the bottle that he held over.

"He just hurt me." she said, avoiding his face.

"All he did was hurt you." he replied questioningly, "Did anything else happen?" He turned back to his research and then continued again. He made a mistake and quickly scratched it out and started again on a new line.

Avean felt a tear fall down her cheek. She didn't answer, hoping he would get it without her having to tell him.

David lifted his head and saw her expression. He then wiped the tear away with his finger. "I understand." he told her, "I won't let that happen to you again. You may stay at my house if you wish."

Avean felt something over come her. She lunged forward, hugging him.

He was a bit thrown off by this and dropped his quill on the parchment. He then held her in his arms and patted her on the back. "It's going to be okay." he told her as he looked up at the ceiling, "I won't let anyone else harm you."

Avean pulled back slightly, feeling foolish. Another tear rolled down her cheek, her eyes on her hand. Avean tried with all of her might not to look at him.

David wiped the tear away like he did the last one. He then looked at her. "What did you do with the money I gave you?" he asked kindly.

Avean took his hand and laid it flat. She then reached in her pocket, pulling out his pouch.
"I don't want it...I can't take from someone." she said, laying it in his hand.
