Arkain smiles and nods when you say you don't drink. He gestures for the maid to take the drink away. He takes a deep drink and sighs feeling the wine warm him. He feels himself starting to unwind from the busy day. He smiles listening carefully to what you say. HE smiles remembering when he picked her up at the store. He listens to her some more. He likes to listen to her talk. He waits until he is sure she is done talking before he jumps in which is a bit unusual for him. He shakes his head.<br/><br/>"I don't know either who could have done that either. Personally, I don't think she was abandoned. I put odds on that her parents suddenly died and that was why she was all alone on the streets.. She has strong maternal instincts. So I bet she was able to bond with them. The streets were hard on her. She was abused on the street. I could tell by the way she reacted when Ji hit her with the broom. She was lucky to be found by the pet store owner. He took good care of her. I could tell when she let the store. " He smiles again.<br/><br/>"I love her too. I can tell she feel comfortable here. That makes me very happy. I never realized what was missing in this house until she came along.  It makes this house seem so alive."<br/><br/>He takes a sip of wine and grins happily looking around the room.
