"What's your name?"
"Orland."
"What do you want to be when you're grown up?"
"A fire fighter."
"Ooh. Then, I want you to promise me one thing."
*showing pinky finger*
"What promise??"
"Promise that, when I came here as an old man, I'll see you in your fire fighter's suit."
*silenced*
*nodded*
*he gazed at my finger and smiled*
*he took his pinky finger and clung it to mine*
*he gazed at my finger and smiled*
*he took his pinky finger and clung it to mine*
"When your house in on fire, I'll extinguish the fire!"
*he acted like a man holding that fire water hose, while pointing it high to the ceiling*
"Orland... want a hug?"
*he smiled shyly, but didn't decline my offer*
*pulled him into my embrace*
*pulled him into my embrace*

That hug lasted long. I know that deep inside, he's ready.When you have aim and vivid ambition, you're ready to take on everything.
