"Doesn't your Mother hold you or sing to you?" Yui found it hard to believe. Wasn't such a child very pitiful?
Unconsciously, a look of pity appeared in Yui's eyes. She shifted her position and moved closer to sit beside Nuo. "It's okay, if your Mother won't sing for you, I'll sing for you. I've listened to my Mother sing, so I can sing a little too."
Clearing her throat, her tender and crisp voice slowly began to resonate, soft as water. She clapped her small hands, her eyes sparkling with joy as she turned her face to smile at him.
"I was once the Lotus Maiden, with unspoken feelings like rain. If you see the tears of the lotus, do you know how much sorrow it holds?
I was once the Lotus Maiden, only giving my heart to you. Tonight, I sing for you, every line is a sad song.
I was once the Lotus Maiden, dancing for you day and night. How many things have I seen in this world? Only you and I truly understand each other.
I was once the Lotus Maiden, dreaming of being your poetic partner. May all lovers in the world one day become a couple.
I was once the Lotus Maiden, please remember this heartfelt wish. On the day when the lotus blooms abundantly, may each flower carry my blessings."
Her singing wasn't as beautiful as that of a songstress and even had some off-key notes, but he was still captivated by it. How could such a warm scene possibly belong to him?
Nuo fell into deep thought, not even realizing that Yui had stopped singing. She waved her chubby fingers in front of his eyes. "Benefactor? Benefactor? Are you back?"
Nuo jolted back to reality. The little girl squatting beside him had chubby cheeks, yet her contours were graceful, making it easy to see that she would grow up to be a beauty. Her eyes shone like stars, glowing brightly as if they could burn away the light of the world.
In his ears, the tender voice of the little girl still echoed. He said, "Yui, do you understand the meaning of this song?"
As soon as Yui heard him speak, she stumbled and fell, her eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at him. "You... you... called my name for the first time."
Is that so? Was it really the first time he had called her name? It seemed... to be the case. However, he couldn't understand why she was so happy. Isn't a name just something for people to call?
"Yes, Benefactor called my name, and I am very happy. I don't understand the lyrics' meaning, but since it's a song I sang for you, I should change the lyrics. It should be 'I was originally, Child of Rain.' Remember that..."
