Once Tanya had recovered from the shock of this unexpected kind gesture, she vehemently agreed to go with him.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3SkZQN851

Once at this strange man's house Tanya decided to ask a few questions that had been nagging at her. "Um, pardon the suddenness of the question, but who exactly are you?" Tanya asked, quite nervous.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6LEK0k2R3
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhZXsW5o24
The man frowned slightly, turning from the window to face Tanya; he let out a sigh and spoke. "Who I am matters little but if you must know my name is Father Gascoigne."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhymKqJJSb
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRdPgRKsZ3
Tanya cringed slightly, she thought to herself, Father, huh? Did I really just get help from a religious man? Isn't this supposed God my enemy? Tanya swallowed her pride for a second, figuring that self-preservation was more important for the time being. "So…?" Tanya started to say.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVMqoBtQMT
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2ubLXh1Bt
"I may hold the title of Father, but I would hardly call myself religious, not anymore at least, not after the scourge that the Healing Church released."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DL0vzH92l
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXncfd3x4Ix
Tanya was dumbfounded; it was almost as if he read her mind. "How did you know what I was going to ask?"1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq9NNBEahN
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3FMmJoyp7
Gascoigne grinned slightly. "I guess you could say that I have a lot of insight." Tanya was left speechless, just then Gascoigne looked at Tanya with a concerned look. "I think it's time I got you some warm clothes."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaeVyk03DH
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1OO9V6NOc
A minute later, Gascoigne found a dress that was about Tanya's size. Gascoigne frowned slightly when he looked at it, as if it brought back some sad memory. Tanya knew it wasn't her business, but curiosity had gotten the best of her and she decided to ask. "Did you have a daughter?"1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCMon2XUc1
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86qg0D3Mvr
The question came out blunt and awkward, so much so that it actually made her cringe a little bit. Tanya was about to apologize for being so blunt when he spoke up. "Annabelle. Her name was Annabelle."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZx9cRUn7KE
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT3z1prClMD
Tanya already felt bad for asking this much, but she just couldn't keep her damn mouth shut no matter how hard she tried. "What happened to her?"1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkext1yf1AL
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN108odSJ9n
Gascoigne seamed angered by this. "That is none of your damn business!"1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25SPI03gAn
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVKBBHlNiV
Tanya recoiled in shock, she knew that it was not her place to ask these things, and that the way she was asking was not exactly polite. In fact, the way Tanya was speaking it came off more like an interrogation than a question out of genuine concern. Tanya let out a deep breath and gave a polite bow to Gascoigne.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2kr0hn2MN
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLzCsRxr8b
"I am very sorry for asking such a rude question."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59yFZWUe9m
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavgDwj3jA4
At this Gascoigne seemed almost embarrassed. "No, I'm sorry. I overreacted, I should have realized that you had no idea that you were touching on a sore subject."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxwg3F9XA7
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshf01Cx2xU
Tanya was somewhat confused; she had realized it was a sore subject that is why she cringed almost as soon as the question left her lips. This man was by far the kindest that Tanya had encountered in any life. Gascoigne decided to break the awkward silence by continuing where he had left off. "She died, eaten by rats actually. There was not even a body to bury, only a ribbon. I feel I must tell you the reason I brought you hear, you remind me of Annabelle."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4aCLMKUkO
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6Lvr29GUl
Tanya was surprised by this revelation, but decided that the reason why he didn't leave her to die on the streets was unimportant, after all Tanya could not risk dying again. She was just grateful to be out of the rain.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMwI8QISVe
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzL84XCX5F
After a few minutes of awkward silence, Tanya decided to put on the dress that was generously offered. No matter how much she detested dresses, it was sure as hell better than staying in those soaking wet rags she was wearing.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oHpdx2x2i
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5mUoXuCLL
After Tanya came out of the bathroom, she noticed that Gascoigne was no longer in the living room. She was about to ask her self where he could have gone off to, but before she could she heard some metal pots banging from the kitchen. It was at that moment Tanya realized the bleeding obvious. Of course, he was fixing dinner. Tanya sat down. I mean, it would be rude to leave before dinner, she thought to herself. In actuality, she was just so damn hungry that she couldn't care any less about being polite. The thought of refusing this meal never even crossed her mind.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47Y1K1Yll0
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsisIABZkb
Tanya caught a whiff of the food, and she could not silence the growls her stomach made. Even if her mouth would not ask for this food, her stomach was begging. It was a savory aroma, something foreign; it had been so long since she had a decent meal that she nearly didn't recognize the smell of fresh homemade lasagna. Now, if it weren't for how hungry she was, she might have turned it down or even made him insist, but this was a serious case of self-preservation above all else.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYGHihU6pu
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxoBuxjdOz
Gascoigne emerged from the kitchen with a heaping pot of lasagna, and set it on the table. "Are you going to just sit there and stare at me or are you going to eat? I know you couldn't have eaten recently, having lived on the streets, also given how thin and well, sickly you look."1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxPNcZ1mZO
1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEhvczMgl5
And with that Tanya and Gascoigne enjoyed their lasagna together, although Tanya probably enjoyed it more.1468Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbopGUMJSC
