My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

When we met again, they seemed numb, like they had gotten used to the life here. They looked up at me and then closed their eyes again, as if I wasn't there. My heart ached instantly. I turned to look at Tiago and asked, "Why are they like this?"

I fell speechless for a moment, and despite my anger, I couldn't say a word.

I snapped, "Let them out!"
