The marketplace buzzed with murmurs as people watched them retreat.
Some scoffed, others shook their heads in disdain.
“Cowards,” someone muttered.
“Can’t even handle a little pushback,” another chuckled.
The old man let out a deep sigh of relief.
Trouble had been avoided, for now.
He turned to face the crowd, bowing slightly in gratitude.
“Thank you, everyone.
Truly, thank you so much.” People waved off his gratitude, offering reassuring smiles.
“It was nothing, old man!” “They were just barking dogs.” “You stood your ground well.” Despite the warmth of their support, a shadow of worry lingered in his heart.
He knew those people would come back.

What was he supposed to do now?
As he stood there, lost in thought, a small hand tapped his arm.

The old man blinked at her.
