"Ah, but the speeches help, don't they?" Weld said, sharing a playful smile. He instantly noticed that she seemed to be mesmerized by something and she soon told him that this was a place that had sentimental value to her; her old house, the one that she was living in before being abandoned. His smile faded. It seemed that she was still able to remember the house from such a young age when she was abandoned, "I won't stay in your way, but I'm not the one you should be asking," He pointed towards her heart, "The permission you should be asking for is from yourself," He said, sounding a bit cryptic, but what he meant was for her to ask herself if she was really ready for this. In truth, he was worried about her going towards that house, as for all he knew her own parents might even attack her. But, it was something that Valyssa needed to discover for herself, another obstacle for her to overcome.

"If you do decide to go in, I'll be close by," He reassured her.
