2 - Doctor

Beatrice knocked on the door, and turned to smile at you. Surprisingly enough, her smiles calms you, so you try and relax.

The door opens to reveal a woman with dark hair tied up. Her face changes into a smile when she spots Beatrice, and speaks in a friendly tone, "Beatrice! Nice to see you! How have you been? Come in, come in!" The woman opens the door to make way.

Beatrice smiles to the woman, "Hello Carla! I've been good, thank you! It's just that I came to see Dr. Jaeger. Is he home?"

"He is! But oh my, are you feeling sick? Is working non-stop making you stressed again? How many times I've told you, woman!"

"No, no! It's not me this time— uhm, how can I explain it..." Laughing quietly, Beatrice turns to see you, and then moves a step on the right so Carla can see you. Beatrice pats your hair, "this little guy needs a check up."

You try to hide behind her leg, looking carefully at the dark haired woman, who's eyes are widened in surprise.

"Honey, don't be rude. Say hi." Beatrice tries to make you greet the woman, speaking to you gently.

"Hi." You only say, not feeling comfortable at all.
"Hello there," she greeted back with a smile, regaining her composure. She looks at Beatrice again, raising an eyebrow, "I thought you didn't have more kids?"

"It's... complicated. Maybe I can explain inside...?" Beatrice nervously smiles, and Carla only shakes her head jokingly with a smile plastered on her face. She makes way for you, allowing both of you came in.

The house looks cozy— there's a small kitchen and table where a man sits with a journal? on the table. He seems to be writing something in it, but when he spots you, he stops his actions and stands up to greet both of you.

"Beatrice, nice to see you again." He smiles and then spots someone hiding behind Beatrice's leg, "and who may this be?"

"Hello Grisha. Well... I have to explain first, may I?"
Beatrice then proceeds to explain everything that happened. When he found you returning with the scouts —which did change Grisha's face drastically for a second—, what they said about how they found you, your headaches and the lack of memories you had. Carla and Grisha listened carefully, but you could tell the man did look... strange. His calm aura he once had changed to one cold and tensed. His expression hardened, looking deep in thought.

Strangely enough, something deep inside you told him he was... good. As if a low voice in the depths of your head whispered to you, telling you things you should hear.

But just as you meet his serious gaze, the whispering disappeared. Trying to hide behind Beatrice, you averted his gaze. It didn't matter, because he crouched to be at your height.
"Hello. I'm Dr. Grisha, it's nice to meet you. Beatrice told me everything— you can trust me. Can you please look at me?"

You didn't want to look at him— his aura changing intimidated you. Unfortunately, Beatrice tried to push you to talk, and spoke, "come on, dear. Don't be rude, Dr. Grisha is going to help you."

Beatrice's words motivate you enough to look at him in the eyes, and when you do, you can catch the change his eyes suffered when he looked at your eyes. His eyebrows raised and his eyes slightly widened— his whole body froze for a couple of seconds. But he composed himself once again, nodding to himself and stands back up.
"His eyes are... different, right? Never... seen them before."

"They are pretty unique— I'm telling you, this kid is special." Beatrice whispered the last sentence, as if she was telling a big secret. You didn't show it, but her comment quite warmed you inside. "So, Grisha, can you check him? I haven't seen any injuries on him, but I can't be sure."
