I kick a rock ahead of me on the road when I notice the boy again. Or, actually, I notice a hat-wearing child dropping a bag that looks like it couldn't possibly be his own. I smirk, cos it makes me realize that servant didn't really bother to look far. Stupid.
It's none of my business though, so I don't alarm anyone. Instead I leave that bag lying in the dirt, and I walk to the sand where the boy is too. As I get nearer I realize that the boy looks suspiciously much like a girl instead. "You shouldn't have dropped it there." I tell her, standing beside her all of the sudden. "There was still someone looking for you."

I spin around when I hear the boy talk next to me. My eyes widden slightly. I swallow and my eyes dart over to the bag I dropped earlier. "... Don't tell.." I mumble, not wanting to get into trouble.. I was just.. hungr.y

I shrug, "It's not my bag." I tell her, so she'll know I don't have a reason to tell. I look at the food on the stand and realize again that I'm kinda hungry. I search my pockets for change so I can buy something.

I chew on my lip, looking at the boy, relieft that he wont tell anyone. I take one of the apples and hand it to him.. to make it up. I pay for the apple and look down at the little bit of money I have left.

I look at the girl and smirk, brushing the apple over my sleeve to make it shine. "You don't have to do that." I tell her. "I already said I wouldn't tell." I take a bite from the apple though. It's sour, and I like it. "I'm Jack." I say fullmouthedly, extending my right hand to introduce myself.

I look at his hand carefully for a moment before shaking it "Ana.." I tell him my name, feeling slightly weird since I don't think I ever talked to someone who goes to school. I know he does because I saw him near there earlier.

"Thanks." I say 'bout the apple, and I take another bite. When I munched and swallowed it I glance at her curiously. She's really thin and she's not tall, but now that I see her up close she doesn't seem that much younger anymore. Maybe one or two years, I guess? "So what are you up to, Ana?" I ask, as I sorta start walking again and assume she'll come along.

I feel slightly.. weird but tag along. "I.. don't know.. might help my parents later." I mumble. Normally I always have an answer for everything, though somehow he intimidates me. Especially when he asks me a question and doesn't start screaming at me or something like that. "Or.. nevermind" I look down at the ground and my bare feet. It is not like I should tell him I might steal more later

I glance at her sideways, and take another bite of the apple. "Wha' dye parents do?" I ask full-mouthedly, in sheer curiosity.

I take an apple out of the pocket of my pants and look at it before taking a bite. ".. my dad is a wheelmaker.." I tell him, glancing up at him from the corner of my eyes
