It had happened the first week of his break.

Upon a strong feeling of hunger, he had decided to go outside in search of a fast food place.

Upon opening the door to leave his room,he could notice someone standing in front of the door adjacent to his.

Silky ginger  hair, emerald like eyes, complemented by freckles was the sight he was encountered with.

" Hi", was the only thing he said.

She had been his apartment neighbour for a while. He had the occasion to see her and others sometimes when he went outside.

A cardboard box was standing at her feets.

He started to close the door of his home, when she finally started waving back. She was responding to his salutation from earlier.

" Yo."

Upon doing the final turn of his key to finally lock the door, he noticed she was kicking the box inside her room.

He didn't pay much attention to it after that. He finally took it to the stairs. In prevision of the rain that was announced he had taken an umbrella with him.

The rain started pouring. He opened up the umbrella before going outside.
Between the time of opening up the umbrella and making sure he had everything on him for what he was about to do, sounds could be heard behind him.

The steps had gotten closer.

He didn't pay any mind to them and so started walking. It didn't take long before the sounds got closer to the point of sounding like they were by his side.

He looked to the right. It was the same girl from before.

" Excuse me", she said assuming a questioning motion.

" Yes?"

" I'm new to this area, I only moved up recently, can you say to me where the nearest Kentucky is?"

He found it out that they were basically trying to go to the same place . She was waiting for his answer while the sound of her stomach betrayed her impatience to hear it.

He wondered about it for one second before explaining to her.

" Maybe we can go together,I was planning on going there too."

Some shine had sparked in her eyes. She couldn't wait to get her hands on a tasty meal.

" Woohoo!", she screamed.

He didn't really understand where all her excitement came from.

The hyperactive girl suddenly stopped to ask him a question. As he watched as she asked, he was blessed by a smile he could only describe as angelic.

" I'm Camila", she said,radiating a smile behind the object protecting her from the rain.

" Sykkuno."

She seemed surprised.

" Is that your real name?"

" Of course not."
