The Blessing of a Stranger

A Meet Up! Part 1

Riley's P.O.V.
I'm so glad to have met miss Carol! After being saved from freezing to death and before mister Whitty walked me home (though we had to go our separate ways halfway there) miss Carol gave me a phone and told me to give her a call anytime. I haven't really used it, but manage to add mister Tabi's and Agoti's phone numbers. Well...you see...I've been thinking about introducing them all to eachother for a while now, but was scared of asking any of them because...well...a few of them has trust issues...even I have trust issues. So...last week when I was over at mister Agoti's home, I manage to ask mister Agoti, and Tabi if I can introduce them to my other friends...I felt relieved when they said yes. I called miss Carol and asked her if I introduce her and Whitty to my other friends, she to said yes and stated there was someone she wanted to introduce to me too. Then the next day, Whitty called me unexpectedly asking if he could introduce me to a close friend of his...I said yes, he suggested meeting up at a basketball court. I talked to mister Solazar about this, of course he was against it...at first...but he claims that he trust me so he agreed, but under the condition that he comes along, and I agreed. So...today is the day! Super nervous on how this will go...I don't want to ruin any relationship nor hurt anyone...but I need to be brave and stop being a coward...but I can't help, but feel like something bad is about to go down. So here we are driving to the basketball court and parking outside the court, so it's me, mister Tabi, Agoti, Aldryx, and Solazar here today. As I got out, I noticed mister Whitty and miss Carol with two figures I've never seen before, mister Whitty noticed me and motioned the three of my arrival "Riley!! Over Here!!" miss Carol called out waving her hand in the air motioning me to come to them. I obeyed and went over to them and was pulled into a hug by miss Carol "I missed you! How you been?" she asked letting me go "Good..." I answered giving her a small smile, another small woman came up to us "Is this the kid you was taling about?" the woman asked "Yep! Riley this is my housemate, Sunday! Sunday this is Riley!" miss Carol beamed introducing us to eachother. Sunday stared at me for a second then gives me a kind smile "Well nice to meet you kiddo...I think we might get along just fine..." she said, I just nodded giving her a small smile in return. Mister Whitty came over to us with a tall robot, Whitty looked a bit nervous though he had his hood on "Riley this is a close friend of mine, Hex! Hex this is the kid I mentioned, this is Riley!" he introduced us to eachother. The rob-I mean Hex looked down at me with a smile "Greetings Riley! Whitty told me so much about you!" he said, I gave him the same response I gave Sunday. I heard the car door close behind me and soon mister Solazar, Agoti, Aldryx, and Tabi headed our way. There was an unsettling awkward silence between the two groups and they just stared at eachother, this made me nervous... mister Agoti cleared his throat breaking the silence "Hi! The name Agoti!" he introduced himself and extended his hand towards mister Whitty probably wanting to shake hands with him. Mister Whitty gave him a confused look before cautiously and slowly bringing his hand out "Whitty..." he introduced himself...reluctantly...
