I walked up to kiri when she was sitting in the sand. Her family was apparently done moving things around.

She did seem a bit sad indeed, "hello?" I said quietly in a nice way. From what i said it looked like she got scared a little bit. "Oh i am sorry, did i scare you?" I asked.

" Oh yes, i am ok, hi!" She answered.
" Are you sad? What all happened? My english is not good so i don't understand much what your parents said." I asked.
" No not really, i miss my friend. My home. My old bed. I mean, it's beautiful here but i miss my old forest home." She answered.

I could relate to that if i was her, it would be a nightmare to see war with your eyes. I have indeed sort of seen it, but i was only a few months old.

"I am sorry what happened to you, do you like swimming?" I asked. Maybe if we would swim she would be a bit more happy atleast.

"Yes! I really do!"

And as soon she said that we spend to whole evening learning to swim, but she was already a natural talent.

We had a fantastic evening, and at the end we did indeed end up have a sort of friendship. I've almost never really made friendships, i had friends with the wild life. Those atleast understood me!

I was eating my dinner in the tent, it was very nice as always. But the whole dinner time my mom was saying how she didn't like that other mother.

"Y/n you didn't talk to her, did you?" She suddenly asked me. I was kinda shocked, i didn't want her to be disappointed in me or be more mad, so i did have to lie for this one time. "Of coarse not mother."

As i finished, i always would sit on the higher rocks on the beach enjoy the night's warm wind.

"Mom, dad, may i leave?" I asked, "yes, goodnight my daughter" my dad answered.

I walked out the tent and it was not very far from my favorite relax place. My with  bare feet walking thru the sand just enjoy what i am doing. I would make jewelry in my free time, like now.

I sat on the rock, and began to make bracelets out of shells and pearls i found today.

With the warm wind on my back i did had the feeling of being watched, i know that feeling damn well when i have it.

I always try to ignore it, because in most cases its just wild life or random people.

But this time it was different

I turned around to look, *crack*.
There was definitely someone watching me, good or bad.

" Hello? Someone there? "  I said, so if it was rotxo he knew that it was a joke for the 10.000th times. I can get easily irritated by people like rotxo, and then i definitely can show my other side.

I turned back around, finishing my bracelet, making a final knot in it... And then..

"Hello!" A boyish voice said while putting their hand on my shoulder. Out of all confusion, nervous, scared feelings mixed in one i turned around.

But not in a nice way, in a quick turn i picked out my knife and ready to fight.

But quickly after that i knew i was false alarm.

"Wow wow wow! Calm! I won't do anything to you!" He said.

I took a extra good look at his face, he was definitely shocked and scared from the quick reaction i did.

His left hand was infront of him, in the case i would attack him.

But, it was...... HIM?

"Sorry i scared you like that, i wanted to say hello!" He said, it was the visitor boy.
"Visitor boy?" I said accidentally out loud.

" Oh wow that's a nice name, thanks!" He answered, i standed up straight and put my knight away.

"Sorry i am very bad at english.." i said, hoping he would understand. The impression on his face did indeed look like he understood.

He came a bit closer to me, but it was a small rock.

"I understand, i am neteyam, nice to meet you!" He said sticking his hand out to shake.

I look in confusion, i don't know what he means with his hand. What does he want me to do with it??

I touched his palm with my finger, he laughed at me.

I looked him straight in the face in confusion. "You can shake my hand! That is what it means!" He said.

I took my hand and placed it against his hand, he took my hand tight and shaked it up and down.

"My name... is.. y/n" i tried saying in english. "Oh come on, you don't need to try, just speak na'vi with me..y/n." He answered.

I was EXTREMELY surprised he wasn't interested in my beautiful magical goddess sister.

He sat on the rock, i looked at him for a few seconds before he.. pulled on my hand to sit next to him.

I think i was blushing to hardest i've ever did in my whole life right now.
We made deep eye contact for a good few seconds again.

"So, you are the Chiefs daughter?"
He asked, " yes, why are you asking?"
"Oh nothing, i wanted to thank you for helping us out"
"Oh don't worry about it, it's no big task"
While we were kinda introducing eachother we saw tsireya walking on the beach, obvious taking the attention of that other boy. Who is apperantly Netayam's little brother.

"Thats tsireya, she's perfect" i said.
"Yeah she is indeed pretty.." he answered. I don't know what happened to me, but i was jealous. Deeply jealous, he wasn't supposed to like her if he was talking to me!!

Wait, am i just really jealous right now, this isn't nice. Is this..... Catching feelings?

"I am joking around with you, what did you make there?" He said while pointing his finger at my just finished bracelet.
I didn't understand what he was saying but i think it was something with my bracelet.
"Oh this? Oh i make alot of these.... Here, you can have it." I said,

maybe in this way i could start a friendship.
