What seems like a static charge shocked her with her pulling back from me, in guilt, I expressed my apology,"Oh, I am sorry for exerting a static charge, I hope that did not insult yo-" The girl put a finger on my lips, encouraging me to stop talking. The girl had a caring smile on her face which is quite strange mainly because people do not seem to smile anymore. She had an oversized sweater with ripped jeans and short hair.

Nice to meet you." I just stared at her with a ruffled eyebrow. "Well, what are you doing here?" The girl blurted. , "Oh, I just desired to view the water, it appears to me that you require some assistance, notably with an emotional remedy."The girl gestured me to come to the rail for viewing the river, and so I did," What is the use."

I tapped the rail a couple of times and watched the water flow then answered her, " The use of living is to spread the sensation of life, Meaning in a biological standard.

But many people call me Triffle." And I walked away praising about how that was my first interaction with a person (Not Castell) that was not awkward.
