Eventually, James and Esme caught up with the group as they walked down the large country road."Is it just me, or is that Gypsy an absolute ride?" Michelle asked
"Michelle! You cannot say that!" Erin scowled
"What?" Michelle frowned
"They're called Travellers now" Erin informed her clueless friends "You can't say Gypsy any more, it's insulting"
"Is it?" Michelle asked
"Yes" Erin replied "Yes, it is"
Everyone stared at the lads in confusion as they walked closer and closer to them.
"Who are they?" James asked
"They're just people, James, they're just people that are exactly like us" Erin responded
"Except different" Orla added
"Yes" Clare nodded
"No!" Orla shouted "That's actually racist, Orla"
"No, it's not" Orla argued "They are different"
"They're not" Erin shook her head
"They live in caravans" Esme said
"I wish I lived in a caravan" Orla said
"Me too" Michelle said "Caravan's are class".
Erin sighed, glaring at her friends angrily.
"Could you all stop being so racist, please?" Erin said
"I'm a bit scared of them" James said
"Me too" Esme said
"Is that racist?" James asked
"Yes" Erin said "Very much so"
"Is "gypsy" even a race?" Esme asked
"Traveller!" Erin shouted
Suddenly; the travellers began to walk over to the group, smiles plastered on their faces.
"How'ya, girls?" The traveller asked
"Well, hello, there" Michelle said
"Hi" Esme said
"Good afternoon, Sir" Clare said.
The group continued walking, speeding up with every step that they took.
"Sir? What the fuck, Clare?" Michelle spat
"Hey! Hold on!" The traveller shouted
"What does he want?" Clare asked
"I dunno" Erin said
"I'm talking to you!" The angry traveller shouted
"Just walk on" Erin said
