     The girl walked away, leaving the old man fall back asleep on the bench he was sitting on. She was about to cry, when she suddenly bumped into someone.

    "S-sorry..." She quickly apologized.

    "Oh, no. It's fine...What happened? Is everything okay? Did I really hit you that hard?!" The young man asked, panicking.

    The 17 year old girl was crying. The Man hugged her.

    "I'm so-rry... it's not yo-ur fault..." She blurted out.

    "Then what happened? If you don't mind me asking."

    She told him the entire story.

    "I know, I'm a crybaby..." She said, her selfesteem clearly nonexistent.

    "No, no. It's okay. You're just more sensitive."

     They kept on walking and talking to eachother. It didn't matter that there was a 7 year difference between them. They were still comfortable with eachother.

     "May I ask your name, pretty lady?" The man asked.

    The girl giggled and responded:

     "I'm Alexia, Fargow Alexia. What about you?"

    "Well, I am Mark Sengall. Nice to meet you." He flashed a smile.
