I was walking home one day, and saw her sitting on the sidewalk, head down and crying. 

Her head was bowed, and I could see stark white hair, with a dash of black. 

Like any person with basic human decency I asked her if she was okay.  

When she saw me she quickly wiped away her tears, and sat up a bit straighter. ''I'm fine'' she said quickly, though she clearly was not. 

''You sure?'' i asked, concerned for her. ''Ím fine!'' she repeated almost angrily. I stood there, unsure what to do. 

The girl breathed out and said ''sorry, i overreacted'' she seemed calmer now, but i was afraid i made things worse. ''I was just trying to help'' i tried to say comfortingly, but it sounded rude. 

I held out my hand to help her up. She took it and hauled herself up, leaning on me for a moment.

''thanks for your concern, but i really am okay''’she said with a convincing smile, seemingly not thinking me rude at all, and actually feeling fine, but then i heard her mutter

 ''as if anyone would want to help me''

I became worried again, and resolved to try and cheer her up a little. 

''Oh how rude of me!'' she exclaimed, interrupting my train of thought.

''I haven't introduced myself yet! I'm Cakey'' she continued.  

''Im [yn]" I said "and , i'm sorry for saying this, but you don't really seem okay, is there anything i could do?'' 

Cakey seemed surprised by this, and mumbled

 ''Most people don't notice or care.'' She sighed.

'' yeah, I was actually feeling a bit down.'' my expression turned to concern.

''PTalking to you made me feel a little better though'' i blushed a little at this, but managed to hide it. "I'm glad your feeling better"

I prepared to take a leap.

"Could I walk you home?"

To my relief she smiled and said "sure"
