Bella #1
"Hmmmmm, delicious…."
She muttered, still half asleep. Opening her eyes, she saw one of these mobile stalls that were selling breakfast to the passerby. Coffee, hot chocolate, and fresh pastries, a real piece of heaven for someone like them. The problem was that she spent her last money on the poor hotdog and asking Sylas, who was still sleeping next to her, didn't seem right. Especially when he didn't even want to hide under her jacket with her.
She silently raised her feet and walked toward the stall and the elderly saleswoman that was selling her goods there. Well, elderly, she probably wasn´t even in her forties, but for Bella anyone older than 30 was basically old.
She made it through the queue, approaching the lady with a pleading smile.
“Could I get a coffee please?”
The woman a bit taller than Bella, looked down on her with color suddenly disappearing from her face.
“But of course…uhm…are you alright darling?”
That question confused the white-haired girl who for all that cold totally forgot, that she walked out from her last fight with a heavily bruised face as the long-haired criminal smashed her against the wall.
“Uhmmm, yeah…I mean I am freezing a bit, but that´s probably what you can expect from seeping out like this.”
The woman´s pale face suddenly became very caring.
“Poor thing, so you don´t have any parents? Are you here alone?”
Still confused, Bella shook her head.
“What? No, I am here with him!”
She pointed her finger at the sleeping Sylas provoking a sudden and unexpected rage in that woman.
“I see and is he the reason why you got hurt?”
Bella touched her bruised face thinking. Technically Sylas wasn´t much of a help in that fight, was that what the woman was talking about?
“Well…actually, he…”
But the saleswoman was already marching away from her stall.
“Don´t worry honey. Just stay here, I´ll take care of this.”
She growled, walking all the way to the sleeping Sylas before kicking him into the shin with all her might.
“LISTEN YOU ******** YOU THINK BEATING SOMEONE JUST BECAUSE SHE IS SMALL IS A FUN!”
As she yelled these words Bella froze in the place, with her face screaming: “I am sorry!”
