She took a step back after a moment, soon scanning the ground for her purse. Once she found it, it was soaked in grimy liquid.

He gave her his answer, "I'm nobody." He began to leave, hands in the pockets of his jeans.<br/><br/>Aris, surprised at his sudden departure, hurried after him, "Wait! I just wanted to thank you!
