She didn't know these people and was not about to let them be pushing her around. She stared at the newcomers, determining how hard it would be to take any of them if necessary. A girl approached first, her sundress and braided hair gave her the appearance of a rich white American girl. Not the type of girl Shalonna was about to be making friends with. Next came a boy in a Letterman jacket, he was cute, though likely to be a dumb jock. Lastly came a scrawnier boy who looked like he'd been walking for hours. With the newcomers assessed, she finally found her voice.

Anna looked up to see the dark skinned girl standing on the front steps, staring at her. Not wanting to be rude, she replied quickly "Hello, I'm Annaleigh" she said. The girl didn't reply, but was staring at something just off to the right of Annaleigh's shoulders. A stick snapped behind her and she turned to see two boys, also close to her age approaching the premise.

"I thought it was strange..." she continued "But here I am anyway!" she blushed and smiled awkwardly.</span>
