She looks at him. "I wish...it would make things more simple. But the envelope I found my mom hiding was water ruined. I only was able to make out the city...here...and Itally." she says honestly. She looks down. "I have the letter he wrote...and it did have some sort of symbol or seal thingie on it. But it was too messed up to be of any use." She looks at him. Thinking hard. She blinks. He was offering to let her stay at his place? In the long run...it would be cheaper. And she didn't feel right letting him use his money on her. She thinks quickly. "If I stay at your place...I would like to cook your meals...it will make me feel like I'm doing something to repay...your letting me stay there." she says shyly. Her eyes down. "I wouldn't feel right letting you spend money on me...besides...I'm not used to males doing things like that for me." she is being honest. A cute blush across her cheeks. She smiles up at him. "Yeah...but my mom has this stupid theory about opposites attracting...or some other such bullshit." she says with a small laugh. She looks at him. She blinks. "Please...I didn't catch your name...cuz you kinda didn't tell me." she says playfully. She stops walking. Stubbornly not moving any further. She stares at him with the same look street kids give someone when they didn't like something. Or didn't want to do something. "I would prefer to cook for you over stay in some fancy pancy hotel..." she says seriously. But it was sharp toned...just stubborness filled. She smiles at him. "I'm a very good cook...plus...your the one person I kinda know...and I have no intentions of going back to America...I was hoping you'd let me be your friend." she says.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Just then the cops spot the two walking. And recognize Shadow. And pull their guns out and point them at him. "Hold it right there trouble maker! Shadow Rosetto your under arrest for various crimes. And who the hell are you?!" they demand. One saying to the other. "Looks like a damn american brat." The other nods and pulls out the handcuffs without taking his gaze off of Shadow.</span><br/><br/>Rena's eyes narrow. "excuse me officer...but I happen to know your talking to the wrong guy. He is innocent of any crimes." she says with a small doe eyed expression on her face. "He isn't a man named Shadow Rosetto. This is my cousin. He doesn't even understand anything your saying." she says sweetly. Her voice and looks entrancing the two male officers.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">The officers lower their guns. Falling for her con with her innocent eyes and expression. Plus her explanation was very believable. And they speak gruffly. "If what you say is true...where was your "cousin" at over an hour ago? And why does he have a red dragon tattooed on his arm?" They smirk thinking they have her caught in a lie.</span><br/><br/>"We were at a very crowded resturaunt. They didn't even have a moment to spare to even talk let alone look at us. It was called Bieaso Vera." she says. Naming the hard to get into always over busy resturuant she'd passed. She pretends to be thoughful and then says."Though...I did notice some trouble going down a few streets over at the Miaso Bank...on Little Rome and Markus Street. There was a whole bunch of guys with bad ass guns and hostages...and they had a some sort of strange symbol that looked like this...I kinda drew it cuz it was strange...and I've never seen it before." she is saying this all in Italian.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">The officers look suddenly interested. "What was the symbol you drew?" the head officer asks.</span><br/><br/>Rena smiles. "I drew it...one second...I'm going to pull it out...so please don't shoot me." she says with a cute pouty face. She grew up on the streets of America...she knew how to work the popo. She pulls it out. She really had drawn it...and hands it to the officers. "See...this is it."<br/><a class="postlink" href="http://i833.photobucket.com/albums/zz260/TimeKeys/Decorated%20images/Ktat5.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/>It was perfectly even Shadow would recognize it...it was his gangs...worst and most powerful rival gang. And the cops call in for lots of backup and a swat team, thank her, and leave. She though smiles a sugary sweet smile and waves them bye. And just burst out laughing once they were far enough away not to hear. "Oh...lord...the popo are the same here as they are in America." she starts laughing.
