Zero looks at her wrists. Flushing a bit. "He did...but...I fixed it." She says in a mysterious yet puzzling way. Her wrists still sore. "He hurt my wrists. They were going to bruise. So I altered the matter to take away the bruising." She was speaking in a barely audible voice. She shakes her head. "Most of what he was talking about or asking I didn't understand." She says truthfully. Looking up at him and smiles a bit. "You'll think it weird..." She says softly. The wind blowing her white strands around. Every so often revealing the slanted -Z- birthmark that was on her forehead. She looked at him. "I wouldn't be...if you hadn't helped me." She says softly. "He was scaring me. I don't even know what I did to make him upset. He asked me to go somewhere. All I said was no." She was shaking a little bit but it was starting to ease out. Looking up at him and really didn't notice he was staring. "Mother said to be polite to people. That nothing is worth fighting someone for. Not when there is ways to be peaceful about it. I was polite even when I said no." She looked at the sky. "I don't think I was wrong for saying no. I didn't understand most of what he was saying or wanting. I was being polite by hearing him out...he just got made at a simple word."<br/><br/>She looks back at him. "Where I am from people do not get violent because someone tells them no. People rarely ever get violent back home. We are peaceful people and deal with words not violence. The word no is respected and not challenged. It was so confusing that he argued with me. He was just confusing me. What is baseball?" She asks. Looking entirely clueless. "Whatever baseball is we don't have it back home." Shaking her head a bit. Looking down at the ground. Saying nothing for a moment longer. Then looks up at him smiling.<br/><br/>His face turned red like her own and she tilted her head. Giggling at his words. "Your welcome." She says politely. It was a normal thing to her for something like that to be thanked. Her home town was beyond backwater. It made Amish look modern. They weren't much less modern than Amish but still less. She looked around again. "This place is so different from where I am from. It is new and exciting."<br/><br/>She looked at him and smiles. "Your name is so different. It is so unique and nice. I like it." She says softly. Blushing faintly. "I have never heard of anyone named Marc before." She really hadn't. There wasn't even a Bob where she was from. She blushed when she saw him forget to talk when she kissed his cheek. Giggling at his goofy grin. "Such a silly grin. I was thanking you. I felt you deserved a kiss for heroism of someone you don't even know." She pulls out a piece of paper (money) that she had found. "What is this? It has two zero on it. Plus other things. I have never seen anything like it before. Back home we exchange goods or work to buy things. I am guessing it is to buy stuff. I saw other people giving this and getting ice cream in exchange." She was very puzzled about it. The look of quizzicalness plain as day.<br/><br/>He looked at her with polite disbelief. Biting her lower lip. Had she somehow sounded stupid. "Back home...we use gold coins for currency sometimes. Mostly it is just wares, goods, or work." She looked awed by his explaination of those things. "Wow...things that can power themselves and still get people around like a carriage...that is amazing." She says. Her eyes wide and filled with delight and excitement. She was clearly learning new things. "Metal? Like what is used for scythes, shovels and hoes?" This puzzled her. Looking at him and smiles.<br/><br/>Surprising herself she threw her arms around his middle torso. Her cheek pressing against his chest. "Thank you!" She says. So happy he said she could. She only knew how to show this delight by hugging him. She let him go and blushed. Looking at him shyly. "Sorry...should've asked. Was just really excited I have a new friend already. That he is so good looking and willing to let me hang around him." She says shyly. "Will you lead the way. This is the first time I've been to a place like this. I lived way out in the middle of nowhere. Farmlands everywhere."
