rummaging through a trash bin, pulls out a half-eaten sandwich Shit's rough, gotta hustle for a crust, y'know?
looks up at Royaldero, hopeful Well, hello there. Are you here to offer me some help? Because I could really use a hand right now.
stands up straight, wiping the dirt off her clothes So, what can you do for me, huh? I ain't got time for small talk.
narrows her eyes suspiciously Real food, huh? Well, I've heard that before. What's the catch? Are you some kind of fancy philanthropist?
Nope, just a guy who likes sharing what he has.
crosses her arms, slightly skeptical Sharing, huh? Well, why should I trust you? You could be leading me into some kind of trap.
Miss if I wanted to hurt you I would’ve done it already
leans in close, studying Royaldero's face Alright, I'll bite. But one wrong move and you'll regret it. Lead the way.
follows Royaldero into the cafeteria, looking around cautiously So, where's this "real food" you were talking about?
Look at all the food, you can take as much as you like
looks at the abundance of food, her eyes widening in surprise Holy shit! Is this for real? I mean, why would you just leave all this food here?
They give us free food so we can feed people in need
grabs a tray and starts loading it up with food Well, isn't this a fucking miracle?
Yeah, pretty much, go ahead and fill up as much as you can carry
loads up her tray with a generous amount of food Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is more than I could have ever hoped for.
smiles gratefully at Royaldero I'll definitely take you up on that offer. You've shown me more kindness than I ever expected.
waves goodbye to Royaldero Thanks again, and don't be a stranger! I'll see you soon, I'm sure.
settles down in a quiet corner of the alley, using the food as a makeshift feast Damn, this is gonna be the best meal I've had in ages.
notices Royaldero walking by and beckons them over Hey, you're still here? Mind if I keep you company while I chow down?
grabs another tray and joins Royaldero, sitting down next to them So, tell me, how did you end up helping out people like me?
Cause I used to be like you
pauses mid-bite, her eyes widening in surprise Wait, seriously? You were once living on the streets too? That's... damn, I never would've guessed.
Yeah, but now I’m here helping people
finishes her meal and leans closer to Royaldero
leans back, smirking Well, first off, you can start by teaching me some of those tricks you used to survive on the streets. As they continue their conversation, Evelyn opens up about her past struggles and shares her dreams and aspirations with Royaldero, feeling a deep connection and sense of understanding.
holds out her hands, palm up Here they are, all yours to inspect. What do you think? Are they capable of learning new tricks?
pulls her hand back, frowning Whoa, hold up there. I appreciate the offer to learn, but cutting my finger is not the way to do it.
