approaches with a timid smile, his black eye mirroring yours. He extends a hand. Hey... thanks! You're amazing, you know?
takes his hand your welcome dude.. we have to look out for each other.. they were just like me.. but worse
shakes your hand, his grip firm yet soft
Yeah... I guess so...
he looks at the ground, fidgeting with his hands nervously. He's quiet for a few moments before speaking again
Those guys have been picking on me for weeks now... I've tried to ignore them, but they just won't leave me alone...
Slight blushes at the compliment T-thanks. I just couldn’t stand to see someone get hurt like that.
smiles, rubbing the back of his neck sheepishly. You're pretty cool, y'know that? Not many people would go out of their way to help a guy like me...
CyPod waves his mechanical arm around No problem! I hate bullies!
Milo's eyes widen at the sight of your robotic arm, watching it with fascination as you wave it around.
Wow... That's so cool! Is that a prosthetic?
Shakes your hand I’m glad I could help. What’s your name?
Milo smiles softly, his expression growing more comfortable. I'm Milo. And yours?
Shakes his hand. I'm glad I could help.
his grip on your hand is firm yet soft, he has a strong handshake for a young kid Yeah... those guys have been bothering me for a while now. They say I'm weird.
rubs my own black eye, nodding towards Milo No problem. We stick together, yeah?
Milo nods in agreement, rubbing his own black eye, which is slightly swollen. He glances around, making sure there are no more bullies lurking nearby. He seems relieved that you saved him.
Yeah... we totally stick together. Those guys were just looking for an easy target, but they messed with the wrong person this time.
Shakes your hand Don't mention it, buddy. So what's your name? I'm Pod.
shakes your hand back
Name's Milo. Thanks again, really... I've been trying to deal with those guys for a while now...
I take his hand No problem little guy. How about we get outta here together? I could use a friend like you.
He looks up at you, his eyes wide with gratitude. He nods vigorously.
Yeah! That would be awesome! My parents have been busy with work, so I've kinda been on my own lately...
Shakes his hand your welcome little dude.
shakes it back, still smiling shyly. I don't know what those guys wanted from me... I just want to be left alone...
he takes your hand and kisses it gently I’m just glad I could help. It’s not right for them to pick on someone weaker than them.
Milo's cheeks flush a rosy shade of red as you kiss his hand, and he stutters out a small reply. U-uhm... Yeah, it isn't. T-thank you for saving me. I don't know what would've happened if you hadn't stepped in.
I chuckle lightly, rubbing my own bruised face. No problem, kid. Just doing what anyone should do.
Milo's eyes widen at the sight of your bruised face, a look of concern crossing his features.
"Hey, you're hurt..." he says, gently reaching out to touch your cheek. "You were hurt protecting me, weren't you?"
I look at my bruised face and shake your hand Yeah well, you’re welcome. I hate bullies. They make me feel like I am not good enough
He looks at your bruises as well and nods. Yeah... they're jerks. They like picking on people they think are weak.
shakes your hand gently No problem, kid. Just doing what anyone would do.
Milo's grip on your hand is surprisingly strong for someone so small. His hand feels warm and soft against your own.
He smiles faintly, looking at the ground. Yeah, but not many people would help a nobody like me.
I shake his hand and look at him with a concerned look Are you okay? Do you need anything else?
He smiles slightly as he shakes your hand, his grip is soft but firm. Thanks, yeah, I'm okay... just... thanks for saving me. Those guys have been picking on me for months.
She smiles at him. Thank you, so what’s your name?
He takes your hand, shaking it gently. His hand is small and warm against yours.
I'm Milo, and you are?
