[The Market] Peace. Love. Happiness (Clyde Sullins)

[Akahi]

71st Day of Summer "Think of the times when you shared those great moments with that special moments. Love that moment so much that you can never let go no matter how much you age. Then let happiness fill your soul and enrich your personality. No matter what people try to do never allow them to bring you down. War is something horrible and just plain wrong, violence is never the answer. Hate is something that lives inside of us at all times and will never go away. Sadness drowns us in the more sickening things in life." Akahi smiled at her little poem, how it flowed in so many ways. She loved to write, maybe she should become a story teller! Yes, that did sound good! Despite the fact she had no training what so ever, it was good to start now before she grew older. Age, such a horrible thing. Unless she was immortal she would love to be one, if there was such a thing. She didn't know anyone with that type of power, as if there was anything like that. Akahi had read immortality in her story book, this was fiction not non-fiction. Therefore it meant nothing was true, it was all fake. So why bother reading lies, when you can read something true? There were so many questions in the world that haven't been answered. Also are yet to be answered as technology and learning increases in some way. Most things were different around here than in story books. Life isn't a fairy tale because there is no such thing as happy endings. At least Akahi never knew anything about it. She wasn't loved, she was treated as a spoiled child. The only thing that was love was GM's, something that she received always. Her father want her out of the house as soon as he found out his own daughter was a kelvic. But her Mother had more of a sympathetic view to this situation. Mother decided to keep her until she reached an age to leave the house at some point. She kept spoon feeding her with GM's half of the time therefore she could leave the house. She didn't want her in the house either, having an animal in the house made them feel nasty. She was only at the age of three in animal years which was equivalent to the age of nineteen in human years. Therefore she was an adult in someway, in an animal way to be exact. In human she was an adult that should be going to a great school. But no, she chose not to... Even though she did have everything, it wasn't what she wanted. She wanted a love, someone she could actually feel something. What was it called again? Feelings! Yes. The feeling of love. Something that made her feel weird inside, butterflies was it? You see, she never felt this type of feeling about anyone. Therefore she wanted to find out. But she didn't want to go all fast and quick just like that. She wanted a real relationship, nothing fake. When she meant real, she meant a lot of things. They all represented a lot of things in her life, most things were stupid, somethings were logical. Either way she had feelings for someone out there, she just had to find him. Finding him would probably take ages, but it was worth the wait. Like waiting for rain on a hot summer day, so you can feel the rain fall down on your skin. The cold feeling keeping you refreshed and alive. A great feeling indeed, she asked herself if that's what love felt like. Being alive, and loved.. And. Well what she thought was stupid honestly, as if anyone would like her. But what if someone did, what if it were Scharis? Or some new guy she meets and ends up getting assaulted by. So many question, so many... She wished someone could answer them. An urge to find out was just pulled at her throat and she wanted to just let it out somehow. But how was she going to do that? Come up to some random person and be all, 'Hey! Can I ask you something?' or just plain scare the guy off and completely just ruin her life. Wow! She was so stupid... While walking through the market she bumped into a figure. A male figure, sadly. After her last assault issue, she was in more pain and sorrow than she had ever been in. She needed to get what she needed to get. She saw the man, looking up to him with her dark brown eyes, her eyelids outlines in black. She smiled softly, picking up her book quickly."So very sorry! I'm so clumsy..." She said in a stuttering tone.

Today was just another day... Walking along through the market, he looked around, trying to find a bit of something or other... He himself was a bit lost in thought, as he tried to remember something... But he could not recall... Was it important... He was not sure... So lost in thought was he, that he bumped into a woman, one who was equally lost in thought. Though as seemed to often happen, she just bounced right off of him. A common occurrence, since he tended to walk with force, and had a decent weight to him... As she stuttered and apologized for the collision, he smiled and put out a hand to help her to her feet. "That's alright, accidents happen... Here, let me help you with those..." He said, helping her to pick up her books. "I think we were both preoccupied, are you all right?" Clyde did his best to be nice, as it was rare to meet someone this nice in Ravok. Most were not near as nice or in a good mood. So he would do his best to be taken as a nice person. Though not to nice... That could also cause issues... People tended to try to take advantage if they felt you were to nice. And he could be both, he was tough at times, but could also be nice. Though it seemed lately he was using his toughness far more often than kindness....
