Mariel looked at the monkey shirt and reached for it. Luna put her down again and mariel picked up the shirt. She hugged the shirt close to her and then smiled at Saedah. She pointed at the monkey on the shirt and smiled "Mariel" She said as she pointed at the monkey. Mariel smiled at Saedah and had noticed that she had liked the shirt with the music notes. Mariel shifted the monkey shirt to her left hand and picked up the music shirt with the other then offered it to Saedah. "for ju" She said with a smile, hoping Saedah would like it.
Luna smiled as Mariel pointed at the monkey and said her own name.
"She tinks its her." Luna said laughing, "no Bokis, ese es un mono, tu eres un Mink." Luna patted mariel on the head and smiled as she saw her daughter offering the shirt to Saedah. How nice! She was so happy that Mariel was doing her best to make friends!

Saedah looked at the offered shirt and took it with a trembling hand and clutched it as well to her chest. She offered the girl a shy smile as she held onto it. It was nice of Mariel to give her one of her shirts too. She gave a very small laugh as Luna spoke to her daughter again. What a funny language. She then looked up to her father and back to the pile of clothes.
Taking the two shirts she folded them neatly into a pile and then reached a hand towards the shirts Mariel was holding. "Sae fwold?" she inquired trying to be helpful.
Kuyoja took the shirts Saedah had attempted to fold. She had tried her best even if it was still quite messy. He looked to Luna a moment wondering how she could handle her daughter so easily. Perhaps he had to adjust more than he had thought.
"Perhaps we should buy your items and get ready to go home for lunch." He suggested wondering if Saedah perhaps was getting tired from their adventurous day already.

Mariel smiled and was about to hand over the shirts she had to be folded when she was picked up by Luna. The sudden altitude change made mariel let out a nervous squeak and made her clutch at Lunas chest when she was finally there. But she soon realised that it was only Luna and so her smile returned to her face as she looked down at Saedah.
Luna had picked up Mariel and put the shirts she had chosen into the yes pile that was slowly growing on her other arm. She smiled to the man and handed him a coupon in thanks. It was indeed time to get going, after all Luna had to cook and clean before bed. Luna never even bought ready made food...no that was an insult to her cooking skills, only fresh food for her family!
"Gracias por todo, for ebry ting. That paper will get ju 2 for half price, Adios, maybe we meet again one day." Luna smiled and began to walk towards the counter holding mariel in one hand and the clothing in the other.
Mariel was facing Lunas back because of the way she was being held and so could still see Saedah as she was being carried away. Mariel waved happily shouting "Adios...buh bye!" as they got farther. She had liked the snake girl, she was so interesting! Mariel still wanted to touch the girls legs...or lack there of. They seemed so strange and she still wanted to investigate them. Saedah was soon lost in the clothing racks since the girl was still on the floor, and so Mariel stopped waving. But still she was hapy cause she was sure she would find Saedah again and solve the mystery of the lack of legs.

Kuyoja nodded his head, "Perhaps I could have you and your daughter over. Saedah has never really gotten to play with anyone before. It could be good for her. " He stated as he would really like to get Saedah use to having people over...as well perhaps make an friend her own age.
"I work for the D-corperation, I live there as well while I teach. I would like to have you both over for lunch." He asked as he was not trying to pick up the woman...the way he phrased it made it obvious he wasn't. He bent over to pick up their clothes before he scooped Saedah back into his arms.
Saedah was happy to be back in Kuyoja's arms but also a bit sad cause it looked like they would be leaving. But she got her shirts! That was a good thing. And she met someone too! She was proud to have ..at least spoken with the girl a bit. She looked to her father as he invited them over for lunch.
Looking back over to Mariel she nodded her head. She wanted Mariel over. Yes ...she actually did.

Luna nodded as the man mentioned the children playing together sometime. She liked the idea, afterall Mariel didnt have many friends yet and Luna herself was very social and so wanted mariel to be as well. Luna knew mariel was shy and withdrawn now but maybe if she made a few really good friends it would help her open up a bit.
"I would love if Mariel and Saedah could play together more."
The Lunch sounded fun, Luna half wondered what kind of food the man ate, from the looks of it not the Latin food she was used to...but rice was a universal language right?! Luna smiled at his politeness.
"Almuerzo...er...Lunch would be fantastic, Ju can just tell mariel, or send her with a note one day if ju wish. I drop her off in da mornings for day care when I have to quidad a patient, I am a Home nurse for da elderly."
Mariel liked the way that the two adults were talking, she caught a few words, but they spoke to quickly for her complete understanding. But it sounded like a good conversation and that meant that the adults liked each others company so she would maybe see Saedah again! The thought put a huge smile on mariels face and she waved with more happiness that before. Luna liked to go out places, Mariel knew that, and she had heard the word lunch, that was a place right?! So that meant that Lunch could bring her closer to Saedah. Mariel was proud of her logic and was sure there was no way around it, she would see saedah again!

Kuyoja nodded his head, since all the children were kept on file he knew he would be able to access Luna and Mariel's information easily. Still though it seemed rude to intrude on such personal things.
"If I could get your address then. Or phone number?" He inquired politely. He was glad for once having met someone, mostly because it meant more play time for Saedah and more chances she could get use to people.
Saedah continued to switch from watching Luna to her papa. She as well only caught a few things about the conversation. Something about lunch...and Mariel...she hoped that ment she would get to see the girl again.

Luna nodded and shifted the clothing to Mariel who was for a while buried in clothing. Luna quickly scribbled down her number on the back of a grocery recipt that she had in her pocket and handed it to Kuyoja. She naturally had flowery-ish writing, she had been taught as a child to always write in cursive and her teacher had made them draw countless circles over and over to make sure the wrist movement always flowed. She thought the numbers wold be recognizable, if not just a bit...decorated? She hoped he wouldnt mind. She then shifted her clothing burden back to her other hand once he took the note, releasing Mariel from her prison of clothing.
"Der is my number, ju may call any day after 5. I shud be home unless der is an emergencia." Luna worked with elderly people, she visited their homes on designated days, cleaned, cooked, gave them company, any kind of easy medical care they might need (insolin shots, blood pressure measuring, ect) but she usually did this during the day. By 5 she was almost always home, and on certain days she was home all day.
Mariel was suddenly afraid of all of the clothing that seemed to attack her for no reason. It was too much for her to do more than just hold onto to make sure she wouldnt fall out of Lunas arms. She struggled with the clothing but soon enough it was lifted off and back on the other arm. Mariel eyed the clothing like it was a living thing and gave it a wary look. But she did notice that Mr. Saedahs father man had a paper and that meant good things right?!

Taking the number he nodded his head and tucked it away into a pocket that ...seemed to have magically become known. Shifting his girls weight he offered the woman a small bow in farewell.
"I bset pay for these so I can truely test them on Saedah from home. You will hear from me soon about lunch." He murmured. THe idea of having a schedueled play date in his own home was a bit....uneerving. He had such prblems with Saedah..add another child to the mix....
Saedah imitated her father best she could from her vantage point. She loved imitating him even if she wasn't very good at it. She offered Mariel a small small wave of her hand in farewell.
