A look of confusion crossed Aislia's face. "We've been talking about why I am traveling, but I never asked you." She mentaly kicked herself for being so inconsiderate. Her mind swarmed with possible answers;trader,adventurer, message runner. Aislia always had an active imagination, making up stories for herself when rain kept her in the cave she often slept in. She giggled slighty at the sight of him walking taller.

Dahih chuckled, "To be honest, I came to town for shopping, and a quick drink." He rubbed the back of his neck, "Nothing exciting, really. Just needed some bread," he said, laughing sheepishly, "I wish my life was a little more interesting, but there it is." He was still smiling though, so he obviously was fine with how things were.

"You came for bread and ended up coming with me on a mini adventure" Aislia giggled. Oh well, so he wasn't a great adventurer, surely he is more interesting than what she knew."So, tell me about yourself. You already know that I have a brother." Her smile widened. She couldn't believe she was doing this. Yes to most this would seem simple, but Aislia never met anyone. Most of the time she kept to herself.

He scratched his chin, looking up thoughtfully, "Myself...hm..." he looked at her, "Well, I live on my own. A very quiet, relaxed life. When I'm not lounging around, I'm walking to town, or playing kickball. I have a sibling too...a sister. Older, by a couple of years," he chuckled wistfully, "So very protective, she is."

Aislia laughed. "That sounds like my brother. He has always been really protective, even though I'm only younger by a year. Probably why it shocked me when he left...But enough about that. A simple quiet life? I like that, pretty much how I live. Well used to anyway. Her stepps became lighter, maybe this whole traveling thing wasnt so bad. She gained a friend along the way and a small adventure seemed to be started. "I've never played kickball..."

"Its a great game. Maybe if we manage to meet up again, I can teach you how to play," he said, smiling, "Its good exercise, and its really fun." He trailed off, watching her curiously, "I don't mean to pry, but...why did your brother leave?" He was overly curious, he knew that, but he couldn't help himself. She'd mentioned it, and now he wanted to know.

Aislia stared at the ground."Your guess is as good as mine. He talked about it sometimes, about going out into the world and adventuring but we always pretended like that. I just know that one night, he kept talking about all the things he wanted to see and the next morning, he was gone." Mist began to form in her eyes, quickly brushed away."I would love to learn how to play." She had recovered some sort of smile, though tears tugged at her heart. Meet up again? The notion that he wouldn't stay through her journey never even crossed Aislia's mind, though in all fairness, he never said he would stay with her. The thought of being alone again brought more pain to her; Aislia stared out into the woods, words lost in her throat.

He looked at her, with a worried expression on her face. Something was up...well, other than the thought of her brother up and leaving, "Are you ok, Aislia..?" If he had done something to upset her, he'd do whatever he could to fix that...Seeing the poor girl look so sad shattered him. Usually he wasn't so sensitive. "If there's anything you need from me...anything at all..."

Aislia looked back to Dahih, her eyes downcast. "I know we just met and that you probably have more important things to do besides show me around. But the thought of being alone again, it just kinda..I dont know." Her eyes caught his worried expression. Her own expression quickly changed to worry,her hands waving infront of her face."Please dont think I am trying to guilt trip you or anything...I was just talking is all. I mean if you dont want to come that's fine, it will be nice journeying with you just for this little bit. Oh, I'm sorry." Aislia's cheeks were aflame, all blood rushing to her face. In her babbling, her usually calm, serine voice became high pitched. Running out of breath, she covered her face, looking back into the woods to calm her nerves.

Dahih couldn't help but smile. He watched her, listening, and waited until she was done, before he answered. "Ma'am, I will walk with you for years, if thats what you want." He couldn't leave her alone, and he had no current obligations, or reasons not to go. And hey, it could be fun, right? He honestly didn't mind going with her. "So...do you want me to stay?"

Aislia turned back with a huge grin on her face. "You would stay? Thank you!" Her first impulse was to hug him, tripping slightly on her own feet as she did so. Luckily for her, she never lost her balance. The blush returned to her cheecks. Walk with me for years? A happy smile deepened her blush. "I would love it...If you stayed."

Dahih laughed and hugged her back, grinning widely, "Well, ma'am, if you'd love it, then I can't refuse," he said, stepping back and smiling, "Just so long as we can take a short trip to my house, so I can grab a few things that I can't live without for any extended amount of time."

Aislia's look was one of pure shock, all blood rushing to her cheeks. A shy smile spread across her lips. "I'm glad." It was only then that she noticed that she was the only one of the two that had any type of previsions. "Oh! Of course. I'm not really in any hurry any way. I wouldn't want you to have to travel without anything you needed." Though she smiled, she mentally cursed herself for forgetting something so simple."

He laughed lightly, grinning, "Thanks. We have to go this way, though," he said, stopping and turning slightly pointing in the general direction of his house, "Its not far, it'll be really quick, I promise," he said, turning back to her and smiling, shifting his feet slightly.

Aislia turned on her paws, hair and bag swishing around her. "I'm not in any hurry."She tucked a stray strand of hair back behind her ears. "So, do you live by yourself? Or with someone? Her face continued to flush
