Franki sighed; she could really use some pretzels right now. She was about to say something, but Atomsk managed to beat her to the punch.

"I'm sorry about earlier as well Franki. I wasn't allowed to talk about my problems back home. Gangs aren't exactly understanding groups of people. I guess I just let loose because I could. I didn't mean to make you feel bad. I've just.....never been able to talk about it before."

He was smiling at her again, that goofy that seemed to always be on his face. She couldn't help but smile back. "Don't apologize, Atomsk." She chastised kindly. "It's no problem, really. It's very endearing to know that you would reveal such things to me. Even though you don't really know me."

She placed her hand on her chest. "Most people would hold on to that kind of story for someone they truly trusted." She smiled at him once again. "Your...story...is a bit saddening, but I'm happy that you told me."

She bit at her thumbnail once again, as her eyes quickly went back to looking out at the view.
