"You sure you're alright?"
Alexa laughed a little weakly.
"My side still hurts... but I'll be alright..."
Alexa was panicking on the inside.
'If he asks me to walk me home... How am I supposed to cover my tracks?! What's his reaction going to be if he finds out I'm homeless?! Will he tell anyone?!'
Alexa's mind kept raving questions over and over.
"H-Hey... Ataro-kun?"
Alexa's eyes looked down to the floor.
"Um... I'm really sorry for what happened earlier."
Even if the attempted robbery wasn't her fault, she still was weak enough to let Eradicator come out and kill those people.
"I... I felt like I should've done more than just run off to try and call the police like that... I'm sorry..."
Alexa could feel tears build up. She looked up at Ataro, keeping the tears away for now.
"E-Enough about that... Um... Regarding your sister... Are the two of you close? I remember how close I was with my twin sister Maria. We used to play all the time together, but..."
Alexa trailed off at that point. She figured that Ataro didn't want to hear about her past. Besides, she was more curious about Ataro's past than her own.
