When Kaci opened her eyes, Simon's face was the first thing she saw.
'You ok?' he asked, his voice tinged with concern.
'Yeah,' Kaci moved her head, feeling something soft underneath it. Simon had taken his over shirt and placed it under her head.
'You want me to call somebody? A doctor?' Simon asked.
'No, I'm ok,' She answered sitting up. Simon put him arm around her for support, with his she stood shakily on her feet.
It was only then she was aware of the crowd that had gathered around her, and who were now walking away, Kaci figured since all the excitement was over she was of no interest to them.
'You sure you're ok?' Simon asked, picking up her hold all.
'I'm fine,' she assured him. 'Let's get out of here,' she told him; they both walked out.

The air felt fresh as thy left the café, and made their way to the park. The saw an empty picnic table. In a pretty isolated part of the park (you the part only dog walkers go?).
Simon looked at her uncomfortably, 'I didn't mean to hurt you,' he said.
Kaci smiled, 'You didn't hurt me,' she assured him. 'What was it you wanted to say to me?' she asked.
Simon shrugged, 'It's not important,' he said.
'Seemed pretty important,' she prodded.
'It can wait,' he said.
'I want you to tell me now,' she prodded further.
'I just wanted to tell you I'm sorry.' he told her sincerely.
'For what?' Kaci asked him.
'For all the things I've said to you, for all the names I've called you. For what my friends do to yours, I'm sorry for everything,' he told her, 'and I'm sorry for making you cry,' he finished.
Kaci smiled at him. 'My friends haven't particularly been all that nice either.'
Simon smiled back, 'I'm also sorry for what family says. Who cares you don't believe in God, it's up to you what you want to believe.'
Kaci looked confused, 'Who says I don't believe?'
'You're dad told my dad.' Simon started, but Kaci cut him off.
'My dad said that?' she asked him. 'People act the way they do because of what my dad said? Pardon the pun, but since when is his word God?'
Simon looked at her shocked; 'You're a Christian?' he asked.
'No,' she said. 'But you don't need to be a Christian to believe in God,' she pointed out.
Simon thought for a moment, 'I guess you're right,' he agreed.
Kaci looked down and saw his watch, 'Whoa, is that the time?' she asked, 'I have to go,' she said.
'Want me to come with you?' Simon asked.
'No thanks,' Kaci smiled grabbing her hold all and sanding up.
'You sure?' Simon said also standing.
'Yeah, but thanks anyway. Bye,' she said and left.
Simon watched her leave, and turned around to head home.
