I jogged on the side of the road trying to find another place to sleep, but not on this dirt road anymore. I trotted down the road until I spotted a figure in the mist. Was it a person. I stepped a little closer making my distance quite far from the thing. Suddenly the thing started moving. Thats when I found out it was a person. I walked closer in caution. The person came closer to. It was a girl I can't believe what she's doing here late at night.
"Hello, my name is Cassidy and yours"
"Lydi thats what my folks call me but my real name is Lydia. Anyway what are you doing late at night, outside?"
" You might think I'm crazy but I snuck out of my house and disguised myself as a newsie, pretty insane ha?" She looked down, and sighed.
" Well honestly I sort of have the same story as you. I snuck out too, and dressed myself as a newsie. My plan was to trick the newsies into thinking I'm one of them. Which I highly doubt will work. Where you heading?"
"Brooklyn actually, pretty stupid to choose the place with the most judgmental newsies"
" Thats where I'm headed, it's not a problem to ever challenge yourself, but I just don't know where Brooklyn is disappointingly enough."
"I know where it is, follow me." She headed down the road, and pulled her cap over her head covering her hair. She had curly brown hair that seemed not cleaned out for months. She has lovely hair. She should be lucky, unlike me with straight brown hair that says no enthusiasm. Anyways we turned to the right, and went down another dirt road. She seemed to know where she was going just like she said. It was a really boring walk quit silent. I didn't want to disturb her thinking. So I got her attention, and pointed at a bench. She seemed to know what I meant. I sat down on the bench, and signaled her to come sit next to me. She smiled and nodded.
"Hey Cassidy aren't you tired at all."
"Not really I used to stay up all night looking out the window thinking about my late parents. They passed away when I was 9. So from then on I lived in an orphanage." She looked up into the night sky probably wishing her parents where here with her every step of the way.
" Oh, sorry but I bet they loved you a lot as much as my parents did." That makes me feel that I should be happy that I at least have parents. But it's to late now I can't turn back especially since I already meant someone. I closed my eyes, and leaned my head against my shoulder. I was exhausted, and hungry so it wash't that hard to fall asleep on a uncomfortable bench. I tried to stay up as long as I could to comfort Cassidy, but I think she wanted me to get some rest.
