Rolling her wheel chair through the local park a mile or two from the college Lyni tried to think. Where would be okay to do her stretches? It would have to be accessible but secluded with something for her to hold onto.
Seeing a group of people coming up the walk she slipped further back trying not to be seen. She hated the pitying looks people gave her, even more than the derristion. Wheeling herself out again she continued looking, cursing the fact that there were more people here than usual.
Suddenly she realized there children running toward her followed by an adult. She wanted to get out of the way but the trail had hedges right next to it, leaving no room for her. Resigning herself she stilled.
It came as she knew it would, children hit her chair and fell. The parents came immediately and stared yelling at her for not moving until they saw the chair, Then they stared at it for too long.
Just as they were either about to look down at her for it or pity her a familiar voice came from behind them, "What's going on?" Just as the parents were about to complain Wolffe knelt next to Lyni and asked, "Are you alright?"
The parents regained their momentum and started yelling at Wolffe for asking if Lyni was alight and demanding to know why he let her out of his sight. This soon stopped as a tall, scarred man who had to be Wolffe's father. He saw where Wolffe was kneeling next to Lyni and heard the yelling of the parents and spoke one word that cut through everyone, "Enough,"
All turned to him, "How dare you.."
"I said enough." Looking each of these people in the eye, "If your kids looked where they were going they wouldn't have run into a wheelchair. And as for her getting out of the way there is no space on the side of the path as you would know if you actually looked." They did, and grumbled as they grabbed their kids and left.
Wolffe stood up and spoke in Mando'la, "Buir, ibic is Lyni." Turning back to her, "Lyni this is my dad."
Stretching out a slender hand, "Its an honor to meet you sir."
Taking her hand in his large calloused one he answered, "And you Lyni. But please call me Jango." Looking around, "Are your brothers working?"
She nodded, "Yes s.. Jango."
Smiling down at the young woman, "Why don't you join our families picnic lunch?" Glancing at Wolffe, "His sister in law Aalya would like to meet the lady who can get him to smile."
Laughing slightly at this Lyni answered, "Thank you. It would be nice to meet her too, I can ask her how to put up with a Fett."
Making a motion as if acknowledging a hit Jango motioned them to follow him. Wolffe moved the handles into place and pushed Lyni as they followed him. And the family picnic was a pleasant experience.
Lost
A bee buzzes,
Wind blows,
Clouds glide,
Sun shines.
I see no
way to go.
