walks past her as she hurries along. She might be out doing some shopping.

smiles at her and watches the cute girl. Ahhhhh city life.

caught the smile but she quickly looks forward. Strange woman.

laughs softly. "Where are you headed Miss?" she calls out softly.

halts for a moment. She considers walking on but that might be a little rude. "Nowhere special if you must know."

laughs softly again. "... D'ya need help ma'am?"

covers her face with her hand but quickly lowers it. She was not a ma'am right? "Well, if you know of a place that sells clothing at an

affordable price."

tilts her head and smiles. "Well miss, what all are you trying to sell?"

takes a step back. "E-excuse me?"

blinks and laughs. "... Oh I thought you were selling clothes. Like a consignment shop love. Oh I can bring you to a nice shop if you'd like

.'

merely trying to acquire clothing for herself. She slowly nods unsure now what to think of this woman. "If you don't mind."

smiles at this and steps toward her, ready to lead her. "I'll take you there.

follow her then. "Thank you for the help." She says softly.

smiles at her and leads her to a nice little store for women.

whispers another thanks as she steps inside to have a look at some of the outfits.

smiles. "Welcome~" she whispers back.

continues to look around. She wanted something nice to show to Arthur but then she wonders if he would even notice.

smiles at this and walks around with her, humming.

picks up a dress and holds it against herself. "This really isn't much."

smiles and nods. "It's a cute dress. D'ya like it?

turns a bit to show her how it looks on her. "Yes. I do. I think I will take it."

smiles and pats her back. "Good!"

an awkward look as she receives the pat. "Although it might be a little too big for me. Ah but I think I can fix it up." She is going to pay

for that dress now.

nods a bit. "It shouldn't be to hard. And the price is good!" She walks with her to the cashier.

thinking the same thing. It would be a simple job. She pays for the dress and seems content with that done. "Thank you again for the help."

smiles at her and nods. "No problem Miss!"

very grateful really. In fact now she had other questions for this woman but she hesitated to ask.

smiles and tilts her head. "... Anything else I can help you with?"

if she made it so obvious that indeed she was in need of some more assistance. "Well... There is something. I don't wish to trouble you

though."

slips her arm through Heung's. "Oh no do let me help you~"

finds that a little strange, at least the sudden closeness but she will keep quiet about it. "Since you insist. You see recently I have

become unemployed.

"

smiles at this. "oh have you? And you need help finding new employment?"

nods once. She looks a little embarrassed. "That is correct."

laughs. "What sort of employment?"

holds the package with the dress she just bought close. "Well, I suppose I can do most anything. As of recently I was working as a maid in

the governor's household."

hums. "Perhaps they need more seamstresses yeah? You could try that. Bars are usually lookin' for tough girls that can handle the crowds."

actually liking the idea of trying to be a seamstress. "I doubt I could handle a rowdy crowd. Specially the type that frequent those

sort of places."

nods and taps her lips. "Well a fancier restaurant then maybe. There are some rich folks lookin' for nannies no doubt."

listens carefully. She leans a little close. "I have never cared for young children. I don't suppose it is too difficult."

tilts her head and nods. "I doubt it is..."

rubs her chin. "I suppose it depends on the kind of child?"

laughs a little. "... Actually if it were one child maybe not bad. Lots of kids though..."

"Many children would make it more difficult." She sighs out. "Though I have not heard of many large families." She lowers her gaze.

nods a little and smiles. "You can find one though that suits you if you'd like??"

knows that is true but she had been lucky with her previous job. "I am hoping. I should begin looking soon."

nods a little and pats her back. "How'd you lose your old job anyways?

tries not to mind the patting. "Ah. Well." She might be embarrassed to say. "I was a little careless and a criminal managed to get into the

home of my employer."

nods at this. "Oh. That doesn't sound like your fault."

shrugs with a slight shake of her head. "No. I am not without blame. I was trusted to care for that house and I know... perhaps being a

simple does not mean I fend off burglars but even so if I had taken greater care."

nods a little and frowns. "I see. That's no good. "

still feels bad that she was unable to do anything. "Ah, but I should not think back on that. I have to keep going. I believe at least."

nods. "Let's do that then. It sounds best to forget about it.

trying, for now she wants to look for a job. The money she had was dwindling. "I do not mean to pry but what might your occupation be

miss...?"

smiles. "I'm a bar maid! I used to be a prostitute though." /honest.

tries to give her a smile but that does not work as she hardly does those. She simply has an awkward look on her face. "Ah. That is..." She

looks away unsure how to finish that sentence.

laughs and shrugs. "I get plenty of money from the bar though.

merely nods, she avoid looking at her for a while. "I suppose we do what we must."

smiles at this and shrugs. "Well I suppose we do huh?"

nods softly but she is sure she would not go that far.

did it cause it was easy. Not because she was in dyer straights. She doesn't say as much though. People lost respect for her if she did.

not mention it again. After all it was something difficult to speak about. "If you don't mind me asking, do you know of anyone who does need

a nanny?"

about it. "I could probably find someone for you?"

might show a hint of excitement on her face. "If its not too much trouble, please."

smiles at her and nods. "Alrighty then!"

feels relieved though a little bad. She still felt she was troubling this woman and they have not even introduced themselves to each other.

"Before I forget, and I do not wish to be so rude. My name is Helene." She extends her hand out to her.

smiles and takes her hand, shaking it. "I'm Soo Yeon."

"It is a pleasure." She does mean it since this woman was proving to be so helpful.

winks at her. "Don't worry. I try to help my fellow adorable Asians when I can."

not sure what she means by adorable or at least she will pretend not to. "Again thank you."

smiles at her and nods. "Welcome! D'ya need something to eat love?"

glances away. Why did this woman read her so well. "It would not hurt to have a bite to eat."

smiles at this and links their arms together. "Lets go then!"

becoming more accustomed to her closeness. She gives her a nod to signify she should lead the way.

smiles at this and pulls her along to a restaurant.

walks along with her. "Do you come to eat here often?"

nods and smiles. "I like it rather a lot.

they serve good food then but they must right? If not why else would Soo Yeon keep coming back. "We'll see I suppose."

smiles and opens the door for her. "Here you go."

her a small bow with a soft thanks as she heads inside looking around the place.

laughs softly at the little bow and follows her in.

waits for her to continue guiding her inside.

leads her to a table and pulls a seat out for her. >w<

did not expect that much. They were both ladies after all. She finding herself thanking Soo Yeon once more. "You really did not have to."

smiles at this and shakes her head. "That's okay! It's good!"

accept it but still a little embarrassed. "Shall I be doing this for you if we happen to come across each other again?"

smiles at this and sits down. "Oh that would be cute."

not sure if its so cute. She makes herself comfortable on her chair fixing up her skirt a bit. "You think a lot of things are cute."
