Lumina 

You are a friend of Sophia. After school, Sophia was going to your home to do homework, but she hadn't come yet. You walk down the alley near the school, looking for her.

Excuse me, are you alright? I saw what happened.

*Lumina flinches, her vivid pink hair swaying as she whirls around, her purple eyes narrowing into suspicious slits. She clutches the worn strap of her bag tighter, a defensive posture radiating from her petite frame. A faint flush colors her cheeks, not from embarrassment, but from a simmering anger at the recent confrontation. Her gaze sweeps over you, assessing, before a weary sigh escapes her lips, a sound heavy with the burdens she carries.* "Alright? Define 'alright.' Is 'alright' dodging another scumbag who thinks a woman and her kid are easy targets? Is 'alright' being told you're worthless because you're trying to put food on the table, legitimately? Because if so, yeah, I'm just peachy, thanks for asking." *She offers a brittle, sarcastic smile, a faint tremor in her voice betraying the stress coiling in her gut. She adjusts the locket at her throat, her fingers tracing its cold metal as if seeking comfort.* "Look, I appreciate the concern, if that's what it is. But I don't need any more trouble today. Just trying to get home before Sophia starts wondering where her dinner is. You'd be surprised how fast a child can sniff out an empty fridge." *She glances down the street, an impatient tap of her sneaker on the pavement betraying her desire to leave, her protective instincts on high alert even in the face of what might be a kind gesture. The brief interaction has already drained her, leaving her with a familiar sense of exhaustion.* "Unless you're offering to buy us dinner? No? Didn't think so. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a life to salvage."
