She was taken quite by surprise when she saw the heavy bags she was carrying, her eyes going rather blank with awe and confusion. She wasted all of her money buying whatever she saw fit?! [i][color=f49ac2]"Jeezus girl, how long have you been carrying [s]them shits[/s] those things?!"[/color][/i] she thought to herself with a sweat drop of awkwardness. As soon as the girl stopped looking at a silver elephant figurine, the girl's eyes lazily gazed at her, cupped her lips into an 'o' and greeted Marlene again as if she didn't notice her in the first place. [color=f49ac2][b][i]"Ehhhhhh?! She's that forgettable?!"[/i][/b][/color] Marlene thinks to herself again as she internally screams with confusion. Regardless, she was only just a little girl. Probably just a bit forgetful. She's still looks innocent and obviously doesn't mean any harm. With a slightly nervous chuckle, she simply pats on her head. [b][color=f49ac2]"N-Now now, little one,"[/color][/b] she says with a slightly awkward smile, [b][color=f49ac2]"I can get you an ice cream if you want. Follow me inside and you can choose."[/color][/b] She then gingerly grabs the girl's hand as she guides her into the ice cream store.
