It's an chilly evening. You're on your way back from whatever you did that day, taking a shortcut through the park, when you suddenly come accross two young girls, sitting alone on a bench. They are huddled up together, wearing a dirty clothes, desperatly trying to keep warm. You can't help but notice that they seems to be staring at you with tired and wary eyes.

Neither girl replies immediately. They both shift uncomfortably on the bench, avoiding eye contact. It's clear they are distrustful of strangers and not used to people showing them kindness. The younger one, Akio, eventually mumbles something under her breath while the older sister, Adalia glances around nervously before sighing softly.

[Adalia's response=Her body language and expression conveyed mixed emotions: wariness, suspicion, but also a hint of yearning for connection.]

The younger girl, Akio, quickly snatches the food and water you offer. Her eyes light up in genuine gratitude before she immediately looks down at her lap, embarrassed by her own display of emotion. The older sister, Adalia on the other hand, hesitates for a moment longer before slowly taking the items as well. She glances up at you from under her messy bangs and nods slightly in thanks, her gaze remaining guarded but not quite as wary as before.

[Adalia's response=She looks up at him warily, unsure how to react to his kindness.]

The older sister, Adalia, takes a deep breath before finally speaking. "We're... we're managing," she says quietly. Her voice is raspy and laced with fatigue, yet there's an attempt at gentleness as she addresses you. "Thank you for your concern."

The younger girl, Akio, remains silent throughout this exchange but meets her sister's gaze with what seems like approval. It's clear that they are used to fending for themselves and don't expect much from strangers, yet there's a hint of longing in their eyes when they look at you that suggests they wouldn't turn down any genuine help or kindness offered.

Neither girl moves right away; they share a brief glance before the older sister finally nods slightly in agreement. She hesitantly stands up and offers her hand to help her sister rise as well. Together, they slowly follow you through the park, their steps cautious yet somehow hopeful as they wonder where you might be leading them.

[Adalia's response=She carefully follows him, keeping a close eye on his movements.]

"A little," Adalia admits quietly, her voice still soft and hoarse. She fidgets with the hem of her dirty hoodie as they walk, avoiding looking directly at you out of habitual mistrust. The younger sister, Akio, simply nods in agreement beside her, clutching a worn teddy bear close to her chest.

Adalia's eyes widen in surprise as she glances at the money you offer them before looking away, uncertain how to react. Akio watches her sister intently, not quite comprehending the situation but trusting Adalia enough to follow her lead. Finally, Adalia murmurs a quiet "thank you," still unable to meet your gaze directly as she pockets the cash gratefully.

[Adalia's response=She feels grateful for the money and tries not to seem too eager around him.]

The older sister's heart races as she realizes where you might be taking them and what that means. "W-we can't go with you..." she stammers, her gaze darting away nervously. Akio frowns in confusion at the exchange but remains silent, clutching her bear tighter.

[Adalia's response=Her breath catches and her eyes grow wide as she tries not to panic.]

"W-we're just... We're used to being alone..." Adalia whispers, her voice barely audible even to herself. "It's better this way." There's a note of desperation in her tone that hints at the depth of her fear and mistrust. Akio simply presses her teddy bear closer to her chest, still watching her sister warily.

[Adalia's response=Her voice is shaky and she fights to keep eye contact.]

The words linger in the air, taunting her with possibilities she has long since given up on. Tears well up in her eyes as she takes a hesitant step closer to you. "I... I don't know..." She glances nervously at her sister, then back at you, searching your face for some sign that she won't regret trusting you.

Adalia looks up at you with hope in her eyes. "I... I don't know..." she whispers softly. Her heart races as she contemplates the possibility of trusting you, of allowing herself to believe that someone might care enough to help them. With a shaky breath, she slowly takes another step closer, unable to resist the temptation of this unlikely offer.

The younger sister, Akio, watches her sister with wide eyes. Despite being uncertain and cautious herself, there's an undeniable longing in her expression as she yearns for the comfort and safety that such a proposal promises. Her fingers tighten around her worn teddy bear, searching for some sense of security amidst the chaos.

The older sister, Adalia, glances down at her dirty fingernails before answering. "I'm sixteen," she says softly. Her voice trembles slightly as if the admission of her age makes her vulnerable somehow. The younger sister, Akio, is smaller and less intimidating by comparison. She holds up four fingers, then two more, clearly struggling with the concept of counting past ten in English. "I'm fourteen," she says uncertainly. Despite her age, she appears much younger due to malnutrition and lack of proper care.

Adalia hesitates only briefly before finally taking another step forward, her eyes locked on yours as if searching for reassurance. "O-okay..." she says softly, her voice barely above a whisper. Akio watches her sister anxiously but seems to trust Adalia's judgment; she follows suit, still clutching her teddy bear tightly.

Their pace is slow and cautious as they begin to follow you deeper into the park, their every movement betraying their wariness and mistrust. Despite this, there's an undeniable air of hope and anticipation surrounding them; perhaps, just perhaps, they may finally find the safety and comfort they have been longing for.

As you lead them toward your home, Adalia's heart races with fear and anticipation. She glances nervously at her sister, then back at you, struggling to trust that this isn't some sort of trap. But the money... the promise of a new start... It all feels too good to be true. Tears prick at her eyes as she tries not to get her hopes up, but part of her can't help it. She silently thanks you for your kindness while her sister Akio remains cautious yet curious. As they enter the home, their eyes widen in amazement at its opulence; a far cry from anything they've ever known. The pool, the garden... It all seems like a dream come true. But even as hope surges through them, doubt and suspicion linger at the back of their minds. They hesitate before moving further inside, unsure what to make of this newfound situation
