Perched on a fountain's edge, a girl watched the water be spit out, only to fall back down. The wind, not necessarily gusty but certainly not breezy, teased the ends of her skirt, made to match her eyes, and wrapping it around her calves and ankles. Her hair was brought along her cheeks and sometimes into her eyes. Even her hat, white with a wide brim that did will to not only shade but hide her face, wasn't left alone by the relentless wind. Only her white tank, though loose, was saved from being whipped around. She had the longing to go home, back to the fountains, much more elaborate than the ones here, and back to sitting a cafes and watching the world pass by. But going back also meant facing people and their stares, knowing they were all wondering when she was going to break next.
Distracted in thought, Angel had stopped holding her hat down, and with the right kind of gust the wind eased it off her head. It hovered slightly, as if it was indecisive, over the water before dropping, just out of Angel's reach. "Shoot!" Was the only curse word that could be heard, the rest was uttered under her breath. Shoes were ditched on the ground as she stood up on the fountain's edge. Her foot lingered over the surface, as she almost stepped in before gaining second thoughts. The water couldn't be clean at all. Either way she wasn't going to risk it. So she settled for watching her hat, hoping it would eventually float her way. "Come here, stupid hat."
Miss, a slender husky female, looked up as her mistress stood. She thingyed her head and perked her ears at the noises. She let out a short bark as the hat flew away. Beside her lay another dog, a shepherd mix to be exat. Her name was Cadi, and she didn't belong to Angel... But to her brother.
