Hanging out

"I heard the question, I just don't understand why you're asking me that." Ayoko says with a shrug "And the answer to your question is this: There is nothing be sad about! I mean, I'm healthy, alive, and I've made a new friend! What's the point of being sad and depress if you just end up not enjoying the people and things you have"

He stops talking for a bit. "Up until I met you and Bri, I DIDN'T have anyone, or anything..."

"Well now you do, and because of that you can now smile and be happy." She says smiling at him brightly "so turn that frown upside down!"

"Heh... I wish it was that easy for me..." He looks down with a sad look in his eyes.

Her smile slowly turned into a frown "It's easy...just forget about your past and look forward for the future. Well, that's what I did."

"I can't... the nightmares won't let me..."

"Then you have to replace your 'bad' memories with 'good' ones." She says smiling at him widely

"But I don't have any."

"Then lets go make some." she says, with a smile

"But, what about food?"

"How about we go camping in the woods?" Ayoko asks, smiling "we could make a fire there and cook our food."

"Now?" He asks surprised. "We don't even have any sleeping bags."

"Who cares!" Ayoko says, waving her arms in the air "It's probably not going to rain, and if it does we'll have a blast running around cluelessly."

"A-alright I guess. Is it okay for us to just go alone? Shouldn't we take someone with us?"

"Nah...but to make you feel safe how about we do this..." Ayoko says with a sigh "we'll camp on the edge of the woods, so if we're in trouble we can just run back into the city in no time flat."

"Alright." He says looking at her.

"If you want we could stay here though" Ayoko quickly added on "I mean, we don't HAVE to go if you don't want to."

"No that's alright, unless YOU want to stay here."

"I've never actually went camping before, I was always to scared of the possible dangers.." She says weakly "But for some reason, It doesn't matter anymore."

"Well alright then, lets go."

They both climb over the wall, thanks to Ace's handy chain and walked towards the woods.

"So what are the woods like?"

"Well it make it simple, there are many trees and woodland animals there. " She says, smiling

"Oh, alright. That doesn't sound too dangerous."

Ayoko smiles brightly at him and says "This is going to be so much fun!"
