Eliza stood at the corner of the stairwell, barely showing half her body, keeping out of sight deliberately.
There was someone else standing in front of Eliza, though half-hidden by her figure. From the slim outline, Audrey could tell it was a young man.
Soon, Eliza pulled a stack of bills from her wallet and tossed it in his direction arrogantly. She said, "Isn't this what you want? Take it and get lost. Don't bother me again." The distance was too far for Audrey to catch the exact words, but she could tell Eliza's tone was anything but pleasant.
The thin young man seemed to flinch, his eyes red as he looked back at Eliza. He threw the money back at her feet before running out from behind the corner. Distracted by his tears, the man didn't see Audrey standing there and crashed right into her.
Still feeling a bit full from lunch, the impact nearly made her stomach turn. Audrey steadied herself against the wall and finally got a clear look at the boy's face.
His cheeks were hollow, his complexion a little sallow, and under his strong brows were bright, clear eyes, yet the furrowed brows gave him a depth far beyond his years. Audrey didn't recognize him, but something about him felt strangely familiar.
The boy looked down quickly, glancing at Audrey as he mumbled, "Sorry!"
With that, the boy dashed off.
Audrey, rubbing the spot where he'd bumped her, stared at his retreating figure, frowning slightly. "Where have I seen him before?' she thought.
At the stairwell entrance, Eliza looked down at the scattered bills, stomping her foot in frustration, though the uneasy look in her eyes didn't fade.
