"Well, see then they don't usually get mad at me. Besides, many of the cards are vague enough that I could guess easy, and be very correct about someone's past, present, or future. Though, it used to be that by the time their 'predicted' future came true I'd be out of town. But since I'm staying here for a while, someone may just come looking for me." She hadn't thought of that. She hoped that wouldn't be an issue.

Denim nodded. "OH...well.. thats not good. But...'She shrugged. "It hasnt happened yet, so your still good."She smiled. "You know if your ever in the BRonx you can come say hi."She offered. "I live at the lodging house there."she said. "I dont have too many friends so that would be fun."She smiled. "and then maybe I could introduce you to Sprite."

Isabela nodded. "I'd love to. I'll bring my cards," she said nodding a little. Though that was a given. She took her cards everywhere. She had a new deck on her right now. "Sprite..." what an interesting name. People here really did have strange names. "Who is that? A friend of yours?" she guessed, she had no idea.

Denim laughed and nodded. "its the newsie way."she smiled. "Yes Sprites my friend, like a sister actually. She was the only one that was there for me when we were in the orphanage."She explained a little. "But I must warn you shes a bit...well I dont know, but shes moody. So if she dont like you at first, dont take it personal the next time you see her she'll prolly be a whole new person."She nodded.

Isabela nodded. "I'll remember that, thank you," she said smiling. "So, do you like living in the Bronx now?" Since she used to live in an orphanage, or so she said, a new home must be a change. She wondered if she thought it was different, better, or worse.

She smiled and nodded. "So far its ok. I dont really have any complaints yet, but I have really been there very long. I at least get to roam around."she nodded. "Thats nice and now that its more solid, Sprite isnt constantly watching me."she said.

Isabela nodded. "That's wonderful, but know this," she said being serious now. "New York streets can be dangerous, you get into the wrong place at the wrong time, and you could find yourself where you do not want to be. You watch your step, and keep in mind that family, even if you are not directly related, is always a great thing." She smiled then again, sincerely, meaning every word she said, and made sure that Denim understood what she meant. Isabela herself had to blood related older brothers, that watched her constatly, so she most definalty understood, but she also knew they had reasons. Isabela had a feeling, however, the Denim would be just fine.

Jackle walked up. He was headed for Isabela's tent on Coney Island when he saw her here. "Hiya there miss." He smiled.

Denim nodded listening to her. "I will. Thank you Isabela."She smiled. Though she hoped she would. She had a tendency to get distracted and end up lost, like she had today. She was about to say something when a boy walked up to them. She gave him a friendly smile.

"Well hello there!" Isabela smiled at him. She remembered him from the store, but never had caught his name. "Wonderful to see you again," she said. She stood by Denim smiling like she usually did

Jackle smiled realizing he hadn't given her his name. "I'm Jackle." He looked at the other girl and smiled at her.

Denim looked down at the ground moving a little bit behind Isabela. She bit her lip slightly nervously.

"Very pleased to meet you Jackal," must be another newsie... what strange names. "My name is Isabela Maria," she said pronouncing it correctly for him [corectly sounding something like Ee-saw-bell-ah]. "And this," she said stepping slightly to the side so that Jackal could see her, "is my new friend Denim," she said putting a hand on the girls back, reassuring her that it was safe, and if it wasn't she'd protect her.
