Allison turned to look in the direction the voice came from
and then glared back at the machine. Stupid machine. It had
taken a lot of skill to steal that dollar and now she had to admit
her defeat and go back to her water torture.

        ❛ Yeah, that would’ve been great advice.
           Now I lost a dollar and I have to go back
           to drinking water. Why can’t they have
           something with actual taste in it? ❜

She turned back to look at the guy. Cancer. It was pretty obvious
judging by his condition; but she knew better than to bring it up.
After all, she was certain she wasn’t looking exactly healthy either.

        ❛ I’m Allison, by the way.  ❜

                                                  “Christopher”

Smiled and offered her his hand.
He knows what people thinks of
him when they see him, without
his beanie, and with this pale skin
and eye bags; he stopped being
annoyed by it a long time ago.
This girl didn’t look really healthy
either, though.

                                                  “I have some apple juice,
                                                  if you want some.”

He had nothing else to offer.
