Ryssa grinned at Cain, "We could play I spy if you want; though I'm not sure how that would turn out. 'I spy, with my little eye, something beginning with z...' I wonder what it could be." She smiled softly.

Ryssa nodded, "That sounds like a good idea, any idea where one could be or are we just going to wander around aimlessly until we find one?" She asked, laughing.

Ryssa grinned up at Cain, "I am feeling so much better! I really needed that!" She stood up and then hopped up to sit on the counter; so that she was eye level to Cain. "So, I'm assuming we are just going to hide out here for a while until the food is light enough to carry? If so, what are we...

Once Ryssa was dressed she hung the towel over the door to the office and made her way back to the front of the store. She decided that she would wait for Cain to return from the shower. It was so nice to feel clean again, she smiled and sat down with her back leaning against the counter.

Ryssa laughed, "I wasn't worried. I grew up in a mainly male environment, so men walking into the shower area not knowing I was there was pretty much the norm. It'll be nice to have a lock for a change, not that I don't trust you. It's just that... I don't know you..." She trailed off, what was...

Ryssa took some time to wash her hair while she was in the shower, but as she turned the water off again she realised she didn't have a towel and the only clothes she had were the ones she had been wearing for a few weeks now. She swore and then decided that the best course of action would be to...

Ryssa nodded, "Okay, I'll make sure to leave you some hot water." She laughed. She walked over to the shower and turned it on, once the water was the right temperature she got undressed and stepped in, sighing contentedly as the hot water poured onto her. It had been so long since she had last...

Ryssa tilted her head slightly to the side and looked at him. "You should have woken me up last night, I could have kept watch for part of the night. Also, are you sure you don't want to go first? You did make it after all."

Ryssa heard the noise of rushing water, she guessed that Cain had figured out how to make a shower so she followed the noise until she found him in the back room. "Good morning" She said, smiling at him. "Did you manage to get a shower working?"

A ray of sunlight through a gap between the boards on the window woke Ryssa. She sat up, yawning and looked around. Where was Cain? She wondered if he had stayed up the whole night to guard. If so, he would be extremely tired. She stood up and began walking slowly through the store, trying to...

Ryssa nodded and gave a small smile before pulling a blanket out of her backpack and laying it down on the floor. She realised she was extremely tired and very soon after she had lay down she was asleep.

Ryssa chuckled, "We would only spend a week or so out at a time so I have never had to go for 2 years without a shower." She was warming up to Cain, it was nice to have someone to talk to again.

Ryssa laughed, "I think we both need a shower, to be honest, we had them at the compound and it was the best thing to come back from a supply run and have a nice hot shower." She spoke as though he knew exactly where she had come from, forgetting that she had told him almost nothing about herself.

Ryssa felt her stomach grumble as she smelled the food. "Thank you, it's more filling than apples, that's for sure." She said, smiling. She took the bowl and spoon and began eating, she felt the warmth spread through her and she grinned. "This is delicious!" She said happily.

Ryssa set up the burner with no trouble and then just waited for Cain to return. When he got back she looked at him as if to say 'there you go, told you I could set it up.' She smiled sweetly at him and moved to sit with her back leaning up against a counter again. It felt good to have a purpose...

Ryssa laughed, "Of course I know how to set this up! I have done it so many times on supply runs..." She trailed off, the sadness showing on her face. She took a deep breath and continued, less enthusiastic this time, "Yes, I can set it up. Go do whatever you need to do and I'll have it ready by...

Ryssa looked down at the floor, betrayal... That was something she hadn't experienced, maybe because the only people she put trust in were those that didn't let her down. Unfortunately they all died. She looked up again when Cain said he was going to get some things to cook with and she nodded...

Ryssa looked up at the man, Cain, he said his name was. "I'm Ryssa." She responded softly, "So, Cain, how is it that you're alone? It's much safer in groups, you have someone to watch your back." She wanted to know, not for any particular reason, she was just curious.

Ryssa finished boarding up the windows and walked slowly back to the front where she could see that the man was setting out candles for light. She quickly dried her eyes and hoped that it wouldn't be obvious that she had been crying. She sighed and sat down with her back against one of the...

Ryssa nodded and carried the boards over to the other side of the store, there were three windows this side and she got to work boarding them up. As she was busy she thought back on the times she spent helping the soldiers out. She missed those times, sure, she had no friends her age but the...
