Jeff lead Ana to the food court at the mall. There were all sorts of restaurants there and he was starving. He wasn't sure where he wanted to go, and for some reason he'd rather go where Ana wanted to go anyway. So he turned to her and asked ", Um, is there anywhere in particular you'd like to eat?"

"Ummm... Maybe the Chinese place... I've always wanted to try Chinese food," Anna said. Then she grimaced. "Ummmm... I don't have any money," she said.

"Oh...right," he dug into his pocket to see if he had any. He pulled out a $50 bill, a bit surprised. "I can pay for it," he offered.

"It's n-nothing, hehe..." He approached the Chinese food counter. The employee luckily didn't find it odd that there were two kids between 10-12 years old there without parents, he'd seen his fair share of strange things. Jeff ordered what he wanted then turned to Ana ", Um, your turn..."

Anna ordered some sushi and egg drop soup, nothing too expensive.

"Are you sure that's all you want? I mean, you can get more if you want you know..." Jeff asked as he paid for the food.

"I ordered a lot of sushi. It's ok," Anna said. "Besides, I feel bad because you spent your money on me."

"Well alright...but if you want more then I have plenty of money," Jeff replied as he took his food back to a table and sat down.

"It's fine... I hate having to see you use your money on me," Anna said, frowning. "It seems unfair."

"I don't think so, I think it's plenty worth it but thanks for caring," Jeff replied taking a bite.

Jeff ate in silence for a few minutes. He wasn't sure what else to say, it was very awkward. He hoped that she would say something first because he wanted to talk.

Now Anna's voice was so soft and so sad as she spoke. "Have you ever... lost someone close to you before?"

Jeff looked up from his food and stared at her for a moment, thinking about it.
"Um...I'm not sure, I haven't seen my Mom for...I don't know how long. Never really knew what happened to her," Jeff answered ", And my Dad...he sent me to a boarding school and I never saw him for ten years. Other than that not really."
