As the Janes family walked through town, Ashton kept her head down, avoiding any form of socializarion with her family. It helped, both her ability and desire to avoid talking, that Jon was chattering away with her father and sister.
"This is actually my first time at this festival!" he told Aleah. "I think we were visiting relatives during the festival last year, because I don't really remember it that much."
Aleah nodded. "Well, I hope you enjoy it. If you want anything, just tell us. I think we have enough money with us for each of us to get one or two things without having to worry too much."
Ashton slowly drifted away from her family, scanning the crowds and stall for anything she wanted to do. Then, her eyes fell on Zane. "Leah, I see one of my friends. Do you mind if I go hang out with them?"
"Oh, is this the friend you've been disappearing away with lately?" Aleah asked, stopping her father so they could talk easier. "Do you mind if Dad and I meet them?"
"I'll introduce you some time." Ashton replied, waving her sister's concern away. "Now, can I go?" She turned to her father. "Dad, do you mind?"
Mr. Janes frowned. "I was hoping we could spend the festival together as a family, but I'm also happy that you're making friends, since you've seemed so gloomy at home." He paused for a second, and sighed. "I suppose you can go, but I also agree with your sister that it would be nice to meet this person."
"Fine! You can meet him some time." she said, rushing off. "No, bye! I'll see you later!"
(By the way, Reisuke, is anyone talking to your characters yet? If not, I can send the other 3 Janes over your way.)
