Another Day of Responsibilities (Reasons)

The old school bell had a rusty loud ring to it, but to the children it was the best sound of the day. It was clear by how the population was growing by several little kids running to one individual, Faith never remembered running with this many kids at her age...then again she also walked home and didn't care what time she got out. Of course one of the twins beginning to cry along with the bell, probably irritated by the sound. Josh was no longer of the age of wrapping up and cradling, and that'd probably only annoy him more, now Faith had to search for a toy as distraction. One eye laid on the numerous children, while her hands shuffled through a bag to stop the whaling toddler.

"Here you are Joshy." Faith offered the toy truck and after a small baby debate in Josh's head he toke it in exchange for silence. Her name caught her attention all of sudden, Faith confused that it came from behind her and not from near the school. How would of Hope gotten past her? She looked in every which direction until noticing a pair of three children most likely all the same age. And Faith thought the twins were difficult, she couldn't imagine triplets.

"Faith!" Called from behind Faith, now actually her little sister. The other Faith must also be a big sister because she looked much too young to have kids, let alone children that looked older then five.

"Hi honey." Faith bent to one knee to give the traditional big hug, it was always so amazing to see her baby sister. Every single day Hope was ecstatic to see her big sister, even on the days someone upset her in school.

"Hi Josh, Hi Briar." Hope greeted with a huge smile and kiss on their foreheads. She had learned to know better then to ask about Jack's situation anymore, it only stressed out Faith or made her sad. The small girl toke it upon herself to push the stroller, though Faith toke control as soon as she almost ran into a tree within the first yard.

On the way to the path that led to the Campbell's house still stood the girl who most be a few years younger then Faith herself, and her three most likely younger siblings. It was nice to see another person actually giving the time of a day to children, most too tired and overworked to even try. It was also a funny to hear someone with the same name, that had never happened to Faith before. After day in and day out of being surrounded with children and parents it was drawing to Faith to introduce herself. Actually talk to someone around her age for a change.

"Hi I'm Faith," She greeted with a warm smile. "I just couldn't help but hear that you had the same name." For some reason she felt like giving her dorky excuse, also because she was unsure of what else to say. A small laugh followed, Faith wasn't the best at socializing anymore. Then again she was only around babies and parents, or parentally figures like Mr. and Mrs. Lexington. "This is Hope." Faith decided to introduce her younger sibling who was skipping around. At the sound of her name she came over, probably only because of the little small children underneath the other Faith.

The twins in the stroller for a minute escaped her mind. "Oh and Josh and Briar." She shifted the stroller for a better instead of them facing the direction they were headed.


((OOC: Sorry for the awkward introduction lol))

At first Faith feels a bit awkward, she should of discovered something more clever to start with. At least the other Faith seemed shy as well, just not so much so that she could still introduce herself. Something to continue on with a conversation, with someone that was actually Faith's age. One of the little boys found it hilarious that they shared the same way and Faith couldn't help but giggle along with him. "That is pretty funny isn't it?" The smile still stuck to her face, how precious it was to hear an innocent kid's thoughts.

With no need to present her own name the other Faith introduced the three rugrats scrambling underneath her feet. Faith herself bent down to one knee just as she does to hug Hope, for a proper greeting. Hope clearly pointed out her desire to not be treated like a kid, be on the same level and being talked to like a big kid. Ever since that day Faith just assumed most kids felt the same way. "It's very nice to meet you guys." Faith exchanged a quick eye contact with each. It just seemed so amazing to have three babies sharing a womb and all making it healthy and alive. As soon as the intros were complete the two little girls toke it upon themselves to run off and play with one another. How cute it was that the younger someone was the easier it was to make friends.

"Stay in eye sight Hope." Faith called out from behind her, getting a wave and a giggle in exchange that she would.

Watching the two girls is interrupted when Xavier informs Faith that they want to be just like their big sister, Faith, when they get older. The other Faith declares that it's tough work and to ask Faith for the prove. She had to attempt even more giggles as the little boy was slightly confused, asked his older sister and then turns to Faith. Was it hard work to be Faith? Certainly she believed so with Jack being gone, but that wasn't a story to share with someone you've just met, especially if Faith actually wanted to try to make friends. She considered it for a second, juggling words in her head so that she responds perfectly, after all she was answering a little kid's question.

"I'd say it's a bit difficult to be anyone." Faith explained while attempting to keep Xavier's eyes, then looking up to see the other Faith, as if to look for approval that she gave the right answer to her little brother. "But I'm sure it's just as special to be Xavier..." She wanted to mention Claire as well but she was off playing with Hope already. "And Claire, and Alexander." She reassures with yet another smile. "After all you're triplets right?" Faith asked, already assuming they were but never getting an actual answer. The young boy nodded his head with pride. "I don't know about you, but I don't see triplets very often." She went back to her feet, relieved she figured out a decent way to present the answer.

"I do watch a set of twins very often though." Faith turned her attention over to the toddlers quietly sitting in there stroller, probably ready for a nap. "They're not usually this good." She chuckled a bit before having an urge to explain that they weren't actually her children. "I watch them daily for a family who has to work a lot." Faith explained, there was a few mothers in this district that were far too young, and the last thing Faith wanted was for people to think she was one of those girls.

"Faith!" Hope called out as her and Claire were bursting back over. "Are we still going to the lake today?" She asked eagerly. The winter was quickly arising and Hope had been begging for Faith to take her to the lake after school before it grew too cold to do so. "Can Claire come?" Of course followed the question, Hope looking at her big sister as if she could decide whether or not she was allowed to.

"I think they'd all have to go sweetie." Faith couldn't help but laugh a little as Hope pleaded with her eyes. "And it's not up to me, you have to ask there big sister Faith." She explained and immediately Hope turned to ask the other Faith.

"Can you guys join us? Please, please please." Hope started off, bringing her beg to the other Faith. "It's almost cold out! And then we'll only freeze in a couple of days!" Her words ran very fast and it all sounded over-dramatic. Of course this only brought more giggles to Faith, as she watched to see if the other Faith was as easy to push as she is. "It'll be lots of fun! I promise! Please?" Finally the little red head toke a second to breath and wait for a response.
