I'll help you carry on
He had not seen the puddle that caused his downfall.
He fell flat on his ass, a groan escaping his lips, quickly followed by a curse that made Clio squirm.
She had, but her yell had come too late. So she runs to his side, the words 'are you okay?' instinctively slipping past her lips as she falls to her knees beside him. He had to be in his late sixties. His hair was the colour of snow, peppered with grey. His skin covered with wrinkled that had formed over many years. Wiry hairs poked out of nostrils reminding her of the way weeds grew in the cracks of the footpath.
She hides a smile, helping the him into a seated position. "Did you hit your head?" She asks, her eyes examining him for any external damage. But he just grunts at her, demanding that she helped him to her feet. Annoyance began so simmer in her blood. How could he be so rude when all she was trying to do was help? But she does not let the annoyance show, instead she looks around them, her eyes searching for someone who would be able to help. After all she was just one girl, not a superwoman.
Quickly she spots a dark haired girl enter the street, Clio's voice reaching out to her for help. "Um- Um excuse me!" She yells, waving down the girl. "Do you think you could give me a hand? Th-This man fell. I won't be able to get him up on my own." She stumbles over her words slightly, she has never been one to be confident. "Please, it'll take no more than a moment. Consider it your one good deed for the day complete." Perfect, who could turn that down?
