Hand in hand (Cove/Serafina) Dec 2, 2020 9:11:17 GMT -5

It was a misty late afternoon as Serafina was walking back from getting some supplies for home, it was her turn to cook dinner that night. She really had no idea what she was going to cook, not that her mother liked her cooking. She did wonder why her mother insisted that she make dinner if she didn't like her cooking. She looked at her bag with the veg and meat that she had, maybe a stew she thought that might be good. It was getting that way that they would need some warmer foods. She liked to have strews and cobblers at this time of year, she did wish she could make some dumplings that could go with it. She wouldn't know where to start.

She was walking towards home but she didn't want to, she felt like she should just go and not come back. She looked out to the bay area where you couldn't see much the fog was getting really thick and the wind was a bitter cold. She sat down on a near by bench so that she could at least drag out going home and really she liked sitting here to watch everything go by and the people that were walking by. It was very interesting to see people that were walking around and what they were up to. She often wondered what they were doing or where they were going. Serafina would often sit here and make up some stories of what people were doing.

As Serafina sat there she took notice of a face that she had seen many times walking past as she sat here. She smiled as she often did as many walked by her. "Good Afternoon." She said kind hoping that the person would stop and talk to her or as many so did walk by and say nothing.

They'll either want to kill you, kiss you, or be you.

Cove Merrick

Cove's notice of the weather change had it in that the beach goers would start dwindling except for the more hardcore that liked that kind of thing. The colder weather and the windier the better for the waves. He had been known in his youth, before marrying and having children of his own, to be the one to go out in a wetsuit in almost frigid temps just to snag a wave or to bodyboard just to be kin to the water. He was born with saltwater in his veins and the longer he went without the waves, the more he became inclined to tread the depths.

Today's temperature, although quite chilly to most, had dressed himself in a wetsuit taking his oldest girl out in the waves for a little bit of time before his wife came to collect her for school work. Such a tiny girl she was, he made sure that her time in the water was limited. Hyperthermia was in no way his intention for even his own blood kin. He'd went to the dressing rooms to change, coming back out and noticing a girl sitting on the benches without even trying to tread the beach. The recognition of the girl wasn't completely automatic as he don't remember her ever coming to the beach for lessons nor had he seen her before in dawn patrol.

Hodad. He thought curiously as he tugged the light jacket closed in front of him, carrying the bag containing his wetsuit and other items on his back. His surf board was tucked neatly under his arm.

"Good afternoon, yerself. Why so glum, chum?" She had to be no older than his daughter. Her bags of grocery items sitting beside her told him immediately that she longed for something she couldn't have, otherwise, she wouldn't just be sitting there with her destination going sour. He paused a few steps after talking to her, righting his board up so he didn't have to hold it any longer. "What you making tonight?" He asked, eyeing the opened portion of the bag.

She had not expected anyone to stop and talk to her. Normal they would walk on by. She thought what was so special about today. Maybe it was just that kind of day, or maybe it was just that he wanted to talk, who knows she thought to herself. It could be how to look she also thought to her self. You have a face like thunder she continued the voice that was talking to her or was it just how she was feeling about her mother making her go out and get these items. She looked up at the older male, she thought that it was rather cold to go to the beach but then again many of District four like to be on the beach.

She couldn't help but chuckle to herself as she looked at him. "Nothing much, just do get on with my mother that much," Serafina said with a bit of a sign to her tone of voice. She wished that she did, but when her mother much prefered her older sister who lived elsewhere she was always getting the brunt of her mother disappointment Serafina was always wanting to be away from her. Serafina looked down at the bag that she was carrying with the food that was going to be tonight meal. "I am planning on making a stew," Serafina said looking up to the male who seemed rather nice. "Hi, I am Serafina." She said wanting to introduce herself.
