She raised an eyebrow and took a frightened step backwards. "Is something wrong with you?"

"Well, you kinda were talking a lot right when you said that," she explained after she had stopped. "I mean, not that you do it all the time, it was just a little ironic right at that moment."

"Oh. ...I see how it is." She said unhappily, lowering her eyes. "I'm sorry, Clara."

"No, no! I wasn't saying that you were being annoying! I just found it funny! I'm sorry! I didn't hurt your feelings, did I?"

She folded her arms and sighed, refusing to look at her. With quiet little shuffling steps, she turned away from Clara just the slightest bit and whimpered.

Clara walked up to Little Red and put a hand on her shoulder. "Little Red? I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to be mean or anything."

She sniffled and whimpered some more, shrugging Clara's hand off of her. Her quiet whimpers grew into hiccuping sobs as she stomped her feet unhappily.

"Little Red, what's wrong? Are you mad at me?"

"Hmph!" She hiccupped, throwing her head back dramatically with tears streaming down her face.

Clara was starting to cry herself. "Little Red, I'm sorry..." she pleaded weakly.

"Oh, don't be sad, Clara," She whirled around and hugged her, still sniffling. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make you sad, I was just...sad," She said with a hopeful smile and a choked giggle. "Please don't be mad at me, you're the only friend I have here!"

She smiled. "Oh, don't worry. I was only sad because I thought I'd made you sad," she assured the girl. She cringed inwardly at the last comment.
Great. This is gonna be one of those pity friendships.

"Well, I was only sad because you made me sad!" She stepped back with a smile. "I guess it's okay because it's all your fault, right?"

She blinked, but forced a smile. The way this was going, she'd win a Tony award just for talking to this girl. "Well, I think we were both at fault. After all, it's never entirely one person's fault—it's a chain of events."

"Well you started it, didn't you?" She asked, confused. Her little feet shuffled around again. "I mean, I don't think I did anything..."
