Ryla had just returned home from Tatooine, there was a rumor that a man that looked somewhat like her father; (at least what she thought her father looked like from what she could gather,) was back on Corellia... It was funny she thought, if she had justed stayed home, she probably would have ran into him. But in stead she runs across the Galaxy to try and find him. Of course, it wasn't confirmed yet, which is why she was there, to confirm it. The first thing though was to go back to her old home City of Coronet, where she would go back and temporarily work for her old imployer.
She did however, incounter a problem...Namely, the old shoppe she had spent so much time in, was closed...Permanently. She looked at the sign that said, Gone out of buisness, bankrupt! Which was odd, it hadn't been that long ago sense she left and the old man had plantey of money, why where they now dead in the water?
Another man walked up beside her, and spoke, "Yup, the old man is apparently sellin' it, to bad, i worked here after his first hand quit." Ryla's eyes went wide hoping he wouldn't recognize her. Fortunatle he wasn't actually looking at her, Uhh... where he go to? Ya know? The taller boy nodded, "Yeah, he's got a tent that he works in tell he finds another cheap spot to set up, i help him out still, but i had to come here cause the guy who's supposed to buy it is gonna be here, had to keep a watch out for him. Say what's your name?" He turned and Ryla was no longer there.
Instead she was now looking for her old boss to find out what had happened.
After a while of searching she found the man who had loaned her the money, the man whom she had worked for as her summer job. He was somewhat like an uncle to her. She walked up to the tent's counter, and he didn't recognize her for a moment, then a warm smile crept onto his face as he did remember her little smudged up face. "Ryla, what are you doing back here, your mother's still looking for you!" Ryla shrugged as she dropped the back pack and knelt down and unzipped the pouch on her boot, Came back to pay you back, and i was hopeing to stay at your shop while i looked for my Dad, rumor has it he's in town. The older man, was visibly older, stress had gotten to him she guessed, But apparently the shop ain't 'round much more? She said, and got a regretful nod out of the old man. "Your mother, got mighty upset when you ran off, but i covered for you, said you got kidnaped, took my money though your mom did, had to close the shop to get by."
Ryle sighed, Great, it's my fault! she thought to herself. Before handing the credits that she owed to the man. "Now those credits where a gift Ryla, you don't need to pay them back!" Ryla shook her head stubbornly, Yeah but you need it, besides i managed to get some money recently... She wasn't going to say how or where she got the money, so she grabbed her bag and slung it over her shoulder, K, reason i came by went south, so i best be gettin' a head start. Seeya around! Before he could say anything more to her she was leaving the tant, then on the street again, Quick to cross it before speeders desided to turn her into a pavement stain.
She started her search where she always did, in a bar/resturaunt combo. Food was up first, then rumor picking, and by the end of the day, she would find a place to stay (hopefully) and the next day find some way to pay for the next.
Another sigh left her as she sat down at a booth seat in a corner of the resturaunt half of the building. She sat the backpack down in the corner where she could easily grab at it, but no one else could. She slung her left leg onto her right knee and unzipped the pouch again grabbing enough credits to pay for a meal and a drink. And waited for someone to take her order.
Soon enough a waitress did, the look on her face was that of all other waitresses who saw a little girl sitting alone in a place like this. It was forcefully replaced with a smile, "Will someone else be coming?" Ryla shook her head and began to speak, Nope i was just hungry... "Then what is it you want hun?"
Ryla looked to the menu and picked out a few things, Bantha Burger, and a... fruit aid. Ryla didn't see any real options for flavors so she guessed it delt with random fruit poured into one glass...
A long day, had just begun...
