As he approached, he tilted his head thoughtfully, curious about the design of the fountain. It wasn't too different from fountains at some of the homes his uncle had taken him to in the past, except that he'd never seen a fountain with a dragon on it. Squinting curiously, Kenneth's toes bumped up against the edge of the fountain as he tried to get a closer look.
What sort of dragon was that supposed to be? Yulietta needed a bit of a breather after lunch with her uncle Kennedy and his family. It had been a great time, don't get her wrong, and despite them telling her she was part of the family she couldn't help feel like an eighth wheel. That and she wasn't used to being surrounded by...a lot. Her social battery had drained.
Taking a walk outside, she drifted towards the fountain. She's always thought it was an interesting thing, but never dared get near it. Something about the cherubs and dragons made the hairs at the back of her neck stand. Were they staring at her? No. She had to be imagining it. Either way, she fished out a coin and tossed it into the fountain as an offering. Maybe a little sacrifice would make them not look at her.
Her coin never made it into the fountain. Her throwing skills were terrible and ended up bouncing off a boy standing near it. Embarrassed, Yulietta covered her face in her hands, face flushing.
Just. Her. Luck.
