Luminista laughed. "That's it? You're sorry for that?" She continued to laugh. It's a bad thing to be hungry when your rich? Is that why half of them are so fat?
She couldn't help but laugh more after thinkign that. She was sitting here starving half the time. And the rich it's rude to be hungry! How different there worlds were.

"I don't understand?" Why was she laughing? Did everyone out here laugh at rudenes? "Yes? I'm sorry for beign rude?" Rosalynn looked questiontingly at her new laughing friend and continued ot try to understand.

Eventually her laughing died down enough for the young girl to speak. "Rude? It's rude to be hungry? That's funny!" She said vocalizing some of her thoughts. Half of what she thought she was going to keep in her head because that would be truly rude. She didn't need to be creating enemies purposely. Her race helped far to much in creating enemies she didn't need to be adding to it on her own.

"I'm sorry! I didn't mean to say the wrong thing." Rosalynn's eyes went back down to the ground. She should have thought about this. Of course there was a difference in manners the way her family and their friends behaved wasn't the way everyone did. "I'm sorry."

Finally she got back return of her laughing. "Don't apologize. You did nothing wrong." Lumi said as she wiped away tears that started to form from laughing so hard. "I should be apologizing. I shouldn't have laughed like that. Food... just isn't a luxury for me." Her tone was just stating fact. Long ago she accepted how her life was. Crying about it isn't going to get her anything. She's a Roma, of course she's not going to have everything she wants or needs.

"Why?" Rosalynn's face was confused as she looked back up at the blond girl. She just didn't understand... how could food not be a luxury? Her family always had more than enough to eat didn't that mean that there was enough food to go around?
how different was this place from what she was used to? she hadn't expected this many changes just by going outside for a few hours.

"Why?" That was a good question. If it was because she was a Roma, she would be the only scruffy kid on the streets. She definately wasn't. "It's because I have no money," she deduced. "Many people in London don't have enough money to buy food or clothes that they need."
The young Roma girl decided to leave out the fact that those people that didn't have money also don't have a place to call home. She had nowhere to go but an alleyway... or if the nighthingych shooed her from there up a tree somewhere else. The places where the other kids stayed, Luminista wasn't exactly welcome.

"money is really that difficult to get?" This was just getting more and more confusing. "but if people need things like food and clothing why wouldn't they make them more afordable......." Food was necessary to live..... and her family had so much all the time that it had to be pletiful....... so why did somepeopel not have any? surely people didn't just sit back and watch as their neighbors starved to death?

"The people that supply the food and clothing need money too. If they made their goods cheaper, then they would be in the same boat as the rest of us."
Luminista completely ignored how difficult it was for some people to earn money. She had heard a fair share of how it is nearly impossible for her kind to earn fair clean money. She was a prime example on how if you can't get the items fairly, it has to be taken unfairly.

"It just all dosne;t make sense..... whats the point of money if it keeps people from the things they need?" How was it that the outside world was so completely different from the world she knew normaly...... It was so odd and confusing and it didn't seem right at all.

"People are greedy and want all they can have and give nothing in return. I suppose that the rich could give some of their money to us, then we can pay for food. But they don't want to do that."
Luminista rocked on her feet not putting a single thing she said to heart. It was just how things were, and being so young and a Roma doesn't help her change the world. Right now, there is nothing she could do. Rosalynn might be able to do something for them, or at least for her. But most likely, it would be ignored as well.

"It still doesn't make sense." How could people let other people starve? "I;m sorry." Rosalynn didn't know what else to do but apologize for her ignorance. Not that it was her own fault but still.
