"Are you sure you're ok, Kurty?"

*Sigh*

"For the fifth time, yes, Grandma"

"Good. What happened can be traumatizing don't you think? You can talk to me if you want sweetie"

"I'm fine, I'm not the victim, you shouldn't get worried about me"

"You know I will always get worried about you"

*Sigh*

"I'm going home. Are you going to stay here?"

"Yes. If it was me I would want to see someone related to what happened when I woke up"

"Oh? What a gentleman hehe"

"Whatever..."

"See ya, sweetie, mwah!"

"Bye, grandma..."

She's a handful but she's a really nice person.

She wants everyone to think that she's strong, and she is, but I saw her crying when I told her what happened.

I really love her though.

Let's see...

Roxanne Summers, 20 years old.

Is she a girl? boy? I have no idea.

Says here she's female.

I would have no idea if I didn't read this.

First time I saw her I thought she was a boy.

Hmm...

Looks like the only person in her contact list was Grandma.

Is she an orphan? I'm not sure.

I shouldn't meddle too much.

In any case, I need to be there when she wakes up.

She's probably going to think it was some sort of weird fever dream.

But before she wakes up and tells everybody, I need to explain everything.

She probably has a Stand but she hasn't awakened it yet.

I wonder what it is.

The robber's was lame but it fit with his personality.

He mentioned a "boss" so there's already a group of Stand users using it for crime.

I don't really want to get involved.

But today proved that Stand users are fated to meet each other.

*Sigh*

What a pain.

I think I could defend myself in most cases if it happened again.

But I don't know about her.

Should I get involved?

We don't have anything to do with each other.

Excluding Grandma.

Looks like she gave her a job.

I don't know why but I want to protect her.

If it was a child it wouldn't be so weird though.

She's a grown woman, right?

Still, a grown woman with a weapon she doesn't know how to use is still a defenseless grown woman.

Fuck it, let's help her already.

I opened the door to her room quietly as possible.

It's dark in here.

Before I turn on the lights, I saw what looked like to be a pair of silver dots shining in the dark.

When I turned on the lights there was nothing there.

Bizarre.

There's an androgynous woman in the bed.

She has short hair and light brown skin.

Her nails are painted black and there's a tattoo that looks like a strange deformed letter A with a star in the middle.

Is staring a crime?

I hope not.

I see her moving in the bed.

"Uhh... Mrs. Jackson give me five minutes and I'll get up. We don't need to work every day right?"

"..."

"Mrs. Jackson?"

She opened her eyes and stared at me for five whole seconds before recognizing who I am.

"Wait you're not... AH! YOU ARE...!"

"Don't scream"

"Uhm... Where are we? Did you kidnap me or something?"

"We're in a hospital"

"Oh"

She looked around for a bit and then stopped like she remembered something.

"Wait! What happened with the guy?! And you had a... What the fuck happened..."

"Don't talk so loud"

"Why?"

"I'll explain everything when we get out of here"

"What? Why?"

"Nobody is going to believe you and they will probably think you're crazy"

"Oh... You're right..."

No, I'm not.

With aliens and everything going on someone is probably going to believe.

And this someone is probably going to be someone from SHIELD or something.

It would probably be bad for us.

"Um... Where are we going to go when we leave?"

"Your house?"

"I don't have one, I sleep inside the store"

"The store is closed and being investigated by the police"

"So? Where I am going to go?"

"You can sleep at my house for a while"

"What?! I can't do that! I don't even know you"

"My grandma is your boss"

"Mrs. Jackson?"

"Yeah. I don't want to bother her by sending you to her house"

"Why not?"

I don't want to get her involved.

"She's old and she needs her peace"

And I don't want you to be alone.

"I see"

And I want to be near you.

"What's your name by the way?"

"Kurtis"

"My name is Roxanne, nice to meet you ghos- Kurtis"

What was she going to call me?

Doesn't matter.

"I brought you this"

I took two plastic containers with cake and two cans of soda.

"Is that for me? You didn't need to"

"I'm hungry"

"Is that so? Then I'll help you eat it"

She smiled and took the cake like she has never eaten before in her entire life.

"Also I brought you this"

I gave her the DVD player I saw her watching in the shop.

"OH, MY GOD! Thank you so much"

She turned it on.

It's... The Simpsons?

I listened to it while eating my piece of cake.

"I'd say this vessel could do at least Warp 5!"

"And let me say may the Force be with you!"

"Do you even know who I am?"

"I think I do, aren't you one of The Little Rascals?"

*Chuckles*

I don't get it.

But her laugh was cute.

I'm glad she didn't think of me as a creep.

I just invited her to my house but she didn't think so much about it.

Maybe she trusts me because of Grandma.

Or maybe she's an airhead and would go to anyone's house.

"Hm?"

She noticed me staring.

"Ah! I-I..."

"Oh, you don't get it?"

"Huh? Ah, yes"

She turned the DVD player to me and rewound a little.

"The guest star in this episode is Leonard Nimoy, he was Spock in the Star Trek TV show"

"Hmm"

"This is Quimby, the Mayor of Springfield.

He's really incompetent and dumb so he thought Leonard Nimoy was from Star Wars so he referenced the 'May the Force be with you'

The Little Rascals was a TV show that ran from the 1920s to the 1940s.

I guess it was a popular show for the kids at the time and the writers watched it and sometimes referenced it.

I watched it one time and all I can say is that it's definitely from its time"

"Hm"

"You see, The Simpsons is a high form of comedy and you need to have a huge IQ to understand all the references"

"Or be a huge nerd"

*Chuckles*

"Maybe so"

She chuckled and smiled at me before turning back to the DVD player.

"Homer! There's someone here who says he can help you!"

"Batman?"

"No, he's a scientist"

"Batman's a scientist!"

"It's not Batman!"

*Chuckles*

Ok, I've decided.

I want to protect her.
