Kailen assumed it was because he looked more presentable than most people in this area even when he was dressed normally that she spoke to him. "No, but I agree that you're definitely lost. Where did she say she lived?"

She named the same building Kailen lived in. "She's my little sister, I toldher I'd come over and lend her some money for food, but she's always moving, I can never get the location right..."

Kailen looked at her critically. "Next time you come down this way, you might want to consider wearing something more casual. I know the place, though." The girl must've just moved in if Kailen didn't know her... Maybe she just preferred to go by a middle name or something. "Come on, I'll show you."

"Normally I do, but I have to run straight to work after this... thanks a ton." She replied. "What's your name?"

"Kailen. What's yours?" He started heading home again.

"Mariah." She replied. "You look troubled."

Kailen glanced at her. "Yeah, I'm worried about an old friend, but she insists she's fine. Where do you work?"

"I'm a campaign manager for the municipal elections ad am working on trying to get on the city council." She answered. "It's not a glamorous job, but it pays alright, so I try to help my sister when I can afford it."

Basically that all went in one ear and out the other for Kailen, except the first four words. "Oh? Who's campaign?" He asked, hoping that wasn't a stupid question.

"Mike Farnsworth.. the current mayor. He's running for reelection this year, which is good because nobody pays attention to municipal elections when the federal ones are going on, so I always hate when they line up. But there's a year difference so we only have to deal with the occasional rally."

"Sure. I like to feel like I'm making a difference for people. Even if I'm never famous the way Mike or anyone at the higher levels are, I can sill do my best to help the city be the best it possibly can be, and that makes me happy knowing I'm improving the lives of others."

Kailen smiled. "Your sister's lucky to have you, Mariah."

"Thank you, Kailen. I'd like to think I help." After a moment, she decided to change the subject. "You're an interesting character. Doesn't your power get a little difficult to work with?"

"What?" Kailen asked, looking at her sharply.
