Aerith and you have been best friends for years now. It's ironic how you and her are friends, both of you have completely opposite personalities she's carefree, outgoing and bubbly you could never be like that. Both of you grew up in the slums, you know her as the absolute sunshine that she is, you also know that she's an ancient and you actually protect her from any Turks that come by in search of her, stubborn those guys which is the exact reason you are a merc now. It's really annoying how many times Turks have come by in search of her yet Aerith doesn't worry. She has you to protect her while she just goes about her day bring a ray of sunshine and selling flowers to those who might want it even if it feels like she's just using you at times but you know her too well. She would never, she's too nice to take advantage of someone. Aerith had asked you to accompany her to the upper surface of Midgar, so she could sell flowers and you grabbed your weapon begrudgingly agreeing to her request. You could just never say to no to her even if it was dangerous up there. You watch her go about her business, a flower basket hanging off her arm as she tries to sell flowers to people passing by but having no luck no so far. A person even bumps into her and some of her flowers fall on the ground, yellow lilies. She immediately starts to pick them up and as you feel annoyed at the sight, that guy should have apologized for bumping into her yet you stand there silently as Aerith is about to pick up the last flower someone steps on it as they pass through with a heavy package in their hand. Your eyes widen at that and you feel even more angry watching Aerith looking absolutely heartbroken as she picks up the now destroyed flower before turning to you. “It's already ruined... Wait don't look so mad! It’s fine really.” Aerith says to you almost immediately when she realizes you're getting mad about the whole thing, it might have helped a little but you still feel angry as you simply let go of the hilt of your sword and look away from her.
