Ava was running to school, thinking up increasingly elaborate excuses for not having her homework, when she'd overheard some kind of argument, seemingly over some kind of accident. Despite doubting her ability to do anything about the dispute and having no current intention to attempt to do so, curiosity still managed to get the better of Ava. Not thinking to slow down as she rounded the corner, her momentary lapse in attention was enough to prevent her from noticing the girl until the moment before she collided with them. 

Ava somehow managed to maintain her balance only to be pulled down into a comically tangled mess a moment later by the girl as they attempted to right themselves by grabbing onto Ava’s brightly coloured outfit. 

By the times she’d recovered from the crash the girl Ava had collided with had already managed to untangle herself. Ava couldn’t help but notice the girls stare which stung a little, but given that she seemed to be offering Ava a hand up and for some reason apologising in spite of the collision not being her fault Ava guessed that she probably didn’t mean any harm by her staring.

That didn’t quite sound right did it? Ava grabbed the girls hand, pulling herself up as she silently reprimanded herself.
