Jolt had just came from Manhattan and things weren't going to good, first her uncle saw her in tibby's and threatened her... again, second it hadn't been a very successful of selling, and third she was hungry, all she had in Tibby's was a glass of water,and that all equaled an angry and scared Jolt.
Jolt doesn't really get scared except her except her uncle, who always smells like beer, which makes you want to faint.
Jolt made her way to the pond, Jolt picked up a pebble and skipped it with anger, one way of getting Jolt's anger out was to either scream, which she wanted to do right now, or punch someone but Jolt usually never made that choice of punching someone, or throwing rocks.

Fear was a common thing whenever Bella went out. She was terrified that her uncle would find her, bring her home, and kill her. He had to have control over everything, and Bella was just one of those things. She shivered slightly, as she made her way to Manhattan. Mike wanted to see her that morning, so she had to skip selling as usual, and walk the distance to Midtown.
It was the middle of the day, so none of the boys would be at the Lodging House, and it was too late to sell. So there really was no point in going to the Lodging House. When Bella reached the Bronx, she stopped and decided to go down by the river. Rivers always calmed her, and they helped her inspiration take wing. She wasn't a stranger in the Bronx. The leader, Mitch, knew Mike and was on their side. Bella shuddered. Their side. It made it seem even more real than it already was.
Bella pulled her hair back into a loose bun at the nape of her neck. She didn't want to get her hair wet, because then she would be questioned when she got back. She didn't want the boys to think that she wasn't selling papers, which she wasn't, but what they didn't know wouldn't hurt them...right? Since she was Kid Blink's girlfriend, it seemed like most of the girls hated her, and the guys could care less. So far, no one had noticed that she was a spy for Mike.
When Bella got to the river there was another girl already there, she had no idea who she was. She shrugged, and lifted her skirts up so she could walk down the rocks to the river. Bella made her way silently over to the girl, but the silence was broken pretty fast. She almost got hit with the pebble the girl threw. "Hey!" She exclaimed, "Watch it."
