[The other girl's reaction will catch Nike's attention. It was hard to ignore or brush it off so simply, not when it came out so genuinely. The initial reaction and her response was enough to leave Nike at a loss. How long has it been since she last spoke to someone so...honest and humble? Most people from the higher class would cast blame on the victim than admit to their own mistakes.
A soft smile will appear on her lips, a hand moving in a downward motion in an attempt to make light of the situation.]

I was looking for an excuse to get rid of this dress. Think I can get a new outfit if I show them this? [Although she was finding the positive to her earlier dilemma, concern will dawn on her after noticing the other girl's dress was filled with the same snacks she was carrying around a few moments ago.] Wait, your dress is a mess too! I'm so sorry. Did you like that outfit? I think we can fix it! We just need water and a rag and and and.... [Her mind was travelling a mile a minute as she attempts to remember the proper way to wash food stains off a dress. It was a simple enough procedure to do! Should be, anyway. Why was she have trouble remembering it? This was her time for the country bumpkin to shine!!]
