So wat's yer name, kid? *looks at you with a scowl* My name is Zipporah Gold. Why? Is that important to you or something? It's not like I commited murder or anything. *raises eyebrows* I don't see why my name is any of your buisness.*eyebrows go down*
You got a nick-name or was 'dat it? *leans back on chair* Well, usually people call me Zippy but if you wanna get on my nerves, *glares at you* which you better not, *stops glaring* some people call me Goldie. I really don't like that name so you better not spread that around ya hear?
Where you from, anyways? Well I did live in New Jersey but then I had to uh... move here. Reluctlently of course. Why would anybody willingly become a Newsie? I could be going to school and then get a decent job when I get older but no, they made me move here. FUN FUN FUN!
Whadd'a yah look like? *raises an eyebrow* You're not working with the bulls are ya? *you shake your head* Oh okay well then I have dark wavy hair down to my neck. I am about 5 ft tall and I am skinny of course. Who can get enough to eat with this kind of job? I have brown eyes which some people say are very pretty but I don't beleive them. Why should I?
Got any 'ahhh, distin'guishin charact'ahristics? Well not really. I am just like any other Newsie around here. I have a very disturbing past which I won't talk about.The name Goldie has to do with that past, that's why I hate it when people call me that.
If you emptied out yah pockets on dis' table right now, wat would fall out? *empties pockets* Well let's see, a hair ribbon, two bits gotta save that for later, a button and that seems to be it... *narrows eyes at you* you sure you're not with the bulls?
How'd you find 'da place? *looks at you like your the stupidest person in the world* Uh, I live in Ocean Side genius. *mumbles to self*:the idiots they let on the street these days:
You drink, smoke, gamble... I cough too much if I smoke and I drunk from time to time but not often. Gambling *smirks* yeah I think I have done that a few times *smirk turns into a sly smile* *laughs*
Related tah any'bady we'd know? *puts arm on table and rests head on head* No, no not that I can think of but if ya see anybody that seems related to me you just let me know okay? *you nod your head uncertainly* Good you just do that.
Who's yah best friend? Catherine O'Malley. Knew her back in Jersey. We still keep in touch a little. We were inseparable back then. We sat at the same bench in school, we ate lunch together, we played together and helped eachother with our chores. Yeah *smiles* back when we didn't know anything about starvation, depression, danger and making it out on your own. We were oblivious to the real world.
Got any woyds tah live by? Yeah *chuckles* don't die on the job. My father always said that to my brother when he was a messenger boy. I always laughed at it but now I take seriously, *puts on a serious face* very seriously.
