Butter was getting bits too close to the tigers cage. "Rargle! RAWR! Meow!" She said, eying the tiger evilly. "I will make you pay for what you did to beanybeany the kangaroo, oh yes!" Butter backed away from the cage as she saw the tiger drawing nearer. "Good kitty!" She cried, running off to the monkeys.

Cocoa stood looking through the bars at the oragutans, tucking a flower from the oleander bush into her hair. The dark brown silky hair was twisted up and stuck through with chopsticks, matching her elegant (but skimpily short) Chinese dress. The bright pink flower set off her eyes; the same eyes that watching the apes' every move, studying them intensely. Suddenly, someone bumped into her, spilling an ice cold soda onto her silk dress. It wasn't just the stain seeping into her new dress that got Cocoa mad. Or the rude-ness of the obvious tourist, who hadn't even stopped to say sorry. Nor the fact that ice cold Coca-Cola was dripping down her back. But something set her off, a combination of the things, or something else entirely. Perhaps the fact she hadn't eaten since she felt guilty because of the chocolate bar she'd had yesterday. Whatever it was, Cocoa was furious. She shoved through a group of tourists angrily, heading for the bathrooms, hoping to salvage her dress.

Butter was too occupied with the dung throwing monkeys to notice much, but she frowned when she saw the girls completely ruined dress. "What a waste" She scowled, Tucking her hair behind her ears. Butter reached in her white purse and took out some serviettes. "Maybe she could use help" She said, Not actually meaning to help her, just to put the moist towlettes in the girls hand and walk away.

"Ugh," Cocoa muttered to herself, looking at her drenched dress in the bathroom room. "I just bought this thing," she growled, grabbing some paper towels and wiping the front. She started cursing the drink-spilling tourist, but it quickly moved on to all tourists. "On top of that, I didn't even get to research the lemurs yet!" she yelled, forgetting she was in public.

Butter bunched the towlettes in her hand, walking into the bathroom. When she spotted the other girl, she Tapped her on the shoulder. "Miss?" She said, confidently. "It looks like you need some help there?" She offered, walking to the girls other side.

"Oh, errrr..." Cocoa trailed off, looking at the other girl, her hand frozen in midair, dangling wet paper towels. She hadn't gotten over her rage yet. "Yes, thanks," she said shortly, grabbing the towelettes from the girl's hand. She ripped one open, wiping off one side of her dress.

"What happened?" Butter said, Still Confused as to why someone would let that happen to such a gorgeous dress. She thoughtlessly began dabbing at the dirt on her own hands.

"Tourist," Cocoa said, with a snort that made her feelings about tourists obvious. "Spilled his blasted drink on me. Do you have any idea how much this thing cost me?!" She shrieked at Butter, despite the fact she had no idea who this girl was, and also that this girl had done nothing to her. Cocoa froze for a moment, breathing heavily. Exhaling through her nose, she turned back to the mirror, wiping her dress some more.

"I totally understand" Butter said, trying to get on her toes to reach Cocoas height. "Once i bought these white pants, And when i was at the place i work, ready to get changed, you know? An idiot spilled hot fudge all over them!" She said, Sharing the girls Drama. She tried to help By also dabbing at the dress.

Cocoa slapped the girl's hand away irritably. "I can do it myself," she snapped, looking at her reflection in disgust. "It's ruined," she concluded. "Com-plete-ly ru-ined," she said, saying each syllable slowly. "On top of that, I'm going to get completely killed for not finishing my work." She put a hand to her forehead, dramatically.

"Ecscuse me!" Butter retorted, the chip on her shoulder returning. "Oh please," She said, tossing the paper towel in the garbage. "You dont have half of an idea what hard work is."
Butter was still appalled at the girl. 'I was only trying to help!' She thought, hypocritically.

Cocoa turned to the girl, her eyes moving up and down, as if sizing her up. "As if you'd know," she said with a smirk, dropping the last towelette into the garbage. "I'm sure your little cafe is SO much harder than my job," she said sarcastically.

"Id like to know what you do! Your probably one of those people who sits at thier computer all day. Your occupation is probably an online shopper!" She snapped to the stranger.
"You dont happen to know what i do. Its very important."

"And yet I could say the same thing about you," Cocoa pointed out with a sneer. "My job holds the future of the world at stake," she said, enjoying the arguement. In her opinion, this girl wasn't even cute enough to scare by flirting with. Nor even waste a kind word. She tapped her fingers on the edge of the counter, seconds from attacking.
