His eyes widened at her finger on his lips, and he took a moment to reply with a simple, "Okay..."

Hibiki smiled, moving her hand back to where it was before, politely on her lap. "Good, I don't want to force you to say anything you don't want to. Do you have any family with you, Sol-san?", She asked curiously.

Sol shook his head, this question was easy to answer. "No. I was abandoned very young. I don't even know who my parents are, or if they're still alive."

Hibiki frowned, though it looked a little more like a sad pout. "I see...", She said, not bothering to apologize in case he didn't want her to. "So did you stay with anyone..?"

Sol nodded and grinned. "At an orphanage. It was run by some of the toughest broads I have ever met; they were nuns."

Hibiki let out a soft laugh. No wonder Sol wasn't used to be treated well. "So, they were tough on you?", She asked with a small smile. "And did you make any friends?"

"They were strict at times, and didn't take crap from nobody." Sol explained with a smile. He thought of her second question for a few moments before answering slowly. "I don't know...I didn't have a lot of real friends...I guess when I was little I had a few real buds; but that's kid stuff, it didn't last forever. People grow up and grow apart."

Hibiki laughed, nodding. It was also nice to see Sol smile, but continued focusing when he started talking about his friends. She frowned, tilting her head. It was true, she had only a small handful of childhood friends she still kept in touch with. "... What happened once you left the orphanage?"

He leaned back on his chair, balancing it on two legs as he spoke with a shrug. "I got involved with some shady stuff; gang work mostly, drug dealing and shit. I broke outta that as I got higher up in the little gang sindicate, ya know? Pretty soon I was one of the most powerful guys. It started to get kinda boring, though; I'd only wanted to join the gang scene for cash and to get myself a social standing."

Hibiki nodded, smiling. "That's quite a feat, since you look so young.", She said, looking at him with a face that said 'You can continue'.

Sol shrugged again and took a second to continue. "Then I guess...I don't know. Things got really bad; vendettas were made between gangs, people were getting killed or trafficked or whatever. And I was just trying to not get my arse blown off by some punk in a dark alley, or whatever." He paused again to rub his forehead, as if he had a head ache. "I don't know if my name was already known by rival gangs, or by even bigger people than that...but they put a hit on me. They almost killed me, and they gave me this." He pointed to his scar for emphasis.

Hibiki nodded with a small smile. "But luckally you're alive...", She said, but then frowned. "Do you need medicine for a headache? Are you up to continuing?"

"Nah, I'm fine. There's not much else to tell anyway; I ran away as fast as I could, and everything else has happened here." Sol shrugged and dropped his hand on his knee, and brought down the chair so it rested once again on all fours.

Hibiki smiled and nodded. "Lucky you.", She said. "Some visitors that stop by here were too deep over their head... They had lost their arms or legs..."

"I am lucky, I know. It doesn't make my situation suck any less, though." Sol shrugged. "But I ain't gonna whine about it."
