Opel was mortified. Stuck in the heat of the moment, she started, staring up to Percival with a stunned expression on her face, orange eyes wide, after he had asked his question. "U-Um..." she stuttered, not being very good at hiding her emotions. "N-No... I'm f-fi-fine..." Wringing her hands together, the Mareep girl reflexively twitched her ears(?), her tail quickly swinging back and fourth in worry. "D-Don't worry a-a-about me-e..."
Quickly, Opel jumped, using one hand to keep herself, for the most part, from falling back onto the floor as she dangled a few feet in the air, the other to try to grab the wool she had paid for, leaving the trinket in its sitting position. As fascinating as she found it, she did not want anything bad to happen due to her taking it with her, so she did not. With her bag of coins in one hand and the wool in the other, both feet now glued to the floor, she let her guilt take over her as she yelled, "I-I-I'M SO S-SORRY!" and booked it out of the shop, tears in her eyes.
Due to not being able to see very clearly, the Mareep gijinka ended up walking away from the infirmary instead of heading back, unsure exactly where she was about to end up. Stumbling about, the short girl felt an oddly soft something come into contact with her face, her tears accidentally disappearing into the fabric. Keeping her rather weak grip on her things, Opel looked up to the face of a woman, purple scales shocking her for whatever reason. "S-Sorry, m-m-miss..." she said to her, sheepishly, moving her coin pouch to her other hand so she could wipe the excess tears from her eyes, backing up multiple steps. "I-I di-didn't s-s-see you there-re..."
Her peripheral vision showed her something she did not, in fact, like at all to see- shops and other buildings she barely recognized. Rarely did she ever go to this half of the town, seeing as everything she needed was either supplied at the infirmary or bought in a close-by, surrounding shop. Freaking out, more tears fell to her cheeks and the ground around her as she whipped her head around, searching for her home. "Oh, NO-O-O!" Opel wailed, collapsing onto the ground mere feet from the woman and whoever she was talking to, her things safely tucked underneath her as she held her face in her hands. "WH-WHE-WHERE A-A-AM I-I!?" she choked out, darting her head around one more time for any sign of the infirmary, but it was too far away and the town was too crowded to see it, not to mention her tears, which also got in the way. "WH-WHE-WHERE'S M-MISS-SS I-IDE-IDE-IDELLA!?" For a moment, Opel glanced back up to the Arbok woman, almost as if she though she would help her, before returning to the hidden spot in her hands.
