=ĶĶĶĶā³ Ā asuka rolled her eye as if eliās stupidity was painful, but said nothing in reply. anything she said would just make her look bad. she could either own up to the fact that she knew she could go too far sometimes, or she could just play it off and make herself look like an disrespectful bitch āāā neither of the two were things she wanted to come off as.
ā so youāll apologise to them, but not to me? youāre wasting my time too, you know āāā a cute girl like me has places to be.Ā ā she sent her hair flying over her shoulder with a flick of her wrist, tilting her head upwards so that her nose was in the air.Ā
How infuriating.
Wordlessly, Eli opened her wallet and eyed the goods that Asuka carried. Some mental math was done, and what she presumed to be the proper amount of money needed was then slide across the counter once more.Ā
āThis should be enough for her things.āĀ
Eli met Asukaās glare with a smirk on her face. Like before, she bowed her head.Ā āIām sorry for taking up your precious time.āĀ
Pyrrha boarded the train, her schoolbag held to her chest. It was another long day and it wasnāt over yet ā she had practice for several hours, and while she enjoyed it, she often considered skipping. But five hundred a session wasnāt a joke to her parents ā and she had to show she was grateful somehow. Taking a seat near an exit, she folded her legs together and shut her eyes.
However, after a few minutes, the train came to an abrupt stop, causing her to drop her bag. The contents spilled out onto the floor before her, causing her to sigh. Lowering herself to the ground, she began to collect her pens and pencils. Reaching over, she brushed someoneās shoe.
āOh, Iām sorry,ā She began, chuckling nervously.
āItās not a bother, is it?ā
The day prior had been absurdly busy, and the blonde had just barely managed to catch a train home to bring her family the goods they had asked for from Kairos. Since she had arrived back home so late, her parents persuaded her to just spend the night and catch the first train into the city in the morning. Reluctantly, Eli agreed, and now found herself seated with her blonde head bobbing up and down as she struggled to stay awake. Generally, the girl minded her own business while riding on the train and paid no mind to the redhead beside her.
As she rested her head against the window, the sudden stop caused her to lurch forward and smack back against the glass. A yelp escaped her as eyes fluttered shut, and a hand flew up to rub the tender spot at the back of the hand. It was then she heard a bag spill and felt someone brush against her foot.Ā
One cool, blue eye opened to peer at the owner of the voice.Ā
āOh, no, itās alright,ā Eli answered immediately. A weak smile was offered as she ignored the throb in her head.Ā āHere let me--...ā
The president of one of the several high schools leaned over and scooped up the remaining books and pens.Ā āIs this everything?ā
[So tomorrow is my graduation ceremony, and Iāll be pretty busy starting tonight until Sunday! Apologies in advance, but I just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Hopefully Iāll be able to log on Sunday night to work on replies for both Eli and Lonāqu, but if not then theyāll definitely be done by Monday afternoon! Have a good weekend everyone!]
Ā shikgaymi:
=ĶĶĶĶā³ Ā ā and no one made you hold up the line.Ā canāt you just accept your own faults and be done with it? ā she sneered at the other, nose scrunching in the slightest.
āAnd what about you? You should know when youāre taking things too far, too!ā Eli rolled her eyes as she snatched the bag from the counter. Exact change was placed where the bag had once been. It was amazing how much time she had wasted here arguing pointlessly with someone so stubborn.
A quick turn on her heel let Eli properly face the clerk. She bowed her head slightly.Ā āIām sorry for taking up so much of your time and for all of this commotion.āĀ She then glared at Asuka, fully expecting the other to mimic the gesture and at least acknowledge that they were both at fault.Ā
002.
Despite living in the city for a majority of his life at this point, Inigo still found himself getting lost time to time when leaving work. He didnāt mind it too much though, he always managed to find his way back to his apartment complex one way or another. Luckily he remembered some of the shops he was passing by. Overall it had been a so-so day, leaving the man exhausted.
He looked down at his wristwatch, 5PM. āWhy do I even have a watch when I have a phoneā¦ā his tired mind pondered. As he thought of an answer he realized the blur of a figure fastly approaching him a little too late, causing Inigo momentary whiplash. In the aftermath of the collision, Inigo looked down to see a blonde school girl wearing the school blazer of the school close by.
Locking eyes with the girl, Inigo said, āThere must be something wrong with my eyesā¦ I just canāt take them off you.ā
Quickly, the blonde picked herself up from the ground and brushed away any dust and dirt from her skirt. A polite smile remained her face as the two began to converse.Ā
āFlattery?ā Amusement flickered onto Eliās face.Ā āThank you, sir.ā
Her smile widened slightly as she wondered if the man used that line on every girl he happened upon. One hand adjusted the schoolbag slung on one shoulder. Ever mindful of the time, she side stepped the man. It wouldnāt be good if she was late. People did tend to visit the cafe for light meals or sweets, and so they needed her to serve as soon as possible. Ah, but she did need to make up for her actions, she supposed. The bag was quickly un-zippered and Eli searched through the items.
āHere, please take this.ā
A flier was passed to him, the font elegant and the image displaying the front of the cafe. āWe opened a few weeks ago, but with this you can still get a special discount. I had a few left, and I hope this works as an apology!ā
001.
He was glad that his workload from school had lightened up significantly, which gave him more free time. With his various papers and projects finished and handed in, he decided that he needed a breather, therefore decided tonight heād head over to Paralia. With his father out on a business trip, and his mother staying at work for a meeting it left MƤrz on his own. Regardless, he had sent his mother a text before he left from home and entered one of the trains.
He was gazing out of the window up until he hears a voice. He glances over, his red eyes falling ontoĀ a blond girl. She looked around his age, and he felt like he may have seen her somewhere before. Perhaps he passed by her somewhere at schoolā¦? Hm.
āIt isnāt, no.ā He finally says, while shaking his head.
āI hope you donāt mind if I sit here.ā
With a smile, she sat down in the available seat. The bag that she carried neatly sat on her lap, and was quickly opened in order to give access to its contents. A slim hardcover book was retrieved and quickly opened. Train rides were always offered a moment of peace. Time to get lost in your own thoughts and delve into a good novel, if you were up to it.
After a few pages were skimmed over, she began to wonder why the boy beside her seemed vaguely familiar. It should have occurred to her sooner as to why, but alas, the blonde was a bit preoccupied by the novel. Blue eyes lifted up and turned their gaze upon the other. āExcuse me, but I think weāve met before. Sort of. From our literature class a year or so ago?ā
=ĶĶĶĶā³ Ā ā itās not like i started it. ā she offered a rather sly smile, though Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā fleeting āā her lips were back in a tight frown the second eli parted Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā her lips to speak again.
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā ā and thatās the pot calling the kettle black. i have every right to be rude Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā when youāre taking up my precious time; whatās your excuse? ā
A brow was raised at the retort.Ā āNo, you definitely started all of this. No one made you talk to me.ā
āDo I really have to say why Iām being rude? Itās obviously because of you!ā
Eli-chiš
=ĶĶĶĶā³ Ā ā no, YOUāRE holding up the line. ā
asuka folded her arms over her chest, a brow raising, ā unlike you, i have places to be.Ā ā
āHah! Me? It takes two to tango, you know,ā Eli scoffed. The chocolate bar and bottle of water were put down on the counter in front of the cashier. Call it passive aggressive, but she was but there was no way she could let this girl go ahead of her now.Ā
āItās arrogant to think that youāre the only one with places to go and things to do.ā
003.
While spring had sprung and the weather was taking a delightful shift, the midday heat, or the way the sun bore down on those under it even closer to the hours where those same people had grown accustomed to it having already set, tended to deter athletes from spending the majority of their time out and about immediately after class. Especially Kyouko, who decided her time was best spent at the church, taking care of what needed to be taken care of, and then go to spend a few hours at the park. In the long run, this plan worked out well - Ā she managed to balance everything out and not get turned into beef jerky in the process. And she made good use of her time at the park, arriving later than most others and lacing her cleats as several leave, hardly noticing the blonde until she herself dribbled the ball onto the field. After a few moments of practicing some footwork - dexterity wasnāt much of an issue for her, but she felt as though she couldnāt let herself get lazy with it - she decides to approach the blonde. She somehow hadnāt run into her before, which probably meant she wasnāt from the same school, but that was never an excuse not to reach out. āHey there!ā
She jogs over to her, wide grin over her features, more excited to see someone else out this late with a soccer ball as well, than anything else. āI aināt never seen ya outĀ āround this time before. Iām Kyouko!ā
Beads of sweat had had managed to collect along the side of her face, and were quickly wiped aside by the sleeve of the over sized t-shirt. A smile was returned to the redhead as raised a hand to greet the other girl. While it wasnāt unusual for sudden pick-up games to take place on the soccer fields in the late afternoon, it was a bit surprising to see another person on the pitch when it was dark out.Ā
āItās nice to meet you, Kyouko.ā One hand was extended out towards the other girl.Ā āMy name is Eli.ā
A quick once over of the other girl was all she needed to make a few rough deductions. Though the blonde wasnāt foolish enough to voice them out loud. Instead, the student president merely nodded at at an earlier statement.Ā
āI donāt get to come out here often, so Iām not surprised we havenāt met before. Are you busy? Maybe we could scrimmage a bit.ā
Thereās not much to do in convenience stores. To begin with, it canāt even be compared to retail and clothing stores. Thereās less stock, less storage, less maintenanceā¦ The only similarity the two jobs have is customer service.
Customerās always right, they said. Eat my ass, Haruki says. Itās really not all that bad; the customers donāt linger as much in the store like they would in the clothing store she works at. When it comes to convenience stores, everyone seems to know what they want by the time they step foot into the vicinity.
Easier on her, all she has to do is stand behind the counter and man the cash register.
Itās the lull right after normal work hours; most of the business people and office workers are starting on their way homes, and students are already dismissed from school. As the sun begins to set, an orange offsetting the bright sky blue, Haruki watches the people who come and go through the convenience store. Some people stop in to buy snacks, a few others buy some drinks. Haruki rings them up, waves them goodbye with a grin before leaning forward on the counter. Much more easy-going than the retail job, but this isnāt that fun either.
The store has chimes that ring when the doors open; as the familiar tune plays, Haruki looks up from her spot to wave slowly.Ā āWelcome toā¦ Oh.ā
Entering the store, there is a familiar sight of blonde hair, tied up into a ponytail. Haruki loosens up, offers a lazy grin.Ā
āEli. Whatās up?ā They arenāt close friends or anything, but Haruki can at least manage small talk.
As unusual as it was to leave campus early, the anomaly came as a much welcomed relief. When was the last time they had finished a meeting within half an hour? Eli was unsure, but she made a mental note to thank the other members for being so prepared today. It was too early to head to the cafe to serve, and so she decided to stop by the nearest convenience store for some snacks.Ā
With one hand, the door was pushed open with ease and she was met with the cool air of the air conditioned building. The store was one she frequented due to itās close proximity to campus, but also because of an acquaintance who occasionally worked the register. When the familiar voice greeted her, Eli walked in with a smile.
āHi, Haruki. Itās been a while.ā
As always, customary greetings were exchanged; it wouldnāt do to forget her manners, even among a familiar face. The store was small, and the blonde navigated herself to the chocolate aisle mostly by muscle memory. Blue eyes gazed over the wrapped sweets, and a dark chocolate bar was selected to be the afternoon snack of the day.Ā
āHow are you and your family doing?ā
=ĶĶĶĶā³ Ā ā well, itās nice to know that youāre T H I N K I N G. ā
ā i donāt need a lecture from the likes of you;Ā youāre just holding up the line.Ā ā
āOh? Donāt you think weāre holding up the line now by talking?ā
āIf you want to get in front of me, fine. Iāve never met someone who was in such a rush to pay for some snacks at a convenience store.ā
intelligentsias
=ĶĶĶĶā³ Ā ā you know, there IS a line back here.Ā ā
āAh, Iām sorry! I had something on my mind.ā
āIāll move, but you know there is a better way to get someoneās attention aside from being rude.ā

ā } āWho still visits their parents?! Youāre even more nerdier than Ā Ā Ā Ā I thought! Take some advice from me, the wise one. Ditch your Ā Ā Ā Ā mommy and daddy and live a little. Iāll introduce you to everyone Ā Ā Ā Ā who is relatively cooāHuh? Yeah, thatās me. Whatās your name Ā Ā Ā Ā again? Eli?ā
āāNerdā? Ha! If I could go, I would, but a promise is a promise...ā
āYeah, thatās my name. Why are you so excited about this party, anyway? Itās not like itāll be different from all of the other ones.ā

ā }Ā āPsst. Hey, student body president. Are you going to that party this weekend?ā
āAh, no, I canāt make it to the party... I promised to visit my family this weekend, but judging by your grin, I assume youāre going-- Green, right?ā
