For a second or two, the young lady studied her customer, his ‘fancy speech’ seeming to require a bit of time for her to understand.
❣ ❛❛ Uh...are you asking me to change my out of my uniform? ❜❜ She needed to clarify before she glanced over her shoulder, pondering the idea. She honestly wouldn’t mind getting back into her regular clothes, but it was an odd request. Nearly all the customers came because of the outfits.
❣ ❛❛ I don’t think I’m allowed to, but my boss probably wouldn’t fire me... ❜❜

" the beach? alright. " Zhora played it off very casually, but he was feeling rather excited for the weekend. he wasn't going to refuse an invitation from HIM of all people. even if it meant he was going to have to move some things around (because he would never leave a precious Saturday completely open).
“ we should leave in the morning so we can spend a good amount of daylight by the water. I’d love to stay and see the sunset as well, if you have enough time today. “ maybe the stars, too...
// “ There’s some roadside restaurants near the beach. We could have dinner there and watch the sunset. It’s been a while since I’ve been to the beach. ” As much as he hated sand, the idea of the location was enough to keep coming back for.
“ Either that or we could make our own food and bring it there, like a picnic or something. You mentioned you liked to look at stars too right? We can stay there during nighttime too if you want. ” As casually as he played that off, he was nervous to be rejected. Since high school, he’s never personally invited someone out on an outing, especially a neighbor.
// A total of 15 cm taller. Hair a different colour. Yuu got skinner and wore glasses now too. With how much he’s changed, it would be difficult for anyone to recognize him from way back then.
He’s changed, why hasn’t this person? As soon as he walked through the door, Yuu felt fear freeze every muscle in his body. After a moment, he forced up a smile.
“ W...Welcome dear customer... ”

Chang-Mi lost track of how many times he woke up just like this- at the point it’d gotten to, it should have become routine. the boy knew he could do no more than wait until it was over, and that once it was everything would return to they way it was before. and yet EVERY single time, no matter how much rationalizing he tried to do- even if he knew it all wasn’t real- he just couldn’t shake the images of the things he saw from his mind or the emotions that came with them. not when they could so easily become reality.
he tried his best to keep quiet so he wouldn’t disturb his roommate again. no matter what he saw or what he feared would be done to him, he wanted to keep those feelings as his own. Chang-Mi didn’t want to be a burden any more than he already was. he spent his entire life being a hindrance to everyone- getting out on his own was supposed to be his new beginning... the time when he finally created some semblance of a normal life without all of the TWISTED things in his head ruining it for him.
he wanted to be silent... but he HAD to stop this. if he could just say something or move- he could break out of the world he was trapped in. all he could mange to get out were short breaths and soft whimpers. he couldn’t move from the tips of his fingers down to his toes, so he laid STAGNANT on his back forced to look into the darkness. what he FEARED just wasn’t done with him quite yet.
but then the light was on, and there was another voice. the weight on his body was receding, and the tension around his throat was fading as well. he kept a few short moments for himself to try and calm down, Chang-Mi turned from his back onto his side (facing AWAY from his roommate) and pulled his blanket up to his shoulders.
" no, I’m okay. It's- you can just go back to sleep. I-I’m sorry for-.... I didn’t mean to wake you up... " and he was sorry that he was stuck with such a SORRY person for a roommate and a friend, too...
“ sorry... “
// His eyes moved to the time on his phone. Still another hour until the sun rose but now he was basically awake. Once his eyes opened, it was difficult to make them close again, especially if he looked at his phone. With a sigh, he searched for the light switch to the lamp on his right, dimming the light a little so it wasn’t so harsh on his eyes.
“ It’s okay. I’m awake anyway. ” He rubbed an eye, feet gingerly touching the floor at how chilly it was. From where he was sitting, he couldn’t even begin to imagine what kind of face Chang-mi was making, much less what sort of thoughts must be running through his head. They had only been roommates for about two months but he already was somewhat aware that Chang-mi had some problems of his own. Though he didn’t think it was this bad.
So far, they got along well- at least in Jirou’s eyes; he never had anything to complain about. However he never really talked about anything other than weather or who’s turn it was to replenish the toilet paper.
I guess it’s nice to wake up before the sun does every once in a while. He thought, too tired to feel irritated from being woken up. Having no experience with this sort of thing, he pondered what was the best course of action. Obviously, with the way Chang-mi was turned away, talking about it wasn’t the best thing to do. Maybe just showing he wasn’t angry would do the trick. “ I’m going to make breakfast. Do you want toast or rice? ”

" just for a bit. " Zhora answered with a smile, so he wouldn't think that he was upset by him falling asleep during their time together. " if you want to rest a little longer, you’re welcome to use the bed. " sure, he could also just go back to his OWN bed (next door) to sleep, but... that wouldn’t be beneficial to himself.
// Given that his apartment was a little walk away, it wouldn’t be too much trouble to go back there but he had just finished a 72 hour on call shift, the little walk seemed like a marathon.
“ I suppose... I can sleep here until nine, but wake me when you want to fall asleep too alright? ” He never thought he’d fall asleep as soon as dinner was finished-- only father did that sort of thing!
From the couch, he dragged himself to the bed, politely getting in and as soon as he closed his eyes, fell back to sleep.
Aera was sitting at the bar, with a half empty glass of alcohol sitting in front of her. She’d chosen to go out tonight to have a bit of fun and instead came across her ex. She was still dealing with heartache from the break up. Every time she saw him somewhere, her mood soured and she turned into a sad puppy.
Blue eyes glazed at the person sitting next to her. “And if I stare too long, I’d probably break down and cry.” she commented. Aera pointed out her ex to them.
