Open starter for Taka: Want a tour through the city?
Taka and his bandmates had arrived in America a few days okay to have a few fun days before their America tour would start. They wanted to visit a few friends and just explore the cities. There were still a lot of places they hadn’t seen so far or they wanted to visit again. That morning I decided to go for a run at the beach before buying stuff for breakfast and stopping at one or two of my favorite stores around LA. He had just closed the door behind him as an idea popped up in the back of his mind.
He pulled his phone out and wrote a quick message to Aiba. It was evening in Japan now so his friend should be home by now so he could read the text rather quickly. As he had written the text he checked it again: ‘Hey Aiba! Wanna a small tour around LA all in English? If yes simply call me over face time. I will even show you the beach.’ The text was all in English and I chuckled amused to myself as I pressed send.
I began to walk up and down the street in front of my house to give the other a bit of time to call me. Aiba’s English had become pretty good and I was sure showing him around with my phone would help him to improve further. Also I was pretty sure it would be fun and that my friend would be interested in seeing LA at night. I would go to my favorite places and even show him my house if he wanted to see it.
I was honestly pretty excited about this and I hoped my friend wouldn’t be too tired after work so he could join me on this little adventure.
