『 ダイヤモンド 』 — he noticed her drawing CLOSE, but opted not to mention it. he wasn’t complaining – plus there was a good chance she was SCARED, or, at the very least, was nervous. the tone of her voice suggested discomfort, so he didn’t doubt it. he was glad that he could be some source of COMFORT to her in their shitty situation.
❞ hm? yeah i guess we could try – though i don’t got much money on hand… ❞ he took a moment to RIFLE through his pants pockets, drawing out several crumpled yen notes. when he counted up how much he had in total, scrounged up over the last few months, he had ¥2800. he didn’t know how far that’d get them, but it would definitely get them CLOSER to their destination.
❞ a'ight, i got ¥2800 on me – ’m not sure how far that’ll get us, but it’ll shorten the walk at the least… ❞
he turned then, stepping onto the curb & looking out onto the road. it was busy, given the time & placement, & after a few tries – waving his hand as they PASSED them by – he managed to hail a taxi.
She was... glad he didn’t mention anything
about her moving closer to him. If he did,
it would have made her feel... well,
embarrassed. She was already anxious
enough about the situation itself. Internal
sign of relief would be given as she takes
a step away from him, trying to keep
some of her pride.
‘ I think I have a little bit of money myself ----
I knew I shouldn’t have spent so much on lunch.... ‘
At this point, she’d dig in her pockets herself -
a measly ¥500 - that wouldn’t be enough to
get them much further - even with the ¥2800
he had on him. But at least it would get them
closer than they would be by walking, that
was a relief at least.
‘ I’ve got ¥500 to contribute - I’m not
sure how much more it’ll help but -- ‘
She’d respond, stepping closer to him as he stands
towards the curb. Small huffs of aggravation - or
quite possibly anxiety being given as the cabs kept
passing them by - would they even be able to get
one at this rate ? A rather large grin would come
across her features as he finally flagged one down,
thank goodness.
