"Huh?" He shook his head. "No..." He thought for a moment before reaffirming it, mostly to himself. "No. I just have frequent nightmares is all."
"Well, what are they about?" Mel asked. "People didn't just have nightmares for now reason. It must be pretty damn bad if you're walking around and sleeping in parks all the time."
He shrugged, trying to play it off. "They're just nightmares..." Something about this made him feel uncomfortable... Maybe he just didn't want to talk about it with a stranger... "Anyway, I'm starving, so... I'll see you around." Why did he want to stop talking? What was... this odd feeling?
With that, he started walking away. He really was hungry.
Mel didn't chase people, so she watched him go with a shake of her head and a roll of her eyes.
Meanwhile, Shay sat on a bench overlooking the beach with a paper bag lunch, from which she pulled a chicken sandwich out of. She unwrapped it and took a bite as she looked to the book laid open on her lap. She tried to balance eating and reading with the slight breeze coming from the sea, but it was difficult.
By the time he had wandered out near the beach, it was nearly four. Kenta was still wandering around, an endless number of things on his mind. It was too late to go to any classes, not that he cared. He had a pink-red pouch drink hanging from his mouth that said 'JELLY' on it along with something japanese written on it, and a bad crayon drawing of a strawberry on it. Eventually he would pass by Shay on her bench, though in his current state, he almost didn't realize it. A few steps by the bench, he stopped and glanced over his shoulder. He smirked, though it felt off.
"Hey, Shay." He said, turning to her. The drink was held on the side of his mouth.
Shay didn't recognize she was being spoken to at first. She was entranced in her reading and only semi-looked up when she heard a voice. When she realized who it was, Shay's full attention was caught. She paused as she stared at him. She looked down to her now half eaten sandwich and offered it to him. "Want the rest?"I'm going to put this a day or two after their last thread.
Kenta shook his head, but sat down with her. "I just grabbed something." He told her, taking the jelly drink out of his mouth. He was quiet for a bit, then asked "Do you want one of these? I got a lot of them." He smiled at her, but something seemed off.Oh, lol. I kinda thought it was the next day, but tis fine :3
Shay looked at the sandwich and took a bite. When he asked her if she wanted one of the drinks, she swallowed before saying, "What are they?" Shay imagined they were some form of juice, but they said jelly and that made her a little nervous. She hadn't liked the ice cream he'd shown her.
"Jelly juice" He told her. "Its like...jelly cubes in a sweet juice. They're oddly refreshing. Really popular back home... I've got strawberry, grape and lychee."Now that ive brought them up, i really want one T.T Theyre really good but super hard to find.
"What is lychee? Or jelly cubes for that matter...?" Shay was beginning to feel quite uncultured. She had very little understanding of half the things Kenta ate. "I guess I could try one."Never heard of 'em =o
