( a glance at the gum before a small nod, taking it so that the lady at the front could put it into the bag with the other things )
kaasan! how has the store been? i’ll be back this weekend for a shift.
( he instantly cheered up talking to the woman, smiling brightly )
wow, thanks for the vote of confidence...
( it was muttered but... he still went and picked up several sweet treats before taking his full arms up to the register to be put into a bag before glancing at apollo )
have anything that you want to add to the bag?
i’m not trying to…
( there’s a soft laugh, grabbing two drinks before easing the fridge door shut with his waist )
. . . you just seemed… so far from my league. so… out of my grasp?
( his gaze lowered for a second before giving a shrug )
do you want anything sweet?
i’m happy that i stayed… i got to finally meet you.
( it was stated with a soft laugh, opening the fridge door to grab a drink for himself )
you’ve been my inspiration since like… freshman year. except i’m only known for my art… you’re just… you.
which is way cooler.
i don't think i ever minded it, actually...
( his tone showing a deep sadness as he opened up )
after the ... incident, i almost had to return home and... the thought... it comforted me... that i'd... i'd be home.
( grasping the noodles a bit tighter )
... let's get drinks.
are you sure?
( there's a frown, as he glances to some of the other snacks before back to grab an instant ramen package )
you know, before i left japan... my mom and i basically survived off of these.
( then a small smile, looking over at him )
want to share one with me?
( there's a nod towards the instant noodle section... it seems bigger than that in most of the corner stores around here )
i usually get noodles, sweets and a drink... you can get whatever you want.
( a smile as he checks over the instant ramens to try to decide on one )
( there's a small blush now, greeting the woman at the front as they enter, his voice becoming softer to talk to apollo as he walked through the familiar shop )
i work here some weekends... instead of giving me money... i can get snacks whenever i want...
( glancing at him )
( there's a look of surprise at the other before his features soften, giving a small nod of understanding )
. . . thank you... and if you ever... do meet mina, please don't... tell her about that incident? i didn't tell her when it happened and... it's... i was fine. i am fine.
( he starts walking, heading towards his favorite corner store. a soft laugh floating from him, gaze glancing at apollo to make sure he’s following )
bad things have happened… those kids got expelled, mina made sure of that… but… even still, i feel safer with you around.
i’m not a fighter like you, apollo… if someone actually attacked me, i would die.
( an exhale before offering a smile and a nod )
not that i think someone would ambush me on my way to the corner store to do more than push me around but… kids at school … don’t bother you.
( gaze shifting to look over the other's cheeks, before a small smile to himself )
. . . are you sure? i... uh, i was going to get a snack since i finished my painting. just... if you want to come with me. you know, safety in numbers... or something.
