TIMELAPSE! #2: Just Not Your Typical Sunny Day!
"Cat? Cat? What's wrong?"[J and Fuuta: worried]
Before she could even answer us, she passed out, with that faint smile intact on her face.
"She's passed out. Here, let her drink this when she wakes up."[Mrs. Rin]
"Thanks a lot, Mrs Rin!"[Fuuta]
"I'll pay for that before leaving ma'am."[J]
"No need for that! That's the least I can do for my old customers."[Mrs. Rin: reassuring]
"Old and daily customers!"[Fuuta: happy]
With that, Mrs Rin left to the billing counter again. We've been visiting that restaurant ever since middle school, Mrs. Rin became an acquaintance. Usually, when we dine, we leave tabs and pay for them at the end of the month. That's how it works for us there. If anything good happened now, it is Cat passing out in this restaurant and not any other.
It took a while for her to wake up.
"I'm glad you're awake!!"[Fuuta: finally relieved]
But the first thing Cat did was look for me. Fuuta felt a bit sad, but then realised how close we were.
"J! You were right. He was snog-"[Cat; realising she was wrong earlier]
"What's done is done. Look how worried Fuuta was!"[J: trying to change the topic]
She looked at him, and he stood there staring there back at her. I'm guessing, they had a moment there.
"Let me go order something. Trying to use your brain while your stomach is empty, is futile."[J]
"What is there right now that requires us to use our brains?"[Fuuta: confused]
"Catch the hint moron! I forgot you don't have any brains."[J]
With that, I left those two to have some private time.
