Anaya smiled at him, nodding. She made her way to the door, with the help of Edge to get to the door. She closed her eyes, letting him take the lead. She shifted her weight with each step, allowing her weight to be shifted equally, making it easier for the both of them. She opened her eyes and looked up at him with a smile in her eyes.

-Next post in Cafe Shop-?

T.K. smiled slightly before taking the order of another customer. "Alright, I'll get that to you in a moment." she said, before going into the back, coming out with a rasberry iced tea. She handed it to the guy and smirked when he put some money in the tip jar. "Thanks." she said, before looking up at the guy. He was young, probably collage-age. She then motioned for the customer behind him to come forward and order, but the guy was presistant.
"You, me, coffee, later?" he asked with a smile. T.K. sighed and shook her head.
I'm taken, dude. And I'm a high school chick, not attractive for someone your age." she growled. The guy backed off with a smile.
"Good point, love." he said before walking away with his tea. She sighed and shook her head, smiling ever so slightly at the next customer, a young woman and her daughter.

"Mmmm." she muttered with a smile as they walked in, smelling the sweet warm smell of coffee and caramel. She laughed quietly at Edge's comment. "It depends on what you're in the mood for... Their iced teas... frapachinos, smoothies... pastries..." she smiled up at him. "Just ask T.K., she'll figure something out for you." she said as they made their way up the the register.
"Hey T.K." she said with a smile to the girl behind the counter wearing a black apron.
"Oh!" she almost split the coffee she was putting up on the counter, calling out, "Coffee, black!" She came back to the register with a smirk. "'Ello Ana. WOAH." she looked up at Edge. The guy towered over her. "HOLY CRAP, you're tall! And touching my Ana!" she turned to Anaya with a laugh, shaking her head. "You, me, strawberry fraps, later. We need to talk." she laughed as she looked up at Edge.
Anaya smiled at T.K., shaking her head jokingly. She looked up at Edge, and then at T.K. "Ah, Edge... This is T.K., my close friend and co-writer. And T.K., this is Edge... My dorm-mate." she said.
"Ah, Yup. We need to talk." she said. "Well, so what's it today? Sweet or bitter?"
"Don't care. It needs caffine." she said in an exasperated voice. She pushed a piece of hair from her face and looked up at Edge with an apologetic look on her face. While T.K. was turned, working on her coffee, she said. "I just got you into a huge mess. T.K.'s not a gossiper, but she'll... Be weird... In her own... little ways."
T.K. came back with a coffee, and Anaya put 8 dollars on the counter. She looked up at the tall guy. "Never seen you before and if Anaya knows you... You're a newb. I would guess an iced tea and some pound cake would be sutiable for sweet, but for bitter, it would probably be a choclate flavored half-caf." she muttered, putting her hand on her chin, stroking an imaginary beard.

HOLY CRAP! LONG POOOOOST.
Well, night!

It was the red hair that finally snapped Hugo out of staring blankly into space. A rather tall boy had just walked in with a slender girl wrapped close to him. It seemed that she was friends with the blonde barista behind the counter, judging by the way they playfully teased each other.

The last of his scone was devoured as he observed the trio joking around and smiling. He missed being a teenager like them...oblivious to the hardships of the real world. So young and full of life. Hugo let out a little sigh and sipped on his coffee, reminding himself not to dwell on such things. He fiddled around with one of his earrings as he looked out the window again, watching the group of friends in the reflection as he pretended to daydream again.

T.K. nodded. "Ah, okay. Hold on, I'll have that up in a minute." she said, smiling a little bit weaker. That guy from ealier was sitting at a table near by. The collage guy. When she looked over, she'd seen him wave at her. She scrunched up her nose and frowned before making the smoothie. She turned around and came back with the plastic cup, filled with the drink. She smiled at Anaya and smirked at Edge. "Due, whatever you did that got Anaya's attention, you did good. You are seriously a lucky bas-" she stopped herself from cursing and laughed. "A lucky dude, 'kay?"
Anaya had watched T.K. from at someone. She glanced back, finding him slightly replusive. He was staring at her best friend with a... perverted kind of stare. She frowned too, shaking her head some. When T.K. came back with the drink, she put her change into the tip jar. "Thanks T.K." and the girl behind the counter smiled at her and then grinned mischievously at Edge. Her comment made her blush lightly, bringing a sweet smile to her lips.

"You have a niece that goes here?" Diana asked as she looked around the massive library. "I hope I get to meet her. How long has she been going here?" She asked turing to Mr. Desher. As much as the library interested her she didn't make friends easily and hoped that maybe this would make the girl easy to talk to. "Oh, I sound like some sort of freak..." Diana said. She realized that it was probably awkward to be asking so many questions about his niece when she'd just met him. "I'm sorry." Diana looked down and folded her hands on her lap.

Tamani smiled, shaking his head. "No, no. Its alright." he said, turning back towards her. He shrugged. "You don't sound like a freak. If anything, you sound like your genuinely interested in getting to know other people." he said. "But, yeah, I have a 'niece'." he put his fingers up in air quotes as he said neice. "She's my best friend's daughter, and I've known her since she was 3, so, well, I guess you could say she's my neice." he glanced back the the books behind him, grabbing one off of the shelf. He flipped through it before making a curious sound and tucking it under his arm. He looked back up at her.
"Her name's T.K. And she's been going here since last year, but has lived with me for the past 2." he put two fingers up before shoving his hands into his pockets. "She's pretty cool when you get to know her. In fact, I think she's at the coffee shop now, its her shift today..." he wondered. He walked over to the check out and pulled his ID badge towards the scanner, and then putting the book under the scanner as well. When he heard the automated voice, typed in his password and then pulled his ID away.

((There's been a time change, so can we say that they had come back after the tour to the library? It would held alot. Its 3:30 now, and school is over.))

School was finally done for the day and Junko was relieved to say the least. But today wouldn't be a day for drinking she thought to herself as she came to her apartment, slipping the key into the door. Today she was going to take some time to get her work together. Something about the people she was finally meeting had gotten her excited about teaching, perhaps this was going to be a good year.

As she pushed the door open to her shabby apartment she had a great force of energy push through her and she shouted into her apartment. "This is going to be my year!" Soon, she realized she had left her door open and quickly brought her hand to her mouth, Nakano came off as nothing but strange to her neighbors already, she didn't need to make it worse.

Sipping the last of his coffee, Hugo elegantly stood up and pushed on his chair. He swept up the crumbs from the scone onto a napkin, grabbed the rest of his trash, and nonchalantly strolled over to the trashcan near the counter. He glanced up to the one they called T.K. and gave her a slight nod in appreciation for the lovely coffee and pastry.

T.K. smiled politely back at Hugo, nodding back. She then turned back to Anaya and smiled. "Well, I better get back to work." she said, waving at them before glancing around.

Anaya smiled back. "MmKay. I'll talk to you later." she said before walking over to a table nearby.

The collage guy was back in line, now leaning on the counter. "Can I have your number?" "No. Can I get you to go away? I don't date older guys." she hissed. He smiled, running a hand though his hair and then placing a hand on her's. She pulled her hand away, her other hand slapping his cheek. "Dammit, you jerk, get away!" she screamed, trying to escape the guy's grip on her shoulders. She was wide eyed now, and just terrified. She'd been through this before, and she just wasn't in the best situation to protect herself.

Hugo had been ok with just watching this college guy playfully hit on T.K. previously, but now it had gone too far. He marched over, firmly grasped he offending boy's shoulder and spun him around. Now standing face to face, Hugo stared daggers into him and in a threatening voice said, "If you know vat ist best for you, you vill leave...now."

"Fine." the guy growled. He looked back at T.K. with a smirk. "Uncle Tin sends his love." he snorted. He then flicked the Hugo off and left the cafe. T.K.'s eyes flew wide and her mouth stayed open. She leaned against the counter and covered her face with one of her hands. She began to breathe heavily before feeling a hand on her shoulder, she spun to find the hand to belong to the manger. "T.K.... Go take a day off. I'll work all of this." he said quietly with a kind face. T.K. nodded silently, walking back into the back. When she got into the locker room, she quickly changed, putting on her green hoodie and zipping it up. She then took off the apron and stuffed it into the locker. She slammed it shut and grabbed her bag. She then came out back into the front, going to the guy that helped her.
"Thank you for doing that." she said quietly, not smiling any more. She was very uspet.

"T.K.? She helped me move in when I first came here last summer and we worked together here for a while before realising my uh, disability was a liability here." she smiled somewhat, laughing at the memory. She glanced back at T.K., who was talking to an older man. She hadn't seen or heard what had happened moments ago, but her happy smile was gone. She bit her lips some before smiling. "She invited me over earlier to have curry with her, Mr.Desher and the next door neighbor, would you like to come? I just remembered that I was supposed to help her with that..." her voice trailed off and she then looked up with a smile that had 'sorry' written all over it.

"No problem. I can't stand nice people being treated like zat..." Hugo whispered to T.K. "...if you do not mind, I can valk you to your home. I have a feeling that guy ist not going to leave you alone once you leave here.". He smiled reassuringly at her, hoping she would take him up on his offer.

Diana nodded as she watched Mr. Desher get a book and check it out. Her face flushed at the thought of making friends at school this year. She knew it was an elementary school thought but she couldn't help it. "Does she work tomorrow as well?" Diana asked. She would have been more than happy to go to the coffee shop and meet her today but the tour had tired her out. Now that she knew where the dorms were she just wanted to go to her room and rest awhile.

((I don't mind. Sorry I didn't notice the time change. ^.^'))

Tamani nodded. "Yeah, she does." he muttered, thinking out loud. He then nodded, confident in his answer. "Yup, she does." He then smiled, at her. "Well, I better get going. I have to straighten up my apartment before she gets back. She should be getting off in about 30 minutes to make the curry for tonight's dinner." he muttered thnking out loud. Oh yeah, Junko's coming over. he thought with a smile. He then turned back to him. "I think we're going to be having a back to school party, really, so if you wanna come, you can. T.K.'s friend Anaya's gonna be there." he remembered the text she had sent him a while back, telling him that she was coming too.

"That would be great, thank you." she said quietly, nodding. She then looked back at him, squinting some. She then made a curious sound in her throat. "Are you that new teacher in apartment 306? I live in 302. With Tamani, my uncle." she said, realising who he was.
Tamani wasn't really her uncle, but his best friend, or used to be before he knew he had knew Tin had harassed her.

Diana's eyes widened in surprise. "I-I... O-of course. Thank you so much!" Diana said, smiling widely. "That's very kind of you to invite me, Mr. Desher. Wh-what time should I be there? Is there a dress code?" A soft blush spread across her cheeks. It was the first time she'd ever been invited to anything like that. Of course sometimes there were small parties at the hospital during holidays but she was usually either too weak to participate or not around. Besides, most of the patients in her wing were usually children anyway. With a soft gasp her thoughts came back to the party now. "Oh! And thank you!" Diana was far too flustered to remember that she had already thanked him.

Tamani laughed quietly, shaking his head. "Goodness, no. No dress code, its as casual as a dinner around a TV." he said smiling. "Around 5-ish. I'm sure the curry should be done around then." he said. She seemed very excited, like when T.K. gets all excited about staying at Anaya's dorm for the weekend. Was this her first party? He wanted to laugh a bit more, but he held it in. "Is this your first party, Diana?" he asked.

"Vell, yes...I do live in 306. I had no idea you lived so close by, T.K." Hugo replied while casually putting his hands in his pants' pockets. "This vill be even more convenient than I thought!" he exclaimed and gave a friendly smile, trying to ease the tension T.K. obviously had.

T.K. smiled slightly, nodding. "Yup." she muttered, putting a hand on her bag and one in her hoodie pocket. She glanced down and then back at him. "Well, I kinda want to get home. I gotta make curry this afternoon for dinner." she smiled some. "Mr. Desher, the computer tech teacher and the reading teacher's there." she muttered, thinking out loud. "And then Anaya and Edge... And maybe a couple more servings for extras... Hey, dinner's curry. If you want, ya' can come over." she said, smiling somewhat.

T.K.'s invitation caught Hugo off-guard, not expecting such a show of generosity. "If you do not mind making a bit extra, I vould be delighted to join you for dinner. Do you need any help preparing it?" Hugo replied. He made his way towards the door, opening it for T.K. like the gentleman he was.

"Oh, and you must tell me about ze other people there, you know. I barely know anyone here, after all." He said as he blushed a little bit. He was slightly embarrassed that he barely knew anyone here in the area. "Shall we get going?"

T.K. laughed. "Cool. Yeah I can, but the help? Don't need it. Anaya's coming over later to help me do that." she followed him out the door, thanking him. "Mr. Desher, compu tech teacher at Alota Days. He's a nut. A bad nut, but cool. Meh, you'll see when you meet him. Junko, next door neighbor and reading teacher. She's shy, but nice, its like she's had about 9 red bulls. Anaya's my best friend. She was just in there actually, the girl with the rusty red hair. She's cool, and a bit shy too, but cool." she stopped, realising something. "Hey, I never caught your name. I'm T.K." she said.

Anaya smiled, looking down to take another sip of her drink. She sighed quietly and glanced out the window, as she usually would do. She thought about how quiet they both had gotten. What was he thinking about? She grew somewhat curious, but kept it to herself. She then turned her attention to him, still smiling some. "So..." she muttered, resting her chin on her hand. "Is there something you want to talk about? I... really can't think of anything... My brain is a bit fried..." she said with a spot of laughter.

Anaya blushed, looking down. She smiled some before looking back up at him. "Uh... Um... I don't know what to say..." she said quietly. Her cheeks grew warmer. "You're so sweet." She brushed a piece of hair from her face.

Anaya's eyes lit up. "Hm? Like what?" she asked, leaning forward. She was intrigued, the coffee waking her up some. She watched him run a hand through his hair. She loved it when he did that, she didn't know why. She was falling for this guy, and hard.

Anaya laughed quietly. "There's a dojo at the school complex..." she said shrugging. "It depends on what you wanna do." she said. She twirled a piece of hair on her finger.

A small boy with a large back pack and a messenger bag walked down the street ( The one he did not know the name of. ). He had a map in one of his bags somewhere, but he was too embarrassed to search for it out in public. Even if he did manage to find it, the boy had lost his glasses and wasn't wearing contacts.
He looked at his watch and focused at the numbers, then sighed in dismay. He'd already missed the school tour day... He groaned and threw down his bags as he reached the front of a coffee shop. A gust of wind blew through his blond hair and he plopped down on a bench, pulling his knees up to his chest.
