Dropping her bags and falling backward with a plop, Mio sat on the market bench, lifting up her legs in an attempt to stop the pain coursing through her feet. Unfortunately, Mio had the luck of being recruited by Renge for assisting her in some last-minute shopping for the holiday that was fast approaching, an idea that sounded great at first.
With a sigh, she closed her amber gems for a moment, something that she's been wanting to do for hours without being handed a strange item to be gifted. Zoning out and letting her head lean to the side, Mio failed to notice the figure stopping in front of her until she spoke.
"Mio-chan?" She asked, making her jump in surprise. Opening her eyes, she was met with concerned brown ones gazing down at her. "Oh, hey Haruhi." Mio yawned as Haruhi took the empty spot next to her and the gift bags. "Wait, don't you have club duties or something?"
"I did, but I made sure to get them done early so I could go shopping for dinner." She replied, gazing down at her grocery list. She than turned to Mio. "You?"
"Renge. But I'm pretty sure she ditched me." She said, accompanied by a sigh of exasperation. Haruhi chuckled at this, standing up. "Well, if you want, you can come with me. I'll even take some of your bags for you."
The brunette offered, picking up a few of them. Mio grinned, happy that at least Haruhi was reliable. She got to her feet, taking her share and joining hands with her friend as they walked throughout the commoners market together.
