A/N: So instead of having two separate chapters splitting up the following two entries, I decided to make any them into one chapter and entitle them as the date of the entries. I personally think this made more sense.
There will be a few times this will happen in this story, just to let you know.

I saw the campus and it's so spacious and serene. It's filled with greenery and trees grew all over the quad. Maybe it's because Beacon's on top of a hill overlooking the Emerald Forest, but the university is really calm and serene. And the wind felt nice when it blew.
I heard of this café where everyone usually hangs out, and I decided to visit. It's called the Rose Café. Apparently, it's family-owned and passed down in the Rose family. It's small, so I can only imagine it gets crowded fast during Midterms and Finals. When I got there, there were a mix of college students and families coming in and out. Even during school breaks, this café still gets busy. I wonder if they need help?
I managed to find a seat at the coffee bar, and I'm currently waiting for the barista to make my drink.
As a woman to another, the barista is very good-looking. She has short black hair with red highlights. Young. Silver-eyes? That's such a rare trait for anyone. They're mesmerizing, easy to get lost in.
She's interesting.
I got her name: Ruby Rose. Somehow, that name sounds familiar. I'll look it up later.
Ruby's going to inherit the café one day and told me she's starting at the university in a couple weeks. She's really talkative with her customers at the bar, but sometimes I can see she's forcing herself to talk to them. She could really be an introvert, making conversation to be polite and keep the tips coming. Not bad for sales, not great for her mentality. She's so young too.
-.-.-.-
Just as I was leaving the café, Ruby asked me to stay a bit longer. She practically begged me to stay, and I couldn't say no. I stayed for another cup of coffee she paid for.
When I was finally able to leave, we decided to walk home together. I found out that she has an older half-sister that works at the café as well, though her shift is much later than Ruby's. For that day, at least. I believe she referred to her as "Yang" earlier.
I wasn't able to talk much since she can talk up a storm. She didn't stop to breath the entire time 'till we arrived at the apartment buildings. Most of the students live here, so she must live in a different room or building. Ruby's pretty energetic and she has a captivating smile.
She's really interesting.

Today, this woman came to the café, and I can't really describe her yet. I knew she was new by the way she presented herself. She looked regal, proper, grand. She looked Atlesian. As it turns out, she transferred here from Atlas, one of the best business trade schools in the nation. She must be going towards a degree in business this upcoming semester.
I'm going to be inheriting the café and running it one day; that's something I don't mind doing. But when it's mine, I want to make it into an internet café. Make it more than when Mom inherited it. She liked the calming, traditional, coffee-smelling atmosphere when our ancestors built it. I want to make the café more modern with the traditions in its menu and its recipes. It's fair. Yang thought it was a great dream to have. Mom didn't really think so… I hope, one day, she'll come around.
As a fall-back and a dream job of mine, I want to be a coder. I'm sure I mentioned in here before, but I find the idea of being a game engineer, fun and exciting. I'm not the biggest fan of using pre-fabs, but creating the code and designing levels for indie games, that's where the fun is. The code is the most important part of the game. If the code has one number or letter off, even by a decimal, it doesn't work. Everything needs to be precise.
If I get the internet café I want to make the Rose Cafe into, Aww man! I can't even begin to tell you how excited I'd be to help people not only with their coffee and teas, but also with their technical problems :3 You have no idea how excited I am to start getting that degree and this café to myself!
Back to topic about this Atlesian woman I met; Her name is Weiss Schnee. I was speaking most of the time when we walked to her apartment.
I don't know what overcame me tonight, but I really badly wanted her to stay. I, even, bought her an extra cup of coffee (R.I.P. money for that new keyboard I wanted... T_T). It's weird though. I've never done anything like that before and honestly, it shocked me. I talk to a lot of regular customers on a daily basis and never once have I done what I did for Weiss tonight. I was really, REALLY talkative with her, but whenever she spoke, I got lost in the tone of her voice...her light, feminine, and sharp voice.
That's it. I'm going to learn to stop talking around her and listen next time we speak. I want to get to know her better. I'll show her the best spots around the town, the best food places, best grocery stores. I'll show her how to be a true Valean citizen if it's the last thing I do.
