Work is dull. The feeling you got when you started has diminished. Your coworkers don't help in either case. Always slacking off, not properly filling things away properly. At lunch you do happen to have a nice conversation with an I.T. Man by the name of Bertolt. He was able to make you laugh with how nervous and sweaty he was about every conversation. However, you are soon back to filling things away. You know how much of a wasted effort it is since you know they will just be back to the way they were before. Only to repeat the process again and again.
Home isn't any better. You and Reiner walk on eggshells around each other. You are both to stubborn and prideful. Dinner is awkward. You excuse yourself and walk to the park. A tall man is walking his little, well-groomed looking dog. It takes a dump in the pathway, but he leaves it there. Ignoring it and continuing on. Frustrated, you unfold a paper receipt you have in your pocket, scoop up the turd carefully and put it into the grass.
You make your way to the bench and notice the women there. That empty expression on her face again. You greet her with a smile, sitting down. She seems a little surprised, but nods and scoots away. You tell her about your day. How bad work is and your encounter with the I.T. Guy and his awkwardness. She seems more focused on your conversation. You realize how nice it is to talk to someone like this. Soon you start talking about Reiner. You can see anger flash through her face as you explain about the fight, and what he said to you. Tears do form in your eyes, but are able to hold them back. A warm hand is placed on your shoulder. Looking up the women has a sad smile of comfort to offer. You can't hold the tears back, but are able to smile none the less. After you part you feel melancholy. A weight off your chest as you head back to the apartment.
To be continued.
AN: So another two chapters woo! I am still having a hard time with writing this one. It's very...different? or garbage. Though I guess I am trying to connect myself to a fictional character? I don't know. I had a filing job once? All I can really connect myself to and know how boring it is. Anywho how'd I do? critique away though I know there isn't much to these chapters only being 400 words each...yuck. Sorry y'all. Also, I am holding my judgement on the English dub of the anime, but the ep. I caught they cut the opening so not cool. On another note I should Hopefully I should be done with the next chapter of ItRC tomorrow. No promises though!
Until next time!
