They heard the door hiss open behind them, and pulled away from each other.
"Buddy has landed us in Kilika Port." Nooj announced. "We made accomidations but we were only able to get one room. I hope you don't mind, Paine." She looked at Barali.
"It's fine but let me have some time to myself, okay?" They both knodded in aggreement.
Paine stepped off of the Celcious with Barali and Nooj close behind. The ocean crashed against the docks. Seaspray mingled with the air. Paine then turned to her friends.
"Do you remeber which inn we told you?" Nooj questioned. Paine gave her friend a playful punch.
"Only the same inn we stay at every time we come here. This is practically our home, I know my way around." Her two friends knodded and they parted.
Paine walked down the quiet docks. It was nicer at this time because here everyone would go to bed early. She came to a corner and an old house. a broken ladder laid against the house and went down past the deck. Paine tightly grabbed the ladder and carefully climbed down. She dropped on to sand instead of water. A sandbar. This was a secret place where she would come with Barali to just be alone. (a/n: or away from Gippal! ) She sat on the sand and thought of her feelings for Barali. Does he truely love me? Why? Why me?
Time caught up with her. She climbed back up and went to the inn.
It was quiet in the lobby with the exception of occasional snoring coming from the front desk. She walked over to it and cleared her throat. No answer. She dinged the tiny bell at her right. The snoring went on.She rolled her eyes and brought her hand down onto the desk as hard as she could. The manager woke stumbling from his chair to the ground. He gathered papers that he spilt along with a notebook. He looked up at the frustrated Paine. Pushing his glasses up on his nose he asked,
"how may I help you?"
"I need the room number for Nooj, Barali, and Paine." The little man flipped through the little notebook and resolved,
"Floor 19, room 7." Paine turned for the elevator.
She opened the door slowly so not to disturb anyone. Her eyes swept the tiny room and two small beds. She saw a door and resolved that that was the bathroom. 99 gil a night for this? Paine pulled off her sandy boots and from there climbed into Barali's bed.
