Chapter 2 : Kira's Adventure into the Unknown
Honk honk!
"Comon! Get out of the way so I can park damnit!" Kira said as he honked the car horn.
"Thank you..finally!" he said as he parked.
Kira stared at the gigantic mall.
"What the..how do I get through here?"
Kira just walked ahead into the mall. It was crazy! How do people get up this early to deal with this kind of chaos?!? There were people everywhere, pushing, shoving, who would've thought Orb was a shopper paradise?
At the end of the great, massive influx of people he was shoved into a jewelry store.
"Wow, that was convenient." Kira said as he shrugged and walked in.
"Hmmm…which one seems right for Lacus..ah no..no…definitely n—wait…..no.."
"Need some help sir?" A lady who worked there asked.
"Uh yeah, I'm tryin to find an engagement ring for my girlfriend Lac—"
"Hey Kira! What are you doing here? This is a jewelry store you know. Were you…getting something for me?" Lacus said.
"Uh.." Kira's eyes sank into his face upon seeing Lacus here of all places. He blushed again and was speechless.
"I..uh.."
Lacus looked at him and saw a hint of deceit in him that he was hiding something, but she dismissed the thought.
"Oh well, I was going to go get some new clothes for the orphans, their old clothes are getting dirty and raggedy. See ya!" Lacus said as she waved goodbye again.
Kira waited for Lacus to be out of sight.
"Uh, that was her."
"Oh what a sweet girl, I have the perfect one for her!" the worker said.
Kira followed the lady to a vault at the back of the store.
She opened the vault.
Kira had to block his eyes because of all the lights reflecting off the big diamond.
The worker held it up.
"This is a perfectly cut, heart-shaped canary diamond, with white gold and rubies studding around it, the band is made of pure white gold also."
"Whoa, that's perfect!" Kira excitedly said.
"Here's the price tag." The lady said as she showed the tag.
Kira's mouth dropped to the ground.
"900,000?!?!?" Kira yelled.
The lady nodded.
"Uh, I'm sure Lacus won't get mad if I take that much out of our account.
Ring me up." Kira said as he handed the credit card to the lady.
He winced as he saw the price come on the register.
The lady handed Kira the precious ring in a blue velvet box.
He put it in his pocket.
Glad that's over with…
