Quill 4 act 3: visiting

Small sparks flew as the brakes were added. Passengers walked out as the train doors opened. THIS IS THE LAST STOP TO KYOTO UNIVERSITY TILL 5 PM the loud speakers announced. Cyrara walked towards the timetables and someone waved at him.

"Hi! Christian!" Roxane called. "Hello," Cyrara called back, "this is the last train before 5 so if you want to hang out in Tokyo or here…."

"There's not much to do here so let's get this train." Roxane giggled and walked over to Cyrara. They both went on the train and the doors shut.

The ride back to Tokyo seemed to be the longest train ride Cyrara had ever been on. Counting the 9 hour trip from Keron to Zerith. Finally, he started to talk to roxane and the ride went fast after that.

"-Gunpla addiction? I think I've met one of those people." Cyrara replied. Roxane and Cyrara walked out of the train doors.

"It's kinda silly when it's older people. Gunpla's a kids show!" Roxane said.

"Yeah. But I guess some adults still act immature." Cyrara and Roxane were surprised when the stopped talking. They had ended up infront of Ragugu's bakery! "After you madam." Cyrara opened the door for roxane. Roxane did a curtsy. "Thank you good sir" she laughed and went inside.

"Hello you two" Ragugu greeted them, "are you eating here today?"

"Yeah." Cyrara said.

Cyrara and Roxane sat down at their usual spot. Ragugu finished serving another couple and came over.

"Anything you guys want to eat?" He asked.

"Er, I'll have some tea and miso soup." Roxane ordered.

"Nothing for me." Cyrara said. He wasn't feeling hungry for some odd reason.

"Ok. I'll be right back." Ragugu said. He left the table toward the kitchen.

"So, how's collage?" Cyrara asked.

"Very busy. That's why I couldn't reply to you sooner than I'd like to," Roxane said, "How are you doing?"

"Oh, fine. Nothing much going on." Cyrara said.

They talked a while and eventually, 5PM rolled around.

Roxane glanced at the clock, "Is this the time when the train comes?" Cyrara looked also. "I believe it is! I'll walk you to the station." They paid the bill and left. "See ya later Cyra- I mean Christian!" Ragugu called after him.

The clock read 5:20 and not many people were around the station. Roxane and Cyrara arrived early and stood in a slightly awkward silence.

"Er, I think-" Cyrara started and stopped.

"What is it?" Roxane asked.

"I think I'm in …. With you." Cyrara said.

Roxane stared at him curiously, "I don't get what you're saying…"

"I think I'm in….ice!" why can't I say it? Cyrara wondered.

"Ice?"

"yeah, Ice! Uh, it's kinda a chilly night."

"That's what you think?" Roxane said.

"Yeah- No!" Cyrara interrupted himself.

"Then what were you going to tell me?"

"I think er, Ice! No! I think I'm in London! No! I think I'm in lo researching! No! Er, I think I'm in-"

The train arrived.

"Um, Sorry, Christian, I think I'll have to go now. This is the last train to Kyoto." Roxane said, "I'll try and write often! And I'll look for the next time there's a break in school." She went onto the train and was lost in the crowd of passengers that seemed to have suddenly appeared.

The train pulled out of the station and Roxane waved back to Cyrara but Cyrara didn't see. He was running back home. He had to figure something out.
