"Alrighty. Last stop!" John said as he boarded the escalator along with Selene, heading over to the British heiress' last stop for the day - an electronics store. "Are you all right?" Selene took a moment to check on her friend, looking over her shoulder as she browsed through the store's selection of mobile devices on sale. In time, the British heiress felt she would need to either get a new smart phone or to get her current one tuned up. Selene picked up a products catalog that displayed their latest best-selling devices, comparing the prices and functions - she could get one now, or in due time. |

"Yeah, I'm good. If I got a job here, I think that would be a good way of sticking it to my old boss..." John let out a bit of a diabolical, evil laugh at the thought of possibly applying for a job at a competing business. John's thoughts began to wander to much more evil things involving corporate espionage, becoming a turned operative for another store and sharing all of the competitor's secrets with his current employment. John's eventual smirk only lasted for a split second due to two factors, a) that kind of stuff could get him in trouble, and b) what did he know from his old job that was so important? No matter, John was feeling a little better as he looked around at the smart phones. |

"Yeah, I'm good. If I got a job here, I think that would be a good way of sticking it to my old boss..." As John replied, Selene caught sight of a smirk forming on the electromancer's face - which seemed almost evil. "I take it he hasn't treated you very well?" The British heiress asked as she took note of his expression. She too wondered what the letter was all about, but then decided not to probe into that subject. |

"Typical boss behavior. I get paid one paycheck for doing the work of three or four people at a time, not really all that fair. But that's the way it crumbles sometimes." John commented, his eyes going from phone to phone until John felt the letter he slipped into one of his back pockets suddenly fall out and hit the floor. Despite the fact that the envelope was closed, it wasn't sealed on the back. It made John feel a little uneasy as he bent down to pick it up. Turning over to Selene, John held out the envelope to her. "Have you ever gotten the feeling that something waiting for you was anything but good?" John asked, holding up the envelope for her to see. John couldn't help but get a feeling of something bad from the envelope. Either that or he was being paranoid, and he was hoping it was the later. |

"Typical boss behavior. I get paid one paycheck for doing the work of three or four people at a time, not really all that fair. But that's the way it crumbles sometimes," Selene knew what John meant by that comment. As John browsed through the phones on sale, the letter he had slipped into his back pocket fell out and landed on the floor, which was soon discovered that the envelope holding the letter wasn't sealed. The atmosphere took on a somewhat uneasy ambiance as John bent down to pick it up. As John turned around he held out the envelope to Selene. "Have you ever gotten the feeling that something waiting for you was anything but good?" he asked. "Well... I've had my fair share of such situations," Selene replied. "It's one of those moments when you wished you could just vanish into thin air or that the ground would just open up and swallow you whole..." Seeing that John was discussing the letter more openly now the British heiress' curiosity was sparked anew. "So... what is this letter about?" Selene asked. |

"I don't know, to be honest. I have a pretty good idea of who it's from though." And with that, John pushed the envelope open and slid out the piece of paper hidden inside it. It wasn't an official document from his workplace since it wasn't typed out or had any of the logos representing the company or the union that went along with it. It was a plain letter written out in English that ended with the name Patricia Ramsey at the bottom. The only thing that mortified John about the letter, however, were the contents of the actual letter. "It's from my mom. Apparently...she's pregnant again." |

"I don't know, to be honest. I have a pretty good idea of who it's from though," John replied as he opened up the envelope to examine its contents, a sheet of paper within. Selene didn't know what was on the letter, but judging from the electromancer's expression it couldn't be a good thing. "It's from my mom. Apparently...she's pregnant again," John replied while Selene looked on blankly. "So... what would that bode for you?" the British heiress asked, having now learned that John's family had gained one more member. |

"Me? Nothing...I'm just surprised is all. I just can't imagine who the father would be." The news had sent chills up John's spine when he'd first read the entire thing. Even though to the normal person pregnancy at his mother's age was a good thing, John found it somewhat disturbing that his mother could move on the way she did. Had John missed something while he was away, or had his suspicion been with him since before he came to Japan? "Well, good for her." John spoke, folding the paper and sliding it back inside the envelope it came in. |

"Me? Nothing...I'm just surprised is all. I just can't imagine who the father would be." John replied. "Well, good for her," he continued as he folded up the piece of paper and slid it back into the envelope. "Shouldn't you call or write home to check on your mother?" Selene asked as she went through the store's selection of mobile device accessories such as carrying cases, stylus pens, earphones and the like. She had known John well enough that problems within his family was what caused him to move to Japan, but at any rate, surely he still cared for his family members back home? |

"Yeah, I'll give her a call." John spoke simply, nodding as he looked at what Selene was observing. The prices were surprisingly good, not to mention these were pretty a-list items. How could John have missed this from where he was not so long ago? That would have to wait for now, however, since he was having a nice time with Selene. "Are you looking for anything in particular?" |

"Yeah, I'll give her a call," came John's reply. "Are you looking for anything in particular?" "I was considering possible replacements for my current smart phone," Selene replied as she looked at the smart phones on display. "Although I don't think I have to get one this soon, so..." Selene glanced outside. "I guess it's time we moved on then." Indeed, with the news that classes were around the corner this was probably the last bit of leisure time they could spend together; but at least it was all worthwhile. |

"I guess so." John's comment was simple and to the point, and while he wanted to add something else on after that, John couldn't really think of any right way to phrase it. There was no knot in his stomach, no nervous feeling, just...a lack of a good sentence formation. This didn't stop John from trying to move the conversation along though, since this was getting closer to the end. "I'm glad we got to spend today together though." |

"I guess so," John's response was short and sweet - though it was more out of a lack of words rather than nervousness. "I'm glad we got to spend today together though." "I would say the same myself too," Selene replied as she smiled warmly, heading for a descending escalator. "Have you heard about classes resuming, though?" The British heiress asked - she had arrived in Hyakuji in an interval period between semesters, and as such hadn't experienced classes yet. "I'm kind of looking forward to it..." Selene said, remembering what Ayane had told her about the classes. "Although I wonder if we have the time to hang out once classes are underway?" There was some disappointment in Selene's voice as she worded that part. |

"Yeah, we'll have time to hang out. It can't possibly be all that difficult." John couldn't help but chuckle as he noticed the disappointment in her voice. This was high school, after all, it couldn't possibly be as difficult as college or some sort of higher-level education. John couldn't help but feel a little optimistic about school, having also been transferred between the semesters. "If not, then...hell, we can think of something." |

"Yeah, we'll have time to hang out. It can't possibly be all that difficult," John replied with a chuckle, and hearing that brought a smile to Selene's face - It's only high school... She reassured herself as they made their way to the bus stop outside the mall's main entrance. "If not, then...hell, we can think of something." The British heiress nodded in approval. Surely there's always time to hang out; such as during the after hours and weekends, and it isn't like they're going to end up buried to the necks with homework and assignments once school term starts. "So... heading back to campus?" Selene asked as she sat down on a nearby empty bench waiting for a bus. |
