A Promised Appointment

Yoru
Yoru
*-Thoughtful-*: Hm originally I wanted to throw away that thing, but maybe I should really -
- Evil Voice -
- Evil Voice -
>> Just leave it be, you will never find any friends <<
- Yoru is lookig around in his room but can't find anything - no human, no object -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Shocked-*: What is that? Why is this voice coming again now?
Yoru
Yoru
*-Thinking scared-*: I thought it was because of the lack of sleep I had. Am I really starting to hear voices now? Am I going crazy?
- Even though he was startled, he managed to calm down a lot faster -
Yoru
Yoru
Maybe, it's just because I've been alone so much lately
Yoru
Yoru
*-Thinking-*: Maybe it would really be better if I just text this guy a message again.
Yoru
Yoru
*-Slightly confused-*: What was his name again? Sato? Seta? Sen?
- Takes out his cell phone, looks at the number on the paper piece and enters it on his phone-
Yoru
Yoru
*-Idea-*: Well, maybe I'll ust save him as 'S.'
Yoru
Yoru
I can't go wrong with that
- Watching at the contact on his phone -
Yoru
Yoru
Good, and what now? What am I supposed to text to him?
Yoru
Yoru
*-Thinking-*: I know basically nobody else, well except Megan..
- Continues looking down on his phone, his social distanceship is holding him back -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Thoughtful-*: I guess a simple 'Hi' will do the trick
- Just like that, he grabs his phone, choosing the context and starts the conversation with the 'Hi' -
This was a huge step for Yoru because for more than three years, he didn't text anybody besides Megan sometimes
Yoru
Yoru
So all I have to do now is just wai -
- Yoru gets interrupted by a reply -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Slightly surprised-*: Phew, I didn't think I would get a response THAT fast..
- So the conversations between these two begin

[S.]:
[S.]:
[Hey, did you change your mind after all? I'm glad you did! :)
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
Yeah, looks like it, i guess.
[S.]:
[S.]:
That's really good, I was worried you wouldn't accept the offer!
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
Yes, this turned out a bit different now.
[S.]:
[S.]:
So, what are you doing right now?
[S.]:
[S.]:
Well, not that I want to stalk you or anything like that!!!
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
No, it's fine, I get what you mean. I'm just at home and not really doing anything special.
[S.]:
[S.]:
Hmm.. Isn't doing nothing getting really boring after a while?
Yoru
Yoru
*-Mumbling-*: Are we playing Mr. Wise-Guy today, huh?
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]: Well, actually I'm used to it. So it's not a big deal.
[S.]:
[S.]:
Oh, I see...
[S.]:
[S.]:
Well, I have an idea!
[S.]:
[S.]:
How about meeting somewhere, so we both get to know each other and have a little chat or something!
Yoru
Yoru
*-Slight amazement-*: Get to know each other?
Yoru
Yoru
*-Stressed-*: Man, how am I supposed to respond to that?
- He continues looking at his phone for a while, thinking of what to answer. -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Thoughtful-*: Well, actually it's not a bad idea, but I just simply to know how to act while being with other people.
- He starts typing his answer -
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
Yea sure, I have nothing against your idea, I guess.
[S.]:
[S.]:
Cross out the "I guess"!
[S.]:
[S.]:
Good, than it's a done deal!
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
But wait, where do you want us to meet anyway?
[S.]:
[S.]:
Eh, that's a a pretty good question..
[S.]:
[S.]:
I know! You probably know the playground near the duck-pond here in the town right? I mean this place isn't that big.
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
Yes, I know it.
[S.]:
[S.]:
Good, then we're just meeting there around 3:00pm!
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
Uhm okay, but wait a mine. What are we supposed to do there?
[S.]:
[S.]:
I don't know...
[S.]:
[S.]:
We will surely think of something when we're there! I'm sure of that!
Yoru
Yoru
*-Mumbling-*: Oh man, now I've agreed to some meeting where we don't even know what we're supposed to do yet
- Continues typing -
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
Okay, if you say so.
[S.]:
[S.]:
Good, then we'll see each other at 3:00pm!
[S.]:
[S.]:
Well then, I'd say - see you later Yoru!
[Yoru]:
[Yoru]:
See you later.
- Yoru puts his phone asides after the chat and starts thinking about the meeting -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Thoughtful-*: So, I'm really going to see another person again..
- Lays down in his bed, looking at the ceiling like usual -
Yoru
Yoru
It's been a long time since I've met someone..
Yoru
Yoru
*-Slightly nervous-*: I wonder if I'm going to do things right.
Yoru
Yoru
*-Realizing-*: Wait a minute. How does this guy even know my name?
- Confused, he looks around -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Thinking hard-*: Is he maybe some kind of stalker or something else after all..
Yoru
Yoru
Nah, I don't think so.
Yoru
Yoru
Maybe he just saw it in my contact settings what my name is and that's how he knew it.
- He closes his eyes for a while, but ends up falling asleep -
- Evil Voice -
- Evil Voice -
>> Do you really think, you need to meet random people? Why meeting people when you can be much stronger on your own. <<
- Yoru immediately tears open his eyes and looks around -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Nervously-*: That was really creepy just now, but it was probably because I feel asleep and my brain thought about the voice for just a moment.
Yoru
Yoru
I really hope it's just because I'm lying here by myself doing nothing.
- Yoru grabs his phone to check the time -
Yoru
Yoru
*-Shock-*: WHAT, 2:46pm. already?
Yoru
Yoru
*-Regretting-*: Oh man, I really shouldn't have fallen asleep. Now I really need to hurry up!
- He starts to put on his jacked and shoes and then immediately makes his way to the meeting point -
- Upon arriving, Yoru can already see Sero waiting for him smiling at a small bench -
Sero
Sero
*-Humorful-*: Ah, so you really came!
Yoru
Yoru
*-Slightly confused-*: Yes, why shouldn't I come?
Sero
Sero
*-Thoughtfully-*: Hm I don't know..
Sero
Sero
There are many people who don't show up for meetings and just leave one sitting alone, waiting for them
