♪Staring at the people who are passing
Staring at the people who are rushing
While I'm here simply standing
While I'm here simply staring
Everyone seems to be in a hurry
Nobody seems to notice me
Walking from here and their
Running everywhere♪
Reen during this brief confrontation between father and son did not yet go home. She wondered around the area trying to recollect her thoughts as she sang softly to herself while walking around.
♪Staring at the people who are passing
Staring at the people who are rushing
While I'm here simply standing
While I'm here simply staring
She stood still waiting for the light to change before crossing.
♪I stood here merely staring
I stood here merely wondering
All these people seems to be busy
I wonder where they are needed to be
I stare yet again at the people passing
I stare at the people rushing
While I'm here, only standing
Where I am here just staring♪
After the light change and after a few minutes of strolling she then returned to the path she walked in and noticed a familiar figure from a far.
"Isn't that…?"
He cursed loudly oblivious to the faint footsteps that were approaching him
"Why is that every time we meet, it seems one of us to be either crying or highly frustrated?" She joked as she walked near him and seeing that it was Uoron.
In reality when she found out that it was Uoron, she wanted to turn around and leave but seeing him being so angry and yet seeing his lonely silhouette despite the anger emitting from his body her feet unconsciously led her towards him.
Uoron look up and saw Reen a few steps away from him.
"Reen… why are you here?" He asked slightly bewildered
She stared awkwardly at him.
"He actually did not notice me?"
Reen thought with the way she walked loudly he would definitely notice her. Uoron was too absorbed with his own thought that's why he didn't notice it was Reen despite knowing someone was approaching him.
He thought it was one of those bimbo girls so he was prepared to ignore her but when he heard that melodious and familiar voice he could not help but look to discover it was in fact Reen.
Reen had intended her remark to be a joke.
"I guess jokes are inappropriate in such times." She said under her breath
She cough loudly to hide her embarrassment, she merely smiled at him then stared at the bustling people in front of them. He too followed her gaze and looked at them.
They were in a bus stop bench facing the gate of a school. Reen standing while Uoron sitting on the waiting bench. Children were running, playing and squealing in front of them.
"Hey, I still owe you that meal I offered last time." She turned away from this scene and looked at this beautiful man.
Uoron looked at her in curiosity at the random thought
"Is she trying to distract me?" he thought
"That you actually do…" He said smiling slightly at her in question
"Since you don't seem to be in a hurry and I'm free anyway, why don't I buy that mean now?" She asked while trying to test the waters [1] as she knew he still had that lunch date with Claire.
