Chapter 386 - Incline 68: Student Larishazza

"Where'd she go?" I heard Nin ask as they all stood in front of the busy music hall. I had snuck off before they got near the entrance. And, I made sure they had all the stuff needed to get in. I only had my ticket and mine alone.

But, I would not join them until I had gone and made sure I had properly sorted it all out. I was so close to figuring it out... I just needed space and a map. So, with some regret, I made sure to enact my stealthy getaway.

"She's been going to the toilet a lot since that whole throw-up incident, she'll find us." Einervaene correctly pointed out before I became too distant to hear them anymore. And, as I made my way through the moonlit streets of the city, I searched desperately for a map.

"Oh, hey! Larishazza, looking good, going somewhere?" someone I must've slept with before asked as he and his friends stopped me.

"Yes, now move." I snap as I effortlessly shove them aside and move on until I found a park. It was such an odd thing to find in such a mechanical city, but, it had what I needed. It had a map of the city and I could use it to figure it all out... It was a blessing, too, because it had absurd depth for a park map!

And soon, I found it, a feeling of relief washed over me. I had found my solution to the problem and now I just had to get to it. So, I started to run as fast as I could. Loud taps and my exhausted lungs filled the somewhat quiet streets until I came crashing at the doors of the place.

It was a very good thing that it wasn't too far from the music hall. But, it felt out of place, it did. It was a vandalised building in an otherwise pristine city. I wasn't sure what to make of it all, either, it seemed like someone was keeping a tally on the building's walls.

"Oh, hello. Do you have an appointment with Doctor Nasoalk?" the woman at the front desk asks me with disappointment in her eyes. Was she judging me...? She had no right to! She worked here for some god's sake!

"I-I don't, n-no... But it is very important that I speak to him now. I... I need his help... I..." I told her somewhat.

She sighs, "I'll call him down, let him decide as we don't seem to have anything." she explains as a sigh of relief shoots out of me.

"Thank you!" I exclaim before I slam my backside into a chair. It was all going to come to an end. My mistake would be dealt with and I no longer had to worry about Nin... I could say yes if that is what I decided and I could just be happy.

We both could...
