April asked Nao if she had wanted to hang out. Nao looked at April happily
"Thank god! I didn't have anything to do today so I thought about sitting here the whole day." Nao replied with a big smile.
"Did you already do your homework?" April asked.
"Hmmm? Yea I usually finish it all pretty quick" Nao said innocently. I was astonished that Nao had finished so quick and her I was struggling to finish it before my work started while she had most likely already been in the shop for a while. I just brushed it off since Nao had been in the top class.
"Get back to work April" yelled Lea. Which startled me a little and took a second to calm down then whisper to Nao
"Let's talk about this after my shift is over" before continuing to clean the empty tables and help the occasional customer with their order and seats.
After the shift Nao had still been sitting in the same seat sipping coffee presumably a newly ordered one. " How much coffee did you have Nao?" I asked after I had changed from my work uniform to a casual outfit.
"Hmm? Around 5 cups I believe" Nao said nonchalantly.
"5 cups?! Do you sleep at night??" I said surprised.
" ah well caffeine doesn't affect me much, anyways where do you want to hangout?" Nao asked. I had been running low on money this month, because of the extra things I had to buy for my dorm while moving in.
" maybe something that doesn't require spending money" I said nervously.
"Oh don't worry about money I can just use this" Nao says as she pulls out a shiny, metallic, black colored card.
"W-wait is that a rumored black card?!!" I said surprised.
"Hmm oh yeah I guess?" Nao said looking at the card.
"H-how about we go to a park" I suggested trying to get away from the subject and not spend much money.
"Sure the park sounds good, do you know any parks around here?" Nao asked.
"No but I could look it up, wait a second" I opened my phone and started to look for a park nearby.
——————
"So is this the park you found?" Nao said disappointed as we stood in front of a kids park containing a small slide and swings. The park had looked somewhat abandoned aside from a few kids playing in a grass field right next to the park.
"I mean at least the park has swings right " I said trying to save myself. We sat down of the swings and sat there for a good moment before Nao had asked.
"So what are we supposed to do here?" I looked at Nao and gave up.
"Maybe we should just go to -" just as I was about to finish my sentence I saw a crepe truck sitting on the road. "How about we go buy some crepes?" I asked.
"Oh sure I haven't had crepes in a while" Nao said while looking at the crepe truck. " I wonder what flavor I should get"
"Oh I recommend the strawberry crepe, although that is my personal taste they also have chocolate crepes" I said as we walked to the truck.
"Woah there are a lot more flavors than I thought hmmm…" Nao pondered intensely at the chalk written menu on the blackboard. " I'll have the mint chocolate crepe then."
I looked at Nao crazily "Mint?!?! Why would you eat something that tastes like toothpaste?"
"Hey mint is pretty good I don't know what you mean" Nao said light-heartedly as she began ordering. "I'll have a mint chocolate cake and a…" Nao looked at me and whispered "do you want the strawberry crème or the strawberry banana?"
"Oh I want the Strawberry crème" I mouthed to her.
"Then she looked back at the crepe man and said "…and a strawberry crème please".
"Alright your total is $12.50 please wait a moment while I make your crepe" the crepe man said as he waited for us to hand the money so he could start making the crepés.
Nao began pulling out her wallet and taking out her black card, I noticed immediately and put my hand over her hand with the card. "Wait I'll pay" I said nervously as she was just about to pull out the most luxurious card ever just to pay for some crepes.
"Are you sure? I thought you said you didn't have any money?" Nao hit home with that statement but I still stood my ground
" urgh… it's ok it's better than you paying with that card" I said with low self esteem.
"What, what's wrong with this card?" Nao said innocently. Which struck me again, how could someone not know the value of a black card, I guess that's rich girls for you.
"If you really wanna pay just pay me back later or let's just say you owe me" I said trying to get myself back up.
After we got our crepes we sat down on a nearby bench which had been under the shade of a giant tree. It was late summer so the weather still had been warm.
"Phew I was starting to sweat from being out here for so long" I said as I laid back on the bench holding my crepe in one hand.
All of the sudden Nao turned to me after taking a bite from her crepe. "Hey do you want a bite?"
I looked at Nao she had a bit of the crepe on her mouth.
" No it's fine I don't want toothpaste ice cream" I l closed my eyes and took a bite from my crepe.
"Cmon we can trade bites!" Nao came closer and had puppy eyes in her face.
"No it's alright- ah" BAM.
