Day 56: Mountain Antiques (Early Afternoon)
Sora was glad that he had gotten the chance to talk to Wally, since even if he drank coffee with a ton of sugar with it, that didn't stop him from being a nice guy! Not that the two were related, but it had been kind of weird. Sora had been pleasantly surprised that the man was so friendly and optimistic even though he'd also been stuck here for a while, since sometimes he did feel like the only one who could keep his spirits up.
Well, there was Kairi, but he hadn't seen her yet today. She was probably having a fun time looking through all of the shops, though, so he wasn't too worried about her. She'd always loved shopping for knick-knacks in the market back home.
This place was completely different from Destiny Islands, though. The snow was making that very obvious, and while Sora was still in a state of wonder because of it, he had to admit that the cold was starting to get to him, mainly in the way that it seemed to practically seep into his bones. He found himself shivering as he moved away from the Twin Pines restaurant and back toward the main street, and ended up jogging through the snow as a way to warm himself up. That's how he'd handled it before, right?
Though, speaking of knick-knacks... once he made it back onto Main Street, he found himself running past a shop that had caught his eye but that he'd never been in before. "Mountain Antiques" -- that meant it had old stuff, right? Maybe there would be something interesting there... or maybe he could even buy Kairi a gift! If she wasn't there already.
He stepped inside, wondering if getting a friend a gift was really the best way to spend his money. But he really couldn't think of anything better to do with it. He was relieved to find that the shop was well heated, though his eyes were almost immediately drawn to the large stuffed tiger near the counter. Sora wandered toward it, staring it down. "Whoa..." He couldn't help but think of his time in the Pride Lands, even if that had involved lions and not tigers. It was still cool!
