Coming back out, she turned the TV off, and looked at Toni. " Where are you going for the interview anyway?" she asked, realizing she knew he had an interview, but not where it was supposed to take place.

"Tatiana Bathhouse as a masseuse and La Maison De Perfection as a Landscaper" He said after a moment, remembering where he had to go today. He figured that he wouldn't be able to work as a masseuse because of how rough and calloused his hands were from growing up on a farm.
However, he was extremely hopeful for the landscaping job since he had experience with working with his hands. Even if the place was extremely upscale, he knew that he could at least try for the job. It wasn't like him to give up so easily.
"I have to go" He called out, placing one of his hands on the door. Half of him wanted Romano and Kim with him when he went for his interviews for mental support. The other half of him knew that neither of them would probably want to come. Though he wouldn't ask them either way.

Plucking up his bag from where it had been discarded beside the couch he moved over to stand beside the Spaniard, tossing the idea of joining him over and over again in his head. Planning out enough reasons that would excuse him for going, reasons that strayed as far as possible from simply wanting to accompany his friend.
"I'm coming," He said finally with a pout, still refusing to lock eyes with Antonio. "I need to buy dinner anyway." And also look for another job, but he wouldn't let Antonio or Kim know about that.
Romano was not so quick to admit poverty as Antonio was.

" And to make sure you don't run away from your interview in front of the door." she teased, patting Toni's back.

Seeing Toni head down the stairs, she shot Romano a quick glance, before she used them as well. When they were almost down at the bottom by the front door, she suddenly leaped forward and jumped up, clinging to his back. " Got ya!" she giggled.

"having fun, Querida?" He asked with a raised eyebrow and another gentle laugh. He turned back to wait for Romano, not wanting him to feel left out.

Though when Antonio smiled, and laughed with her, a very persistent part of him did yearn to join in. It all seemed like a scene from the perfect cliche'd drama, the one's that always had a happy ending. Romano scoffed.
Someone like him didn't need a life like that, he told himself as he walked passed them.
"Geez. You're going for a job, at least pretend to be mature for once in your life."

Whatever it was, she was gonna find out. No matter how long it would take. And even if Toni might deserve better, she knew how the guy felt for the PMS-ing Italian, and she wanted her friend to be happy.
But.... How to do this.... She needed a plan....

Great. As if i fucking need two of them
Romano seemed to have that effect on people. Presenting himself (unintentionally) as a riddle, and encouraging them (also unintentionally) to pry into his life. Those that didn't usually swore, flipped him off and went to complain to someone else. He liked those people, they knew how to mind their own fucking business.
Toni had tried, and failed. Lenna had tried, and failed. And now Kim had won a free ticket down the same route.
Leaving the apartment block he took a bite into the tomato he'd smuggled with him, turning and waiting for the other two. It tasted good, thank god. He was starving and would need more than (what he told himself) were pedophilic displays of affection the world didn't need. That he certainly didn't need. No, of course not.

And it really helped that he was really cute, despite his grumpy exterior.

Instead, he mentally scolded himself for letting the Italians words affect him so much. He shook his head lightly and forced himself appear normal. Thankfully, this slip had only been a couple of seconds and he hoped that no one noticed. He looked up to figure out where they were and found that they were outside Tatiana's Bathhouse.
"Ah were here" He said, hesitating momentarily. Half of him wasn't sure that he could do this. However, he forced himself to take a step in the door, holding open the door and hesitating again.
"This shouldn't take long" He half said to himself before heading inside.

Arriving at the bathhouse he looked up at the entrance, he'd never been there before, or even taken much notice of it until now. For a fleeting moment, Romano considered whether it was worth trying for a job as well, but stubbornness prevailed and he suppressed the idea. A bathhouse was the last place he wanted to work, and he'd never let Antonio see him trying anyway.
Following the other man he went inside, immediately scanning the foyer for somewhere to sit down.

But she hadn't told anyone that, it was a little secret for now. There were a couple of benches along the wall, and she quickly sat down on one, picking up some magazine and just reading through it, waiting for Toni to finish his interview.

Romano followed Kim's lead to the benches, taking a seat at the end opposite to her with one leg propped up on the wooden surface, his back supported by what arm the bench did have and the wall.
She may have been a hyperactive little brat, but she was still Antonio's roommate, and he thought it was about time he got to know her.
He watched her as she read, a sly grin creeping across his features. "Moving out of home already...that's pretty brave of you." Unfortunately...the Italian way of getting to know someone-especially a female- strayed a little far from general conversation..
