Square guy visits round city (closed to Kerai)

Aug 10, 2010 11:24

It's almost one o'clock and I am just at Kerai's door. I had to work this morning, not that I couldn't have changed it. I try not to do that simply because I can, and one is a good time. We will have enough time to walk about in Minas Tirith and go to dinner, regardless of whether or not Kerai would like to eat in the program or not. I've had a bit ( Read more... )

Kerai had actually fussed about what to wear, even though the holosuite was going to change it. She was saved by the fact that she had very little. In the end she picked the neatest and best fitting of her jeans and tops. She looked at herself in the mirror, laughed, and shook her head ( ... )

I smile at her formality, taking her hand and bowing over it.

"It is good to see you, Kerai. You are most welcome--and thank you for saying yes." She is the friend I know, solid and strong. It is a comfort and eases my nerves greatly. Really, why should I be so nervous? I know my city and Kerai would not laugh at me. "Are you ready?"

I am, and stand taller.

She was not overset by the touch of his hand on hers, because she was centered on him. She saw him, or felt him, it was hard to say, put off some of the burden of self-doubt and stand stronger and taller. Oh, there, that was much better. Kerai smiled to see him steadied, a real smile, nearly an attractive one.

"The fact that you are able to believe that I would do anything but say 'yes', and have not guessed that I have been counting down the hours until now is flattering."

"It was a rather odd invitation. That was my worry." I was fairly certain she would say yes. "Let us go."

I offer my arm for the hallway at least. I can take the elevator with Kerai simply because it is more polite to do so. When we are in the streets, I speak again.

"Have you been to the holosuite before?" I ask. "Do you know if there are any programs of places you know? I would like to see one, if such exists."

If it did not before, perhaps it will show up if she wants it to.
