Chapter 5 - Chapter 4: Mysterious stranger

When I woke up and assessed my body it seems I have no major injuries, just some bruised knuckles along with a sore body, "Looks like I gave them a good beating, hopefully I didn't go too far." I tried to ease my worries but knowing how I am I probably went too far. Sitting up I realise the bottles are missing, so I frantically look around the room and to my relief find them on the nightstand. "Hopefully Sasha and Jersey enjoy these, I went through a lot of trouble for them." Thankfully I know how to patch up minor injuries from all the scraps I got into as a kid, or else I'd probably have bleed a lot. "Time to go to their college to deliver these, I can't wait to see the looks on their faces." After putting the syrums in my pocket and getting ready I head to the convenience store for breakfast, I normally wouldn't do this but I need the bag so I don't have to keep checking my pockets. Making my way downtown I hear a group of guys harassing someone so I walk over and ask if there's any problem, to my surprise the person being harassed says no, and that she is going to be shown the city by these nice people. Then to my utter confusion the gang that was harassing her whispered something among themselves before one of them shouted "That guy? Let's get out of here then!" When they left I told the lady to have a nice day but she told me that I chased off those nice people and that I have to show her the city now. "I'm busy, maybe some other nice people will help you out." I then started to walk away but I felt a piercing gaze on the back of my head, I turned around to see the woman following me while staring daggers. "Fine, I'll show you the city after I deliver something." She gives me a content look and follows me all the way to the college.

Once we arrive at the entrance I show the guards my ID and go through the security check before hearing a shout "What's an ID? I'm following that guy, he promised to show me the city after he's done here!" I turn around and eye the strange woman who followed me then say "I won't be long and I'll come out of this gate, just wait for me." She quiets down and reluctantly stands by the gate to wait as I move further into the campus.

I ask the dorm manager to tell my sisters I'm here and they nod then leave. About 2 minutes later my sisters come out of the dorm smiling only to eye me angrily the next moment "Why are you all patched up? Did you get hurt at work again? We keep telling you to take on an easier job!" Jersey says and I refute telling her that the job I have pays the bills just fine. Then Sasha asks "So what brings you here? You don't just visit us randomly, we usually visit you." I chuckle and bring the syrums out of the bag then pass them each one. They both give me an astonished look and shout "Where did you get these? There's no way you could afford them." I ask them what kind of bum they think I am and they say "The kind that doesn't give us any shopping money." To which I have no refute, I give them enough for necessities and some for clothes, but not nearly enough to have fun on.

After a few quips and a bit of arguing they accept my gift with smiles and words of appreciation. I tell them to study hard and take my leave after a quick hug from them both, college always gave me the creeps. After that whole incident I go back to the gate as promised and meet up with miss weirdo to begin our trip through the city, well the tourist parts of it anyway.
