\THURSDAY/
*Class ends. Time for break.
[Cyan] Let's go get coffee.
[Ember] Venti?
[Cyan] Sure, let's go get Starbucks.
*They walk to Starbucks.
[Ember] Iced Caramel Macchiato, right? \reach out her hand, palm open\ Money!
[Cyan] \thinks\ Maybe I'll change my order today. I'll take the same order as you.
[Ember] \shock\ Dark Chocolate Mocha, Frappe, Venti? \smiles\ Okay!
*Ember falls in line.
[Ember] Dark Chocolate Mocha, Frappe, Venti. \smiles and raises two fingers in a V-sign\ For two!
[Barista] \?\
-orders taken-
*Cyan and Ember take their coffee and sit down.
*The topics that finally appeared after many conversations.
[Ember] \sips coffee\
[Cyan] \sips coffee\
*... \silence\
[Ember] (Should I break the ice?) \thinks\
[Ember] (Yeah, let's do it.)
[Ember] Cyan, how many kids do you want?
[Cyan] \coughs\ What?
[Ember] How many kids do you want?
[Cyan] \disbelief\ \stares at Ember\ (She's serious.)
[Cyan] Maybe, 2, or more.
[Ember] (2 huh? I can do that. I think.) \sips coffee\
[Cyan] What about you? How many kids do you want?
[Ember] Around 2. I'll name them Cian and Nova.
[Cyan] You're naming one after me?
[Ember] \grins\ Let's change a letter, maybe with an I. C-I-A-N.
[Ember] What about you? What'll be your kids' names?
[Cyan] \thinks\ (Cyan, Ember is red, so additive is white? Maybe Gwen?)
[Cyan] (And on the CMY, maybe ash?)
[Cyan] Gwen, Ash, maybe. \thinks\ (Dancing light? Light?) Aurora. And maybe...
[Ember] Stop!!! \raises hand\ 3, huh. No more, it's too stressful.
[Cyan] Stressful, huh? You can hire a baby sitter.
[Ember] What if I want to be a stay at home mom?
[Cyan] Then you will need a stay-outside man. \chuckles\
[Ember] Should I kick you out then?
[Cyan] Please don't.
[Ember] Don't worry, I'll just buy you a really aesthetic camping tent for the backyard. \giggles\
[Cyan] \sad\
[Ember] Don't worry, I'll camp with you. \smiles\
[Cyan] \confused\ Wait, why did we even go out then?
[Ember] \laughs\
[Ember] Hey. What do you want to do when you graduate?
[Cyan] Work from home, freelance.
[Ember] You don't want to work in an office? Climb the ladder? Take risks and travel the world?
[Cyan] Nah, that's just not for me.
[Ember] I see.
[Ember] Cyan, want to be a stay at home dad?
[Cyan] \coughs\ \dodges question\ How about you, what will you do after you graduate?
[Ember] Work. Maybe help my mom's business if I'm free. I can help my mom expand her business.
[Ember] Right now, just one building is taking all her energy.
[Cyan] I see.
[Ember] Cyan, where do you want to live?
[Cyan] At home.
[Ember] \eyerolls\ City or outside the city.
[Cyan] Inside the city. You?
[Ember] Same. City. By the way, what's your reason for choosing the city?
[Cyan] Convenience, I guess.
[Ember] There's no convenience in traffic. \giggles\
[Cyan] True, but we got on-demand delivery service, though.
[Ember] Takeout's nice.
[Cyan] You? City?
[Ember] Well I live here. I don't think I can survive in the countryside.
[Cyan] Survive? Isn't that too dramatic?
[Ember] Cyan, there are no cafes, or stable Wi-fi.
[Cyan] Ah, Yeah, I won't survive either. \laughs\
[Cyan] Wait, how will we retire then?
[Ember] You can retire in the city, hospitals are nearby, here.
[Cyan] Isn't that too dark? Let's add some milk, maybe. \thinks\ Near your kids?
[Ember] \ponders and smiles\ Yeah. That would be nice.
[Ember] Cyan, who is Gwen? Is she your ex?
[Cyan] Ah. No. I don't really know any Gwens personally. It's more of an art thing.
[Ember] I see. So, how many past girlfriends did you have?
[Cyan] Nothing like you for sure.
[Ember] Are you saying I have too many past boyfriends?
[Cyan] \confused\ Uhm, no. Not that. Nothing like you. My past is nothing like this.
[Ember] \happy\ Nothing like me, huh.
[Cyan] How about you. How many boyfriends did you have before?
[Ember] \thinks\ Hmm, same. Nothing like you.
[Cyan] (Stalemate huh.) \smiles\ I see.
[Cyan] So, when do you you think you'll get married?
[Ember] \coughs\ I don't know. After college for sure.
[Cyan] \stares at Ember\
[Ember] Maybe before or at 25?
[Cyan] (25? That's earlier than I expected.) I see.
[Ember] How about you, Cyan? When do you plan to propose?
[Cyan] \coughs\
[Cyan] \thinks\ When I get rich enough to buy a bracelet of gems I guess.
[Ember] Bracelet? Not a ring?
[Cyan] Yeah, a finger doesn't seem to be enough. I can't hold it.
[Ember] \stares at Cyan\
[Cyan] So, I'll just take the whole hand. \smiles\
[Ember] \giggles\ Can I request for a crown then?
[Cyan] Well, at least you won't easily lose that. \laughs\
[Ember] \giggles\ Yeah, I probably can't wear that out. \laughs\
[Ember] So what's your plan this Sunday?
[Cyan] Nothing, why?
[Ember] Want to go on a date?
[Cyan] Why not Saturday? It's a national holiday.
[Ember] Mom, needs me to talk to some client. I'll be busy on Saturday.
[Cyan] Sunday. Where do you plan to go?
[Ember] Let's visit the summit.
[Cyan] Alright, Sunday, Summit, noted.
[Cyan] Is there any specific reason you chose the summit? There are closer spots to hang out.
[Ember] I want to see the lights.
[Cyan] Lights?
[Ember] Yeah, they have a lightshow this Sunday.
[Cyan] Oh, I don't know that. But that's like, night time right?
[Ember] Yeah.
[Cyan] ... What time will we go there?
[Ember] Before breakfast. \grins\
[Cyan] We will spend an entire day there?
[Ember] Of course, Cyan. \grins\
[Cyan] I better get planning then.
[Ember] You my tour guide or something?
[Cyan] Maybe. First spot, Ember buys me coffee. \smiles\
[Ember] \giggles\ Second spot, Cyan buys me breakfast. \grins\
[Cyan] \stares at Ember\
[Ember] \stares at Cyan\
[Cyan & Ember] \laughs\
...*Settled down.
[Ember] So, what will you do this Saturday?
[Cyan] hmm, \remembers "THAT WAY"\ It's a secret.
[Ember] \shock\ Secrets? Cyan's keeping secrets from me?
[Cyan] Ah. Let me change that. It's a surprise.
[Ember] Surprise? For what?
[Cyan] \smiles\
[Ember] Surprise, huh. Is it for me?
[Cyan] Maybe.
[Ember] \suspicious\ Okay, fine. You win, for now.
[Ember] (Surprise... Maybe I should plan too.)
