After me and Mal's conversation. I started to clean up my room. I was going to start streaming again soon. But I forgot something. The keyboard and mouse. I completely forgot to buy them, I definitely got too distracted with the bookstore and the book they let me borrow.
After those thoughts, I also remember. I was going to buy an actual copy.
But for now, I'm going to clean my room. It can wait a little. Right?

After 2 hours of cleaning, I went out. But it's at least 5pm already. I was hoping the bookstore was still open.
Before I went to the bookstore I went and bought the keyboard and mouse.
I started checking out the keyboards they had available. None was taking my interest. I also started looking at the mouses. I asked around the store, and they led me to the sets. Most of them had a keyboard, a mouse, and a headset. So, I gladly checked them out.
While I was checking out, one set caught my eye.

I was mostly looking for a green set, but there was none. It was ok, rainbow but i like it!
As I was leaving the store, I decided to go back and maybe buy some crisps to snack on while I'm streaming. so, I went back.
"uhm, excuse me. Can you let me pass." I said to the lady who was blocking the way in the crisps section of the store. She ignored me. "uhm miss?" I was going to ask again, but a hand held my wrist. pulling me somewhere. is this how I'm going to die? who the fuck is pulling me. the person was wearing a hood. they kept pulling me, until we reached the isle of the crisps? What?!
"thanks I guess?" They nodded and left me alone.
Who was that? Why did they help me, without saying a fucking word.? I asked myself.
Without Hesitation, I took some crisps and went to the cashier to pay.

I got all the stuff I need, now I need to go and buy the book copy. Thankfully, I didn't forget the book they let me borrow.
I started walking to the bookstore, it was closed. But, a person was in. I recognized the hair color, it was the redhead who handed me the book.
So, I knocked at the glass. "hey?" I said, as I peeked through the glass. She rushed towards the entrance, and opened the door.
"I didn't think you'd come blondie." she said.
"Well, I did." I followed her towards a table. Placed on the side of the store, i'm guessing it's the table where people would get the books for the author to sign them?
"I'll get the book copy, you can wait here." she said. I nodded, and sat down in one of the chairs, with the bags on the floor. I took out the book, they let me borrow so we could exchange it. But not to worry, I was going to pay for the book.
Not long after, someone walked towards me. It wasn't the redhead. It was a girl, with blonde hair, indigo tips. She was kinda familiar to me.
"Hello, we are currently closed.? Can I know how you got in?" she asked me, definitely shocked and curious.
"i'm the person who is buying the copy, and returning the book I borrowed. And i got in here, because of the redhead who let me in." i responded, explaining the reason why im here and how i got in. She nodded, showing that she understood.
"Well then. How's it? The book?" she asked. This girl really likes to ask questions huh. "very interesting!" I answered, she smiled widely.
"Sorry to make this awkward.." I said between the awkward silence. "tho, could i know your name?" She was looking at the book, but when I asked about her name, she looked at me rapidly.
"Alice. My Name is Alice." she answered, a little shuttery. "sorry, were you uncomfortable with people knowing your name?'' I asked, wondering why she shuttered a bit. "no, no it's completely fine. Just not used to people asking me my name." she assured and explained.
"have you finished the book by the way?" i shook my head, as a no. "halfway finished." she nodded. Silence starts again, she was reading the book i was returning. She seemed so focused in it.
"so, urm. Do you work here?" She was startled by my question. "oh, it's a little complicated. Yes i work here, but i don't Exactly work here."
"So you're like a visitor? Intern?"
She opened her mouth, she was about to say something, but the redhead returned. "oh hello Alice! I see you've met the blondie!" she said happily. "say, I never got your name," she added, "Odin, my name is Odin." I replied smiling.
"alrighty! Here's the book," she handed me the book, and I placed my payment in return. She smiled and went to the cash register, and returned to the table with change. "I'll Let you guys continue your conversation!" she said, then walked away.
Silence occured for a minute, but I stopped the silence by asking the question again. "so, are you a visitor? Or a intern like worker?" she shook her head no. ''uhm, im one of the book authors, I saw you before. But I'm guessing you forgot or thought that I was someone else." I completely forgot I saw her before. I'm such a dumbass.
"you wrote this?" I asked, pointing to the book she was reading. " Yes, I did. I hoped you didn't mind the notes I left for future errors." she said. I assured her it was fine, and that I didn't mind reading the book, with her notes.
Mal A... I'm guessing the A is 'Alice'..
suddenly, she groaned. "What's wrong?" I asked "It's nothing. Just another mistake on the book's grammar." she answered, sounding stressed. I offered, to help find the grammar mistakes in the book, she gladly accepted the offer. She wasn't even quarter through the book, but she did finish notes for the whole book. She might've just been checking again..
