Finally, I'm off of that plan. It's been what, 28 hours since I got on it? Anyways, I need to get to a map or something so I don't get lost. I landed in in Haneda Airport, in Tokyo, so it shouldn't take too look to get to where I wanna go. But first, I need directions. So, I walked around aimlessly for about a minute or two until I caught a glance of a brightly colored board with lines on it. Bingo! Slowly dashing towards it, I pulled both of my suitcases my way. Upon closer inspection, everything became clear to me. Though I was looking for a line that indicated a way to a nearby train station, it was the Tokyo Station conveniently. The direction was memorized, so I hauled my things and made my way to it.
To my surprise, it only took 10 minutes to get there. And disappointingly, there were quite a number of people there. As expected of the capital of Japan. As I made my way to a train that literally just arrived, quite a few people looked my way. They didn't make it look unintentionally, but I didn't care. I stepped upto the open doors of the train and took a deep breath afterwards - that felt oddly satisfying. Then I remembered there were about 25 people on the train, so I sat down on an empty seat and simply waited until we leave, and until my stop comes up. The stares continued throughout the whole ride. As I pull out my earbuds and my phone, I say to myself internally, 'I may need to get used to this'. Yeah, I do.
One train ride filled with the stares of Japanese people later, and I'm off the train. All the people that stared me down like I had a bounty also got off with me, some of them even kept staring until they left. A deep breath, and I'm ready to continue onwards.'First I need to find a cheap hotel, then put my stuff down and then, only then I go look for a good coffee shop', I planned my day and possibly night right then and there. But there's something I need to do first. Walking out of the train station and into the streets of Tokyo, I take another deep breath. Once my moment was over, I came back to reality and realized a taxi was coming, so I held my arm up and yelled for it to stop. It did.
-Time Skip-
18 minutesThe taxi stopped in front of a hotel, the Shibyua Excel Hotel. It's cheap-ish, so I should be fine. I exited the car and took my baggage out of the trunk as it sorta sped away. I nodded in thankfulness, but he never saw me do it. 'Alrighty', I said without moving my mouth. Pulling my suitcases along, I entered the hotel and was immediately graced with the coolness of the air-conditioned hotel lobby. I never realized how hot it was outside until I pressed my hand on my head. Shrugging it off, I walked to the reservation desk. The receptionist immediately noticed me approaching and adjusted her posture just a bit, as well as clearing her throat. I stopped in front of the desk and propped by cases upwards. The receptionist started off the short conversation by asking," Kon'ichiwa, yoyaku no tame ni Kokomo ni imasu ka?" All I did was look at her, dumbfounded. I even tilted my head slightly to pay it all off. A smile came over the worker's face as she cleared her throat again."Hello, are you here for a reservation?", she repeated in English this time. My face lit up as I nodded my head. "Good! Now what suite would you like miss?", she asked again. All I responded with was "the cheapest possible please". She began to type away at her computer, the sound of the keys gave me some ASMR for the day, which was nice. "The Single Room suite is available. Includes everything you'd think would be in a hotel room, though the price for 7 nights, if you were to stay that long comes upto $640. Would you like it?" I nodded, since $600 wasn't exactly a lot of money that's being spent. To me anyways. She went at it with her computer again, though motioned for my credit card. Handing it to her, she scanned and gave it back to me. "Room 102, on the 12th floor. Have a nice day, Miss Sutōkā"
She ended that with a smile, it felt creepy to me. Feeling wery, I took my card and my key and made my way to my room.-Time Skip-
14 minutes laterThe first thing I did once I got to my room was shove my baggage into the closet. The room itself had the basic stuff: a single bed, a TV, bathroom and closet, and a..balcony? That wasn't mentioned, but whatever. Now that I'm situated for now, I need to do one thing - get coffee. I whipped my head back at the closet, and a sigh came out of my mouth. I walked towards it and then prepared to take a well deserved shower.
-Time Skip-
16 minutes laterOne shower later, and I'm wearing a white t-shirt with a maroon colored skirt, standing outside the hotel doors. I pulled out my phone and immediately went onto Google Maps. It took a few, but I found what I was looking for. It was called 'Cafe Lounge Estacion Cafe', sounds good to me. As a bonus, it was just a few blocks away. So I did what anyone would do, and dashed towards my destination.
I stopped at the entrance, panting quietly. Another deep breath, and I opened the doors and walked inside. A second time today, and I was greeted with the cold bliss. 'I need to be more aware', I nodded in agreement. The Cafe itself looked cool, yet professional. Blue flooring, red and black seats, 80% of the building being glass. It was good enough for me. I made my way towards the counter whilst taking a look at the menu. I knew how to speak and read what everyone else speaks and reads, so I should be fine. But I myself am not that confident in my Japanese, so I'll speak in English for now. "Good afternoon, sir. I would like two cups. One Cappuccino, and one black coffee." I had to get my words out soon. "Alright. It's on it's way miss" The cashier, whom was male, said in a cheery tone of voice. I honestly hate when people do that, but I do not care. Some seconds later, and my order has arrived, which lead the man to say "That will be 540 yen, or $4.20 please". I searched through my skirt pocket and brought out a 5 dollar bill, handing it to the man. "Keep the change sir", I said as I took my cups and turned sound, searching for a free table. It took a while to scan properly, but I found one. Good thing my cups came with a tray, because I did not want to hold these. Picking it up, I made my way to the table, but the person sitting across from my soon-to-be seat looked peculiar to me. It was a female, looked to be in her early 20's? Dark blue hair, with a light blue bow. Dark-ish jeans with a black t-shirt that had the word 'hololive' in blue on it. Huh, I've seen that word before, but I never did pay much attention to it.
As I stood at the table, I asked "Can I sit here with you by chance?" The lady lifted her up to look at me, before nodding her head. She seems to be doing some work, I can't exactly tell what but it looks interesting. I placed my tray onto the table and took a seat across from her. As I picked up a cup, I spoke again. "What type of work is that, if you don't mind me asking?". Not sure why I asked, but the question just plagued my mind the moment I saw it. "Logistics, otherwise known as resource management", she said. Her voice was low, but loud enough for me to hear. She sounded like a Karen, I don't know why though. She seems to be Japanese, but I guess it's just her English? I don't know. I took a sip of my coffee and got up a bit, to look at her work. I didn't get too close, but I saw some of what she's doing. "I suggest investing most of your funds into your main attraction, and giving the rest to some your coworkers so they can make the optimal purchases and preparations?" I never spoke so much to someone before, but I like Economics and stuff like that. She took a closer look at her work so far, and realized that what I just said was the right call. "But there isn't much money to go around", she told me. "If there are loyal shareholders with your company, then ask for an investment" She looked at me with a thankful expression, nodding her head in the process. She thanked me once my talking time was over - for now. "I apologize for the rudeness, my name is Yuujin A, but you can call me 'A-Chan'." I nodded, then I said "Nice to meet you, A-Chan. My name is Ochitsu Sutōkā." I held my arm out to her and she took it, we shook on it. "Uhm..before anything else, I'd like like ask something." She was all ears, then I asked her a question I wanted to ask the moment I saw her shirt. "What exactly is 'Hololive'?"
