"escape plan?"

"yeah, because look at you.. this is the women's comfort room and you're coming out of here, they might think that you're a... you know, pervert" keira explained, and xiao listened. "but I am not"

"of course you're not, although we still need to cover you up with something..."

"my hoodie, here wear it" keira remove her hoodie and handed it to xiao who stared at the clothes infront of him intensely "I am not wearing this... this clothe–"

"oh, please. stop being dramatic and just wear it, I really wanna go home now" keira whined. "you have no respect to the adepti"

"you really said that"

"what?"

keira did not answer the confused yaksha who obediently wore the hoodie she lent him and casually left the restroom without fail.

"we need to go straight to the bus station. I'm not someone who can teleport like you are so I need to commute" she stated calmly although she keep taking a few glances towards the adepti beside her. "we can just teleport using my abilities"

"are you able to find my place without even knowing where it is?"

"...."

she chuckled and continued walking only to realize that the last bus had left and they have to wait until 9 pm before the next bus arrives. a tired sigh escape her lips as she then took a peak of her wallet.

"goddamn I feel like zhongli now"

"you know of him?"

"yeah, he's broke" she mindlessly answered and called for a taxi. she's tired of waiting and she's really tired, wanting to just roll on her bed and do nothing is really running to her head.

a minute later they were able to call a taxi and with xiao asking some question and being overly careful about the vehicle infront of him.

normal for someone who's never seen a car before. "it's called a car" she whispered. "is this thing... safe" xiao asked not in a loud voice but rather in a very low voice that only the two of them could hear.

keira on the other hand just nodded her head as the driver took them to their distanation.

.....

keira decided to kick the door and hurriedly turned on the lights as he welcomed xiao inside who was still unfamiliar with the surroundings. "welcome to my not so... err clean home" she looked away embarrassed of how messy her house was.

it has been three weeks since she wasn't able to clean because of her tight schedule. "I'm sorry for the mess, I've been busy this days and I'm rarely even home" she explained picking up some trash that was scattered on the ground.

"make yourself at home, xiao" she smiled. "I don't think it would be okay for you to keep wearing that outfit" she look at the yaksha up and down.

"I don't have a problem with your clothes, in fact I love your style. but in this world, we need to change clothes everyday" she explained. "so, are you fine with that?"

xiao hesitated as first but gave in "I don't see any harm about that"

"great! I'll go check some oversize clothes there"

"are you living with someone?" xiao asked curious. "I live alone for a year now. I'll go get you clothes" she walk towards a room and left xiao looking around the house.

how interesting...
