An Uncanny Chaos

2: Awkward Smiles and Staring

"What job is there that won't exploit me and a give a me decent pay to live..."

The blue haired female was sitting on her bed with a notepad and a pen, still in her pyjamas, and was writing down different types of occupation that she could take. She was mostly thinking of something with low effort but an 'ok' pay. The reason mainly being that she's lazy.

"Why can't I just be rich and not do anything...?" She let out a sigh. She plopped her back on the bed looked at the ceiling. She sat there for quite a while and nothing came into her head. "Another thing is that I have to actively go and actually apply there...Fuck it! I gotta get some air! Maybe then I'll think of something!"

And so she got up, got changed and went out. She didn't have a proper destination of where she wanted to go. She just went where her legs took her. And alas, she ended up standing by a bus stop.

Meh, why not? Maybe the bus will take me somewhere interesting...

And so she waited and eventually the bus came. The doors of the vehicle opened and she walked in. She noticed that pretty much all seats were taken apart from one that was next to...an interesting looking person.

The whole of them was grey with some hair sticking out of the top. They were dressed in casual attire and were looking at their phone. But the strangest thing to her was that their right eye had the letter 'y' and the left had 'o' and next to the left eye was, what she guessed, a birthmark in a shape of a 'u' which kinds looked like they had a sweat drop 24/7. To be honest, to her they looked like one of those devian art bases that people would trace over with their oc. The young woman didn't think much of it tho and sat next to them.

The person felt someone take a seat next to them and so they turned their head to see who it was. They saw a woman with long blue hair with a black beanie. She wore a purple turtle neck short sleeve and black overall shorts. She also had a black and white stripped stocking sock on her right leg and an arm warmer on her left arm with the same design.

The blue haired female felt someone watching her which made her turn her head and was met with the grey person looking at her. She didn't know what to say to them so she just awkwardly smiled. The person responded in the same gesture and then they both looked away from each other.

After a not too long ride, the bus came to a stop and this is where the young woman decided get off. Once she got off she noticed that one other person that got off was the stranger that she sat next to. They made eye contact and awkwardly smiled gain.

They went their separate ways. Natalia walked around the streets without much thought. She took this as chance to get familiar with the city that she's gonna be living in from now on.

As the first day that she came, the city looked pretty average. Nothing out of the ordinary. A few houses here, a few houses there, some other buildings, some restaurants and some other stuff you would see in a normal city.

As she walked a bit more, a sudden rumbling noise came from her stomach which made her place her hand on it.

Oh yeah, I haven't eaten much this morning. Damn, I'm kinda hungry...

She looked ahead of her and saw that there was a gas station not too far away from her.

Well that's convenient.

Once she reached her destination and went through the doors, she was met with soft music playing in the background and an empty store. The blue haired female walked through the aisles of the small store and picked some random snacks to eat. When she grabbed everything she wanted, she walked in to the cashier and there she was met with familiar person.
