Chapter 94 - Parties. Part 2

A/N: It's girls turn. Another long chapter

***

After seeing Armin off to work, Y/N walked slowly around the square, waiting for Hitch. She sat down on a bench next to the fountain, watching the water flow. It was cold outside, she buried her nose in her puffy scarf sticking out of her warm black coat. Her thoughts brought her back to Armin. The last few days haven't been easy. They tried to spend time together, but it didn't work out well for them. Armin worked hard, came home late. But Y/N always tried to be with him in the evening. At her work, everything has stabilized, some kind of stable schedule has been established without overtime. It was only on Thursday that she could stay late at work, spending a lot of time in the Underground City - in addition to working at a construction site, she began to go to the hospital for a couple of hours to help the doctors who worked there. They often sent her requests for consultations, and it seemed to her that it would be easier if she visited them once a week on a schedule.

She was sad at the knowledge that she wouldn't see him for several months. She understood that this was just a business trip, and he would return to her, but... this didn't make it any more easy. She thought about what she would do during these months so that she wouldn't have time to be sad. She rejoiced at the thought that she had friends. She had Levi, with whom she spent a lot of time at work, and after Armin's departure, she could again go to tea with him every Sunday, since these visits were very irregular lately. Not that either of them complained, but... still, these meetings meant a lot to both of them. She also had Hitch to complain to or whine about her feelings. In the beginning, Y/N wasn't at all attracted to the idea that Hitch knew about her relationship with Armin, but now... She was glad that Hitch knew. She thought Hitch would behave differently, but she was a true friend. Although sometimes her curiosity still showed.

- Y/N, hello! How long have you been waiting?

Hitch landed on the bench next to her. She was wearing a gray jacket with a white scarf and hat.

- Hi, no, it's all right. How are you doing?

- Great, I slept well. How cool not to go to work when everyone else is going. You're thoughtful again.

- I think a lot in recent days, don't pay attention, okay? So, what shops are we going to?

- Okay, but if anything - you can just talk to me.

- Thank you...

- And about the shops... what do we need to buy anyway? What will we cook?

- I have some drinks, and Historia promised to bring something from the royal stock as well. We will need to buy snacks - we will go to the cafe where there were different cheeses, we will buy cheese there. About what to cook - we will need to buy meat, Sasha loves meat, and I think it would be cool to cook it. I also have few vegetables, we will buy them to make snacks and salads, I would also buy fish for snacks. And all sorts of sweets.

- We still need to buy all sorts of things like face masks, we will prepare for tomorrow.

- Yes, let's go to the cosmetic store then. I also wanted to buy candles.

They went to the city.

- What time should everyone arrive?

- We agreed to five in the evening. The concierge will tell them where to go. Did you take everything with you?

- Of course, the main thing is that I took a change of clothes, and you said that you have everything else.

- Yes, I have a lot of things.
