One Year Before High School

Chapter 2

"A barista?" asked Ella, now completely confused.

Ivy nodded, "Here, it says that baristas actually have a decent wage" she supplied, "And besides, you might meet someone cu-te~" she added, in that older sister teasing tone (except...you know, she was younger).

Ella blushed and hurriedly scanned the page in an effort to change the subject. "Oh," she said, "So how do I apply?"

Ivy shrugged, teasing tone gone now, "It's done online" she explained, "And you should be able to apply after using your ID. Can't say that's too safe" she added, frowning in disapproval.

"Ok-ay"

"..."

"You didn't happen to bring your laptop did you?" asked Ivy

"I thought you did?" replied Ella.

They looked at each other, then sighed unanimously.

"Well, on the bright side, there are public laptops in the library?" said Ivy. Ella nodded, reluctantly.

Ella strode through the huge, huge school for at least half an hour before finding the library. And of course, as with everything else here in this bizarre place, there were two of them.

"Uh..."

Ella stared at the two doors. One said Magics while the other one said Customary.

"It's the one to the right!" shouted a random student. Ella started, then hastily thanked him/her as she strode in.

Now, upon entering, Ella could tell it was out of place. The library was completely normal, from the worn wooden shelves with chipped paint to the out-of-date computers, hastily covered up by the odd piece of more modern technology, as if saying We can be techno-cool too!

It really didn't do much, but you can't blame them for trying.

She sat herself down on one of the computers and logged in (public computer here, it seems, didn't need login info), and began to search for the cafe.

Cup of Tea

What a name

Ella would've rolled her eyes if she wasn't so nervous.
