Eak managed to fix himself someone's number last night. And that someone was Towntrap. Not some cute girl or anything....... His parents had already gone to sleep by the time he came back, and Federico had been so nice to leave him a note.

Look tomorrow at what I found in the attic ;0  Also you gotta buy some bread tomorrow morning, I'll be asleep. And your mother will be too.

-Yo dad

So Eak had to wake up by himself. Usually that wouldn't have been a success, since Eak wasn't a morning person and he didn't know how to set an alarm on his phone. But conveniently, Eak's alerting noise was on it's loudest when Town decided to text him.

Vegan bud🍎: Morning! :D  Could you send me the time and place I'm supposed to be at during the garage practice?

Me👌: Shure. Address is Ruff's Street 18. We're supposed to be there at 12:30. It's not too far from Car's gym :P

Vegan bud🍎: Thx! I'll see u there! 😊

Me👌: See ya🖐

Eak turned off his phone and got dressed. He got downstairs, and as expected, his parents weren't there yet. It was 10 AM, which meant his parents were gonna leave for work in less than two hours.

Ugh, now he's gotta buy bread.......

Eak looked onto the messy diner table for a while before finding his wallet. He slipped on his sneakers, making sure to tie his shoelaces this time. The grey-haired teen exited his house and went to the local bakery right across from a coffee shop he never went to.

"That'll be 5,60 please!" Eak handed the baker his money.

"Bye!" And in a flash, Eak was outside again.

Oof, thankfully there hadn't been any long line inside the bakery. Eak was about to head home again when a voice caught his attention.

"Are you sure you're not just hallucinating?" A loud voice spoke up.

That was Chica. Eak's eyes searched for his gang member. The blonde girl stood across the street in front of the coffee shop, arguing with an incredibly beautiful and hot red-haired girl.

"Oh please, Chica! Anyone can see at just one glance that that short is bought from the re-cycling store. My grandmother wouldn't even buy me such cheap crap." The dark-skinned girl rudely spat in Chica's face.

"Oh Darling, go buy a personality!" Chica yelled back at her.

"Hey, what's going on here?" Eak quickly crossed the street in an attempt to keep the two girls from tearing each other's throat out.

The girl looked up, and uninterested look on her face.

"Eak? What're you doing here?" Chica's face went a bit red with embarrassment.

"I'm just buyin' some bread." Eak casually replied.

"Ooooh Chica! I didn't know you had a boyfriend!" The girl suddenly got closer to Eak, looking intrigued.

"Wait, he isn't-" The girl didn't let Chica finish and stuck out her hand to Eak.

"I'm Toddy! Clearly a better version of your girlfriend. And who are you?" Eak heard Chica scoff.

Toddy.......that name rang a bell in Eak's head, but he couldn't remember where he's heard it before.

"Uh, my name's Eak.....good to meet ya?" Eak was really confused.

"When's the wedding? O-M-G, you guys are so cute together! Though I think you could do better than that blondie, Eak." Toddy pretended to whisper, but the whole street could easily hear her.
