I'm standing behind Jeffery as he's talking to another staff member but I wasn't paying attention I was just looking around getting used to the new store. It wasn't different than any other GameStop in America but it was a bit bigger than the one back a home.

"Adrianna, this is Scott Jund. He will be helping you through today, so if you have any questions ask him alright?" Jeff finally introduces the man, catching my attention and stepping to the side so I could see him.

He was around my height if not just a smidge taller. He had a slightly thin but built frame covered with a simple black t-shirt and dark blue jeans with blue converses. He had tan-ish pale skin, brown eyes and short brown spiked hair, kind of sported in a Mohawk but it only pointed forward since it had little amount of hair to work with.

 'He looks so familiar.' I think as I gaze at the man.

 He did look like one of those people that you swear you've met or seen before but at the same time you know it was the first time you ever physically met them. 

'Must have one of those faces.' Mentally shrugging I cut my attention back towards the men in front of me.

 He smiles at me holding his hand out as Jeff walks off after quickly mumbling about some important things to do with the mall manager.

"Nice to meet you Adrianna. Call me Jund, all my friends do."

 "Nice to meet ya Mr. Jund. Same with me but call me Adri or Murder."

 Shaking his hand he tilts his head in interest at my statement.

 "Murder?" he asks. I smile nervously.

 "All my friends are online so they call me by my gamer tag: Murder. If its too odd for ya Mr.Jund ya can call me Adri, either way I'll answer." I quickly explain earning a nod from the man.

"Nah its alright, I'll call you what you're comfortable with." He waves his hand in the air. I nod smiling more.

 He motions me to follow him to the back as he begins to walk away. I follow quietly looking at my feet.

 'I really hope we becomes friends since it's always been so hard for me to make them.' I sigh. 'I wonder what Koda's doin'? '

 "New games are releasing today." Mr. Jund says trying to fill in the silence as he sits at a small desk; on top of it were two boxes full of the newly released games that the store purchased.

 I hum in response as I stand a few feet away from him putting my hands in my Assassins Creed hoodie that I always wear.

I stand beside him still looking around, getting the feel of the room, but checking on him every few seconds to make sure he's not feeling awkward by my quiet presence. Seeing him rub his neck nervously as he tries not to look at me for long I could tell my silence was indeed a little awkward so I perk up and smile big at him, making him scoot back at my sudden movement.

  "Sorry Mr. Jund, I know my silence can make people feel awkward. I don't mean ta' be so rude, its just, I tend ta' keep to myself a lot." I tenderly say trying to make some sort of conversation with Mr. Jund.

He smirks at me chuckling.

"Your very polite." He says making me blush.

This was the second time someone said that and it made me feel like I was being too intrusive with my manners. I mentally face palm and moan in frustration. Why did I have to creep out people?

"I'm sorry Mr. Jund. It's a hard habit ta' break seeing my Mom raised me to be respectful ta' people when I first meet 'em." I look down ashamed of myself. He must've seen my discomfort so he playfully punches my arm trying to lighten the mood.
