"So this is Midorijima island. Seems nice might stay here for a little while." I hop off the boat, make my way into town.

Make it into town, people going about their day. Watch three kids run out of a shop, look up to the sign Junk Shop Mediocrity.

"A junk shop, I'm always looking for something interesting." Walk across the road go in.

"I'll be with you in a moment," heard a male voice come from the back.

"No problem I'm just looking around," I call back out to him.

"This place is interesting, lots of old and new stuff." I hear the bell as someone walks in.

A tall dark blue hair guy. He gave me a smile, I happily return. "Aoba we have a customer." He called out.

"Yes I know, I'll be right there."

"I'm just looking, thank you." He nodded, the phone rang went to answer.

I continued looking, heard the bell again. Three more guys came in, one dark navy, another with strawberry blonde and the last one snow white.

"Aoba you have a customer!" Strawberry

"Hey Aoba, you have a customer you know!" Dark Navy

"Aoba," snow white.

The dark hair guy throws them a dirty look, he was still on the phone. They apologize, I giggled, continue looking.

"I'm coming!"

I hear the dark navy guy chuckling.

I wonder... I open and close the door, called out. "Aoba you have a customer waiting for you!"

With that cause, all four of them turn to look me. Next thing I hear is Aoba stomping from back to the store.

"I said I was coming!" He yells out, look around the store. His eyes landed on me, I shyly wave.

"Sorry, thought I might join in too."

"No it's my fault, I should have came out earlier."

"I was just looking. I'm in no rush."

"Aoba Mrs Anderson wants her chip today."

"I know I know. That's what I've been looking for, Ren." He talks to guy on the phone.

"What type of chip are you looking for?" I ask looking between the two.

"It's for an Allmate, it's motorised chip broke. We had one but I can't find it."

"I should have one," took my backpack off look for my chips contactor.

Place the contactor on the desk. Open and turn around, "any of them you're looking for?"

They all look at the collection of chips. "How do you have so many?" Ren asks.

"Some of theses are pretty old." Strawberry blonde comments.

"Well, I travel and visit repair, junk shops, some garage sales."

"But why though?" Snow asks

"The old parts are getting harder to find. So I collect them, and if anyone needs some I give it to them. Like now," I smile at them.

"We can't just take them," Ren looks up at me.

"I'm offering, take what you need. I insist."

Aoba looks deep in thought, "we'll take the one. When I find the other you can have it."

Guess he's won't take it unless I agree. "Okay, we'll do that."

He took the chip, went out the back again. "Did you guys need anything?"

They shook heads and said no. I pack my chips away.

"Okay, if you ever need a chip I'll be around. See you later, bye Aoba!" I called out to him, left the shop.

"Hey wait up," turn around see Aoba running towards me. Stop and wait for him to catch up.

"Hey, do you need another chip?"

"No one's enough thanks. Are you new around here?" He starts walking and I follow.

"Yeah, I got here an hour ago."

"Where about's are you from?"

"I'm from (F/CY)," not really just one of the places I've visited. Weird ask where I'm from, but hasn't asked for my name. Meh not like I'm going to give him my real name.

"So you off to deliver the chip now."

"Yep, and a few others as well."

"Do you normally do deliveries?"

"Every day, now Ren working it's rare that I actually stay in the shop."

"Well, at least you're not stuck inside all day. I much rather be out and about."

He chuckles, "I do like it but some customers are..." He trails off.

"Annoying, a pain?"

"Something like that," we both laugh.

We made small talk till we reach the customer's house. "I guess I better let you go. So you can finish the rest of your deliveries."

"It was nice meeting you?" His face drops, he realises he never asked for my name, haha.

"See you around Aoba." I waved him goodbye left.

- Aoba -

"Hey, I didn't get your name!" I called out to her. "Or her number..." Maybe Ren or the others got her name. I'll ask when I get back.

~~~~

"Hey Ren, I'm back." Sit on the stool next to him.

"Hello Aoba, how was your chat with the girl?"

I could feel my face heat up. "Uhhhh..."

"Clear was watching you pair. You didn't get her name."

"No, I forgot to ask. You don't know do you?"

"Nope, she never said." He went back to work.

As I went out the back to look for the chip, Ren calls out. "You could always ask Noiz to find out." Look back he was grinning.

"I only want to know, so I can give her back the chip." Again my face heated up.

"Sure sure," he went back to the computer.

Laying on my bed after dinner. I couldn't get that girl off my mind. She was so easy to talk to her.

"Why didn't she tell me her name? I wonder if Noiz could..."

"You know he could, if you ask." See Ren leaning on the doorway.

"Shut up!" Sit up throw a pillow at him.

"You said she was new to the island yeah?"

"Yeah...?"

"Why don't you show her around?"

"That's not a bad idea," how am I going to find her though.

"Who knows you might run into her on your deliveries. Or you could ask Noiz." He left the room.

"I might give him a call."
