This time, I rushed my way to Stow-on-Side and Finally made it. Sonia was already there, buying fruits at a stand near the Pokémon Center. Just adding some detail here, Blegg was in its Pokéball. I don't want it to panic in a crowd or something. When Sonia saw us, she seemed desperate :

- How in the world did it take you so long to get here !?!

- Hem... well...

Hop laughed :

- She's an artist !

He was referring to the weird guy of earlier and I slightly pushed him, laughing too :

- Nooo .. yes, but no.. !

Sonia still wanted answers though... I said :

- One of my passions is photography. And so I take a lot of picture during our way and it makes the journey way much longer...!

She smiled :

- Ooouh then that's Okay ! I Love it. I've been a fan of photography in my younger days, too.. !

She's saying it like she was an old lady like her grandma.

- You know you're not so older than us.. ?

- Really ?

I couldn't finish my sentence before we see a flying silhouette over us; Raihan was there.

He landed next to us and ... It's as if my brain stopped for a minute. Hop was speaking with him, asking how he was doing; Sonia was complaining on him about why he had to follow her everywhere she went, even though it as an accident...! And me I... I was standing there, frozen. I didn't realize it until he went toward me. He waved a couple times and I waved back, still inexpressive. I looked hypnotized but... I wasn't. I don't know; I guess we can't be aware of being hypnotized while it happens.. Raihan was gladly laughing :

- You're okay ?

He pocked me and I got back to reality, even though I was stuttering :

- Oh meh Hem I'm well yes .

His eyes slightly looked over me, a bit confused. I don't quite know how to describe it, but he appeared like he tried to decipher me or something, as I was intriguing for him. Hop then showed up and poked Raihan, explaining :

- I think we need to find a Stawsbuck stop. Is there one in the Pokémon center ?

Raihan looked at Hop :

- What ?

- Claudia is a small creature that works on coffee. She didn't have one this morning and it shows... !

- Aaaaah I seee..

Raihan pat my head and said : "Well then let's go get some coffee."

Sonia grumbled : "You still didn't tell me why you're here. I want to know. "

- Claudia asked me some help and so I came. Why is that so important for you ?

She said nothing, and so we went the two of us to the Pokémon Center. He then asked :

- What do you put in your coffee ?

- I put heh... .. two cream and one sugar. but ..

- But ?

- Sotow-on-side is quite harsh. I'd prefer a ... A cold one.

- You mean an iced coffee ?

- Yeah.

He smiled at me and approached the employee and asked for a medium size Iced coffee. He paid it and I thanked him. He answered :

- Like this, you'll be more focused !
