After continuing the banter between the girl and I over the phone, she had finally revealed herself to be Chiharu Kana.

Chiharu was not someone that had a lot of information given to me. I knew that she was first in her class and that she had synced with her Star Sign at 95%. I figured I would learn a lot more after meeting her.

Now, here was the problem.

She called me to tell me that I should not meet her at school. We would be having a date instead.

While I didn't think of this as being that much of a big deal I found this all to be quite a bit bizzare. It made me wonder what exactly were the intentions were of all these women.

Wait, something just triggered in my head now...

Eh, I'll figure it out later.

Anyways, as I had been saying, I'm currently in a bit of a bind. I don't like being called because I found myself awkward over the phone. It was generally just a strange experience for me so I tend to try my best to keep the conversation short and end it abruptly.

Because of that mentality, I quickly ended the call after Chiharu told me that she would find me at the city's art gallery around 09:30.

I had been excited (It was my first date after all) so I after mentally preparing myself while doing my morning routine I stormed out of the house and bolted towards the art gallery.

And that's where the problem lies.

"I have no idea where that would be," I admitted to myself in a mumble.

I had stopped running and gathered my breath as my beating heart was starting to calm down. I can't remember the last time I made such an error in my life.

What a conundrum.

Maybe I could ask someone for help...

As I was contemplating the thought of doing it, I let my legs carry in any proposed direction. I walked down the pavement while watching the different people passing me to see if anyone looked approachable.

The cars passing down the street.

The people walking up and down the street.

The birds flying overhead.

The chatter amongst people who were enjoying the morning walk with one another.

The different aromas passing around in the air. Smoke from cigarettes. Smoke from air pollution. Nearby bakeries and diners with an assortment of foods created to entice the nostrils and excite the stomach.

While I was walking I was becoming painfully aware of everything around me. I usually know the routes I'm supposed to take so taking note of my surroundings was very rare for me.

That's because it's impossible for you to fit in these people. You don't belong here. These people that are trying so hard to fit in gave up on their lives. They're sheep waiting to be slaughtered. You, on the other hand, are too selfish for that to happen aren't you? Haven't you -
