Awkward Times

   "My most awkward times? Ughhhhh, there's a lot! But if it only counts when I came to this new world, ummm, it will be only one case. I don't want to relive that moment at all, so better not tell anyone! I would want to not answer this, too, but then again..."

   "My name is Blue, and I just got yeeted into this world through a freaking multicolor, flashing boom boom tunnel! My friend is in Iovredale from Candoris; I just planned to go after them and then poof! I end up here in Loova. Ugh, I know this time or space travel is such a quirky and dangerous thing!"

   "Okay, so when I first get to Levitheas, this dark and silent city of the tideborns just sends me chills down my spine. But luckily, I found a store to swing by for some questions, and the rabbit man shopkeeper is super nice! At first I have no money or items to trade for his service or goods, but he still guides me nicely. I would say I'll die without him pointing out where to go and the dangers of the streets. He even introduced me to a restaurant for a job! And now we're close friends. I go to his store whenever I need something—an item or a chat! Wonderful, isn't it?"

   "Okay, this is where it turns bad. Not like we're having conflicts or anything! Just the intro for the damn motherfreaking awkward moment that killed me for it!"

   "That's when I go to the restaurant I work in late at night to have dinner with the boys. Yes, my boss is also a loosen-up guy who is fine with a little non-formal attitude when he's around his staff. He is also a close friend with the bunny man shopkeeper, so you can say we are already a friend circle. Finding an evening that all three of us have some free time for a dinner together is hard, so we rarely have occasions like this. I ran to the restaurant after 4 hours of bonus sleep at home, so I'm very energetic and happy! A little bit overboard, haha! When I arrived, I kicked at the door and yelled loudly, "I'm here!" expecting the two guys to wave back and welcome me with laughter. But guess what! There's only silence."

   "I don't know if the Levitheas Lovabuns have a hobby of dining this late or if there is a special festival in their culture that happens today, but the restaurant is crowded. It's noisy, and they all stopped chatting or doing their things when I appeared with that, um, hilarious intro. They look at me with confusing eyes; some look around to find who I was looking for. None. The two Lovabuns are late, and they aren't here yet. I froze at the threshold, sweating; words stuck in my throats. That lasts 3 seconds, and when people started chatting, I slammed the door and ran away!"

   "Alright, that's it! I'm not going to tell you more about this. How embarassing!" > <
