Tenshi was smiling to herself from under her parasol as she browsed the selection of candy and other sweet delectable tasty things that were on sale inside the store, man did she really like candy and sweets... it helped distract her from how the bullying she received for her skin condition, it wasn't exactly fair on her but she didn't blame them for not understanding the situation but she did wish they would stop doing it, she had tried to explain the situation to them but they just laughed at her more so she had given up trying to educate them and make them understand, they never ever would so she had just given up and instead focused her efforts on avoiding them.
And yes she did still keep her parasol up inside the store, it was to do with the fact that the section she was currently in was utterly bathed in sunlight due to the windows around the store and well, her parasol was the only thing between it and her skin so if she did put it down then it would be some rather nasty sunburns ahoy for her and that was not something that she wanted to suffer from today as it was her candy day and that was the day where she just went into the city and stocked up on sweets, she might be skipping lessons to do this but it was the only way she could ensure that none of the student from her school would be there, at least so she thought because if she could skip class like that then other students could just as easily skip classes.

Suishoku wandered around to check out the city while business hours were still good. Better to do this early in the school year than later, she figured, since the other times there will be chances to visit the city normally is during holidays and the summer. Both times usually had stores selling their wares at higher prices or because of festival reasons, are closed along with the school. There was still some allowance money to spend for pleasure saved over from last year and with the pressure of being plucked from normal school life into military potential combat zones has reduced the mental stress it weighted on her mind. Down the mildly crowded streets did her eyes glance about at the display windows, often decorated with realistic plastic food that looked almost too real, and advertisements about the school and other events.
"Don't need any more school supplies and I think I bought enough hair decorations last year to turn my head into an ikebana decorative piece during the festivals," she muttered to herself in thought to help process her options. As she passed by the window lit up brightly to highlight its products but her eyes didn't take much notice to what did caught their attention. Her feet halted at what she saw inside the store that was very unusual. A parasol of all things. "Aren't those bad luck to have indoors?" Wondering who in their right mind would do that, Suishoku entered the store as well.
Come to find out, the store was a sweets store as the looked around at the displays and signs of the different types it offered. Now that she set foot in the store selling items like this, there was no reason why the girl would walk out now. Lining up behind the umbrella girl, Suishoku tried not to stare too much as she waited for her turn to place an order.

Tenshi finished paying for her sweets and swiftly pulled herself out the queue with a polite smile decorating her lips as to not delay anybody else by hanging around pointlessly, she had paid for her sweets and so had no other reason for being at the till so swiftly started walking towards the exit of the store letting the girl behind her pay what she wanted to buy. She walked over to the door way planning to head back to Sengoku before it becomes too late for her to make up some sort of cover story for her lateness.
Tenshi paused by the door and stared outside. She fidgeted and fumbled with the folds of her kimono feeling very scared about actually going outside as it was very sunny so she decided to just hang around for a few minutes so she could summon up her courage. She was just hoping that a student from Sengoku wouldn't recognise her as she shouldn't even be at this store, it was an unlikely thing though as she wasn't wearing her uniform and her face was being hidden by her own parasol yet regardless of these efforts she could easily be spotted, girls with parasols indoor did tend to stick out quite a lot.

As swift as the girl was before her, Suishoku still had to duck and lean backwards a bit to avoid the parasol being toted around. Come to thing of it, the shop was small enough as it is, who in their right mind allows that? As she walked up to the register, the look on her face wondered why the store clerk said nothing about it their own apologetic expression for not saying anything. Sighing, she pointed at the display and paid up.
Purchasing a small bag of thin waffle cookies, hoping the girl had left the store as any patron would, her teeth clenched to the opposite. Mentally, she wanted to slap her own forehead at the strange girl's behavior. Worse yet, the kimono girl now blocked the only exit out of the store. Wonderful! Walking up to the girl, Suishoku leaned down to peer up under the edge of her portable cover to get a better look.
"You are going to move, right," she asked while noting how oddly pale she seemed than normal. Maybe she is one of those people that lack blood sugar or something. "or did you forget to buy something in the store?"

Tenshi let out a startled squeak like a small mouse and turned around rapidly, with an apologetic expression Tenshi bowed respectively and stepped out of the way of the other girl as she didn't want to block the exit as the store was rather small and a parasol was pretty inappropriate to carry around inside yet the owner allowed it for her case as she had a medical condition which justified, that and the owner had always been nice to her. "Umm..hai-haiu...so-sowwy... I'm just.. uh umm.. scared of the sun" Tenshi managed to force some words of apology out but it was difficult due to her shyness and also the fact that this other girl had looked under her parasol getting a little bit too close to her personal space for comfort but Tenshi wasn't going to bring it up, she was far too scared and unconfident to confront people like that.
She stepped out the store and began to walk back to the school hoping that her apology had been sufficient as right now she just wanted to go home and eat her candy, or maybe she should just return to lesson before people started getting suspicious and looking for her, actually that would be best as she still needed to keep both her grades and attendance up, her grades where good but if she did more trips like this then her attendance would plummet which would in turn affect her grades respectively and as her good grades where the reason why she was still getting funding from her family she couldn't afford to let that happen.

"Ah...ki ni shinaide; never mind. Just move please," Suishoku sighed, not at all expecting the shy and reserved type. Not at all like some miko or geisha in training that don't take very kindly to being seen the way she peeked at her face. Nearly having another crash into the umbrella of the girl's polite bow, Suishoku turned her head away and waited for the girl to leave. Looking back at the waffle wafers in her hand, she pondered about sharing them with her roommate. "Maybe I should get a different candy just in case as a peace offering...."
Heading back into the register to find more tea flavored style hard candies, a breezy task to accomplish, Suishoku left the store and headed back to the school just a few minutes after the mousy kimono girl departed. Much to her surprise, given her walking pace is on a brisk level of speed, up ahead was indeed the same girl. Could she be the same school? Having no other detours, the clover flower and leaf hair pinned girl continued walking. At first, it seemed like mere coincidence but slowly...surely, Suishoku found herself walking side by side with her by the time she caught up with her and the strange girl didn't alter her path int he slightest.
"I hate to ask but, you're part of that school, right? For the past few minutes, it looks like we're going to the same place."

Tenshi froze up in terror and turned around to face the girl she had encountered inside the store and this girl had managed to figure out Tenshi was from Sengoku academy which was very bad. Letting out a shocked squeak Tenshi stuttered a bit wondering if she should just run away or answer the other girl’s question, for a few moments she stood their silently staring at Suishoku still fighting with herself to try and come to a decision yet eventually she decided to respond as to not seem rude, she didn’t exactly have the self-confidence to deny Suishoku if she pushed the matter further hence her responding “Uh umm.. ye-yes… haiu…. I’m ummm a student of Sengoku yes” Tenshi lowered her parasol to hide her own face behind it out of shyness and the desire to not be recognised. The reasons why Tenshi was afraid of being recognised was due to reputation she had, she wasn’t exactly aware of what reputation she had but she was well aware of how people treated her hence why she disliked the reputation. Tenshi had to admit that she was surprised another one of the school’s students where here as she didn’t think any other student would chose to ditch lessons for a day but woe and behold the evidence was before her so no use denying it any longer.

"Glad to hear. Me too, now we can be doomed together if we get caught," Suishoku answered cheerfully while diving straight into the bad parts with no pleasure what so ever in the prospects of getting caught and pinched the bridge of her nose while umbrella girl hid herself. She didn't want to be right about this but was forced to accept it. This girl is also part of the school. Dropping her hand, she grabbed the edge of the umbrella to force it up a bit instead of squatting down to look up at her again. "If you wanted to hide your face, try wearing a veil."
Even while Suishoku spoke to the girl, she never really recognized her beyond that she's rather pale from staying indoors a lot or something and possibly didn't pay attention to her other classmates during her first year to begin with. Either way, none of that counts to be important compared to what is at hand. This candy trip is starting to last longer than one class period. "Could you walk a bit faster in that? We might make it to school before a disciplinary committee wants to try and be all smarty."

Akarui, also one of those that snuck out, went early to get sweets as well. Of course, as well as some other foods since the school’s offers are not much to her taste. Before she realized it, it was time to head back. Since, she’s done this in her first year, she thought of not doing it again. However, how can she not do it as well when there are other students who come and go as they please but don’t even get punished for it? So it’s only fair that she could do it as well. But then again, Akarui had taken the time of her first year to study the school. Which has become a huge favor on her behalf since now; she can sneak out and back when she wants. Along with her doing good time management, of course.
Although, as Akarui was rushing back to the school she had encounter into some trouble. Even though, the trouble itself was actually what that found her. Which was much unexpected since, she has never always looked for trouble. As trouble has never come to her [yet]. But today, it did at a surprising rate. Osaka was a cool place to be and all, however, Bugei Academy students weren’t careful, they could be reported. Especially, if they didn’t have a sort of some VIP pass. In which, is never given to any students, but to the upper elite students, who of course, pays for it, when they need it. Even worse, looking into it deeper, her first year, there was no such thing. Simply, Akarui was running for dear life because she didn’t want to be caught.
”I can’t believe. Oh my gawd. Who cares if I’m late, it’s not like anybody cares if I’m there or not,” she said as had circled back to where the first sweet shop she had gone into. Before she knew it, she was lost control and was about to bump into the two girls in front of her. ”H-hey! L-Look out! Not wanting to bump into the girls, she stopped herself. Which in ended in her landing face flat with her bag of treats, scattered out of her bag. ”O-ow…”

Tenshi felt a small smile grow over her face; now this may sound weird but the fact that her temporary partner in skipping class had said that the two of them could be doomed together kind of cheered her up a little for the soul reason that to Tenshi it sounded like she had some companionship for a little while and in her life that was kind of a rare commodity, she didn’t exactly know how to socialize that well after all so when somebody said something about companionship it made her feel rather happy. Tenshi blushed bright red as her parasols edge was lifted up to expose her face to Suishoku but not to the sun; letting out a little squeak she looked down at the ground suddenly not wanting anybody to see how she looked, she didn’t think that she was that attractive after all. Upon request Tenshi walked a bit faster wanting to keep pace with Suishoku as she wanted to hurry up and return to Sengoku before one of the committee members found them, would actually be good idea as this little excursion was starting to take longer and not be so little anymore. As she rushed to get back to the school Tenshi found herself crashing headfirst into another girl and ending up lying on the ground with her parasol conveniently landing in a spot that blocked the sun from shining on her skin fortunately, she didn’t want to return with painful sunburns which would really land her in hot water.

"Look out? What the," Suishoku turned her head to the noise and stummbling back as from out of nowhere there was a girl taking a face plant between them and the umbrella girl toppled to the side. Making a hissing sound at the painful sight, Suishoku went to the umbrella girl first to help her up first since kimonos were such a pain to move around in to begin with. "You okay," she asked after getting her up to her feet and putting the umbrella over her. "I'm starting to think you really need a veil than a bulky umbrella."
Afterwards, Suishoku left her to squat down and look at the one with the painful entry. Blinking once at the colorful candies spilled around them, Suishoku picked up one of the sugary bags then looked back at her. "Are you...," her voice trailed off a moment to wait for the girl to get up by herself and say any complains of pain before finishing "also a customer from the same store we left, speedy?"

”I-I’m sorry!” She said while getting up and rubbing her face to ease the pain. Picking up the sweets she dropped she replied, “Meaning you both went in there too, huh?” Luckily, not all of the foods and sweets dropped out. Her bag has become grocery storage whenever she left, sneaking out, to buy things she needed. Even though, requesting for it would be the easy, to her, the easiest way was to go out herself and pick what she wanted and needed. Opening the bag to have the girl who helped picked it up, put into it. While waiting for the girl to put it in she thank her, “Thanks.” Not really wanting to look up, she took a glance at the girls. Taking her time, she realized that the two of them, looked familiar.
From her analysis of looking into the school’s system, which was free of access, luckily, they did look familiar to ones she saw. However, she didn’t want to expose herself or ask them yet. Just in case that she could be wrong and then look bad. On the other hand, it didn’t hurt to ask as well. But being someone who doesn’t really talk much, she didn’t know what to say.
And of course, dressed in her usual attire, not in the school’s uniform must at least make it even more awkward. In which, she didn’t want to be caught, so she didn’t even want to bother with the uniform no less. Now then, with time wasting away, Akarui even wonders why she is even taking her time. It should just be a fast thank you and off she goes on her way. However, wanting to be courteous and showing her gratitude, she just took her time. Since, luckily, her presence wouldn’t be noticed much in the classroom.

Tenshi was down on the floor having a moment of daze and confusion, she had just been head-butted and knocked the ground after all but fortunately her parasol had landed on the ground in such a position that blocked out the sun’s rays from shining on her. Looking over at Suishoku with a gentle smile on her own face Tenshi nodded as she took the kind girls hand using it to pull herself up while that girl had also picked her parasol up and placed it over her which was appreciated immensely. Grasping her parasol’s handle tightly she looked over at Suishoku with the intention of replying to her on a few things. “Umm.. ye-yes I am alright thank you and um.. It’s a parasol not an umbrella and umm.. I don’t have it to hide my face… ha-haiu…” she then turned her attentions to the girl that had crashed into her. Tenshi felt very bad about causing the third girl to crash into her as it was her fault for standing there, she should of paid more attention and moved out of the way before they had ended up crashing into each other, yet she didn’t do that because she was distracted and thinking about other things. “Uhm.. it is okay, It was my umm fault” Tenshi said as she watched the other girl stand up, Tenshi had no idea who the girl that she had just crashed into was, she didn’t recognise her from school which would mean she was not a student right? Well, Tenshi would not know at all, she didn’t exactly spend much time with her fellow classmates after all nor did she actually look at their faces or pay much attention, most of the time she hid in a dark corner and just did her work then ran out of the classroom as soon as possible.

It’s a parasol not an umbrella was about all Suishoku caught that seemed off to her. The girl took one look at the kimono wearer and shrugged her shoulders wordlessly. Was there really a difference between a parasol and an umbrella? They're both the same shape and same purpose in her mind while she continued to pick up a few more bags of candy to hand back to the goth girl, she stood up and stretched her legs a bit. So first a kimono girl with the large parasol and now a goth dressed one. This is starting to be some break day.
"So why the rush as if you stole those treats?" Suishoku turned her head back to look in the direction of the academy. Her stare continued to hold for about three minutes till her eyes set themselves back on the goth styled one. "Just the school down that way. What's your excuse now that we're all running a bit late?"

"No, it's fine. My fault but at least your fine," said Akarui to the girl with the parasol. It was strange though, she's never really see anyone with a parasol. More or less, this girl must have her reasons though. In the end, Akarui wouldn't bother to ask anyway. After all, everyone has their own little [not-so-]secrets sometimes that they don't want to tell anyone. Then again, it's not like it matters to Akarui. Since she's not associated with any of the students apparently. Much less her own new roommate as well. Not that she didn't like her roommate but it's just that the new school year just started off. And so, Akarui, again, is adjusting herself.
Now, switching her focus to the other girl she could see that description fitted her well. "I payed them," replied Akarui. Who of course didn't really steal anything. As before, she ran into some trouble. "Just ran into trouble," Akarui added. Now she feels as though, she's opening her lips more and more to the conversation. Even though, it'd be better to actually just give simple answers. But on the other hand, it was hard to just single-handed answers when the question requires more information. Suddenly, to her surprise, as the girl said that, she shrugged. "So they were Bugei Academy students. Well go figure," thought Akarui.
"Food," Akarui replied simply. As about to ditch the two of the girls here, out of courtesy, she just couldn't do it either. "Secret short cut. So follow me?" stated Akarui as she knew ways to get back inside with out having to go through the front door and getting caught into consequences. Then again, her first year was all about getting used to the school and learning about it's boundaries. Which of course, was worth it and has come in handy.
