The Errors Of A Girl Made Through Cooking: Part Two: A Bit O
Background!
Now, I should tell you, it wasn't quite as big an almighty
shock had it been if I hadn't been working in the same offices as Maya. Truth
be told, we had been having lunch together in the cafeteria, and the only thing
preventing us from dating, had been a conflict of schedule. After eating, and
waiting about two hours just chatting with Maya an idea came to my head.
"Why don't you just suggest to Pearl that someone else
carry on the family line----Like her?"
I asked.
"I will, in a few years that is----She's incredibly
strong with her power, if she takes the Master place, it's because she
rightfully attained it, and by the time she reaches the age to understand it,
she'll know better than to do evil things like my aunt did," Maya said
matter of factly.
I should also point out, that right now it's 2019 after the
last trial of the third game happened. Nobody has got anybody, well except Maya
that is.
"We should head back----I don't think it's a good idea
to just let the fighting continue, since that's all I can see that would've
happened since us leaving," I said.
We headed back to my apartment. Everyone was chatting, and Franziska had been shooed off and had gone home. Pearl was
looking at Phoenix with a crushed look on her face, and he just stood there
shaking his head, wondering why she hadn't figured it out earlier.
"But-You were always working together," Pearl
said.
"Truly though, even Gumshoe knew better than to think
of us as boyfriend and girlfriend, and he doesn't even get most things," Phoenix said.
"I heard that!" Gumshoe called out slightly
irritated.
"Anyways, if you want to stay, you may," Phoenix
said still looking at Pearl.
"I want to go home," Pearl said quietly.
"The party was ruined when Franziska
came, and it got worse after that, but that's no reason to not try and make it
nice now," Miles the normally dark personality said trying to put on his
best smile.
"The only proof you need, is that there's a reason Maya
wasn't spending her lunch break with you anymore," Phoenix said.
"Yeah, too much pressure on something that didn't exist,"
I said from where I stood.
"Anyways, in a couple of hours, the afternoon will be
over, and I'm dispersing this tragic party, but Maya can come with me to have
dinner, for the trouble that was caused," I said loudly so everyone could
hear.
"Well, I support
you two," Phoenix said.
"Thanks Nick," Maya said sounding a little bit
cheered up.
"I think nobody cares about who you choose to date, and
Pearls here is just going to have to deal with it," and shockingly it came
from Gumshoe.
"How'd you know anything about what was starting?"
I asked.
"I had to make sure everyone got out after a trial one
day, because you were chatting with Maya, luckily the trial had already
ended," Gumshoe said scratching his head.
"Poor Gumshoe, he always gets the menial jobs," Maya
said.
"Yeah, like cleaning Miles's
desk," Phoenix said grinning evilly.
"Phoenix!" Miles exclaimed.
"It's allright Miles, you
don't want to know how messy my desk
gets if I don't remind myself to clean it," I said.
After that, the party went on like normal. Gumshoe, who I
found out was the one who had taken Pearl wasn't about to give in to temper
tantrums, since he took a class on babysitting in case nobody else could help
out. It took awhile, but eventually
he passed. And also, it's not like Pearl's mom was going to get let out of
jail, and the people at the shrine were too busy to be of help. When the time
came for the party to end, Pearl had somehow connected that her cousin was
indeed dating me, a court reporter, whom she had only heard her talk about.
"It's time to close up, I'm locking up the house so
Maya and I can go out," I said.
Goodbyes were bid, and then I realized Maya and I didn't
even eat that much thanks to Pearl's disruption of the party, which had been
set off by Franziska.
"Don't worry, I'll pay, now what do you want to
eat?" I asked.
"How about burgers again? I don't think there's any
left from the party, and this is a date not just "friends"
right?" Maya said.
"You've made your intentions quite clear, and I feel
the same, so yes," I said.
"Yaay! I get to have burgers
and a pretty girlfriend! I rule!" Maya exclaimed.
It seems she's really excited to be dating me. That's always
good. Boy, I offer to pay for dinner, and all she wants is hamburgers. Oh well,
that's allright, we only had one burger anyway. Anyways, I'm off to my first date.
