Chapter 87 - Finding Common Ground

(Let's see if she can really send her away.)

Our character observes whether Anna can successfully send Riley away.

(She really succeeded; I can see that girls sometimes have manipulative traits over their friends. They are really good at it, in my opinion.)

Anna: Alright, we can start now, robot. Why have you been acting this way towards me?

****: Anna, hold on a minute. Even though I said I could trust you earlier, that's not the case because you spread some information around school and then brought Riley here out of nowhere.

Anna: We can't continue without trusting each other, but what are these things you say I spread? What did I spread? Is there something I don't know?

****: Anna, you know what you've done. I can't say it here.

Anna: Why can't you say it?

****: I just can't trust you.

Anna: But why?

****: Anna, never mind that. Can we just talk normally? I'm really tired right now.

Anna: Okay, you're right. Let's forget about that; it doesn't matter to us.

(Alright, the plan didn't work; she must be looking for another opening.)

Anna: How about we go grab a drink?

****: Sure, let's get a coffee. Do you know a place?

(Surely she knows a place.)

Anna: Okay, I know a great spot. You're going to love it.

****: Well, let's go then.

(Our character and Anna start walking.)

****: Anna, what do you usually enjoy doing?

Anna: What do I enjoy? Hmm, let me think... Yes, I'd say playing volleyball or drawing.

****: That sounds good.

Anna: What about you? What do you enjoy doing?

(Honestly, I don't even know what I like to do. I can't define myself.)

Anna: ****, are you there? Why are you waiting like that?

****: Uh, sorry, I also enjoy things like boxing matches, basketball, etc.

Anna: Isn't watching boxing matches hard? There's blood and all.

****: I don't watch it that much anyway, but it's not that hard.

Anna: You know, sometimes I watch basketball too. It's a nice sport.

****: I agree; it's a fun sport to watch.

Anna: So, who's your favorite basketball player?

(Damn, I don't really watch basketball; what the hell am I talking about? I'll just name all I know.)

****: I go back and forth between Curry and LeBron, sometimes Jordan.

Anna: I asked for one, ****.

****: One? If I had to choose, I'd say Stephen Curry. He's really a great player.

Anna: Yes, he really is a great player. His three-pointers are incredible.

****: What about you? Who's your favorite basketball player?

Anna: Mine is Luka Dončić.

(This name sounds familiar; I think I've heard it somewhere.)

****: Yes, he's really good at this, in my opinion. You made a good choice.

Anna: Anyway, how about we leave these topics and get a bit serious?

****: What seriousness?

Anna: I don't know; what do you think?

****: Okay, we can get serious, but when are we going to get to this place? We've been walking since morning.

Anna: We're almost there; just hang in there a bit.

****: Let's discuss these topics when we get there.

Anna: Alright.
