"So, Ты are forteen?" I ask.
"Yup, I am," says Teddy and utters a short giggle.
"And you, Elaf?" I say to continue the conversation.
"I'm fivteen," she smiles.
"Well, then I guess there are some years between your ages and mine."
"Aha," says Teddy. "So where are the otehrs, Shun?"
"I dunno. I went out alone so I didn't contact them."
"I see."
We keep quiet for a while but then Teddy seemly wants to start a conversation as much as I want:
"I just can't believe I'm here!" she says. "I mean, in Japan! It really is a dream come true, isn't that so, Elaf?"
"Sure thing. I've always hoped to visit Япония although I always felt that it'd never happen. It's really good to be here."
"That's good to hear," says Shun. "Then I guess Ты two don't really know the places here, do you?"
"Not really..." says Elaf and Teddy nods.
"Very well then. Perhaps I could be there to Показать Ты around a little?" I say with a feeling inside of me I don't really understand. I know I wouldn't say this to any person I know. Teddy and Elaf might be different after all. And I think it's because of that dream I had two months ago.
"Sure, that'd be very nice of you!" says Teddy.
"We could need some help," says Elaf.
Yes. Two months and I still remember them so good that I even recognise their voices the first time I hear them in reality, even if it's at long distance. I throw a glance at them and see that Teddy is wearing a thin, purple блузка with something white under, and black pants. Elaf is wearing black pants as well, but with a dark blue jumper with white spots on.
"I was about to go to the mall," I say. Are Ты interested to go there?"
"Why not?" says Elaf and adds a big smile. "I've always loved galleries!"
"Me too! Ты find so many things there," says Teddy. "Luckily we have the money, so let's Переместить it!" she jumps once and lifts her arm to the summer-blue over us, and the white spots on it.
"Heh, sure," I smile.
We've been at the shopping mall for five hours and I've realised something. Going shopping with a lady is one of the most exhausting things. And simply it's twice as exhausting with two girls at once. But of some reason it feels different everytime I think that it's Teddy and Elaf, why? Even I don't have the answer.
A little while after that I've been waiting for the two of them outside a Магазин called "Madame", I see Teddy hurring towards me. What now?
"What's wrong, Teddy?"
"Huh? Hehe, nothing! How anxious Ты turned all of a sudden," she laughs.
"Whatever..."
"You must be tired by now, aren't you?"
"No, no sweat. I guess..."
"You don't sound like Ты mean it," she says and I easily sigh as well as uttering a short laughter.
"So are Ты possibly done shopping yet?" I ask and look at the approximately seven shopping bags she's holding in. For a секунда I even stare at them but then she what she says catches my attention.
"Actually, Elaf wante to New Yorker, too."
"What's that?"
"Ummm... A shop? Ты really didn't know?"
"I've never heard of that one."
"Haha, and I thought I am bad at it. Anyways, Elaf is coming in any minute. I just thought I'd come look for you."
"Speaking of which, what is Elaf doing anyway?"
"Trying some clothes. Gosh, Ты should've seen her expressions whever she saw a garment. But how can Ты blame her? Clothes in Япония are so breathtaking!" she says with a voice that Фаны use to have when they meet their star.
"Oh, well..." I say with a wondering tone.
After I asked Teddy where their friend, Maria, is and she tells me that she's on vacation, Elaf comes walking towards us with countless shoping bags from different stores. Madame, Flash, H&M, Bubbles, Sisters, Zarah, Zero, Glitter, Fashion Store, Donna, Vero Moda, Next, Stadium, JC and even MyTrendy Phone... How do they do this? I really don't understand.
"I'm sorry for leaving Ты waiting guys," says Elaf and stops in front of us. "I bumped into a girl in my age and Далее moment we stood talking to each other.Guess I have a new Japanese friend," she says and seems very happy.
"Well," I say. "I think we better hurry to that New Yorker while we're still here. After that I barely wanna enter this place," I say and add a short laughter which makes them understand that it's just a joke.
"Oh, Shun," says Teddy and laughs. "Cheer up already!"
"Hey, what about we go to New Yorker another time, Teddy?" says Elaf.
"I never thought you'd say that," says Teddy. "Sounds good to me!"
"Mhmm. I don't think I can carry much more," Elaf smiles.
"Let me help," I say and take around nine bags, four from Teddy and five from Elaf since she has some more.
They thank me and right after that we left the bags in their appartment, they invite me to dinner. Fried chicken with salad, potato and оранжевый juice. It's really good, I have to say, and it's even еще impressive seeing that it's made by two girl around 15. After I thank them for the meal Teddy wants to go out. I think it's a good idea and Elaf agrees as well. We could need some fresh air now after the meal. I feel like meditating under a dark sky this time.
***
We walk to that bridge again because Elaf wants to have a look at the sea as it's dark, and so do Teddy and I after she сказал(-а) it. For being such a long and huge bridge it's rare that no one is here. This time I only see a girl sitting on the bridge without moving a finger. Isn't it dangerous to sit so close to death? The sea may be far away from her, but still below her. When I look at Teddy and Elaf, I can see that they get a bit worried as well. That girl could fall down in any second.
Is she planning something?
