"So, Damion, how long have you lived in Japan?" she tried to steer the conversation in a lighter direction. Looking over at Damion as he settled behind the wheel, she couldn't help but feel a bit nervous about where this unexpected encounter might lead, while also hoping for a sense of belonging and connection. Saki climbed into the passenger seat, sitting carefully so as not to disturb anything within the spacious cabin. "Well, your place is on the way to the base I work on anyway." Damion chuckled. "Yes, please! I would appreciate it if you could give me a lift." My uncle bought it new when he made the rank of Master Sergeant back in '87." He replied while unlocking the driver's door, "You need a ride anywhere?"įeeling grateful for his concern, Saki quickly nodded in response to his offer. "'s a Buick Grand National Experimental or GNX for short. Her desire for acceptance and companionship overpowered these concerns. "That's quite an interesting car you have, Damion," Saki commented, attempting to strike up a conversation despite her initial insecurity around strangers. She approached the sleek muscle car, taking note of its unusual design, admiring it from afar. my name is Saki," she replied, a little surprised when Damion showed interest in talking to her further outside the convenience store. "So what's your name?" Damion asked as he walked to his 1987 Buick GNX. Afterward, he gestured towards the exit, indicating for her to leave ahead of him.

"Thank you," She spoke softly, still caught up in her happiness from earlier as well as the fact that Damion, someone she recognized from school, stood in front of her protectively. He scowled and walked off, leaving the girl standing there with Damion, still nervously blushing from his arrival. The shady man glared at Damion, clearly annoyed with him interrupting their interaction, but seemed to back down nonetheless. "Hey, you.you need to dip, buddy." Damion said. Rather than risk letting the young girl end up in a bad situation, he chose to do the latter. "No! Don't be silly! It'd be terrible of me to snatch a book away from such a cute girl."ĭamion debated between either going on with his day or intervening. It's all yours, if you want it." The girl blushed "Ahhh, is that the last copy of MonMon? I've been looking for that." The man said. The girl on the otherhand looked to be one of those naive types who would take any compliment that was given to her because she wasn't used to the attention. As he bowed to the cashier, he noticed a rather shady guy with red hair and numerous piercings chatting up a high school girl. He was glad to be out of his usual MARPAT uniform, instead wearing some sweats and a hoodie.
