Of all things, learning a new currency was turning out to be a bigger hurdle than Aurica had expected. There was a reasonable supply of groceries already, but if she wasn’t going to burden anyone, she’d better buy her own fast. That was her plan, but...
“Ugh...” Eyes downcast, looking more than a little disgruntled, she looks over her list again, putting her fingers up to count before losing track of where she was. This is so embarrassing. Why am I so stupid...? She knew she was only a D-Class Reyvateil, but it shouldn’t make her utterly empty-headed. Come on! “So with this and this, we just have to add...”
The voice of someone behind her makes her jump, stepping back as she turns to see, list pressed to her chest. “I-I’m sorry...?” A moment longer and she realises the boy -- maybe around her age -- had given her the answer, clearly having noticed how loud she was being. Her cheeks flushing bright red, she shuffles awkwardly. “Ah, I mean, thank you... I really am stupid. Sorry for making you go out of your way with something that simple for me.”
