Kaede:
That was rather embarrassing– The words of someone else snapped her out of her thoughts, her shoulders tensing up accompanied by a rosy pink tint on her cheeks. When Kaede focused her mind on something, she always did it with full-force.
“I-I’m sorry! That was weird of me, wasn’t it? I couldn’t help it.”
There had been a lot for her to ponder, but she’d hardly take it out on someone else. That simply wasn’t in her nature. Taking a moment to compose herself, she let out a quiet sigh with her gaze fixed on the one in front of her. “Jeez, that was a horrible way on my end to give a first impression. But.. Thank you for the concern. I just need to relax, is all.”
Takane stared, blinking in a clueless manner. This girl was an odd one, wasn’t she? Leaning onto the table, she rested her head in her hands while sighing. This was nothing she hadn’t dealt with before. Spacey friends seemed to be her specialty.
She shook her head idly, a concerned look still on her face.
“ What’s wrong? Are you doing okay? ”
Takane then spotted her empty cup, promptly leaping from her seat. Jerking her head in the other’s direction, she raises her eyebrows in a curious fashion.
“ Uh... I can refill that for you by the way... What were you drinking? ”
It was hard for her to act this way, but she had to keep her job. Plus, she’d feel just downright mean if she snapped at this girl. She seemed shaken up, and Takane could sympathize.
