After exchanging their numbers Asahina put her phone away with a somewhat relieved sigh, that situation had gone better than expected. She looked back to the lake, observing it a moment. Her thoughts had been really jumbled and hyper the past few minutes but she was a bit more calm now. Her friend was more of a comfort than she had originally felt. The two continued their walk, and Hina looked back to Veronica, "Sorry, I didn't mean to confuse you earlier. I would love to see both, the Cathedral and the Lake. It's nice to see the city, having just moved in and all that." She wasn't sure that was entirely her reason for wanting to go, but she was still happy none the less. Hina walked at a slower than regular pace naturally, but she was trying to go a bit faster than she usually did, as if trying to add more spring to her step to keep a better pace with the active Veronica. It had already been a little while that they had been walking around the lake, Hina noticed they had made it to the far side of the lake. She looked back to the city skyline, this time from the direction they'd come from. The lake's water was sparkling in the slowly setting sun, it bounced into her eyes several times causing her to look away briefly. She couldn't help but bitterly think to herself how annoying it was to lose the ability to look at the lake just because the sun was setting. "I think this was a good idea. It's helped me relax a little, I've been so stressed over work. Taking a bit of time to unwind is nice." Though this wasn't usual manner she did so, more regularly she would go home and read or just stare at the ceiling until falling asleep, but she was having fun here. |

"Well, could sneak here tonight. If not tired today." A bit odd choice of words, as the lake wasn't really fenced off or forbidden to enter at night. As the girls walked together, Veronica would interestingly stop taking so many pictures. Instead paying more attention to Asahina as they strolled through the lovely scenery. "Is good to do the relaxing. Stress too much, can't work as good. What old man say back home...? 'Breathe. Mind and soul at peace, body follow.' Words not sure, but idea same." Her encouragement was a bit awkward in its expression as usual, but amusing to think that Veronica had these little quips of wisdom just floating around in her head. The idea that Veronica had a spiritual side may not mesh entirely with Asahina's ideals, but she didn't seem to be pushy about it, at least. |

Asahina was curious about the choice of words. Sneaking into the lake at night seemed unusual since it was public property, there was no need to be sneaky about it. Perhaps there was something she didn't notice? She tried to imagine what it might be, but nothing came to mind. She let that thought sit for a moment as she responded to Veronica's encouragement. Hina wasn't very spiritual, but she still appreciated the kind words. "I've never really been much of a spiritual person." She said that in a rather matter-of-fact way, "But I think you're right, when I'm able to get my mind to relax, I feel a bit more at ease in general." She stretched her hands into the air, letting the cool winds wash over her for a moment. It was a relaxing feeling to have the lake winds brush passed her. She looked at Veronica and for a moment, gave an uncharacteristic smile when there eyes met. She noticed Veronica had stopped taking as many pictures, despite the lovely backdrop of the slow setting sun and the gorgeous view of the lake and the surrounding park area, her attention focused elsewhere it seemed. Hina's thoughts drifted back to the hug they shared earlier, and with a blush she instinctively put her arm around Veronica in hug as they walked. Hina thought of it as the best way to thank the girl for her words, and her presence. She also certainly enjoyed the strange feeling of love that she hadn't experienced before... |

"Is basic idea, yes. You look like woman with much of the thinking on the brain. No rest for mind, no rest for body." A side that Veronica was now revealing, it seemed. She was rather knowledgeable about health, both mental and physical. Her ill Sister probably was responsible for her interest in it all. Though she had yet to show her interest in medicine. Veronica looked a bit surprised when Hina hugged her back. "Ha, don't have to because I did. Appreciate warmth, but do what you want to." She was under the impression that Hina was doing that because she thought it was what the Russian girl wanted again. Though as to not appear cold, she wraps her arm around her shoulders and gives her a squeeze as a thank you before letting ago and continuing to walk. |

Asahina nodded, it was true that she spent far too much time thinking about things that in reality weren't all that important. Something in her head itched at her and she just started fretting, that's how she had been since she was little, as long as she could remember really. She always blamed herself and panicked about what others thought. It was something she wasn't very proud of, but at the same time she couldn't imagine being without. As a matter of fact she was starting to worry that perhaps this was a problem with why she was having a hard time figuring out how to respond to Veronica. Now she also realized she was fretting again... Her thoughts popped like soap bubbles the moment Veronica gave her a squeeze of a hug back. She gave a nervous smile and nodded once again, "S-sorry... I'm just sort of getting used to what I should be doing around a friend... so I've been trying to learn from what you do. Haha...haha...ha..." She quietly and nervously chuckled, had she done it wrong? She inwardly sighed to herself, she still had a lot to learn it seemed. Though Veronica seemed rather forgiving for Hina's lack of social skills. It was a relief, to have someone who she could share common interests with and get along with in such a way. This was certainly something she hadn't pictured happening when she moved to Rockport. The journey around the lake was reaching it's return trip now and she could see the bench and table they had been sitting at earlier in the evening off in the distance. The temperature was starting to dip slightly as evening began to give way to night. Soon the two would part ways and they'd be back to this lake again to visit in the dead of night, or so she believed the plan to be. It was an interesting proposal that she had taken up and she certainly was looking forward to it, and among other things, she was looking forward to visiting the cathedral from the photos as well. Things felt good, like her life was reaching a sweet spot, in a way. She liked that, and as a result, she tried to hold her head up and keep positive. Though that didn't last long as she worried that maybe she was being overconfident. She couldn't help but laugh at her conflicted feelings, a small nervous chuckle escaping her again. "I'll learn, eventually..." |

"You worry too much. Do what you want. If I am not of the liking what you do, am not good enough to be friend." That was blunt, but it sort of made sense... although as lonely as Asahina was appeared to be slipping her mind when she said so. "Should probably not copy me. I am sometimes wrong. Too touchy, am told." Personal space did seem to be an issue when one thought about it... but at least she was self aware enough about it. At the end of their walk Veronica smiles to her. "Yes. Always learn. Life is learn. Feel, express, only think when need to." Aside from the last comment sounding kind of ignorant, she still had more Words Of Wisdom (tm) stored away. Where she was getting all these would be an interesting tale, for sure. "Am understanding correct. meeting here tonight?" Double checking their plans before they parted was wise at least. |

Asahina nodded at the girl, she seemed wise to the ways of the world at least, and she was self aware apparently to her own possible ... faults? Perhaps not the appropriate word but Hina couldn't think of a better one. She continued to walk with the girl, so much time had passed in such a fleeting moment and she hadn't even noticed, but they were reaching the return point quickly and Veronica had made an effort to clarify future plans. Asahina thought over what they had discussed together today, and it seemed correct. The plan was to meet up again in a couple hours and look around and explore a bit. She started to shift her direction walking towards her car, the final destination of this little round trip. "Yes, if you want I'll come pick you up, and we can come back to the lake tonight. Do you need a ride home?" She didn't want to just leave Veronica to walk around or wander the streets until the appropriate meeting time, so she figured offering a ride home made the most sense. Though another idea came to mind when her stomach quietly growled. "Or maybe you'd like to get something to eat? My treat?" She figured they could just get something to eat and come back in an hour or so, that'd be just about the right time for their night exploration. At least, that's what she thought anyway? |

"Aw. You is so sweet. Am not terribly hungry. But can eat. Do not know town where to eat. Assuming you do? Will follow." Veronica gives a smile and happily goes along with her if she's serious, a pleasant evening to follow until the nighttime rendezvous occurs. ((Not much left to say sorry. We'll continue this elsewhere as an awakening thread, perhaps?)) |

Asahina quietly nodded, escorting the girl to her car and letting her in the passenger side. The car was near spotless, as if it hadn't been used. In fact it's possible that it rarely was. Hina sat down and turned the key, igniting the engine and pulling away from the park. She took Veronica to a nearby place, something they could both agree on and treated her to a meal. Their adventure back in the park was awaiting, and Hina was both nervous and excited. She did her best to keep up a back and forth with Veronica over the meal, but she couldn't help but think of what was in store for tonight. ((Exit Thread: Social Link +1 - See you in the awakening!))
