Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lyrica tried hard to resist the urge to kiss Nazimova's hand as they walked. What was getting into her? She was never this close to someone before especially not so quickly. Trying not to think too much into it, she guided them up to the ice cream shop. "Mm...so many yummy flavors. Do you have a favorite?"

"I do," she said to him, eyes still on the skirt. Leilani then looked up to him. "I would, yes. I saw some pretty sweaters near the corner." While holding the skirt, she gently took Tsukasu's hand and pulled him over to the rack of colorful sweaters.

Lyrica looked through the clear case then pointed to the large tub of butter pecan. "Favorite for me? That's a toughy." She looked over what was avalible and decided on the cookies and cream, asking the clerk for that in a sugar cone. "Cone or cup?," she asked Nazimova.

Tsukasu smiled contently at Leilani before nodding his head slightly, looking over the colorful array of sweaters in front of them. He looked over them, noting colors he thought matched nicely, but decided to let the girl choose. Are you hungry? Maybe I can take you to the food court once were done here to get something to eat, he offered.

How about over there, Hirohito gestured with his head, in the direction of a few empty tables. We can sit at the round one, he said, beginning to make his way over there. Once he was seated, he broke his chopsticks apart, smiling brightly to Chiyoko before taking a bite of broccoli. Oishii! he exclaimed.

I'll hardly spoil you, Tsukasu laughed, amused with the accusation. I'd like that, too, so, get some things you want and we can check out and have some lunch, he said with a bright smile, squeezing her hand gently.

Chiyoko smiled to him, giggling softly at his exclamation before breaking apart her own chopsticks and taking a bite of chow mein. Mmm, she started, swallowing. It is very good! The girl took another bite, though rather large this time, and bounced in her seat. Yummy.

Sounds like a plan, Nazimova grinned, following Lyrica to the table. This will be fun. I haven't done a gift exchange in so long!

Lyrica lead her over to the table then pulled out the chair for her before taking the other for herself. "To be honest, I don't think I've ever done a gift exchange. The people around me before expected me to buy them things but they'd never do anything in return...so I just didn't buy things for them. They were never happy about it." She licked the cold ice cream and smiled to herself. "Ice cream wasn't part of my diet very much either."


"I think I will, just to make sure I picked the right sizes. I was shown before which to choose but was also told sizes could differ." Looking around, now ready to get out of the sea of cloths, Leilani spotted the dressing room area, which she had also been told about. "I'll show you each outfit," she told him, eyes glittering as she walked into one of the stalls to change.

So this is Chinese food? Chiyoko asked, examining the food that was left in front of her. I think I like it a lot and I want it more often. The dark-haired girl giggled before looking to Hirohito. How often does Hiro-kun eat it?

I used to do gift exchanges when I was a pre-teen, Nazimova started with a chuckle, licking at her ice cream as well. For Christmas and such. You know, secret santa. The woman sighed almost dreamily as she closed her eyes lightly, licking again. And I can agree, it's been quite a while since I've had ice cream too. I usually stuck with sugar free popsicles, and that gets old really fast. She looked at the bag that contained Lyrica's gift and smiled warmly.

Reasons being? Acacia grinned, scooting closer to the boy as she tried to shake the thought from her head that his brother's name was the same as her father's. And you are cute. Good looking... Whatever you want to call it. You seem self-assured, but I suppose I shouldn't assume anything, huh?
