Snippet #2547111

Chanan listened to Quiara's words carefully. He was not much of a talker, so he listened most of the time. Hearing her appreciation left him casually saying, "Welcome" He typically did not say the whole "You're welcome" phrase, just the "welcome" part with an "oo" sound before it. He was not particularly emotional most of the time (except when he was awkward, cracking a joke, or had a crush). But then the Israeli gaijin noticed... was she blushing? This left him feeling a little awkward. Sure, he had experience with romance, yet it was mostly failed romance, leaving him with a bit of a lack of confidence. Of course, by now, he was used to rejection or break ups, to a degree. He knew he had to play it slow, which he learned the hard way (more or less).

Her query of having him be a guard left him unsure of what to say, the woman's eyes causing an internal panic, followed by stammering for words. Great! She's going to notice, this time! It is way too early for that! "Uh... w-well... I-I mean... o-okay! Sure! No problem!" He cleared his throat to calm down prior to continuing. "So... where did you need to go? I hear cities here in Japan are mostly safe due to the overall low crime rate. Anyway, I have no qualms escorting, if it will help." Pull yourself together, Chanan!

Jenz went with the three little girls both to get supplies herself and keep the little ones out of trouble. She knew children had a habit of getting into mischief. Everywhere she went, there were stands in front of stores where people could easily grab the items displayed. The Norwegian girl correctly guessed the crime rate had to be extremely low in Japan. That realization was a relief to her.

However, she heard there were still plenty of sex-crazed people of various ages she could meet, and there was a schoolgirl fetish floating about, which meant she still had to be on her guard when going to her new high school in the mandatory uniform she just got finished organizing that was in her backpack. It appeared every middle school and high school had a school uniform for each gender tailored and handed out to students. She would feel so foreign and out of place compared to the Japanese majority among her peers, yet standing out would be something she had to get used to. thankfully, she had her best friend, Chanan, to keep her company in school when it starts. Hopefully, they would also see Quiara.

Jenz pitched in wherever she could, eventually treating the three kids to ice cream. The different flavors freaked her out a little, though, since some were eccentric to her, including leek flavor. Of course, there were the typical flavors like vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry, which put her at ease. "Well, we better get to the bus, now that we got everything on our list!" Back at the orphanage, Jenz helped the three little girls placing everything where it went.
