Wow… Jake/bear boy says somewhat surprise and mostly disbelief.
Wow what?
This is the first time I've somewhat seen you dress up for anything except your school attire.
So?
So… this friend of yours isn't just another ghost, yes?
You've already asked me so many times, yes. This friend is a human, one with a beating heart.
Alright, let's go!
Are you really gonna follow me?
You too have asked that many times, and the answer will remain as yes.
Yay…
Evelyn heads out and reaches slightly early to the agreed location with her friend.
Wow, you don't even reach on time for school but you do for friends?
School is boring, friends are less boring.
Hard to tell what you like seeing as your facial expressions are usually just the same most of the time. He says earning a small scowl from her.
Come on, don't be such a grouch. He says making her scowl increase.
Fine fine, I got it, I'll stop disturbing you.
Shut it, she's arriving. Evelyn says focusing her attention on an approaching girl her age, but with an appearance opposite of her own.
Wow… that's quiet the… cheerful appearance? You sure that girls your friend and not a look alike?
Shut up… Evelyn mutters under her breath as the girl approaches her.
Hi!!! You weren't waiting long were you? The girl goes over to Evelyn and grabs her hands enthusiastically.
No I wasn't waiting long for you Lela… why have you called me here?
Is it wrong to wanna spend time with my friends?
Wow, she's really the opposite of your personality. Jake/bear boy says.
Shut it… . Evelyn answers forgetting about Lela’s presence
The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
Wow, someone's unfriendly today, you in a bad mood or what? Lela says while pulling Evelyn's hand to the nearest amusement park.
No.. I didn't mean you, I wasn't talking to you…
Then who?
I was talking to… . Evelyn stares at Jake/bear boy and gives up. Nevermind, I was just daydreaming, pretend I said
nothing.
Hm? You're being especially weird today, but whatever, let's go! Lela says continuing to pull Evelyn's hand as she glares at Jake/bear boy expecting a mischievous smirk on his face but instead finding him somewhat deep in thought, which is rare for him
—----------------------------------------------
Jake's pov
—----------------------------------------------
Hmmm, that friend of Evelyn's seems oddly familiar, and I swear that she looked over at me just now with an irritated expression on her face. I wonder why she's so familiar. Jake/bear boy thinks while following behind the two as they have fun.
—----------------------------------------------
Evelyn's pov
—----------------------------------------------
Hmm, this feels oddly fun with Lela, but Jake/bear boy's been acting weird since just now, I ought to question him about it later. Evelyn thinks while allowing herself to be pulled away by Lela's enthusiasm.
—----------------------------------------------
Couple hours later
—----------------------------------------------
Come on, let's take a break, we've been going around for hours. Evelyn says, as monotonous as ever.
Fine fine, let's go have dinner yea?
Sure.
Lela and Evelyn looks for a restaurant with Jake/bear boy following behind Evelyn still somewhat deep in thought. As they arrive, and take a seat, Evelyn notices Jake/bear boy snap out of his concentration as they hits his fist against his palm as if he figured something out.
—----------------------------------------------
Jake's pov
—----------------------------------------------
Oh! I remember now, this girl looks exactly like the weird ghost version of the IRS in the town the council of ghosts protects.
Jake/bear boy uses his soul energy to probe Lela only for his energy to be sent back into him and Lela to glare at him secretly while Evelyn isn't watching. He tries to tell even only to see Lela make a threatening gesture with her hands along with concentrated soul energy to show that she can follow up with her threat making him keep quiet.
—----------------------------------------------
Evelyn's pov
—----------------------------------------------
Okay… something happened well I was looking away at the menu. She thinks to herself as she looks at bear boy/Jake clearly nervous which is rare while trying to hide it, but failing miserably.
Evelyn goes to the toilet and uses her eyes to signal for ghost boy to follow along which he hesitantly does while staring at Lela for some weird reason.
—----------------------------------------------
Upon reaching the toilet
—----------------------------------------------
Hey, wanna tell me why you're acting so weird?
It's nothing. He says nervously.
Yea right, now tell me why you've been acting so weird.
It's nothing.
Tell me. Evelyn says while concentration some soul energy, threatening to make him feel burned from the soul energy. Fine, fine! Put that away.
Evelyn does so, but prepares to concentrate more energy if necessary.
I'm acting weird as hell cus of your friend!
Lela? How?
It's cus she's—--
Hello! A sudden but familiar voice sounds out interrupting bear boy/Jake as they both turn around to see Lela.
That friend of yours is a ghost and part of that dam council! Bear boy/Jake says before hiding behind Evelyn from Lela.
Huh? Evelyn says confused looking back at Lela now letting out a lot of soul energy annoyed making it clear that beat boy/Jake want lying.
… Great.
