V3 Chapter 3: Last Vega

Just finished doing a load of paper works to get a permit of entry to the city of Last Vega at the immigration office in the space port together with Ms. Leane and Louise and damn, my hand is aching like hell.

To think that writing is more straining than punching a dummybot with my bare fists.

Why can’t they do all the paper works digitally to save more time and energy?

I mean, come on!

It took at least three hours for me to get my turn to do paper works and man I was bored as hell.

I had to play some crappy mobile game called “Rise of Nations” which is about clans and building a fortress and defending it from sadistic trash talking players who likes pounding some random noobs.

I wouldn't touch that game if it wasn’t for Lem who is somewhat unusually awake in the early morning, strongly suggested it while we were chatting on Spacebook messenger earlier.

I wish that game gets remove form the app store because damn, despite the high ratings, this game is garbage.

Anyways, we just have returned from the immigration office and man I am starving.

Well, what to expect since we were at the immigration for three hours straight with no food nor drinks since for some reason, any food or drinks besides water are banned inside the immigration office.

I bet the reason why is that the manager of the immigration office is a clean freak, and he or she doesn’t want any crumbs on the floor.

Either that or he or she is just paranoid of some unknown bacteria that foreign food can bring like a zombie virus.

Wait a minute!

Virus ain’t a bacteria…

Or is it?

Meh! I hate biology because of all the hard spelling weird names that I have to memories.

Good thing my current school don’t have biology classes.

While I was deep in thought for some reason, we have arrived at the pantry.

By “we”, I mean me and Louise since Ms. Leane mysteriously disappeared to who knows where.

I wonder where she ran off to.

Anyways, Louise politely excuse asked me a question.

“Young master! May I take my leave? I need to recharge my energy.”

I guess she’s running out of juice.

I respond to her casually.

“Yeah… Sure…”

After she heard my “okay”, she bows and thanks me.

“I thank you young master for your understanding.”

After that, she left.

After Louise left, I take a glance around for the fun of it.

As I did, I saw the others already eating including Ms. Leane who mysteriously disappeared earlier is now eating together with Professor Einstein.

Well, that solves the mystery.

That’s enough looking around for now.

Better get some grub or else I might collapse from hunger.

I walk towards the food counter.

As I arrived, I grab a tray and some utensils on the right most end corner and start grabbing some food.

Since there’s no one behind the corner to serve me food, I guess I just have to serve myself.

I went behind the counter and start grabbing me some plates of delicious looking food.

I grab two plates of blue cherry waffles, a plate of fried bacon and eggs, a rainbow grass yogurt ice cream in a teacup and a cup of hot creamy coffee that has a latte art of the Batman logo on it.

I’m guessing Clarissa made this coffee.

Well, there are other coffee with different latte art like the one with a pasture like landscape which is a damn shame to drink because it looks pretty and a deformed humanoid thingy which kinda looks like slenderman so the coffee with the Batman logo is the most appropriate choice for me.

(Note: The deformed humanoid latte art is actually Linel’s face which is made by a flustered Wren who is so embarrassed of her work, she decided to deform it.)

After I was done getting some grub, I head towards an empty table and start eating.

While I was eating, I suddenly felt like there’s someone staring at me from different directions which made me feel awkward.

I tried to ignore it and continue eating.

After few minutes of eating, this awkward feeling is getting worse and worse so I lost my appetite and stop eating.

Roc who was passing by suddenly stops.

“Hey man! Are you gonna eat that?”

He asked while looking at my waffles.

I think for a bit.

After few seconds, I come up with a conclusion.

“You can have it.”

“Thanks man!”

He said and grabs a waffle off my plate and wolfs it down.

After he had eaten my waffle, he didn’t stop there and start devouring the rest of my food like a starving zombie who is hungry for brains.

Since I don’t have an appetite, I just leave him be.

I made sure to take away my yogurt ice cream because it is blue cherry flavor and I have plans on eating it later once Roc is gone.

While Roc is enjoying himself, I heard chairs moving from different directions and food steps approaching.

Creek* Taptaptaptap*

I look around to see who it was.

Approaching from my left is Wren and from my right is Clarissa.

As they were near my table, they stop and shout at the same time.

“Hey!”

Which surprised Roc and made him choke.

Cough* Cough*
