Mundane Dreams - Part 3

"What brought you out here, anyway?"

"Just taking a stroll," I replied.

"Oh. By the way, congrats on passing the midterms," he said, patting my back.

"You too."

"Wanna come with me to the grocery store?"

"Sure."

It was clear from our conversation that Kimura had scored over two hundred in the midterms, giving him the extra ten thousand points. As we made our way to the commercial area, we chatted a bit but mostly walked in silence. When we arrived, it was bustling with people and we had to wait in line to get into the store.

"Should we just do some karaoke instead?" Kimura suggested.

"I don't mind either way."

"Well, I really want to buy something. Let's just wait, then.".

We joined the line and waited patiently. After about fifteen minutes, we finally made it into the store. Despite the number of students who were expelled due to the midterms, there were still many remaining in the school.

"The AC here is always a nice addition," Kimura spoke as he took a deep breath.
