[indent]If Rina had felt out of place before, she certainly did now. On her left, Rina had caught a tall man staring at her, and on her right another woman had joined in, choosing to order the same thing as she had. Whilst the man had seemed to be off in his own little world and later smiled to himself, the woman on the other hand appeared to momentarily study Rina before deciding to open up to her in an attempt to have a friendly chat between the two of them. Despite the woman's friendliness, however, it had not changed the fact that Rina felt like she was in a fishbowl, with all eager eyes staring in her direction. They had obviously meant no harm, but Rina nonetheless still had felt uncomfortable perhaps even more so than before.

[color=silver]"Thank you,"[/color] Rina replied, after a brief period of hesitation. [color=silver]"I am not familiar with many drinks here. I would not suppose the resort would have some [i]sake[/i] or [i]umeshu[/i] laying around, so I had went with what I knew."[/color]

Watching the bartender squeeze some fresh limes into a measuring cup, Rina then turned to the woman who had spoken to her. Although she had just arrived to Carabo, Rina had seen many of the resort's guests pass on by throughout the day, and even now as she sat at the bar. This woman, however, was not someone she could remember seeing before.

[color=silver]"So what had made you decide to come to Carabo?"[/color] Rina proceeded to ask as a follow-up question to the woman, having come to realize that running from socialization here had ultimately been a fool's dream.[/indent][img][@Qia][/img]
