[b]Himura's Location: Cafeteria[/b]

The girl seemed to stop following him. Himura didn't turn back but continued his pace towards the kitchen and left her behind without another thought. [i]"She probably wants to see the academy for herself. Well, better than speaking to me I guess."[/i] He marched on, until the crowds of the cafeteria could be heard. People mumbling and talking as clicking and scooping of spoons skid against mouths. There was no door close by to the Cafeteria. [i]"Things have changed... This is not the school I knew, but it feels the same."[/i] Mutterings of another set of students made Himura's ears rung as he stood by the Cafeteria's entrance.

"Y'know, this place is different. Look at this. I used to go here before and the place isn't the same." The boy said to his friend beside to him who seemingly disagree with him. Himura kept his ears tuned to hear their lipping channel.

"You're mistaken! The photographs I got when I enrolled showed exactly this! You're just being a little superstitious. There's no conspiracy going on here." The two students were now directly behind Himura where he stood still. Their footsteps ceased as if they just stumbled upon a tall brick wall. They must be thinking what is up with the stranger standing in front of the Cafeteria? Himura peeked his head behind him. "Umm, excuse me?" The boy asked. Himura could only give them a nervous smile and pushed the cafeteria door open and gestured them to walk in. "Thanks..." The students gave him a look that meant to condescend before entering and moving away as quick as they could. In the distance, Himura could hear them speak.

"What a weirdo... What was he doing..." The chatter was interrupted with the apparent crowd. It took Himura a while until he let go of his hands from the cold handle and made an entry for himself, queuing to a nearby line and waited as he looked around the entire cafe. The place was refurbished and rebuilt. How Kalmasyia gathered their funds was a mystery, but they sure had plenty of money that they could spend to make the cafeteria this great. It had an incredible vintage cafe look. Everything was made out of solid and polished wood. The menu boards were still the old neon and screen technology but the cashier was far more advanced. They have these magical pads that they use and with a push of a finger onto its screen, it understands and makes the order for you. It's curious.

The queue was shortening fast. Perhaps because some of the service was now 'automated', queues die down quickly. In no time, Himura was in front of the pad and searching for what he had in mind after all this time; water. Now that he is at the cafeteria, it seems to be a waste of opportunity to not order other foods after water. So, in additional to his water, he ordered his personal favourite meal-- the egg salad and some katsu. He walked away after making his order, wondering how good the food would be and when it would actually be made ready to serve.
