We've been planning this for months and I thought that we would finally be able to start."[/color] A frustrated Manami paced around her bedroom, a cellphone placed to her ear and her arms waving around as she spoke. The person on the other line let out a sigh before speaking. [color=fff79a]"Manami people have lives, we can't all sit around the house all day and play games or read like you do. We have jobs, real jobs - not some Instagram shit that can be ruined in a matter of minutes."[/color] The person paused for a moment as if they realized what they had said and how much they actually hurt Manami, though instead of stopping they continued. [color=fff79a]"Seriously, you need to work on finishing college and starting your life, you can't hang on to this. Your living a double life and it can't be good for you, you should talk to someone. Find a friend close to you, not people who live hours away."[/color] The conversation didn't last long after that and afterwards Manami found herself simply sitting on her bed contemplating her life. She knew that her friend had been right, even if the words had been harsh. She couldn't be some "Instagram Star" for the rest of her life. Sure it had gotten her some small modelling gigs here and there, but nothing that was permanent. In fact she wasn't even sure she wanted to do modelling or whatever it was...no she had other dreams and aspirations. For the first time in a long while Manami remembered that this life, filled with fancy and uncomfortable clothing, make-up that felt gross and expensive food wasn't what she had wanted for herself. No she would much rather be at home playing games with her friends, laughing and joking at silly antics, curled up in her soft covers with a good book. She wanted to finish college and complete her graphic design degree, she wanted to create memorable and known logos that people would recognize all around the world. When had she forgotten that there was so much more she had planned for her life than this fake one? ▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃ Manami glanced around as she stepped out of the cab, there were people everywhere at the Ballpark. After her mid-life crisis back at home she wanted to get out of the house. Though instead of dressing herself up like she normally did she decided to go as "herself" or rather just feeling comfortable with herself. Instead of having her hair up all fancy it was down in lazy waves, no make-up whatsoever and an outfit that screamed "dork" all over it. A t-shirt that pictured the hufflepuff harry potter house, a pair of ripped jeans, white converse and various bracelets that represented different games or books. Luckily she was able to reserve herself some seats to save her the hassle of finding a decent spot, it took her a few minutes but she eventually found them. She watched the players warm up for a bit before letting her mind wander, her thoughts leading her to the fun time she had with Victoria. She smiled, she had enjoyed the other woman's company and briefly wondered how she was doing. Her gaze moved around to look at the people that were around, slowly the rest of the stands were filling up with excited people. She typically didn't watch sports or participated in them, though that didn't mean she didn't like them either. [/center]
