Manami was glad when she saw the familiar face of Victoria, a smile slipping across her face as the girl approached her. She accepted the hug, was even glad for it. To be honest it felt nice to have a hug after the ordeal with her mother. When Victoria commented on her outfit she felt a spark of pride and her confidence boost up, she often felt weird when dressing normally so it felt good to have the compliment. [b][color=a187be]"Thanks, you look good too. I love that coat actually, plus the color really suits you."[/color]  [/b] Manami might love her nerd side more but she also had an eye for fashion, whether she liked it or not.          

She felt herself tense a bit when Victoria asked if she wanted to talk, [b][color=a187be]"Um....a bad morning, some drama with family. Probably stuff you wouldn't even want to hear about. I don't want to bore you to death or put a damper on a fun time. Though food is totally something I can get down with." [/color][/b] At the mention of food she realized she hadn't eaten all day, between the episode with her mother and almost having a breakdown at home she hadn't noticed how hungry she really was. Just the thought of getting something yummy made her stomach growl. She appreciated though how Victoria wasn't dwelling too long on her "bad morning", instead opting to point out how ridiculous people were without their coffee. [b][color=a187be]"I'm a morning person so I don't really need the caffeine, I just drink it for the taste mostly. But your right, does seem like they are like zombies without that kick."[/color][/b]

She let out a small laugh as she sipped on the hot beverage in her hand, letting out a content sigh. She then looked to her friend, studying the girl for a moment before speaking. "Could I get your opinion on something?" Manami hesitated for a moment, while she trusted Victoria she wasn't sure if her new friend wanted to hear about her home problems. She probably had issues of her own, plus being pregnant on top of that probably didn't help. But a question couldn't hurt, could it? [b][color=a187be]"I have....a friend. Her parents think that she is their personal cash cow and pretty much guilt trip her into doing what they want. She wants to do her own thing but feels like she can't or have her parents hate her. What should she do?"[/color][/b] Manami had no doubt that Victoria would realize that she was referring to herself but it made her feel better to pretend her issue's weren't her own.
