Time to go on a horror movie binge.

Seems like I need to replace my phone. I never know how much not being able to check the time bothered me until I started walking around the school campus without my phone.

So today my phone fell in water. It was there for no more than two seconds tops, but it's going haywire. Time to see if the old rice trick works.

Bump.
"I think it's cool," Sophia said with a warm smile as she navigated the maze of streets.
The part of town they were currently in was a lot older than the rest of the city, and it showed. The buildings were smaller, the roads were narrow and made of brick, and the shop signs were all hand-painted. There were neat little gardens and climbing ivy carefully tended to in order to make sure it didn't grow too wild. Overall this old shopping district was cleaner and quieter than the rest of the city, which suited Sophia perfectly fine. Most of this area's inhabitants were also older, but they were all polite and patient. To Sophia, stepping into this part of town was like stepping back in time.
There was an antique shop, the candy shop, a small clothing store, a bakery, a toy store, and a general store just to name a few. And the best part? Most of these places continued to make a lot of their products by hand even to this day. The candy store was by far the most modern business in this area, but for as much mass-produced candy that they stocked they made just as much from old family recipes.
"There's Krazy Kandy!" Sophia exclaimed happily as the colorful store came into view.

Bump.
The best thing about the Krazy Kandy candy shop was not only did they stock already made candy from companies like Hershey's, but they also made their own. Krazy Kandy made lollipops, taffy, chocolate covered rice crispie treats, and assorted flavored and filled chocolates. Oooooooh, the chocolates. There were ones filled with caramel, fudge, orange cream, fruit jellies. Amaretto flavored chocolates and coffee flavored chocolates. During certain seasons they had flavors they made only during that time, certain decorations they used. What Sophia really loved was that you could by boxes of varying sizes and fill them up with assorted chocolates. It was a lot better than the assorted boxes sold in stores.
Sophia was almost drooling.
And Tim agreed to go.
"Yay!" Sophia cried happily as she was completely overcome with excitement. She couldn't wait to see what they might have out at the moment. Maybe they'd have eggnog chocolates, or cinnamon ones, gingerbread flavored, little marshmallow snowmen, chocolate covered pretzels made to look like Christmas trees.
Sophia's face was shining with excitement and she happily squeezed Tim's hand while declaring, "Let's go then!" She tugged Tim toward the town square and Krazy Kandy with a happy spring in her step.

Bump.
On the walk back to Tim's apartment Sophia had been able to sense her friend's discomfort. She could easily guess the reason as to why. For now she tried to push her own uneasiness out of her mind in order to reassure him.
"About the library," Sophia started kindly. "It'll be alright. No one was bothered by what happened and I'm sure no one blames you for it. Don't worry about it, ok?" She gave him a smile to reinforce her words that everything would be alright. A stack of books falling wasn't a huge deal after all.
Recalling what Tim had said earlier about how they should hold hands more often, Sophia decided to do so. She slipped her hand in his and instantly felt a warmth blossom in her. Her uneasiness left from reading David's message began to subside and she felt better.
Sophia wondered where they should begin at the town square and thought over the places that was there. Clothing stores, a game store, a book shop, places that sold knickknacks, a candy shop, a kitchen store, an Asian market, and lots more.
"Do you want to swing by the candy store?" Sophia questioned. "They might already be working on putting out their holiday specials."

Sophia's heart nearly stopped when the pile of books tumbled to the ground. Thankfully they were on the third floor where there were very few people, but Sophia still felt really bad that they had deserved the peace. And she felt bad for the books too. It wasn't a terrible incident, however, and the other patrons of the third floor seemed more concerned for Tim and Sophia's well being than for the sudden disruption.
"Yes, thank you," Sophia said as she gave the Korean girl a smile before leaning down to start picking up the books.
The girl approached, offering even as she began to gather the books, "Here. Let me help with that."
"Thanks," Sophia said again.
"An interesting selection the two of you have," the girl noted as she and Sophia set the books on the table.
"Yeah, we're doing some self-study," Sophia told her. The girl likely wouldn't believe her if she told her about the tunnels, and she wanted to keep that a secret anyway.
After they had gathered all the books Sophia thanked the girl once more before she went on her way. Sophia and Tim chose what books they wanted to check out, put the rest back, and then went down to the first floor to check them out. From there the two made their way back to Tim's apartment to drop off their books.
"Off to the town square," Sophia declared, giving Tim a smile. Meanwhile, her phone sat in her pocket on silence so Sophia wouldn't hear message after message coming in.

Relaxing a bit, Sophia closed her book and sat back. She thought of what they could do. What she didn't want to do. She didn't want to be home alone right now after getting David's text message. If he knew her phone number he might know where she lived. Going home and being alone was the least smart thing Sophia could do.
She really wanted to stay with Tim where she felt safe. Being somewhere public would be even better.
"Let's bring some of these books back to your apartment," Sophia suggested. "Then maybe we can go walk around the town square and see how the decorations are coming along. Maybe visit the park and see when ice skating is going to start up."
Yes, that seemed like a good plan. Staying out in the open with lots of people and Tim by her side. Sophia could handle that and the distraction would calm her nerves.

Sophia jumped in her chair, startled by Tim's words and his sudden closeness. She felt her heart racing a mile a minute from the scare as well as from David's text. Part of her brain realized that now was not the time to freak out. Quietly she inhaled and forced herself to calm down.
It's not like he's my boyfriend anyway, Sophia suddenly thought with a mixture of annoyance, worry, and--to be honest--a bit of disappointment.
Then she thought, Damn.
Tim had noticed that something was wrong, but she was going to have to lie to him about what. Sophia didn't want to tell him that David had just text her. He knew that David and the others had caused her trouble in high school, but he didn't know the full extent of it. Sophia had only shared all the information of her hellish senior year with one other person. Even her parents didn't know all about it.
While stretching and trying to appear as if she was trying to relax, Sophia let out a soft sigh. "I'm getting a little tired from all the reading," she lied. Lying had come easily to her over the course of her senior year, given that she had to hide so much from her parents and friends. "Shall we call it a day on researching and check out some books to take home?"
