Alize blushed modestly at the compliment. She wasn't used to people calling her 'nice'. 'Stubborn', or 'fun', or 'talented', maybe, but not nice. "I was just being normal, that's all," she mumbled, then brightened. "Lunch, definitely. I've got enough clothes."
Alize glanced up the road at traffic and then at her watch. "Yup, we need to catch the 7 going south. It should be here any-- "
She was interrupted by the loud and tell-tale hiss of bus brakes nearby. With a small yelp, she dashed for the bus stop, waving the driver down so he'd know they wanted to get on.
Every single time, she thought irritably to herself. She'd never gotten used to the bus system in this city.
"Sorry about that," she apologized to Hakuba as they got on. She dropped in enough change to cover both their fares, and handed the detective his transfer as the bus pulled away from the stop. "I think the buses are only on time when you don't want them to be."
