Etsuko paused for a moment then looked at all the different kinds of the sweet treat. "Eto..I waaant...that kind!" She said, pointing at the most colorful flavor, feeling like a little kid again.

Akihiko smiled and nodded to the vendor, "You heard her." The vendor smiled and prepared the cone and placed the ice cream in it, handing it to Etsuko as Akihiko gave him the exact amount of money.

Etsuko smiled as she took the cone in her hands, "Thank you Akihiko." She licked the ice cream and smiled wider, "And to you too Mr. Vendor Man." Her whole being seemed to light up as she licked the ice cream, she hadn't had it since she moved here.

The vendor nodded and clean his station a little. "No problem," Akihiko said, he pulled Etsuko to a bench and sat down.

Etsuko sat down across from him and kicked her legs lightly. "Do you have a family Akihiko?" She asked out of the blue, tilting her head to the side a bit with a curious glance.

"Yup..it's pretty big. Most of them are in Osaka," Akihiko said, he leaned back on the bench and glanced at Etsuko. "What about you?"

Subject: Re: The Boardwalk Tue Aug 10, 2010 5:54 pm

Etsuko shrugged, crossing her legs and taking another lick of her ice cream. "Of biological family, I just have my mom." She opened her mouth to start talking about her father and grandfather, but slowly closed it again, deciding against sharing.

"Well most of my family in Osaka isn't biological..but they act like they are," Akihiko said shrugged, he closed his eyes and tilted his head up to the sky.

Etsuko tilted her head back and looked at the sky too, "Yeah that's like my relationship with My Cure." She smiled a bit to herself at the nickname, it really did seem the overly energetic boy was her cure for everything bad about her.

Akihiko nodded and opened his eyes. He stretched and moved his hand into his pockets.

Subject: Re: The Boardwalk Tue Aug 10, 2010 6:09 pm

Etsuko blinked when she felt a sticky liquid drip onto her fingers and looked down, noticing her ice cream was melting. "Nehh!" She proclaimed, grabbing a napkin and getting the ice cream off her fingers.

Akihiko glanced at Etsuko, "Eat it fast." He smiled lightly and ran a hand threw his hair.

Subject: Re: The Boardwalk Tue Aug 10, 2010 6:14 pm

(Virgin margaritas and toast don't mix..)

Etsuko smiled at his amusement and finished up the ice cream, not really sure what to do with the cone since she never ate that part. "Eto..I dunno what to do with this.." she looked around for a trash can.

Subject: Re: The Boardwalk Tue Aug 10, 2010 6:16 pm

"Eat it or throw it away," Akihiko said shrugging, pointed at a trash can a few feet away.

(I got to go.)

Subject: Re: The Boardwalk Tue Aug 10, 2010 6:18 pm

(Kay, seeya)

Etsuko closed one eye and aimed the cone at the trash can then attempted tossing it in, but missed completely. "And Kuro says I should do archery with him," she said with a sweatdrop, going and picking up the cone off the ground and putting it in the trash.
