[Secondary] oHarmony Match: Sakura and Eddy

[Creatia]

It was a darker section of one of Coruscant's pristine shopping districts. Metallic buildings towered over black asphalt. A few blurs of cars raced past vibrant crowds of all sizes and types strolling and jogging along the sidewalks. Night had long fell, and the pale lighting of a few local storefronts had flickered out to signify closing time. It was in the shadows underneath one of these dimmed shops that a lone woman waited in what some would see as an odd sort of attire for a female her age.

Outfitted in a dress lined with princessly frills, she stood there in silence. She pushed up her lacy bell sleeve to check her watch while waiting in the shade that lined the concrete. An impatient tap of her Mary Janes clicked against the path. Blue eyes scanned the area left and right while she brushed back a few brunette strands. She was clearly waiting for someone.

I gave up two hours of checking inventory at the shop for this date. He had better show up... Her pink-stained lips turned downward as she took another look at her watch.

Sakura Mikeru took her sweet time initially when she first started her trip. After getting an invite to meet in person and setting up the finer details, she closed up her tea shop in the Moors to hop a ride to Coruscant. Now, here she was, waiting for someone named Eddy. Or at least that's how he introduced himself in his profile... which didn't appeal to Sakura that much.

I should've just stayed home. He seems like one of those playboy types. But... when was the last time I... Her face flushed at the thought. Yes, that was the only reason she accepted his invitation to meet. Other than that reason, she didn't expect much else from this. She assumed him to be a player, a man not worthy of much else in terms of relationships. So she planned to take this date in stride. Treat others according to how they act. Maybe by doing so, she can avoid dirtying her new dress.

But that risk may not arise if he didn't arrive soon. Five more minutes. That's all I'm giving him. Then I'm shopping for a new petticoat and going home. With that firmly in mind, Sakura continued to wait.
