   As if on cue, she hears their number called out. Quickly, Rosemary gathers their food and brings it back to the table. ❝Doesn’t it smell wonderful?❞

 Taking in the smell of fresh pizza, they return a slight smile. “It does smell really nice. I’m sure that it’s taste will be even better.”

traumeriin:

    ❝Yeah? Well it’s a good thing we’re getting a bite then.❞ The little pizza shop normally doesn’t take very long so they will have their food soon. ❝Maybe all that shopping built up your appetite.❞

   “Yeah, it seems to work out for timing’s sake.” They give a little bit of a laugh. “Perhaps so. Doing some activity tends to rave up the interest in food.”

    Once Saima places their order, she selects a mushroom and black olive pizza for herself. It will take a few minutes for them to heat up their food so after purchasing their lunch she walks over to an empty table so they can sit.

   Once the order is placed, they join Rosemary at the empty table. “Can’t wait to get some food. I feel like I’m a little hungrier than I expected. ” An appetite would sometimes arise quite randomly.

  When they reach the little restaurant, Rosemary motions for her friend to go in front of her so they can order first.

   With a slight grateful nod, Saima goes in front so that they can place their order. It doesn’t take long for them to request a small veggie pizza. Can’t really go wrong with one of those these days.

traumeriin:

  ❝I know, but I want to do this for you.❞ Rosemary thinks little things like this are what friends are for.

   “Fair enough. And I’m just happy to be here to appreciate it.” They nod in return at Rosemary as they get closer to the food court.

traumeriin:

   As they begin their ascent to the second floor, she turns back to Saima. ❝Also, I’m paying for lunch alright? It’s my way of thanking you for coming out with me.❞

   “..If you insist. I’ll take that as solid payment even though I didn’t really need any compensation.”It was really never a big deal since Saima took pleasure spending time with friends.

traumeriin:

   ❝Perfect! If I remember correctly the food court is on the third floor.❞ As she says this, Rosemary leads the way to the escalator. Even though it’s been a while since she has gone to the mall she still knows her way around.

  “Well, feel free to lead the way.” Saima casually follows Rosemary to the escalator. Even though this is a new mall for them, there is still something familiar about wandering such an area.

traumeriin:

    Rosemary laughs as she nods in agreement. ❝Totally. Shopping is very exhausting work.❞ Her words are in jest, but she actually is hungry so she’s glad Saima agreed to get food with her. ❝There is this really great pizza place I go to every time I come here, so if that’s your thing then I’d definitely recommend it.❞

   “So much effort involved.” Another small chuckle, they give, although they sympathized with the need for food. “Hm, some good pizza huh? I’m always game for that since it’s one of your favorites obviously.”

traumeriin:

   Shortly after Saima goes up, another register opens and Rosemary is able to check out as well. When she finishes buying her item she joins her friend and smiles. ❝Alright, I’m all set. Do you wanna check out the food court?❞

   “The food court does sound good about now. Getting some new gear does work up an appetite.” They were being a little facetious but honestly, there was an appeal to getting something to eat while out and about.

traumeriin:

   Rosemary is nodding when she notices that they’ve reached the front of the line. ❝Why don’t you go ahead, I need to get my wallet out.❞

   “If you insist.” They didn’t like going in front of others like this but opted to go with it anyway. Pulling up to the cashier, Saima got their clothes rang up and purchased in a matter of minutes before they stepped to the side to wait for Rosie.
