2 The Struggle

Xinyi returned home to her cozy little house on the corner of Okinohn street after all the chaos she had endured at the marketplace. Only to once again realize she had forgotten to give Selene her address so they could write back and forth . Xinyi thought to herself, "How in the world will Selene find me now?" Luckily Xinyi was quick witted and came up with a plan in a jiffy. So her plan ,similar to Selene's plan,was to head to the market place every weekend to try and see if she could find Selene. The plan might've sounded foolish,but it was the best option available at the time. After weeks of trying to no avail Xinyi was thinking of giving up,but she had a feeling in her gut that told her otherwise. She refused to quit searching for Selene and hoped that Selene was looking for her as well. One day while continuing her plan Xinyi had run into Takashi. Takashi had noticed Xinyi around the market for several days now,but never had the gut to go up to her. Xinyi being a flustered apologetic mess apologized for running into Takashi for several minutes. "Ack! I'm so sorry!" Said Xinyi. Takashi ,noticing how much of a mess Xinyi was, let the accident slide. " Oh, it's fine...I get ran into quite often I guess..." Xinyi said, "it's not alright, me being an imbecile ran into you...I've ran into so many people this last week it's like I'm doomed to be a klutz forever." Takashi trying his best to cheer her up said, "Don't say that!"Though nothing Takashi could say would cheer Selene up. Selene was far to upset to listen. "Hey listen,it's okay...I'm really not bothered by it just the other day this one girl ran into me and asked if I wanted to join her faction or something along the lines of it," replied Takashi. Xinyi,knowing he was talking about Selene, became full of hope once again. In a rush Xinyi asked Takashi if he had any contact with Selene, but to her surprise Takashi actually did have contact with her! You see the two have been exchanging letters over the past few weeks looking for the original leader of the faction. Takashi, without even knowing it, had been looking at her for weeks now. Takashi wrote down Selene's address for Xinyi and went back to shopping at the market. Xinyi ran off to go find Selene at her house and after a few minutes of running she had finally reached her destination. Slowly approaching the door Xinyi prayed for the best,that she was home. She knocked at the door, she felt as though she was stuck in an enteral loop of silence. After what felt like forever to Xinyi Selene had yelled from across the house, "Be there in a minute!" Yes! She was really there! Xinyi would finally be able to start her dream!
