Along the dirt.

The morning festivities were awkward for Tic. Miraye was accustomed to slinking around naked after she had woken up without any notion in her eye. So it wasn’t different at all and it was plain to say that he stared at the ground below him as to not try to catch a glimpse. Miraye had no say at all for she wasn’t a morning person. She spent another hour in the bathroom basking in the water once again. After they got dressed, they went down to prepare the bar. It wouldn’t open up for a while since it was of the weekend and the customers would appear much later than usual.

Tic locked the bar door behind them and they set out to town. The roads were still wet and muddy and Miraye was having difficulty climbing out of the dirt in her heels. The shops were only opening and they slowly took their time trying to find out which door to enter. It only occurred to her that only one shop wouldn’t accommodate all their needs.

“Here’s what. You go get your things and I’ll get mine. I’ll meet you back in the bar at noon. And if they ask for payment, promise we’ll pay back within a week. Any trouble occurs and I’ll be at the bar.”

With those few words she departed.
