part 9: tabitha wants merch

You’re sure he just had something important to tell her, you say to yourself, only half believing it. You try to pay attention the second band on stage. Toward the middle of the set you think it’d make sense to buy some merch, maybe he’ll notice…

"just so young, desperate for attention"

No one’s at their merch table but you see a girl who looks nice sitting down two tables over. You ask her if she knows where they went. Probably to unload she says to you, while she looks over your shoulder at a cute couple that you don’t really notice. You find it weird that everyone else seems to notice them, though.

“I came hear to see Anthony.” “I noticed,” she says, “I also noticed him completely blow you off to talk to her.” When you turn around you realize that she was the girl that he was talking to, and now, she’s talking to someone else.

"Go find someone else to ruin"

Before you can ask, she says “That’s Nick. I don’t know who she is, and I’m Brianna.” “I’m Tabitha,” you say timidly. “If I were you, I wouldn’t buy a thing from him until you get an apology.” “You have a point, but maybe it was important.” “And you’re not? Oh, there he is…” “Oh! Thanks!”

She points over by the side door, and instead of going to him you go back where you were. From where he was standing he’ll have to notice you, and maybe you’ll get that apology.

He breezes by you, and you don’t bother to call his name. He sat behind his merch table. You could but that shirt now, but for some reason, you just don’t want one anymore.

"So try to forget me as I walk away"

It's CHARM CITY and you're starting to learn
