curry with a pair of shoes on top

I happened to arrive about fifteen minutes late to our meetup spot.

"No hat, hunh?" she said.

We walked our way to find a new pair of shoes for her, and made our way to Go Go Curry. Time for another Yelp-like review. Jeez, at this point I should just make an account. But anyways, the interior was cozy and small, with only two small tables and a bar. It was around dinnertime yet there was only one customer who had just finished his large-sized curry. There was only one employee, and he took care of the register and making the curry. All the while the Go Go Curry Japanese program was playing on the television, it seemed. The katsu curry, which comes on a tin plate, was decent, and the flavor was just right. I added some rakkyo to mine to boost the flavor. The curry itself is dark, not one of those light kinds. Overall it's a nice place for a quick lunch or dinner.

Once B finished her's she seemed to enjoy it fully. Sayonara! She said to the employee who was, based on my perceptions, not Japanese.

We walked aimlessly around the town, making pit stops at benches to rest every now and then. The way B walked was so adorable. I imagined each step she made making cute sounds. Bip Bop Bip!

Shortly an asian man, around his late twenties, walked across from us.

"B you would look so nice if you wore that," she said.
He was wearing slim, blue cropped pants with a white t-shirt and a small, black bookbag.
"Cropped pants?" I said.
"Yeaaa. That look is nice. Because you have the shoulders and everything."

At that time I reconsidered my outfit of the day. A muscle-fit yellow Hollister polo with some checkered pants. Before heading out I thought it was a decent, alright look, but the more I walked with the look, it seemed kind of off. Would a college student still wear those Hollister tees? I bet most have transitioned to Abercrombie at least, or something of that sort. But it's also important to not compare with others in how you dress. Just because this guy is wearing it doesn't mean you have to too. Peer pressure should not come into play with clothing. Have some pride, some originality. Don't sag your pants and jump on the bandwagon just because the millennial generation thinks it's hype. You don't have to do that in order to be cool. Keep your own style and be proud and embrace it. That's how I thought about it.

While sipping soymilk and eating some nori maki arare rice crackers, Bs feet starting to hurt again. Hopefully they aren't from her new shoes. All shoes are uncomfortable at first so it's normal to feel right for your feet at first. I suggested her to massage her legs and apply some cooling lotion, preferably some aloe gel or something to soothe the pain down.
