《I want to live》ch. 2 New world

“Hey!!... Hey!! Wake up you beggar!”
I open my eyes in a hurry and find a guy dressed like the guards from the island. I stand up in a hurry as I prepare to fight. The guard just looks at me dazed.
“Are you going to attack a policeman!?”
Wow, policeman is quite the strange name. I take another look at his clothes just to see that they are different from the ones in the island. Apart from that I see a big "POLICEMAN" in his uniform, it's the first time I see someone with his name in his clothes, is it common in the city?
“Sorry, I thought you were another person.”
I look at policeman heart and it’s not happy. I incline my head to show my sincerity. His heart turns a little calmer.
“Just get out of here, I don’t want to see you sleeping near here.”
I can’t sleep here? Well, I don’t understand policeman that well so I’m just going to get out of here.
I see some stairs not far away so I walk up to them.
What! Those have to be the cars the guard mentioned. They are so fast… how do they move? I try to call someone from a car but he almost runs over me. Well, I supposed they are quite dangerous. I walk along the sidewalk just to see the buildings. They remind me of the island, but they are quite colorful, so I think they aren’t that bad.
I walk around the buildings seeing through their windows. I see some places with a lot of things. They have to be the shops the guards said. I see a lot of people in a lot of different clothes and all of them are looking at me dazed. Why are they seeing me like that? Do I look strange? There is a building that have some windows I can’t see through so I get nearby.
Whaaat!? A person came from the glass exactly when I got near so it scared me. Strange... he’s just seeing me; I salute him with my hand just to see he doing the same thing at the same time. Upon further inspection I reach the conclusion that it’s me the one the glass. I’m quite amazed. I’ve never seen myself.
I look quite tall, probably around 6’1ft, my hair is brown but there’s some dark red, it reaches my lower back, my eyes seem a brown heavily dark, my body is slim but looks firm, I see that my clothes are very tattered so I have to get new ones, maybe that’s the reason policeman thought I was a beggar, lastly my face is what startle me more, it looks strange, I take a look at the other people passing by and notice that their face is quite different from mine. I don’t get if my face is good or bad, but at list, I know is not normal. I guess I should ask someone.

“Hey! Do you think my face is good or bad?”
“Kyaa!”
I ask a woman passing by. she reacts a little strange, she was seeing me directly when she was passing by so I thought it would be fine to ask her but it seems I scared her.
“I, I mean… you look go… good.”
She answers while stuttering, she seems scared so I don’t know if I should take it seriously. I look at her heart and it doesn’t have any fear, in fact, it’s extremely delighted. Ahah I don’t understand what’s happening so I look for a clothing store and go for the one that doesn’t have that much people. I look back at the woman and she looks very sad. Why?
I enter the clothing store and look for someone, I see someone with a uniform so she should be the owner of the clothes.
“Hello, could you trade me clothing for some of this?”
I show her the money in my hand, she looks at me dazed, her face turns red.
“W, which type of clothes?
“It doesn’t matter, just give me an entire change of clothes.”
“A, alright.”
She runs and brings some clothes to me. Am I that scary?
“These ones would be fine sir?”
“Yeah, they are fine.”
“Accompany me please.”
“Ok.”
She brings me to a table; it has a magic box that shows some signs or things I don’t get.
“It is 45 chips.”
Chips? Oh, I think she refers to the money, so they call it chips. I took 45 chips and give them to her.
“Sir… you gave me way too much.”
“What? You said 45 chips.”
“Yeah sir, but this paper alone it’s worth 100 chips, and you gave me 45 of them.”
“You said that one it’s worth 100 chips!? How do you know?”
“Sir, the paper has a huge 100 in the center”
Oh, I inspect the paper and see the thing the girl told so I suppose that things determine its worth. Her heart looks a little angry so I take the remaining money.
“Do you have some place I can change my clothes?”
“Yes sir, just go there and you can change your clothes behind that door”
She indicates me the place with her hand. I go through the door she told me and enter a little room where I change my clothes. Some of the clothes have a strange mechanism but I more or less manage to put them.

I go out of the room and go to the entrance of the place.
“Thank you”
“You are welcome, sir”
…
Aaahh, my stomach hurts, I have so much hunger. I see a woman with some food in a bag so I approach her.
“Hello.”
“What do you want!?”
She looks very angry but when she looks at my face, she changes her attitude. I'm impressed by her ability to control her mood.
“Sorry, do I know you?”
“I don’t think so.”
“So… what do you want?
“Do you want to trade some food with me?”
“Sorry, what?”
“Yeah, I mean. I have some of this”
I show her the money I have.
“Is this some kind of joke? Cause right now I don’t have time for jokes.”
“No, I just haven’t eaten since yesterday.”
“So why don’t you just go to some fast-food place or something?”
“What’s fast food? Does the food run?”
She looks me with a lost face. Did I do something wrong again? She sees me for some time. She is thinking so I don’t interrupt her.
“Alright, follow me.”
“Ok.”
...
She brings me to a place with two big yellow arches above the door. There is a smell I don’t know but it's quite pleasant, if it weren’t for another extremely unpleasant smell coming from some doors at the left of the entrance, this could be quite a nice place.
She looks at me for a moment. Why does she always seem thoughtful when she looks at me? Is my face that strange?
“Hey, I think I haven’t told you my name, I’m Lynda”
“Oh, I’m Chrys”
Oh, so her name’s Lynda, do I have to say my name when I greet new people? It makes sense since it makes it a lot easier for communication. Now that I look at her, she looks quite normal, just like the women I saw outside, she is somewhere around 5’5ft, long black hair, brown eyes and her body doesn’t seem to be trained, I wonder if she knows how to fight, her clothes are some gray uniform-like ones. They seem a little uncomfortable to wear.
“Well, Chrys, it's time to order some food, just follow me and do what I do”
“Got it”
We walk up to a big table with some of the magic boxes I saw earlier and a funny-looking guy talk to us.
“Good afternoon, may I take your order, ma’am?”
“Yeah, it’ll be number 4”
“Alright, and you sir”
“Yeah, it’ll be number 4”
“Ok, that would be 10 chips”
She looks at me with an expectant look. I don’t get it, what does she want from me? Hhmm…
She told me to do what she does so I look at her expectantly too. She sighs and take some money out, she gives it to the boy. I do the same. The boy looks confused but he still grabs my money. He thinks a little, looks at Lynda and gives the money back. I wait for him to give me back my money but he doesn’t seem to have that intention, instead he tries to give me some little paper back, is this the gender discrimination the guards talked about? Lynda takes a little paper from the boy.
“Your order will be ready in about 10 minutes”
“Thank you, hmm, where’s the woman bathroom”
“It is at the left of the entrance”
“Thanks
“Thank you, hmm, where’s the woman bathroom”
Both Lynda and the boy look at me with strange face. Did I got wrong what Lynda said?
“Hmm... it’s at the left of the entrance”
“Thank you”
Lynda takes my hand and brings me to a table. Her heart is a little annoyed.
