Fujisawa was reclining on a bench in a corner of the Barage Market.

Shayla walked up, her arms full of packages. "Hiya, sensei," she said. "Waitin' on Miz while she shops?"

"Yup," Fujisawa said cheerfully. "She's been gone since lunch."

Shayla whistled. "Even I've had enough shopping by now. But hey, you don't seem too worried 'bout it."

"We made a deal," Fujisawa said. "If she doesn't come back in..." He checked his watch. "...five minutes, *I* get to go drinking."

"No foolin'?" Shayla sat next to her old drinking buddy on the bench. "Sounds like a deal to me."
