[Junna promised Lisa that they would talk about what happened in her Disturbance for Lisa. It wasn't something to do right away -- not after they'd been through so much, and not before Junna had some time to get everything straight in her brain. She didn't quite manage that; the Disturbance was a lot to process. But she was feeling better, now, and she didn't want it put off forever.
True to form, Junna put a lot of planning into how to talk to Lisa about what happened. She settled on a place: a pool hall in Yumemigaoka, where she could get a private room that would be just them. An activity -- playing pool -- so they'd have something to do besides just talk and, hopefully, keep them focused. A park nearby, so they could cry it out after all is said and done. And, the next day was White Day... and that meant they could do something together, make up for something the both of them missed out on last month, and have something to look forward to.
But, as Robert Burns said, "the best-laid schemes of mice and men." She can't know for sure any of this will work... and she's nervous. She is trying to not let it show, but being an actress can't hide everything.
She walks into the room with Lisa at the pool hall. It's a small room, with a single pool table, with balls for 8-ball laid out on the table -- already in the triangle, with a metal holder to keep them in shape -- and a rack of pool cues on the side. There are a couple of chairs, a table, and a frosted green glass overhead light hanging down. It's very classic. Junna lays her bag down on a chair, and then puts down two bottled sodas on the table. Then, she looks back at Lisa.
She smiles, and it's a genuine one. Her expression has some tension in it -- but she's determined. She made a promise to Lisa, and she aims to keep it.]
