Default Anna / Shopkeep

The contrast of the bowling alley from the market space outside, was striking. (haha) It was dark. There were flashing lights. Someone – Something? - was yelling loudly and randomly. It smelled odd. It felt a bit seedy.

And Kalen loved it. It reminded him of home, which was something he had been sorely missing since he had started college, no – they called it university here - in England. Why he hadn’t argued more with his parents about studying in New York, Kalen still didn’t know. A part of him had though moving would be an adventure, a chance to learn new things from new people. He hadn’t realized it would be so lonely. Which is why he had agreed to this blind date in the first place. He needed to meet people. He just hoped this Anna he was meeting liked sports. Because if she didn’t, well, this date wasn’t going to go well. It probably wouldn’t last long either.

”Excuse me,” Kalen said to the person at the counter under the brightly blinking sign. ”I’m supposed to be meeting someone…don’t suppose they’ve already gotten a lane?”
