Re: Who wants to be normal when We can be Special? (Club Scene)
"How long have you known her, Sparrow?" Tom said curiously, watching as Daiyu walked off. "She seemed kind of formal. 'Daiyu Ming of the House of Ming.' I mean, it would be like me saying I was Tom Flanagan of the Clan Flanagan."
He shrugs his shoulders and smiles. "My dorm room doesn't need a decorator, but my interest is piqued." He takes the card out of his pocket and looks at it again. Funny how she pulled it out of thin air like that. "I guess I'll be stopping by her shop in La Jolla sometime soon."
To Abe, he says, "There's three different feelings I get now - laughter from you, cold from Dean and Jack, and this sense of pain. I felt it outside, and I felt it just now, too, but there are a lot of people coming and going. I just assumed it was Daiyu since she knows Sparrow."
When Sparrow asks where they're staying, Tom nods his head. "Yeah, I was planning on taking a bus back to Pasadena for the summer. I guess I need to call my folks and let them know I'm staying in San Diego, at least for the summer. And I need to go to Alabama in August to do an Air Force course." He looks at Abe. "Yeah, I guess you're right. It would be good to get a place for all four of us."
