“Well then since it’s your day off, why don’t we admire it for as long as you’d like?”
It was their time to order as Bruce walked up, ordering what Zoe would want as he ordered a cappuccino for himself. The two cups would show as he kept his order and gave the nurse her (+)
Hulk would be noticed her getting onto the bike as he knew exactly what she was planning to do. He charged directly to the enemy, planning to use his body to be a barrier for both her and the bike.
ᅠᅠ
the omnic reacted immediately、evading to the side. “ aw. we could have been friends、‹𝘳ō𝘫𝘪𝘯›/old man. ” she mounted on her motorbike、engine revving up before launching the bike through the air、targeting at his direction.
ᅠᅠ
Bruce noticed her looking around the interior and smiled, leaning a bit closer to softly whisper to the nurse.
“I’m guessing this is your first time here?”
ᅠᅠ
“ i’d like an espresso. ” she replied. shortly、her attention shifted towards the shop’s interior⎯⎯artworks caught her eyes that was hanging next to a small lounge.
ᅠᅠ
The green giant would’ve let out a roar as he jumped up into the air and attempted to try and squash the other. She definitely did touch a nerve with him.
ᅠᅠ
eyes turned white momentarily⎯ blinking before looking at the giant in front. winced ever so slightly. “ touched the nerve. ” throat lit、indicating whenever she spoke. shion grinned. “ didn’t i?green man. ”
ᅠᅠ
Bruce would think about where the two should sit, but was more focused as what Zoe would want. He then looked over at her.
“What kind of coffee would you like for me to get for you, Zoe?”
ᅠᅠ
“ thank you. ” she said、entering in. it has been a while since she lasted step into any sort of cafe. usually、she orders in⎯or have what’s available in the hospital. there were multiple spots available、but she lets him decide.
ᅠᅠ
“Well I’m glad to be the one to lighten up your night, Zoe.”
He gave her a smiled once more before noticing the coffee shop just close by. Bruce walked over to the door and opened it for the nurse.
“After you.”
ᅠᅠ
“ it sucks. a lot. sometimes、i wish they do. ” zoe murmured at the end、but enough for him to understand. ᅠᅠlips curled into a soft smile、“ i’m really glad you aren’t、bruce. initially when you entered in、thought you be- ⎯¹.
ᅠᅠ
“{READER}…I need you…to run! GO!!!”
Bruce began to slowly turn himself into something…big, monstrous, and green as the creature glare at the enemy head on.
“I get it. Sometimes, people tend to misunderstand people such as us. Or rather, they just don’t appreciate us enough.”
He looked over as Bruce offered Zoe a reassuring smile.
“But I’m not like those people, Zoe.”
ᅠᅠ
hand glided back to her side once they started walking. eyes focused ahead; ears attentive to what he had to say. “ i like to help people. always have. but、i’m always knackered⎯⎯physical and verbally. it’s rough out here.. ”
ᅠᅠ
“Don’t worry, so did I.”
He nodded before slowly taking his hand back as Bruce guided Zoe over to the nearest coffee shop, which was about five blocks from where they are.
“And from what I saw that day, I know you care deeply about this profession.”
ᅠᅠ
‘few good out of many.’ she thought to herself.ᅠᅠ glimpsing at his hand before him. “ oh right⎯⎯coffee. nearly forgotten ‘bout that. ” accepting his offer as she stood up from the bench.
ᅠᅠ
“Well, you did some real good to me, so I wouldn’t say that.”
He smiled before remembering his offer as he yoked his hand off her shoulder. Bruce would’ve stood up from the bench and offered his hand.
“Come on. Why don’t we talk more over a cup of coffee? I didn’t forget.”
ᅠᅠ
she didn’t mind the hand on shoulder. a deep sigh eluded before speaking; “ it was rough... we were limited on supplies. i had to do things on my own that i’m afraid to do. he did guided me⎯⎯but.. i’m still no good to him. ”
ᅠᅠ
Bruce saw her expression and showed concern for Zoe. He didn’t want to push a confession out of her, but gently rested his hand on her shoulder.
“Yeah. I bet it was pretty chaotic when your boss was gone. Wasn’t it?”
ᅠᅠ
“ it’s going fine i suppose. ” her expression says otherwise. “ at least my boss is back at his station、so i don’t have to deal with that for the moment. ”
ᅠᅠ
“They’re slowly going away, and it’s all thanks to you.”
He sat himself down after she had scooted for him.
“How about yourself? Not the bruises, but work. How’s work treating you?”
