They played around with the AI for a few more minutes than switched stations. They walked over to the engineering station.
Riri was paying attention, but her mind wasn't there. Of course the reason was the woman beside her. She really wanted to say something but couldn't, considering all the people around and didn't want to cause a scene.
There was a certain glow going on about Shuri that it seemed like only Riri noticed. Maybe she had finally let go of all the grief. She did look way happier than she did six months ago.
Riri looked up for a second, only to meet eyes with Shuri. They both looked away quickly.
For the remaining time of the students' visit, they switched to their last stations. Once everyone was done Shuri cleared her throat
"Alright so now if you follow Aneka, she's going to give you a tour of the Center," She said pointing at Aneka, "Thank you all for coming and have a nice day."
For some reason, the professors had the students leave group by group as if they were little kids.
Riri just rolled her eyes at that.
Once it was Riri's group turn to leave, they put their coats on a hook and walked out.
Before Riri could walk out, she was grabbed by the loops on her pants and something slipped in her pocket and whispered something in her ear, "Be ready by 7."
She let her go and walked away like nothing happened. Riri walked out the door to join the rest but reached in her pocket.
'A FASTPASS band from Disneyland,' Riri looked at it with wide eyes. Was Shuri asking her on a date or something? Riri didn't know but she did know one thing for sure, she was going to DisneyLand tonight.

Shuri was now leaving the Center and was going to the hotel to change. She had been waiting for this date for the whole day and was happy that it was finally time.
Riri and the others had left around 4:00 but she sent Aneka behind her, secretly.
Even though she knew Riri could handle her own, she knew they would go out somewhere to explore California and it didn't hurt to make sure her Princess had a little more protection.
Once she got to the hotel, she ran straight to her suitcase and started throwing clothes left and right. She had about 30 minutes to get ready before she had to go pick up Riri and she was searching for the perfect outfit.
"Woah, watch where you're throwing those clothes!" Shuri looked back to see Okoye and Ayo walking in.
"I'm trying to find an outfit," Shuri said, still throwing clothes around.
"It's just Disneyland, how hard can it be?" Shuri rolled her eyes.
