Chapter seven: Love Gift

     Noiz-sama awoke with a feeling to buy Rob a gift. It was really strange. They had only been together for three weeks and she wanted to buy him a gift already. No matter. If she wanted to give Rob a gift, then so be it! And pretty convenient too, because today she was on her break from Thomas Crown. But what could she get him? Noiz pondered this as she took a shower. It was a toss-up. She never knew getting someone a gift was so hard. Noiz-sama was tore between a motorbike and a cell phone. Both were great gifts. It was a real toss up.

     Noiz-sama was still thinking when she got out of the shower. “Which would I like?” she thought. This was difficult too. Both were great gifts to her. Damn, this was so hard! Men were difficult.

     Finally, Noiz-sama reached a decision by breakfast. She would get Rob a cell phone and program her number in it. She would do the same with hers. There was only one place to do so. Noizchild went to Arashi Bomb at ten o’clock. Arashi Bomb was the grandfather of all tech shops. One could find anything there. Noiz trusted Arashi Bomb with her soul and she was their best customer.

     “Ohayoo!” the female clerk chirped.

     “Ohayoo!” Noiz-sama called back. The clerk knew her very well. In fact, she was a fan of Noiz’s.

     “What can I get you today?” the clerk asked. Noiz-sama smiled.

     “I would like to see your cell phones,” she answered. “It’s a gift for someone.” The clerk’s eyes lit up.

     “You mean...” she began.

     “Yes!” the writer said. “I have a boyfriend.” The clerk became excited.

     “Wonderful!” she chirped. “I want the best.” Noiz-sama went on.

     “Right away!” the clerk called. Then, she went to the back. The clerk came back with five ranks of cell phones. Noizchild’s eyes were big with shock.

     “Wow,” she said when she found the words. The clerk just grinned.

     “Only the best.” she said.

     “I see...” Noiz-sama breathed out. There must have been millions of models. They were all top-of-the-line.

     “Want to know the features?” the clerk asked. Noiz-sama nodded in amazement. The clerk grinned.

     “Of course you do!” she chimed in.

     She picked up a silver flip-phone. “This is Neo-2167,” she began. “Water proof, built-in camera, has basics necessities of a phone, internet, and a map of Tokyo.” Noiz liked it but the color was bland. The clerk saw her idol’s expression.

     “Okay,” she spoke up. “Next one.”

     “Right.” Noiz said. The clerk was ready.

     The clerk showed Noizchild all of the phones. Some were too girly looking. Others looked dull. Arashi Bomb seemed to let her down today. But then, hope changed. It was an aqua-colored phone. The model was similar to hers only more advanced. Instantly, Noiz-sama had to have it.

     “Hey,” she interrupted. “What is that one?” The clerk turned to the aqua-colored phone.

     “Oh, glad you asked.” she said. Then she picked up the model.

     “Meet Orion 2016,” the fan explained. “The Orion 2015's little brother. It has high-speed color internet, arcade-full of the latest games, latest ringtones, the best features from Orion 2015, and a map of Japan.” Noizchild was grinning from ear to ear.

     “Perfect! I’ll take it!” she announced in pride. The clerk glowed as she grinned brightly.

     “Excellent choice.” she replied. “I have always loved your tastes.” Noiz just smiled.

     Soon, Noizchild had her money ready. Once the contract was signed, Rob soon had a new cell phone. Noiz had never felt better.

     Once outside, Noizchild took out the Orion 2016 and turned it on. The screen instantly lit up. “Success!” Noiz thought. Then, she began to test the features. Once those were green, the kitty pulled out her white and blue Orion 2015. She cut it on and scrolled through her list of numbers. After she found her home and cell number, Noiz-sama programmed them into the Orion 2016.

     “Perfect!” she said when she had finished. Then, Noiz-sama cut both phones off and put them away. She had Rob’s present. Now to find her beau.

     Finding her love wasn’t hard so far. Rob was in school right now. Noiz dug into her memory. He attended Tokyo High. School didn’t dismiss until four and it was now noon. Damn it! What to do for the time being? The answer came quickly. Noizchild went down to Ninja Ryo Motorbike Dealer. This was a college boy’s haven. Every single model from all over the world was here. Rob would be thrilled to have one!

     Noiz-sama looked around the lot. It was a of engine-powered toys. It had to simple yet college-boy worthy. She wanted him to be proud of his new gifts.

     “Excuse me, san.” a voice spoke up. Noiz turned quickly. A salesman stood two inches from her. He looked like a tough rocker guy. His tattoo and piercing ate his buff body. Noiz-sama felt nervous around this guy.

     “Yes?” she asked. “You looked like you needed some assistance. Let me help you out.” the salesman began. Before she could answer, the man grabbed her by wrist and led her around the lot. Noiz-sama felt trapped.

     “Uh... yeah...” she mumbled. *Sweat drop on Noizchild’s head*

     The salesman led his customer around the whole lot. He was going too fast for Noiz. She finally had to set him straight and then business could begin. Noiz-sama’s eyes finally fell upon a delicious prize. It was a black and grey motorbike with a side-car. It was simple yet college boy worthy. She knew right then, she had to have it!

     “Hey san,” the kitty-woman spoke up. The salesman looked up.

     “Hm?” he asked eagerly.

     “What model is this one?” the writer asked. The salesman’s eyes grew big.

     “That san is Gunsnipe.” he explained. “Best one on the lot.” He rambled on about its great features. The speed went very fast. This was the latest model of Sniper. The details didn’t need to be spoken. Noiz-sama already made up her mind.

     “I’ll take it!” she exclaimed. The salesman smiled with glee.

     “Sure thing, sama!” he exclaimed. In under five minutes, Rob now had a cell phone and a motorbike.

     The time was now one eighteen. Time to get a bite to eat. Noiz-sama headed to her favorite café.

     After lunch, it was time to roll. Noizchild walked straight to Tokyo High School and waited at the gate. She could hardly wait to see the look on her beau’s face. She smiled to herself. “He’s going to love his gifts!” the kitty girl thought. She wished time would fly by fast.

     Soon, four o’clock came and the gates instantly opened. Students were rushing out quickly. Noiz-sama looked for her man. At last, she saw him walking alone. Noizchild’s heart leapt up instantly. “Here he comes!” she thought. Noiz waved her arm in the air. Rob looked up and saw his girl waving him down. The kitty boy grew excited. He rushed to his lover eagerly. Noiz-sama grew excited. “He’s here!” she thought in joy. Rob made it to his girlfriend.

     “Hey,” he said. “What’s up?” Noizchild kept smiling.

     “I’ve got something for you.” she replied. Then, she pulled out the red cell phone bag and presented it to her love. Rob took it with big eyes and opened it. His shock sky-rocketed when he saw the Orion 2016. He didn’t know what to say.

     “Turn it on.” Noizchild spoke up. Rob nodded and did so. He surfed through the features for a minute. Then he came to the address bank and found his sweetheart’s numbers already programmed in with her picture beside them. He really didn’t know what to say.

     “It’s on my bill as well.” Noiz-sama said bravely. Rob rushed forward and hugged her tightly. Noizchild kept smiling.

     “You are very welcome!” she called. Then, her love let go of her.

     Noizchild waited a few seconds for Rob to clam down. Once he did so, she said again, “I have something else for you too.” Her lover’s eyes grew big again.

     “Really?” Rob managed to ask. His girl nodded sweetly. “Follow me.” she chirped. Rob did so in silent shock.

     Noiz-sama led him around to the Gunsnipe. Rob was really blown away now! He looked like a kid in an amusement park.

     “Well,” Noiz-sama said. “What do you think?”

     “WOW!!!” Rob screamed out at last. Noiz smiled brightly.

     “I knew you would like it.” she responded. Rob turned to her in joy.

     “Want to ride?” he asked at last. Noiz’s eyes lit up instantly.

     “Gladly!” she breathed out. The couple spent the rest of the day riding around the city together.
