It had taken Ava a little bit to figure out exactly how to get from where she was to the Blue Note, but in the end the buses came through. After a quick ride, a transfer, and a slightly longer ride she found herself walking up the street toward the establishment, hands tucked into her pockets and a scarf wrapped several times around her neck. It wasn't so bad during the day anymore, but night was still on the chill side.
She paused by the front door, looking up and down the sidewalk in the off chance she'd find Ramona walking toward her; when she didn't, she stuck her head inside briefly, scanning the patrons for the familiar white hair, but again saw nothing. Concerned that if she went in too far before the person she was meeting she might get singled out as Alone and then be talked at by over-solicitous patrons, she stood a few feet down from the front door and had another cigarette, mostly to keep herself occupied.
But in the end she did go in before the Summer arrived, pausing at the bar to order herself something small and simple before bee-lining to the smallest, most out of the way table available. Taking a seat, she unwrapped her scarf and waited, placing her phone on the table in case Ramona called again.
