*Sigh* How come it's gotta rain this hard? I wanted to go practice!

Bleh, I wanna go stretch my legs! I bet I could even keep up with Umi's Hellish Intensive Training right now!

Hello.

Welcome—wait, hi Eli! What brings you here?

I thought I'd drop by and buy a treat for Alisa.

You're heading back late, considering we didn't have club. Was it student council stuff?

Yes, that's exactly it.

I like to finish up whatever school council work I can on days when we don't have practice.

Wow, you're so hardworking. Let me give you a big pat on the back!

*Chuckle* You don't need to do all that.

*Giggle*

Hey, Eli! How about having a cup of tea with me while you're here?

Sorry? Aren't you in charge of the store right now? I'd get in the way.

It's fine as long as I'm here when a customer shows up. C'mon, please? I wanna chat with you!

I see. Well, I suppose I can impose on you for a little while.

Great! C'mon, sit down! Right this way!

What a passionate welcome.

Hey, we didn't have club today, remember? I've been dying to talk to everyone all day!

I get it. I feel the same way. That's part of why I dropped by, actually.

Great minds think alike! See, we're totally linked!
