Karin #191: Eyes Are the Window to the Soul
A Certain Place in the City
Player
Huh? Is that Karin?
[Fade in/out.]
Player
Wow, she's in the middle of a magazine photo shoot. That's amazing. She's so pretty.
Karin
Oh, what a coincidence.
Player
Wh-Whoa! H-Hello, Karin!
Karin
I was just about to go on break. I'd be delighted if you kept me company.
| Option 1: “It would be an honor!” |
|---|
| Player Of course! It would be an honor! Karin *Chuckle* What a strange response. |
| Option 2: “I wouldn't want to bother you.” |
| Player Well, I wouldn't want to bother you… Karin Oh, are you turning down my invitation? I don't think so. I won't allow it. |
Karin
I really didn't expect to run into you during this photo shoot.
Karin
We usually change locations several times during a shoot, so it truly is such a coincidence. It was really nice timing showing up when you did.
Player
Yeah. I saw a huge crowd, so I thought some school idols were doing an impromptu live show and stopped to take a look. I didn't expect to see you.
Karin
I'm sorry it wasn't a live show like you'd hoped.
Player
No way, I got to see something even better. You really are beautiful, Karin.
Karin
Oh my, I'm so happy to hear you say that. Thank you.
Karin
Why is your face turning red?
Player
Huh?! Th-That's just… I think it's your fault.
Karin
*Chuckle* Did I make your heart skip a beat?
Player
Ugh, yeah, you did! I mean, you looked nothing like the Karin I'm used to seeing at school or practice.
Player
You looked more mature than usual. You were all serious and dignified and lovely and cool.
Karin
Receiving such high praise from you makes me very happy. Thank you.
Karin
I'm kind of relieved, actually. If I appeared that way to you, I was probably able to charm the people on the other end of the camera lens as well.
Player
Huh?
Karin
You always look at me objectively, right?
Karin
I like hearing people's thoughts and impressions from that point of view sometimes, so it's always helpful to hear from you.
Player
I had no idea.
Karin
*Chuckle* Well, it's true. So please keep sharing your insights with me. You never have to hold anything back from me.
Player
Of course. I don't mind sharing if that's what you want! But I don't know if I can think of anything to say other than how beautiful and cool you look.
Karin
That's plenty. I can get everything else you're thinking from that as well, somehow.
Player
Really?
Karin
I think your feelings come through to me from that unwavering, passionate gaze of yours.
Karin
The eyes are like a window to the soul. Focus your gaze on me and let me know how you really feel.
