Rina #418: Heart-Pounding At-Home Date!
Player
Rina, good job today! Let's go home together.
Rina
Okay.
Player
Hey Rina, is there something on your mind?
Rina
Huh?
Player
You looked a little sleepy during practice, so I wondered if you slept okay. But no worries if I'm just overthinking it.
Rina
Urgh… You saw right through me. I can't hide anything.
Rina
But it's not anything bad. Look at this.
Player
A game?
Rina
Yeah. This is a new multiplayer battle game that just came out, and I'm super into it. I stayed up late playing it without realizing it, and now I'm sleep-deprived…
Player
Ooh, got it. So that's why you're sleepy.
| Option 1: “I've absolutely been there.” |
|---|
| Player But you know, I've absolutely been there. I do that so often! Rina Really? Player Yeah. I'll start researching school idols, and then it's morning before I even notice. Rina Aha! That sounds like you. |
| Option 2: “That can happen for sure.” |
| Player That can happen for sure. You get so engrossed in something that you lose track of time. Rina I wish I could use these powers of concentration for studying for a test. Player I know. But I end up cleaning my room or something and don't make any progress at all. Rina I wish someone could explain this phenomenon. |
Player
Anyway, I'm relieved to hear it wasn't anything big. Although you need to get your sleep, you know.
Rina
I know. Sorry for making you worry.
Player
No need to apologize. So is the game that fun?
Rina
Yeah. You connect to other players online and fight people all over the world.
Rina
The top groups are always wrapped up in a fierce battle. It's dizzying how fast the rankings change, so I can't take my eyes off it.
Player
Ooh, that sounds fun! Hey, let me play the next time we hang out.
Rina
Okay, sure.
Player
So how's this Sunday sound?
Rina
Good! Where do you want to hang out?
Player
Can I come over to your house?
Rina
Got it.
Player
Aha! I'm excited for our at-home date!
Rina
At-home…date?!
Player
Hm? What's wrong, Rina?
Rina
No, nothing! Rina-chan Board says, “Heart-pounding.”
Player
Okay then, I'm gonna bring lots of snacks with me. I'm so excited!
