(Oh! Shioriko's already here! I gotta hurry.)

Perhaps this really doesn't suit me.

Maybe I should head home and…

Shioriko! Sorry I'm late!

Eek!

Oh. It's just you. It's okay, you're not late at all. There's no need to apologize.

Sorry. Did I scare you?

There's no need for concern about that either. I was just thinking about something trivial.

Is it really trivial? Didn't you mention running home? Did you forget something? If you did, you should go back and get it before we head out.

You heard me?!

Um. I haven't forgotten anything. Really, it's quite all right.

Okay, if you say so… But we made plans to hang out all day today, so wouldn't it be better for you to take care of what's on your mind first?

Well, about that. I have plans to spend the whole day with you, yet…

Yet?

Um… Do I look odd in this outfit?

I've been racking my brains for the past few days over what to wear today, and I haven't found the right answer.

You don't look odd at all! It really suits you!

Are you sure?

I ruminated about it so much that I can't even tell anymore.

You won't mind being seen with me? Is it okay if I'm next to you?

Thank goodness, you finally smiled.

Huh?

It looks like nothing is troubling you anymore, so let's enjoy ourselves today with smiles on our faces. There are so many places I want to show you.

I think I'll have a smile on my face wherever I go, as long as I'm with you.

I'm looking forward to today.

Being able to hang out with you makes me so happy!
