i'll feel even worse if you
send me a gift — you be
shinobu's friend and i teach
you for the scholarship
test. deal?

YOU
wait no — un-deal, i want
to be your friend too. how
about i be your's and also
shinobu's friend. and you
teach me 🤭

KANAE KOCHO
sounds like a win-win 🤭

YOU
when should we start?

KANAE KOCHO
when are you free?

YOU
i resigned recently. so i
think i will be focusing
on the scholarship until
the test finishes. and
with that being said —
i'm free anytime 😀

KANAE KOCHO
oh yeah, shinobu told
me you worked down
on the cafe near our
campus. i haven't been
able to drop by 😔

YOU
honestly, nothing really
special. maybe just me,
i'm special 😵‍💫

KANAE KOCHO
no wonder my sister
enjoys spending time
with you. i can see
why now.

and didn't you all have
a little argument lately?
shinobu was a wreck,
don't tell her i said that.

YOU
oh yeah, we got into a
lil argument, but it's all
good now — wdym by
that though?

KANAE KOCHO
she gets upset at the
smallest things, and she
got angry at a door for
closing in on her while
she was bending down
to untie her shoelaces.
it was pretty scary 😨

YOU
she did that? 😬

KANAE KOCHO
nobody in the house
spoke to her for almost
a week. she was really
upset about everything

YOU
oof, i'm so sorry. it must
have been scary — sorry
about it kanae

KANAE KOCHO
no no, i know what really
happened. and it isn't
your fault at all — I've told
her to forget everything
that happened in the past.
and she's always been a
stubborn girl, but she means
good. my sister is a good
person. don't blame yourself
for what happened, you
didn't even know me too,
i'm glad you gave shinobu
time to think about every
thing. so thank you for not
giving up on her 💖

YOU
KANAE I'M GONNA CRY,
SOMETHING GOT INTO
MY EYES AND IT'S NOT
DUST OR MY LASH

KANAE KOCHO
WHAT DO YOU MEAN 😭

YOU
MAKING PEOPLE EMOTIONAL
SHOULD BE A CRIME 😔
STOP MAKING ME CRY

KANAE KOCHO
WHY ARE YOU CRYING?

YOU
I DONT KNOW, WHY ARE
YOU YELLING AT ME?

KANAE KOCHO
BECAUSE YOU'RE YELLING
AT ME TOO

YOU
oh right, sorry. but thank
you for telling me that :)
it means a lot to me and
you just made me shed a
tear

KANAE KOCHO
wait, are you being for
real?

YOU
no . . . maybe? i don't know.

KANAE KOCHO
don't cry, i'll cry too

YOU
WAIT NO — IM NOT
CRYING. IM KIDDING

KANAE KOCHO
i know, i was kidding
too

YOU
>:(

KANAE KOCHO
i can't wait to meet you
in person — it's going to
be a lot of fun. and we
can bring the others along
too, the more the merrier

YOU
ohhh that would be great!

KANAE KOCHO
and you can bring douma
and his friends too (Name)

YOU
wait, no that's okay!

KANAE KOCHO
i insist. it's been long since
i saw douma, and i shouldn't
dwell on the past. in fact, i
was also in the wrong for
hitting him 😓

YOU
no but if you feel uncomfy,
it wouldn't be necessary

KANAE KOCHO
nope, i feel just fine! plus, i
forgot about everything and
i think i'd like to say my
apologies too. we can all
be friends, at least before
you do your scholarship
test, right?

YOU
KANAE THIS IS NOT GOOD
FOR MY HEART, IM GOING
TO CRY MYSELF TO SLEEP
TONIGHT AND YOUR NAME
