We headed out of the clinic. I sat on the bench. Unluckily, she sat beside me.
Sora: Why are you still here? Go back to the Inn.
Shimizu: No, you go home. Don't order me around. I'll wait for my father.
Sora: That's not what I- <sigh>
《I feel like I'm dealing with a kid. I thought she was nice.》
Sora: Are you mad at me?
Shimizu: Yeah! S-sort of...
Sora: I told you I am so sorry. The door hit your nose, did it? Does it still hurt?
Shimizu: N-no... it's fine... I mean! Did you apologize to Mr. Taji?!
《Huh? What the heck is she talking about? Why should I apologize to him? I am so confused. Help.》
Shimizu: Did you?!
Sora: W-why should I?
Shimizu: You sir! You broke his wine bottles!
Sora: Oh... that.
《She's mad at me about that? Bahahaha. I guess she could be nice. But still...》
Sora: Don't worry about that... Miss Shimizu?...
Shimizu: Hmph! I ain't talkin' to you until you say sorry to Mr. Taji and replace all the wine bottles you broke.
Sora: O-okay?...
《A moment of silence. The wind blew. It... was awkward.》
...
...
...
Sora: So... uhm...
Shimizu: Hmph! Still not gonna talk to you.
《She snobbed at me. Gosh, such a pain in the ass.》
Sora: Tsk.

Shimizu's P.O.V.
Huh, so this guy works at my dad's clinic...
Oh no! Is it him? The one who dad was talking about? Sora?
Sora: Tsk.
《He stood up.》
Shimizu: Wh-where are you going?
Sora: Somewhere.
Shimizu: Where?
Sora: Just, somewhere. Don't follow me.
Shimizu: In your dreams, why would I follow you?
《Then he went off without saying anything. Gosh, I guess I was too rude at him. But was it really him? No, no, no, it can't be him.》
Ryu: Hey.
Shimizu: Gah! Where'd you come from?! Don't scare me like that!
Ryu: Ahaha... so, what did you and Sora talk about?
Shimizu: That was Sora?!
Ryu: Ahahaha, you clueless girl.
Shimizu: No way...
《Ryu gave me a smirk.》
Shimizu: What's with the smirk?
Ryu: Pfftahahaha... nothing. You're still no fun. I remember when you told dad that you were sooo excited to meet him. Yieee.
Shimizu: Go away.
Ryu: Then I ain't tellin' you where your dog is. Bye.
Shimizu: Ryu! Tell me! Where?!
Ryu: Hmm? It's a secret.
Shimizu: Then I guess you're just bluffing. You don't know where my dog is.
Ryu: I do. I saw it with my very own eyes. It even sniffed my butt. That dog still hates me.
Shimizu: Ryuuu!!! You son of a gun!
Ryu: Hah! Lol, you just insulted mom and yourself at the same time. Byeee.
《Then he ran off. That guy! Argggh. He never fails to annoy me.》

Ahahaha. My sister never fails to entertain me. That girl always hides in her nutshell. I know she's interested to Sora. Last year, dad came back home (The Big City) to take a break from his work here. He always talked about his "assistant" named Sora. He always talked about how hard-working, nice, industrious, honest and trustworhty person Sora is. I can tell that dad really likes him that he treats him like a son. I admit that I did got jealous once cuz he always talked about him. Since dad trusts and likes him so much, I have high expectations from him...
