Mai: -is looking through the millions of profiles that "match" hers on the Yahoo! Personal Ads- This is boring. -sighs- How come a beautiful girl like me can't get a decent guy?

Seto: Wonder what this could be? -opens e-mail, & reads it-
Wow, she saw my ad already? -reads some more- She wants to meet me?! This is great! -reads through the rest of it- She wants it to be casual, eh? I'll tell her I'll meet her at the Food Court in the mall, since she said she likes to shop. -types- I'll be in the Sakura Mall Food Court at noon today. We''l have lunch. -sends message-
