Hat Two - Silk Top


Yaito stepped daintily from the dressing room into the hallway, her frilly red and pink gown matching the small clips in her hair.

"Lovely as always, Ayanokōji-san." Spoke Enzan formally though there was a note of teasing in his voice. As soon as he caught her attention, he performed a sweeping bow, hat off and an ornamental cane to the side.

"My, you do clean up nicely Ijuuin-san." Yaito returned with a curtsy to the boy in the slate grey suit.

The old-fashion formalities were interrupted as two more people exited the dressing room.

"Stop messing with your tie."

"But it's suffocating me, Meiru-chan!"

"You don't see me complaining."

"You're wearing a dress. Girls are use to this stuff, right Yaito-chan?"

"They're gowns, Netto-kun, and you're the one who wanted to see what a formal business dinner was like." Yaito knew full well that Netto was only interested in the food. She'd picked out a white suit for him in hope to make him conscientious of his eating manners. Meiru had been invited when everyone realized he hadn't understood that he was suppose to bring an escort.

"I didn't know it was a costume party."

"It's not." Yaito resisted rolling her eyes, though Meryu did and Enzan softly sighed. "A theme is different."

"Looks the same to me."

"Stop complaining, and put on your hat."

Yaito blinked when Netto didn't respond. He hadn't been silent the entire afternoon.

"Hey, guys?" Netto had a look of actual contemplation on his face.

"Yes?"

"If I agree to wear the tie, can I ditch the hat?"
