The morning light shone through the window in Yuuichi's bedroom. The boy opened his eyes just enough to barely see the sunlight. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. "Nn… What time is it?" The clock read 10:00am. Selphie and he would be meeting Kuhn in an hour.
"Good morning!!"
Yuuichi was greeted by the owner of the scream pouncing on him and wrapping her arms around his waist. She looked up at him and smiled the cutest smile that would just make you so happy in the morning. "Hehe! I like Yuuichi!"
He reached down and patted her on the head. "Breakfast?"
The girl nodded. "First, shower?"
Yuuichi pointed to the bathroom that was inside the bedroom. "There." Selphie went to shower while Yuuichi headed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. The refrigerator was barren, containing only some fruit and milk.
"Hm. I really need to go shopping today."
Selphie entered the kitchen, all dry and clean. She had on a turquoise T-shirt with a pink heart on it. Inside the heart HUG ME was written in red font. Yuuichi was at the table sitting next to an empty chair. For Selphie, he had a bowl of various chopped fruits out.
He patted the empty chair. "Sit, eat."
The girl sat down and ate hungrily. Once she was finished she put her bowl in the sink and bowed. "Thank you, Yuuichi."
Yuuichi smiled. "You're welcome. We go out today."
"Huh? Shop? Eat?"
"Shop and meet someone"
"Who?"
"My friend."
The group set off on their short walk to the game store called Gamez. Selphie was carrying a small bag with a shoulder strap. She walked with a slight bounce in her step like she didn't have a care in the world. Yuuichi held her hand and directed her to the small shopping center.
Selphie pointed to a sign. "Gamez!"
They entered the store, which was medium sized with games from a variety of platforms. The young girl walked ahead of Yuuichi and into the Online Games section. She went to look at the large shelf filled with many copies of The World R:2. Selphie reached out and touched the title on the game. "The… World." As she leaned closer and turned the case over to see the back, she sighed. "I can't read it."
"Hey, do you need help?"
The girl turned to see who had spoken and saw a tall man with light brown hair standing next to her. He moved closer and looked over her shoulder. "Do you like games?"
Selphie's face lit up. 'He speaks English!' She nodded in response to his question.
"Selphie?"
Yuuichi approached her and the man. "Who is this?"
"Silabus?"
"Kuhn?"
The two males stared at each other for a second then burst out laughing.
"Silabus! This is the transfer student?"
"Call me Yuuichi. And yes, this is Selphie."
"I'm Tomonari. She's really cute!"
Selphie blushed lightly at the one word she did understand, cute. Tomonari faced her and scratched his head. "Sorry I don't speak much English. What games you like?"
After rummaging through her bag a little, the girl pulled a pink Nintendo DS out.
Tomonari looked at it closer. "DS, huh?" He started to walk to another section. "Follow me."
Selphie grabbed onto the back of his shirt to keep up with Yuuichi behind her, in last. The older man led them to the Nintendo DS section. He turned around and finally noticed Selphie's shirt and pointed to it.
"What's that say?"
Selphie held out her arms and grinned. Tomonari laughed. "I like it. Very cute." He bent down and hugged her tightly. The little girl made a squeak sound as she attempted to move her arms. The man let go of her and tousled her hair. "What game looks good?"
She scanned the wall and stopped at a game with a paladin girl in a forest on the cover. Etrian Odyssey. "This RPG."
Tomonari picked up the case and looked at the back. "You want this? You like RPGs?"
The girl nodded. "Game looks fun."
Yuuichi looked at it closer. "I heard if you really like RPGs you'd enjoy that game."
The older man walked away to the front of the store, case in hand. He placed it on the counter and purchased it. Selphie and Yuuichi followed him to the front and he held the case out to Selphie. "Here, for you."
Selphie took the game, looked down at it, then looked back up. "For me?"
He smiled and nodded. "Welcome to Japan."
She threw her arms around Tomonari and hugged him as tightly as she could with her arms not even going all the way around. "Thank you very much! Tomonari is good person!"
Tomonari bent down and kissed Selphie on top of the head. "Anything for a cute girl like you."
The girl let go of him and blushed. She hid behind Yuuichi. "He makes me blush."
Yuuichi patted her on the head. "He's affectionate. Wanna head to the grocery store, now?"
The older man handed Yuuichi a piece of paper with an address on it. "Here's the hotel I'll be staying at and my room number." He pulled out a card key and handed it to Selphie. "If you want to come to my room, don't hesitate, sweetie."
Selphie blushed madly at the comment and looked back at Yuuichi. "What now?"
"Groceries, then school uniform for you."
She nodded. "Bye, Tomo-Chan!"
"Bye, Selphie." Tomonari bent down and kissed her forehead.
"Ah! Blushing! Blushing!"
Yuuichi and Selphie waved goodbye and headed out to buy the groceries.
