Chapter 2: The Solution
"Hey Kaori, there is someone at the door for you, he looks like he is from America." Kaorin's mom said to Kaorin, who was at her computer playing games.
"Wow, Robert got here really fast," Kaorin said as she went for the door. "This is my friend Robert, he is from Upstate New York which is in America," Kaorin said as she introduced him to her mom.
Her mom said, "He has good manners, he even took his shoes off without being told."
He responded by saying "I always remove my shoes when entering a house, unless they say otherwise, or the house is messy, as it keeps the floors cleaner and makes them last longer."
"My dad will be home in a few minutes." Kaorin said. Kaorin asked what his solution was to her problem. He then showed her a pocket standard cassette recorder and a C15 tape.
Kaorin asked, "What is the tape recorder and the tape for?"
He then said, "You can use them to record your feelings toward her and play them back later, so she can know what you're true feelings are without you having to say it right then and there."
Kaorin said "Thank you for letting me use your tape recorder and tape to confess my love to Sakaki."
He then said "you're welcome."
