"What food do you like?!" Veneziano piped up

"What food I like? Oh let's see... well actually I like different kinds of food!" Soreina replied.

"What about for breakfast!?" Veneziano asked again.

Soreina started her answer "well... for breakfast i like tea and scones... oh! And croissants too! "

"For lunch!?"

"Ah well i like noodles and sausages... i know it is a weird combination, but yeah.

"Do you like burgers!?" Alfred asked

" No i don't really... never liked them in the first place..." Soreina answered.

"What about for dinner?" Kiku wondered.

"I have to say it would be sushi to be honest..."

"What about your favourite?" Arthur asked curiously.

Soreina's eyes gleamed as she knew the very answer to this question

"I would definitely say pasta!" she announced as she remembered eating some earlier.

"Me too!" Veneziano was happy that he found another pasta lover.

Everyone was laughing and having a good time talking with their new guest. Just then, Alfred seemed to noticed the bandaid on her forehead.

"Whoa! Dudette! You have a cut on your head! Does it hurt?"

Everyone at the table turned to look at her

Soreina touched her forehead, and sure enough there was a bandaid on just as Alfred had pointed out.

"Oh no don't worry about me, I'm fine!" she announced in her cheery voice.

They group changed the subject again and Soreina was definitely laughing along too.

"Soreinaaaaaa?" Veneziano called out

She giggled at the whiny tone in his voice. "Yes what is it?"

"Do you have a boyfriend?" he asked.

"Yes i- Huh!? What did you say?" she asked a bit shocked by the question.

"Veneziano! You don't ask someone a question like that from out of the blue!" Ludwig pointed out.

" Stupido fratello!" Romano snapped at his brother.

Soreina was quite relieved that what she was about to say was not embarrassing.

"No... i don't..." feeling even more relieved that she did not have to embarrass herself by saying yes.

She swore that she could see some faces around the table light up, except for Veneziano who had the same happy face as usual.

"Um... could i just have a little walk outside?" Soreina asked as she realised how much she wanted to go outside and enjoy the sun.

The other people at the table didn't mind and soon she was off.

Soreina sat on the grass just outside the big building. She opened her bag and pulled out a small drawing book and a pencil. She started drawing a little pink flower that bloomed near her. It felt like hours of sitting on the grass until she heard someone walking towards her.

"Is it okay if I sit here? I was looking for you, you know" ... she heard the voice.

She turned to see Romano looking down at her with a slight blush on his face.

"Sure!" she replied happily.

He sat down next to her and peeked over to see what she was doing.

"Wow that is pretty amazing..." he says.

"Thank you!" she replied back.

I could not draw as well as that, and even if I tried everyone would always like my brother's drawing better. He said with a hint of sadness in his voice.

Soreina had ripped out a piece of paper from her book and handed the paper and pencil to Romano. "Aw... I wouldn't be sure of that! She reassured him with a sweet tone.

He smiled at her and took the pencil and paper from her. He looked around to see what he could draw.

"Oh! What about that bird?" she touched his hand to get his attention and pointed to a little bluebird on a branch of a bush. He saw her hand touching his hand and he blushed just a little.

Then he started drawing the little bird. Few seconds past, few minutes past, few minutes past until he had finally finished it and gave it to Soreina.

He actually thought that she would probably tell him that it wasn't good or maybe tell him that maybe his brother is better than him at this. But surprising enough, he was wrong.

"Awww! It's so cute! I like how you draw it's body as round and fluffy as possible! And the little beak is soo tiny! Like a little pointy triangle!"

She started laughing and pretty soon, he was laughing along with her.

Her laugh was the happiest sound that he ever heard, the type of laugh that he could sense that sounded true and sincere, and the type of laugh that could make anyone with her or around her smile.

Few minutes later of just gazing out into the setting sun, she stood up and left.

"We should be going in now...it's kind of late" she said.

He stood up too and followed her inside. When they were inside, she turned to say something to him, her deep turquoise eyes shining.

For some reason, he liked it when her eyes were shining. It sort of reminds him of the blue ocean sparkling in the sunset.

"Well... I've got to go back to my room to sleep, so... see you tomorrow?"

"See you tomorrow then..." he smiled.

She ran back down the hallway to where her room is. He saw the last swish of her shiny auburn hair as she went to a turn.

He was going to find his brother and say goodbye to him. But on the way of finding him, he was still thinking about her.

Why was she thinking about her? Surely he was sure that he hated everyone and everyone kept picking on him. But the last few words that she just said made him smile.

"So... see you tomorrow?" he replayed her voice in his mind.

"See you tomorrow then..." he muttered. He was still smiling even when he found his brother.

Romano saw Veneziano staring at him from afar, Veneziano had noticed that his brother was smiling.

"What are you looking at!?" Romano snapped back at him.

"Nothing!" Veneziano was a bit scared and stopped staring at Romano.
