"Risa!" Mother Hikari said. "Let down your hair."
"One moment, Mother." Risa said.
"I have a big surprise." Mother Hikari said.
"Uh, I do too." Risa said.
"Oh, I bet my surprise is bigger." Mother Hikari said.
"I don't think you got it." Risa said.
"I found my parsnips. I can always make hazel nut soup for dinner, your favorite." Mother Hikari said, coming in. "Surprise!"
"Well mother, there's something I want to tell you." Risa said.
"Oh Risa, you know I hate leaving you after a fight." Mother Hikari said. "Especially when I've done absolutely nothing wrong."
"Okay, I've been thinking a lot about what you said, earlier." Risa said.
"I hope you're not still talking about the stars." Mother Hikari said.
"Before you answer, yes I'm leading up to that." Risa said.
"Because I really thought we dropped the issue, sweetheart." Mother Hikari said.
"No Mother, I'm just saying, you think I'm not strong enough to handle myself out there." Risa said.
"Oh darling, I know you're not strong enough to handle yourself out there." Mother Hikari said.
"But if you just..." Risa said.
"Risa, we're done talking about this." Mother Hikari said.
"But trust me, I..." Risa said.
"Risa." Mother Hikari said.
"...know what I'm" Risa said.
"Risa." Mother Hikari said.
"Oh, come on." Risa said.
"You have no other life, Risa. You are not leaving this tower, EVER!" Mother Hikari said. "Oh, great. Now I'm the bad guy."
"All I was gonna say, mother is that..." Risa said. "I know what I want for my
birthday, now."
"And what is that?" Mother Hikari said.
"New paint. That paint made from the white shells you once brought me." Risa said.
"Well that is a very long trip, Risa." Mother Hikari said. "Almost three day's time."
"I just thought it was a better idea than, stars." Risa said.
"You sure you'll be all right, on your own?" Mother Hikari said.
"I know I'm safe, as long as I'm here." Risa said.
"I'll be back in three days time." Mother Hikari said. "I love you very much, dear."
"I love you more." Risa said.
"I love you most." Mother Hikari said.
