Fun fact: "In Japan, psychotherapy is usually administered by a psychiatrist or psychologist. ... But there are few psychiatrists who administer psychotherapy as a main treatment for the reasons mentioned above, and in most cases health insurance is not available."

("Hey! I'm back! Well, last week was a lot. Today I thought we'd lighten things up. I'd like to tell you about how I met Mari. She told me I could take this one because she has too much homework.

So I was on my way to my therapist for, well therapy. Hero's can have problems too. I was struggling with cool guy syndrome. No? Okay fine, I have body image issues. I know, 'You? With the speech bubble for a head? No way.' well thank you. *Ahem*

Anyway, therapists, right. I got to the waiting room and I see this cutie. Amber eyes, pointy ears. I knew instantly that I wanted to marry that girl. So I go up to her and say confidently,

'C-ca-n I-I sit-t h-here?' And she looks at me and says, 'Sure.' So I sit down and my palms are sweaty, mom's spaghetti, I just wanna go steady. So I say, 'My name is Fukidashi Manga. I'm waiting to go in. Are you also...or...'

She looks at me, my heart stops. 'Kobayashi Shun, I'm waiting for my sister.' I'm about to say something but the receptionist calls me. I wave goodbye thinking that I will never find my princess again. I spent a good portion of my time with my therapist talking about the cute girl in the lobby. He seemed fine with it anyway.

When I got out, I went to find my mother, but I got distracted when I bumped into someone. I turned to apologize, but instead, I said, 'Oh you're Shuna's sister.' She looked a bit shocked,

'How do you know?' I smiled, 'Well you have the same ears for one. But you also have the exact same eyes.' She seemed to be a bit shy, but she said, 'You must know her really well, most people wouldn't notice.'

I shook my head. 'I just met her today. Anyway, I need to get back to the lobby.' She nodded. 'Me too. Go with me? I got lost.' We set off to find our families and from then on, our families became close friends.

Wasn't that nice? Now before we move on to the sad stuff again, let me ask you. If you were dared by your friend to give them a haircut, would you?

Because I did. She wasn't even mad, even though I completely butchered it. So, if you must know. Right now, Mari has short hair. She's going to get a haircut tonight. So I'll update you when that happens, and what her hair turns out to be.)
