Purpose
"Why do you think we're here?"
Risa Harada blinked. Looking up at the colorful sky, she replied, "Umm... because we're walking home from school after clean-up duty?"
"No, no. I mean, why do you think we're here, breathing, living?" Satoshi Hiwatari frowned. "Why are we here?"
Risa wasn't sure why Satoshi was being so openly pensive, especially around her, but she wanted to make him feel better. She never did like it when he was upset. "Well... I guess to meet each other."
"... What?"
"To meet each other!" Risa said, trying to make sense. "To create friendships and make a difference in someone's life. I mean... I believe that it's important to impact at least one person while being alive, don't you? I think everyone thinks that, and it ends up being a whole cycle-type thing... you know?"
"Yes... I suppose so."
Risa paused and smiled, bumping gently into his side. "Plus I need a strong guy like you to help me lift the dirty water and pour it into the sink after I've mopped."
She wasn't sure if it was a reflection of sunlight or not, but she could have sworn that she saw Satoshi smile.
