Raphtalia was about to ask Sadeena how old she was- she wasn't sure, but then realized that she would likely not give an actual answer to that question. "I don't know how old you are- you were already an adult when I was a young girl."

"Hey- I could still pass off as your big sister, you know?" Sadeena said.

"Didn't that one kid call you 'aunty' a while back?"

"He was just rude!" Sadeena said. "Kids in Japan just have no manners!"

Raphtalia shook her head- that was definitely not true. Well, some people in Japan did have no manners, but that wasn't a general rule.

"Here, we're at your place, where's your key?" Raphtalia asked.

"Key?" Saddeena wondered. "Oh right, where is it...?" Given how little she was wearing, there couldn't be too many places it was hidden. "Here it is!"

She put it into the keyhole, but upside-down.

"That's not how you put it in," Raphtalia said.

"Did you say the same thing to your boyfriend?" Sadeena teased, winking at her. Raphtalia sighed.

"I'll do it myself," Raphtalia said.

"Is that also what you said to your boy-" Sadeena began muttering before Raphtalia stopped supporting her weight, and she sagged down to the ground.

"You're so mean, Lil' Raphy!"

"Says you!" Raphtalia said, trying to control the blush that was spreading and deepening over her face. She didn't want Sadeena to know that she had gotten to her, and turned her face, trying to hide what portion would be visible with her bangs.

She was failing though.

"Ah," Sadeena said.

"And you should really clean up your place," Raphtalia said, as she finally got the lock open, taking more time than Sadeena would have given her current mental turmoil. "It's messy!"

"Come on- it's the weekend," Sadeena said. She got up after a small amount of effort, and then found a chair for herself. "Can you make me some coffee will you?" She had her eyes closed and put a hand over her head- was she going into withdrawal already?

"Why don't you make your coffee yourself?!" Raphtalia pouted. She normally wouldn't have said something like that, but Sadeena was getting on her nerves with what she had been saying!

Sadeena lazily opened a single eye and glared at Raphtalia. But, Raphtalia refused to back down! She was not going to be bullied by Sadeena anymore!

No way was she going to be making coffee!

Sadeena, a minute later, said, "Did you also refuse to make your boyfriend coffee the morning after?"

"Sadeena!"

Fifteen minutes later, the two of them were sitting at the table, sipping the coffee that Raphtalia had made.

"So, like I was saying," Sadeena said. "How was it like?"

"You said you'd stop saying that stuff if I agreed to make coffee!" Raphtalia said.

"No, I said I'd stop teasing you- this is not teasing," Sadeena said. "I'm actuallly asking- who is the gentleman who swept Raphtalia off her feet?"

"Oh... um..."

"Ara? Unless of course, it was not a boy, but a girl whom Lil' Raphy got with?"

"No, it's not that-" Raphtalia said. "You're getting the wrong idea- we haven't gotten nearly that far yet! We just barely kissed!"

"Oh, are you sure you're not pregnant?"

"Please don't joke about that!" Raphtalia said, angrily.

"Huh, so why were you parents making such a big deal about the whole thing then?" Sadeena asked.

"Well, it's because of..." Raphtalia began telling Sadeena about Atla. "And I don't know what to do with her! She's going to end up hurting herself somehow if she keeps going down that route..."

Sadeena nodded. "That you're right, Lil' Raphy." She then took out her phone.

"What're you doing?"

"You never told me that you streamed!" Sadeena said. "Why didn't you tell me that before? Big Sis would've loved to cheer for you as one of your fans!"

"Ah," Raphtalia said. "I didn't think that you'd be interested..."

"Well, not really, not for whatever game this is," Sadeena said. "But I do want to cheer on Lil' Raphy- don't I!" She then frowned. "But is it really okay for you to have a boyfriend then?"

"Eh? What do you mean?"

"Well," Sadeena said. "I don't know if you know this- but most idols in Japan, and I'm guessing video game streamers as well who are woman are forbidden from getting into relationships. Apparently it's a part of the appeal that they are single and they lose lots of their fans if they reveal that they're dating someone."

"I... had never heard of that," Raphtalia said. "Is that really a thing?"

"Well, in other places it isn't, but in Japan, yes..." Sadeena said. "Did any of your viewers ask you if you were in a relationship?"

"Um, there were a few questions, but Mr. Naofumi said I ddin't need to reply to them," Raphtalia answered.

"Well, it's not like you're a big name yet, so I wouldn't worry about that," Sadeena said. "But did you tell this 'Mr. Naofumi' about who you are and where you're from?"

"I uh..." Raphtalia began. "I couldn't find a good time to bring it up..."

"Ara? You've been together for so long," Sadeena said.

"I know, but we weren't dating then, though I guess he's going to find out eventually anyway," Raphtalia said. "But- how do I even bring that up to him?"

"Wnat Big Sis to have a word with him?" Sadeena asked.

"No, no," Raphtalia said. "But I'll think about that later- what should I do about Atla? She won't leave him alone, and I'm also worried about her. Also, what are people going to say about Mr. Naofumi- if they see a young girl like her following him around, they'll get the wrong idea!"

Sadeena sighed. "Ah, I wish I could help you, Raphtalia. But in such a case, we can only really wait for her crush to fade away."

"I know,' Raphtalia said. "But the issue is that it's already been so long since she was a fan of his, so she should have gotten over him already."

"Ah, to be young and in love!" Sadenna said, sighing.

"So you admit you're not young anymore?" Rapthalia asked, wanting to needle Sadeena a bit more as revenge for what she had said earlier.

"No! It's just that she's really young!" Sadeena said, frowning. She then got up, wobbling a little, but then steadied herself. "Ah, I think I should take a nap. Raphtalia, maybe I'll be able to be a bit more of a help sometime later on, but for now, I feel so... sleepy..."

She then went over to the sofa, knocked over some of the stuff kept on it onto the floor, and then fell asleep.

Raphtalia sighed. How did she managed to fall asleep so quickly after downing so much coffee? She couldn't figure it out.
