Daisuke Kambe: Oh, you're here, Himiko. When did you arrive?

Himiko Toga: I actually arrived 10 minutes ago and I saw you in deep thinking, so I didn't bother to make any noise nor greet you. Sorry.

Daisuke Kambe: (Laughs) Don't be. Good morning, anyways.

Himiko Toga: Oh, good morning too. Do you mind sharing why you are in deep thinking?

Daisuke Kambe: Well, actually, I'm in dire need of money. So it troubles me that at my age, my family needs my support and yet, here I am, jobless.

Himiko Toga: Sorry to hear that, but I do believe that you'll find a job soon that is well suited to you and can help your family.

Daisuke Kambe: (Pauses) Thank you, I do hope so.

Himiko Toga: (Smiles) You see, before I joined this group, I also desperately needed money. So I did find a part-time job that was well suited to me, and to my surprise, that problem of mine was solved. Although I left the job since I'm kinda tired. Then I joined this group because I do think that I can help others boost their spirits.

Daisuke Kambe: And right now, you are doing it to me. I have come to realise that instead of wasting my time thinking about my problem, why not find a suitable job for me, right?

Himiko Toga: You are right! So what are you waiting for, get that eyes working. (Excitedly)

Daisuke Kambe: (Confused) Uh, what do you mean?

Himiko Toga: What I mean is, get that eyes working to find a job that looks suitable to you.

Daisuke Kambe: (Laughs) Yeah, right.

Himiko Toga: Since I'm free today, I do suggest that I can help you find you a job.

Daisuke Kame: What a great suggestion, thanks!

Himiko Toga: I am your friend, after all. You can always count on me.

Daisuke Kambe: Awe, thank you again. (Smile)

Himiko Toga: (Smiles) You're welcome. Where are the others, by the way.

Daisuke Kambe: No idea, nobody's here when I arrived.
