Akari's eyes sparkle in awe at the next sight where Gojo Satoru has taken her. She seen ancient temples, and a variety of restaurants, markets snd shops for them to explore on this sunny-breezy afternoon. Like any small child, her heart pounded with excitement of what's more out there in Japan that she hasn't seen yet. Although she didn't want to be ridiculed from the white-haired male, she did her best to not show her enthusiasm, but her noticable red cheeks under the bask sun made it obvious.

He doesn't say anything at all to tease her yet; he only speaks to her about the history of Kyoto he has been telling along their rendezvous. Her hands are over chest as she stood right by his side and her lashes flutter from time to time as if she is taking snapshots of everything and burning it into her memory. Satoru could tell from the way her mauve irises pearl to a different color from a soft blue to a hue rosé on how captivated she is every single time on the little things. Cute.

But her lips...

They sightly part with genuine curiousity when he has taken her to an historic castle and he would just watch her pretty face without her even knowing. When she looked up at him, he held usual a smug smile across that made her scowl.

Foreign languages come across her young ears when foreigners pass by to make her understand this place is also visited from tourists outside the country. They even came across a few low-level too curses which they decided to ignore. Eventually they're looking for a place to settle down from all that sightseeing.

Right now, they're strolling at a park.

"So how do you like the city so far?" Satoru asked, scooping his chocolate-vanilla-ice-cream, filled with whip cream, sprinkles and cherries from a large size cup he had ordered from a frozen parlor. Akari blinks demurely as she held her small-size on her hands. She stares at it for awhile, but scoops up the strawberry flavor with the spoon to her mouth.

The brunette gently jumps in wide eyed. She recieved a fluttery thrill in her stomach and tastebuds of a bite she has never tried out before. Her adorable pinchy cheeks blush that she is happy.

"Its taste good right?"

"HMPH!?" Akari jolts to only realize who she is with, so she hides away her embarrassed face with the plastic spoon still inside her mouth. She takes it out and replied, "Y-yes...it-it is."

Satoru laughs, "Glad we could make here in time with the sun still up!"

The girl slowly began to peek at him to return back to her normal posture as she ate her ice-cream. "Thank you for showing me around here and telling me the history of this city." she said in low voice.

"Of course!" he chirply exclaims, "I decided to bring here because this is city where your ancestor died."

Akari spun her head towards him with bewilderment, "You brought me here for that reason only?"

"No~" Satoru chimes, "I thought about a change of environment for you, a place you have never been to. Thats why we're here."

"I see." the petite girl veers to side. "For your information, I know my ancestor committed seppuku in Honnōji Temple...he died just like the white phoenix from its fire, but rises from the ashes." she mutters the last sentence, which the Gojo's prodigy heard.
