"Mmmmmm that was delicious!"
Ena yawned as she was feeling a little tired from talking and eating all night.
The king stood up. "Are you feeling drowsy, Ena? Would you like me to escort you to your carriage?"
"That would be lovely, sir." Ena patted Akito on the shoulder. "Akito. We're leaving now!"
"Not nowwwww....." Akito groaned.
"C'mon. We don't have forever. Say goodbye to your 'boyfriend' while we're at it."
Akito got flustered red.
Toya interrupted, "I-I'm afraid you really do have to leave sir- I mean, Akito."
"Fine then. Goodbye, Toya. We shall meet again soon!"
As both the Shinonome siblings walked off outside the castle, father, Toya and I waved farewell.
Wow. I guess this is it. Such an interesting pair of siblings... do they always fight like this? I can't even bare to imagine me fighting with Saki!! She's so pretty and nice, I could never. Akito seems to have formed a bond between him and Toya. I'm glad they're such great friends!

The next day.

"Son, do you mind running a little errand for me?" Father asked.
I smiled, "No problem, would you like me to run down to the market to get something?"
"Yes, could you get two extra bags of sugar? We seem to be running low."
"But father, isn't that Toya's job?"
"He's busy squealing on his bed. Oh, and he's also kicking his feet. And he's also screaming in joy. And he's also-"
"Okay, I've heard enough already. Thanks for the information, father."
"Alright here's the money. You take care."
"Thank you father, I won't disappoint you!"
I took off, leaving with a little cute tote bag Toya got for me on my 18th birthday.
Wow, I can't believe I'm already 18.
Has it been that long?

Market.

"砂糖を探して～砂糖を探して～"
There are many people around, and activity is always humming in the crowded marketplace. I could see a variety of kind sellers among the crowd who are persuading customers to purchase their goods. Loud, bustling customers in the market are attempting to bargain for lower costs. There were also shady dealers on the outskirts of town, children singing and dancing to street performers, and homeless people sleeping by the benches, feeding the last of their supplied grain to the birds nearby.
How lovely.
I was moving through the packed market while singing a short tune I had made up when I was bored. I was dressed in a long, dark robe with fine, star-patterned lines running along the bottom. I had to wear it just to avoid being recognized by anyone else in the kingdom.
