POV narrator:

The week has passed, it's the weekend and Loid wants to reward Anya for getting into Eden School. He has no idea what to get her, so he thinks about it.

POV Mitsuko:

I'm sitting on the sofa, watching TV with Anya, Bondman is the name of her favorite series. When we hear the doorbell ring, Loid stand up to open the door.

? - hello ! The kid's taken?

L - you already know?

? - no info escapes me.

The stranger turns to us.

? - pleased to meet you, ms and miss! I'm Franky, Loid's friend.

Y - Nice to meet you

- good evening.

A - the tuft!

- Anya, we don't say that, it's not very nice.

He approaches the table, a bottle in hand.

F - let's celebrate! I've ordered food and brought tise!

L - (sigh)...

●●● a bit later:

I didn't drink because I'm not allowed to, but my sister and Franky did and they get drunk fast.

F - it's all because I've messed up the exam questions.

L - Shh, they'll hear you!

(?! He would have done what! He's drunk, he'll say anything).

Y - ah ? You reallly dit that ?

I look at her.

(Definitely drunk).

F - Aren't you drinking, boy?
It sucks to be sober.

L - let go of me.

He changes the subject.

F - that's great, Anya. Your dad will buy you anything you want to congratulate you.

L - Hey, I never said that!

A - I'd rather prefer we do something together!

L - Like what? As long as it's possible...

She thinks about it and points to the TV where the spy is rescuing the princess from a castle.

A - I want to do the same.

L - Do the same? Uh... what do you mean?

I see his aura light up and I have to put my hand in front of my eyes to avoid having my retina blown out by his sudden joy.

A - get rescued from a castle!

L - no, forget it.

She begins to form tears at the corners of her eyes. Franky approaches her and imitates her voice.

F - You're so mean. If it's like this, I won't go to school anymore!

L - Don't talk to her place.

Franky looks at the screen.

F - isn't that Newstone Castle? Is that why they turned it into a theme park?
It's like that in the show, and you can even book it.

He approaches Loid and whispers something inaudible from my distance.

He returns to Anya's side and pats her head.
