Souji (walking next to Iris): Is it okay to talk about our accounts?

Iris: I don't mind. I never had a conversation with anyone in public.

Souji: So you really didn't have any friends in your school. You should be lucky I became your friend.

Iris: However didn't you say you were a lone wolf?

Souji: In high school. Anyway, the reason I want to talk about our two accounts is because of your personality.

Iris: I just wanted to be different. The me in the real world is distance from other people while my main is a character of leadership. The one who brings people together in a squad. However, my alt account is a mystery. It's mixed with different sides.

Souji: And because of that you lose your mind more in UGO.

Iris: That's right. (look at Souji) What about you?

Souji: When I started playing UGO it was during high school so my personality made him cruel at first before being a bit friendly with the low tone. While the alt account is like the new me.

Iris: So your two accounts are the old and new version of you. While the person in front of me has both sides of the two halves.

Souji: However with you. You can't say what your three versions are.

Iris: What do you mean?

Souji: I mean you in front of me is one version. While your main account is your second version and your alt is your third version.

Iris (in her mind): Different versions of different personalities.

After walking past a gaming shop Iris saw something she wanted and without notice, she stopped having her eyes glued to a prize.

(in front of the game shop)

Souji (turns to his side): Want something?

Iris (blushing while putting her hood on): No.

Souji (behind Iris smiling): Do you want that teddy?

Iris: Well...

Souji (walking in pulling Iris along after grabbing her wrist): Let's go in and see if I can win a prize for you.

Iris: Souji you don't have to.

(Sunset Street)

Iris (hugging a black cat teddy that has purple eyes but the left eye has a vertical scar, a small heart on the forehead, and a big heart on the back): You're so stubborn. Please listen to me next time but (hide her smile) thank you for the prize.

Souji: You really like cats.

Isis (look at Souji): Is that a problem?

Souji: No. It's just in college and on your main account you act like someone who's a bad girl.

Iris (shock when she stops): Me. A bad girl! That wasn't my intention.

Souji (smiling while a few steps in front of Iris): I know.

Iris (notice the time after looking at her phone): it's that late.

Souji: Want to have dinner with me?

Iris: Now it sounds like you're asking me out.

Souji: Sorry. I was just having so much fun I didn't want it to end.

Iris: Me either but there's a reason I have to be home at a specific time.

Souji: I won't ask for details but just get back safely.

Iris: I'll allow you to walk me to the bus stop.

Souji: That's nice of you.

Iris (starts walking with Souji): If it's okay can we play together on our alt?

Souji: Of course. We can actually mess around being normal players instead of being famous.

Iris: True. I never thought of it like that.

Souji: Are you going to jump on UGO?

Iris: Can you wait until Monday?

Souji: I thought you were excited to finally get back on UGO.

Iris: I am but the day after tomorrow college starts so I'll take Sunday off. (look ahead) Looks like my bus is here.

Souji: You might want to hurry.

Iris (while running off): I'll see you on Monday.

Souji (waving): Bye! (in his mind walking into a passage after Iris got on the bus) I'm happy Iris had fun.

(bus second floor)

Iris (in her mind hugging the teddy): This is so cute. (looking at the window) Today I made my first friend and this is my first ever gift. (smiling) Thank you Souji.
