As the two girls left the small rented flat, Ena immediately grasped Mizuki's hand in order not to lose her. Her hand was soft and it was nice touching her skin, since it felt warm. Both of the girls blushed.
-You know...I don't want you to...get lost...and all. - Ena said, while trying to hide her red face. Then she coughed, and continued. - We'll take the train from the subway- that's something which helps you go from one place to another for a pretty short amount of time! The subway is close, we'll be there in less than 5 minutes. Also I think your dress suits you...
- Thank you, Ena!! - Mizuki said, trying not to look embarrassed. 
   They took the train and a conversation between the two girls began.
-So, you all have a music group?
-Yes, we do. I draw, Mafuyu writes the lyrics and Kanade composes the music. 
- Can I participate? I'm pretty good at composing traditional Japanese music and I can help with lyrics! I can sing too and well, try making outfits.
-I think you should discover our world first...I mean you barely know any different types of clothes outside of traditional Japanese ones and knight armour. - Ena teased the pink-haired girl.
-Eh, Ena, that's quite rude!! I read fashion magazines before going out! By the way, where are we going exactly?
-I want us to go a cafe with some very good ice cream, this is like - hmm, how to describe it...do you remember the cream on the cheesecake? Well, imagine it colder, smoother and with a slightly different taste. 
-Ohh, awesome!! I despise hot foods...I needed this, honestly. Then what are we doing?
- You seem interested in fashion. We can go shopping!! And we shouldn't make Kanade and Mafuyu wait, since I usually cook dinner, though Kanade helps often. By the way, Mizuki, I hope this isn't a weird question...but aren't you a girl? How are you a knight?
   The sparkles in Mizuki's bright pink eyes disappeared, and a frown appeared on their face. Their smile, so light-hearted, so heart-warming, suddenly disappeared. Her eyes started watering while looking directly at the other girl. She didn't know what to say or react. Mizuki just looked at the space in front of her, their eyes filled with emptiness, wrath and most of all, sorrow. 
-That's really none of your business. - Mizuki suddenly quietly growled at Ena. Her voice deepened, it was harsh and didn't cut only the air, but also the words from the brunette, sitting in front of her. She didn't realise Mizuki would take the question so seriously. Ena was started by the sudden change of pace by Mizuki's side. She didn't have any words.
-Mizuki...are you ok...- Ena really sounded worried. - I'm sorry if I offended you or anything, I was just asking.
-Ahh, sorry, sorry...- Mizuki returned to reality. Her voice was back to normal and she looked somewhat happy again. - Yeah, it's nothing, don't you worry. AHH, WE ARRIVED, IM SO EXCITED TO TRY THIS ICE CREAM.
- Hey, wait for me!!
   Ena grabbed on Mizuki' hand. - YOU DONT EVEN KNOW WHERE YOU SHOULD GO. 
   Ena started leading her and they quickly came to the cafe, laughing and tired from the running. Even Mizuki's eyes started watering from all the laughter.
-So, Mizuki, we have a few different flavours. Would you describe yourself as having a "sweet tooth"?
 Mizuki nodded.
-Great!! We can have a chocolate and strawberry flavoured for both!!
   Ena ordered to the waitress and went to wash her hands. The two girls started talking and laughing again. They shared their interests in music, dancing and Mizuki told Ena one or two facts about Japanese traditional clothing and style until their order finally came. Mizuki gulped.
-Ah, it looks strange...- worried mizuki said.
-Oh, don't you worry. - Ena took the spoon, put some small piece of ice cream. - Here, here Mizuki~
- STOP TEASING ME...- Mizuki turned red.
-There, there, Mizuki, didn't you say this looks strange? Open your mouth.
   She put it in Mizuki's mouth and her whole face turned red. It was hard acting confident when you're feeding your crush, after all. Mizuki munched on it a little and gulped it. 
- Wow, that's amazing!! Let me feed you now, Ena.>:]
-EHH, NO, I WAS JUST ENCOURAGING YOU!! GET THAT SPOON OUT OF MY FACE.
   And Mizuki giggled. Both of them finally started eating the ice cream normally. After two hours, they both left the cafe and went to the nearby mall.
-This is gigantic...what is it exactly?
-It's a mall. There are different shops. 
- You know, outside of those technology stuff, this present isn't much different than my present!!
    The two girls started walking around. Mizuki immediately fell in love with a shop, selling cute clothes and a sewing shop. First, she tried many new dresses, skirts and beads, and then she styled Ena.
-You know, I'm supposed to style you, not the opposite...you're the one who doesn't know shit about modern times...
- Oh, now, now, Ena, don't be a meanie~ Cuss words are very bad~!! I innately understand fashion!!
   They picked some clothes and in the end the bill was, well, quite high. 
- Also, Mizuki, shouldn't you go to an adult high school or something?
- Errr...do I really have to?
-To get a proper job, yes.
- I mean...I speak Japanese well and I do know how to write. But I guess, now, I have to know more than just that huh...
-It's ok, just. We can find your current-left family!! 
-WH, THATS AWESOME!!
   They both continued shopping, talking, smiling and laughing, as their love for each other deepened  even more than before.
