Ryu and Lara arrived at the Annex Ryokan, a traditional Japanese inn. As Lara stepped out of the car, her eyes widened in awe at the beautiful architecture.

"Wooo!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement.

Ryu smiled at her enthusiasm. "Our manager booked this for you," he explained.

Lara continued to explore the surroundings, her eyes darting from one corner to another. "It's beautiful! I've never seen anything like it in real life," she said, her voice filled with wonder.

Ritsuki, the owner of the inn, emerged from the building, dressed in a beautiful Japanese kimono. "Welcome, Miss Lara and Mr. Ryu," she greeted them warmly.

Lara and Ryu returned the greeting, their eyes drawn to Ritsuki's elegant attire.

Ritsuki ushered them inside, and Lara's jaw dropped at the sight of the interior. Every corner was a masterpiece of traditional Japanese design. "This place is so beautiful! I love it!" she exclaimed, her voice filled with admiration.

Ritsuki smiled. "It's good to hear that," she replied. "Excuse me, I will get your dinner, Miss Lara."

"Thanks," Lara replied, "and call me Lara."

"Fine, Lara," Ritsuki said smiling, turning to leave.

Ryu checked his watch. "Well, it's time for me to leave too," he announced.

Lara nodded, understanding. "If any problem, ask Ritsuki or call me anytime," he added, his voice filled with concern.

Lara assured him, "Hai."

Ryu turned to leave.

Lara called Ryu back.

"How's Natsu? Did he message?" she asked, her voice filled with concern.

Ryu replied, "Well, not now, but I know he will be. He's very strong. Don't worry."

Lara nodded. "Hai," she replied, trying to sound reassuring.

Ryu left.
