Pic above is a little bio I made for Hana (the bio says that she's 27, but she's turning 28 right now because I made this before I even made the birthday idea. Plus, her birthday's on January 19)

Kadota's pov:

"Hey, Hana-chan! What do you like about Dota-chin?", Erika asks enthusiastically.

"Erika, don't call me that," I groan.

We've been spending some time talking about random stuff here in the café, Erika, Walker, and Hana talking among themselves about some manga, Hana teasing Saburo about Ruri, eating, drinking –not alcoholic beverages–, and it eventually led to Erika, Walker, and Saburo talking about my and Hana's relationship. 'At least this is a good enough distraction.', I sighed mentally.

"Well, Dota-chin is funny and smart. Plus, I like how quiet he is.", Hana says, leaning on my shoulder, making me turn a bit pink.

"How is Dota-chin funny?", Walker asked.

"What is that suppose to mean?", I said.

"Dota-chin is funny when he's jealous, ne~?", Hana teases.

"Oh hush, you," I say, making Hana giggle.

"EEEEEEKKKKK!!!! YOU GUYS ARE SO CUTE!!!", Erika squeals.

We spend another few hours in the café until Hana checked her watch and said it was 15:07 pm. She suggested that we go to Shinjuku to attend some festivals since she didn't like staying cooped up in a café for a long time. We took Saburo's van to ride there to Shinjuku.

~ time skip ~

23 minutes later, we arrived at Shinjuku. Saburo parked his van somewhere and we all got out to walk towards the festival ongoing a few blocks ahead. Erika was complaining how Hana should've worn a yukata, but Hana said she didn't own one and that it wasn't her style.

Hana didn't like yukatas. Actually, she didn't like dresses. She only owned that one dress to our date because she might need something decent to wear to a formal party or such. She owned a yukata before, but it didn't fit her anymore so she gave it to someone else. Personally, I think she would look cute in a yukata.

"Alright, guys, we meet back at the van at 17:45.", I say.

"Yup!", both Erika and Walker say while Saburo just nods.

"Hana, we have a surprise for you once we get back to your apartment.", I say, tucking in a loose strand of hair behind her ear as I stare at her lovingly.

"A surprise? Ne~, Dota-chin, tell me!", Hana squeals happily.

"Hana, it's a called a surprise because you're not suppose to know it until later!", I say, chuckling light at my cute girlfriend.

"Aw~, fine.", Hana pouts.

We then go separate ways, Erika, Walker, and Saburo going together, and Hana and I going together in another direction. We played some shooting, catching fish, throwing balls at cans and bottles, shooting water at targets, apple bobbing, and more. Hana had now a bag with a stuffed red dolphin, a new headband, a stuffed white beaver, a big stuffed horse, a plastic bag with apples in it, and two goldfish in a plastic bag in her hands –since she can't put them in the bag.

Hana gave me a spare bag and that's where I put all the prizes I've won inside. I won a stuffed black dog with a red collar, a new beanie, a stuffed bear, a stuffed horse like Hana, a plastic bag with apples, and two goldfish as well.

She bought some apple on a stick for us, hers chocolate covered, and mine caramel. I didn't really need to buy anything for her since I already bought her a gift for her birthday, but I then saw a nice aqua flower. I knew Hana liked the color aqua and lavender, so I picked the flower from the ground and went back to Hana.

"Hey, Dota-chin. Ne~, why did you get the poor flower from its home~?", Hana asks.

I place the flower on her hair and said, "There. You look much more prettier with that,"

"E-eh? You're so romantic, Dota-chin," Hana chuckles, then leans towards me to peck my cheek.

"Hey, what time is it?", I ask.

"Um. . . .17:40. We should better go," Hana says.

"Yeah. Shall we?", I say, grinning as I hold out my hand for the older raven woman to take.

She just chuckles and takes my hand, and we walk back together to Saburo's van hand in hand. She interwinds her fingers with mine, and I do the same. I then lean down to kiss her forehead, making her giggle.
