"Before we go out, there is something you have to see." Obi starts and pushes me to another room. He knocks on the door and Shirayuki opens it with a broad smile.
"Good morning (Y/N)! You are so going to like this!" She says full of excitement and pushes the door open further, revealing the insides of the room. My eyes widen with surprise. Obi pushes me into the room and I'm speechless as I look around. The room has three tables full with flowers and gifts.
"W-What's all this?" I ask and I can't help but stutter.
"It's for you!" Shirayuki says with genuine happiness.
"For me?"
"Yes! Shun kind of told everyone about your presence and they felt obliged to get you something."
"But-" Agh here we go again. That attention I ran away from. I don't want people to keep thanking me or act like I'm some hero who needs special treatment. I've grown up in the peace and quiet of a small family living in the mountains, having this many people surrounding me all of a sudden is suffocating somehow.
"It wasn't just for what you've done before, but also out of worry. You were in a critical state and they wanted to support you." Shirayuki explains.
I stay silent, trying to take it all in. Shirayuki gets down to my level of height and holds my hand.
"Listen, I know you don't like to be in the middle of attention and that's also why we had to send a lot of people away who wanted to meet you, but try to get out of your shell a bit. After all, today is kind of a celebration day for you."
I smile and squeeze her hand a bit. "Alright, I'll try." I should be grateful!
"If it gets too busy just tell me, miss. I'll take you somewhere else." Obi says from behind me and I feel his hand resting on my shoulder. I nod and try to calm down my racing heart reacting at his touch.

"You look nervous." Obi says while pushing the wheelchair to the marketplace. "Don't worry I got your back." Ooh Obi, if only you knew that wasn't the only thing making me nervous..
"We're going to greet them only, right?"
"Right."
As soon as the first seller notices me and my vibrant blue hair, a wave of excitement washes over her and it seems to infect everyone else as all of their heads turn to me with a smile. As we get closer and eventually pass them they all say different kind of greetings to me, I try to keep up at first but then just stuck to smiling and waving.
At a certain moment a young man walks up to me.
"Hi, I'm Kaye, a friend of Shun and also a hairstylist. Shun asked me to take you to my hair salon, wanna come with me?" He says with a friendly tone. Short introduction, but it works. I agree to go with him and he guides us to his small cozy salon. I then let him do stuff with my hair. Obi just sits and stares at the process and I wait it out, receiving compliments he gives of my hair. It doesn't take all too long, before he gives me a mirror to check out what he did.
A simple hairstyle, my side bangs are pulled back and pinned together at the back of my head. It looks fairly simple, but it gives of a vibe of elegance. He didnt get all of my bangs so there is still some covering my ears if you look from the front and I don't know how, but he managed to make my hair look more wavy than its usual straight look.
"Looking good." Someone says while entering through the doorway. I look to see who it is, Shun. Someone else also enters, a girl.
"Where have you guys been?" Obi asks.
