Almost two months have passed since I started working at Lipstick Kiss. I get the sense that Aito and I are a little closer now especially since that practice date we had a few weeks ago. I've gotten used to work there, in fact, I'm a pretty powerful asset there. I had gotten pretty used to the environment and all the boys. I'm glad Motoki is finally getting discharged from the hospital. Today is the day he's coming back, Takeomi, Etsuya and Aito are coming with me to the hospital since they're all available.
Takeomi Shiina: "I came along since I heard you were finally being discharged. But are you all better now?"
Motoki: "Of course I'm better! They kept me here longer just to be on the safe side. I passed my discharge exam with flying colours, so now I'm free at last" he says looking up at the sky and yawning wide.
"Yay! Congratulation! You still have to take it easy, though"
Etsuya Tomihara: "I'm glad to see you're feeling better. But I don't like the idea of you just plunging back into your regular routine.
Takeomi Shiina: "Yeah. And Yuzuha has gotten really good at the job anyways. Maybe you should take it easy for a few days?"
"Yeah you should definitely do that. Don't worry I'll hold up the fort at the office." I say, happy for Takeomi's support.
Motoki: "Well. I'm surprised. My little Yuzuha sweetie grew up quite a bit in my absence. "
"Hehe. You mean it? Well I do understand pretty much how everything works. I'm a pretty worthy substitute for you now"
Etsuya Tomihara: "Yeah, it's true. Yuzuha's doing really well. She's helping Kotaro with his training a lot. She's very trustworthy."
"Tomihara..."
Motoki: "Hehe. Is that so? If you say so, Etsuya, I'm sure its true" I am grateful that Tomihara and Shiina recognize my efforts. They're always there to cheer me up when things aren't going right. My uncle did a really good job when he chose the guys. The diversity of their personalities definitel works in their favour.
Motoki: "But... " my uncle's gaze moves to the side. Then he looks at Aito, who's been silent the whole time.
Hozumi Aito: "What is it?
Motoki: "Hmm.. I was just worried, I was wondering how you and Yuzuha were getting along."
"!"
Hozumi Aito: "What do you mean?" Aito asks squinting his eyes. My uncle responds with a small, amused smile.
Motoki: "Well, your personality types are the complete opposite right? Aito is as cool as a cucumber, in any situation"
Motoki: "But Yuzuha is more desperate, intense type, was worried it wouldn't be a good fit..." Ouch.. but I guess he's right
Takeomi Shiina: "Well, I wouldn't exactly call them 'friends'
Etsuya Tomihara: " But to be fair, Aito doesn't act like a friend around anyone"
Hozumi Aito: " I think I'm pretty average in the friend department"
Motoki: "Hmm? Are you sure about that, Ai-Ai?" Aito nods slightly.
Hozumi Aito: "I mean... she's kind of air-headed."
"Excuse me?!
Etsuya Tomihara: "Air-headed..."
Takeomi Shiina: "Wow, that's harsh"
