It was getting late and everyone had to get back to their dorms. Dai was the first to leave but, before he did, he left everyone his cell phone number in case they needed to contact him in the future. Kazuo thanked Dai and told him that he'll see him later before entering Dai's contact information into his own cell phone. It was Saito who was the next to leave and, like Dai, he also gave out his contact information. Kazuo recorded it into his phone. Before either one of them left, Kazuo gave them his number as well. Then Shinku decided to leave but didn't mention her contact information. Kazuo wanted to ask for it directly but couldn't muster the courage to. Before he could make up an excuse to ask for her number, Shinku had left. Kazuo and Gruffydd were left at the table. Kazuo asked for his number and, after getting a response, left for the dorms.

On the way, he passed by Tee-Party but didn't see anyone inside. Curious, he entered the store and walked to the counter. He could hear someone's voice coming from a backroom. The voice was quite cheerful and energetic, talking about poses or something - like for a photo shoot perhaps. Before he could leave, the owner of the store came out from the back room and caught Kazuo's attention with a boisterous hello. Kazuo turned around and said he was just looking to see if his friends were around. [color=fff200]"Oh, too bad, I thought you were a custom... Hey, you know you're a pretty handsome guy. You have this look about you that screams 'Victorian period costumes'. You'd make a great model for my catalog."[/color]

Kazuo was caught off guard by that and he was too flustered to respond. [color=fff200]"I'm Hikari by the way! Introductions aside, I need to get you in one of my new costumes!"[/color] Kazuo replied that he doesn't think it's a good idea. Hikari frowned when she heard his response; she seemed disappointed but then quickly perked back up. [color=fff200]"Oh come on, please~! It's not like you'll be doing it for free. How does ￥860 a day sound to you? At least let me show you my studio!"[/color] Reluctantly, Kazuo was pulled into the backroom. There, he was greeted by a surprising sight: Bride and Ito, dressed up for a photo shoot. Kazuo politely smiled and waved at them. [color=fff200]"Oh, so these two are your 'friends'. What a coincidence."[/color] Kazuo nodded and walked towards the two of them. He looked at their outfits and, choosing his words carefully, complimented them.

[color=fff200]"Oooo~ I'm getting a bunch of ideas already for the next shoot now that I'm working with a trio!"[/color] Hikari exclaimed as she panned around the three of them forming her hands into a camera. Kazuo politely responded that he didn't agree to work as a model. [color=fff200]"Awww, you can't deny a photographer her vision!"[/color] Hikari complained. Sighing, Kazuo said that he would think about it. [color=fff200]"Great! That's all I needed to hear! Hm, aww, darn it, it's late already... Looks like we have to wrap things up for the day. Bride, Ito, thank you for a beautiful shoot! I hope you guys come back. I have your pay right here."[/color] Hikari hands an envelope to each of them. Kazuo said that he needed to get back to school and said bye to the three of them. Before exiting the backroom, he glanced back one more time at Bride and Ito - they do look quite good in those outfits.

Before heading out to have breakfast by the cherry blossom trees, Kazuo spent a few minutes casually chatting with Dai since he caught him early in the morning. After which, the daily school routine began. As usual, Kazuo felt quite bored in class. All he could think about as of late is, understandably, his Persona and the other world the group fell into. He also gave some thought to Igor's warning about the upcoming 'calamity'. He needs to prepare for that. After classes were over, Kazuo wandered the school grounds before arriving at the baseball field. It seems they had tryouts today. Kazuo loved baseball as a kid but, by now, he is pretty rusty at it. It could be fun though. Why not? Kazuo walked over to the signup table and filled out the form to join the team. After completing the forms, he spent time talking with the other signups as well as people already on the team. Three hours soon passed by when he decided to join a quick game.
