[b][u]4/7 Late Afternoon - Silver Dragon Restaurant[/u][/b]

The girl Itachi called over was, without a doubt, the cutest I'd seen since I started eating there. Her pink hair felt like something out of an anime, and... Is that... lip gloss? I had all of zero complaints about the way she looked. Eventually, I noticed I was spacing out and snapped out of it. She mentioned a discount as an apology for what just happened with Ame. Makes sense, I guess, in case it hurt their image or something. [color=f26522]"Thanks for the offer. No apologies needed, though. I just hope whatever's going on with Ame settles soon."[/color] Lessee here... With ramen as cheap as it is today... Guess I'll go with that. [color=f26522]"Anyway, I'll have a bowl of Shio Ramen, please."[/color] 

[color=f26522]"You said your name's Kaori, right? Nice name, it suits you... Wait a sec..."[/color] That name sounded a bit too familiar in my head. Wasn't there some top student or someone by that name...? Don't tell me... [color=f26522]"Kaori... As in Kaori Matsushida? Aren't you the school's archery champ?"[/color] The girl had certainly earned her fair share of whispers around the school about her skills. I'd always thought she was the prim and proper type, though. Hard to believe someone like that would put on lip gloss and whatnot outside of school. [color=f26522]"This really is a small town, huh? Oh, uhm... Sorry, Senpai. Anyway, any idea what's going on with Ame? I asked Itachi, but he didn't seem to know much besides her seeming a bit off lately. What about you?"[/color]
