Elena Dragunov | Warakuma Hospital Elena was honestly surprised, Alexei wasn't the kind of guy that had many friends. He had that air around him and yet, so many people had dropped by. It was a welcome surprise, what was even more heartening was, that he was a hit with the fairer sex. Elena couldn't help but giggle as she shifted in the bed to allow Kotori to sit comfortably. The new arrival seemed to be just his type, she had that physicality about her and she brought his favorite manga so she did know him better than most. [color=ed1c24][b]"Oh volume 27!"[/b][/color] said Alexei with a smile, it had been a while since he had practiced that but it didn't turn out to be sheepish or goofy. [color=ed1c24][b]"Thanks! for this. This happens to be my favorite part."[/b][/color] he said cheerfully before waving the basket of fruits in front of her. He knew Akane was comfortable around him and he need not be formal. As she asked about Elena, Elena sat up behind Kotori, who being the cultured being she was shifted effortlessly away from her line of sight. [b][color=7ea7d8]"I'm okay, I guess. Doctor Shirakawa said that it'll take a few more days for me to be fit to be relieved. So I guess, I'll be here a little while longer."[/color][/b] she said with a smile to the upperclassmen. [b][color=7ea7d8]"I'm Elena Dragunov and I guess you already know my relationship with Alexei."[/color][/b] she introduced herself, pausing for a bit before adding [b][color=7ea7d8]"thank you all for being his friends."[/color][/b] with a slight bow. It was rare for Elena to be this way but she was touched by the attention that her brother was receiving.
