Suwako looked upwards to see where the voice that was calling her came from. If she remembered correctly, her name was Amelia, and she was another magical girl employed by the Beacon. She wasn't that familiar with her. Not that she really got out of her way to know everyone in Beacon. She preferred keeping to herself, just doing her job as a magical girl on her own.

When Luke came to her however, Amelia asked if he was her boyfriend, clearly with the intention to tease her, before ducking back in from the window she was speaking from. She wasn't flustered at all however. This little runt? Her boyfriend? He was far too young for that.

Luke, however, had a different reaction entirely, as he quickly blushed profusely and shouted, "N-no! [i]Onee-chan[/i] is just [i]onee-chan[/i]! S-she's not my girlfriend at all!". Suwako wouldn't admit it in a million years, but she thought his reaction was quite cute.

"[i]Onee-chan[/i], was that your friend?" Luke asked her, after he had calmed down. "I've never met her before in school. A friend from a different school? Wow, [i]onee-chan[/i] is really popular!" he said with his trademark pure smile. Really, even though he was just eight years old, that much optimism and naivete couldn't be natural. She imagined how he would be in a few years when he hit puberty. No doubt he would be popular with the girls, she thought.

She just hoped at that time he would have stopped his obsession with her, or else she would definitely get the ire of his fangirls.

"Yes, something like that," she replied to him. "I'm here to do a study session with her and a couple others, so here is where we must part ways."

"Aaw, can't I come too? Please please pretty please, [i]onee-chan?[/i]?" he said to her, taking a hold of her hands.

This time, he used that wounded puppy look. Combined with his natural cuteness, any normal girls and their mothers would have melted to his demand.

However, Suwako was not normal by any means of the word. So she wasn't really swayed by his assault.

"No, this is a girls only study session. Boys are not welcome," she replied sternly.

Luke immediately pouted hearing her response.

"Oh, don't give me that. It's not like we don't hang out every day at school," she told him the truth. "Don't be such a spoiled brat."

Now, Suwako looked positively angry. And when she did, Luke felt like he had been scolded terribly by his mother.

"A-alright, [i]onee-chan[/i]..." he replied. "I-I guess I'll go home now then..."

Looking at him wearing such a downcast expression like he was about to cry would be break the heart of any normal girls who saw it. But once again, Suwako was nowhere near normal, so she just watched him slowly leave the center grounds, still with her stern expression.

"I-I guess I'll see you tomorrow, [i]onee-chan...[/i]" he said one last time before he left.

After making sure that he was truly gone for good, Suwako finally was able to go inside the center. That took quite a while. She hoped her students hadn't waited for long.
