"Ah, no, I don't mind..." Hanako mumbled, looking at the girls and feeling a twinge of irritation. They were nearly the same size as her... and she had the advantage of a hat! The world just wasn't fair sometimes. "Um... do you want my number...?"

If she was going to run off to find Himeko then Nico might end up in trouble, right? If she was in trouble she'd almost certainly call for help, and Hanako would at least be nearby if not already back there... if she could work out how to leave some children at the shrine where it was safe.

Maybe she could come up with another washing machine excuse...
