Hanazaki City

Hisako looks down in thought but looks up surprised when she hears his question and she nods with a grin.

"Uh huh! why you want some too?"

She asks with a grin before tilting her head again.

Yoichi looks suprised when he hears her question.

"Eh?"

He tilts his head with a soft smile while he walks to the school gate.

"Well...if it's okay with you then...yea I would like some.
You already know what your going to cook?"

Yoichi asks with a curious tone.

Hisako giggles at his surprised expression while she walks with him to the school gate and shrugs.

"Not sure. . . . what would you like for dinner?"

She asks with a curious expression while she tilts her head cutely.

Yoichi looks down in thought before he looks back at her with a warm smile.

"What about...something with rice?"

He asks with the same smile.

"But are you okay with..me coming with you?
I mean..you only met me this morning."

Yoichi asks before he chuckles.

Minako looks down in thought and nods with a happy expression.

"Something with rice.... alright thats fine!"

She says with a happy expression before turning towards the train station and continues to walk.

"Hmm? oh it's fine. . . grandma would be happy that I could bring a friend home. . ."

Hisako says happily while looks up at him.

Yoichi sighs in relief while he also walks towards the train station.

"Alright!...so...I don't know you except for your name...umm...so what are the things you like to do?"

He asks while he continues to walk towards the train station.

Hisako tilts her head at his question and she looks down in thought.

"Well.... I like.... studying I guess...."

She says with a smile before shrugging before tilting her head.

"What about you Senpai?"

Yoichi nodded when he hears what she says and a soft smile went across his face when she tilts her head and he looks down in thought.

"Well I like to...just hang out and have fun..and..do my homework.."

He chuckles before he raises his eyebrow.

"So...umm...are you dating anyone?"

Yoichi asks the same expression.

Hisako nods at what Yoichi says and grins.

"That's good..."

She says happily before reaching the station and she swipes her card before hearing his question with a surprised expression and shakes her head.

"Nope! your the first person outside of my family that actually even came close to me since I was young. . . "

Hisako explains with a shrug before waiting for him.

Yoichi nods when he hears what she said and he also swipes his card before he follows her.

"Oh..."

He stops infront of her and a suprised expression went across his face and he sighs.

"Heh...well that a person like me is the first person that even came close to you..I hope your okay with me being the first person."

Yoichi says in a happy tone.

Hisako nods happily and she steps onto the platform and looks at Yoichi.

"Of course I'm okay with it.... no one else here would have ever came close to me...."

She murmurs before smiling again.

Yoichi also steps on the platform and nods with a soft smile.

"Really?, that's...kinda weird...I mean...well you don't look scary or anything..."

a confused expression goes across his face .

"Nope not scary at all..."

He says with a grin.

Hisako shakes her head but keeps a smile.

"Well no one has red hair..... well.... atleast red hair like mine. . . and grandparents of the children I grew up with warned them I was cursed. . . and the red hair is proof of that so. . . no one wants anything to do with me. . . no classmate. . . teacher. . . not even my parent's. . ."

She says before lowering her gaze.

"The only people who actually accepted me were you and my grandma. . . "

Hisako says with a grin while she looks up at him before lowering her gaze again.

"But if you don't want anything to do with me now that you know.... it's fine. . . I atleast know no one is forcing you to be with me or anything like that. . . "

Yoichi listens to what she says with a sad expression feeling guilty for a moment.

"Because of your hair....and your cursed?...come on your not cursed...and besides that hair is...it's pretty it suits you."

He crosses his arms and slowly tilts his head.

"Hisako...I've been with you ever since this morning...and like I said I'll stick around...so...I am not going to leave."

a warm smile goes across Yoichi's face

Hisako looks confused when she see's his sad expression but shrugs.

"Who knows. . "

She murmurs averting her gaze a bit as if she is hiding something but smiles at what he says with a giggle.

"Thanks senpai!"

Hisako says with a grin while the train quickly rolls into the station and stops before opening the doors letting people in and out of the train.

"Guess we should go on. . . "

She says while she walks on and takes a seat close to the door with an unoccupied seat next to her.

Yoichi raised his eyebrow when Hisako was averting her gaze a bit as if she was hiding something but he chuckles when she thanks him and when she goes into the train he follows her and sits down next to her.

"Hey Hisako if there are any problems at school...with people that you were talking about then just come to me oka-"

Before Yoichi could finish what he was about to say his phone started to ring and he sighs while he grabs it out his pocket and flips it open and holds the phone against his ear.

"Yoichi here..what's u-"
"Aren't you having fun?, don't...forget the mission.
Do you understand Yoichi-kun?...we've been watching you and we aren't impressed."

The assassin on the phone said in a serious tone.
He was also sitting somewhere in the train.

"Hey Kisaragi!...what's up?...
What?...your calling for that of course I won't forget...that...don't worry about it...later!"

Yoichi puts the phone back in his pocket with a small smile.

"So...umm...like I was saying...just come to me if anything happens at school or if you want to talk about something that's on your mind."

Hisako looks up at Yoichi but she smiles warmly before nodding. But a surprised expression crosses her face when the phone goes off and she looks at him confused, before her eyes widen slightly as if she heard what was sad on the phone and she slowly blinks, where her eyes seem a slightly darker color and she looks around quickly with her eyes as if she was trying to get a glimpse of everyone in the car before blinking again where her eyes returned to normal and she looks up at him with a grin when he finished his conversation.

"Hai! I'll come to Senpai for everything!"

She says happily as if nothing had really happened and she looks across thetrain to the other window and she begins to hum.

Yoichi nods with a soft smile and closes his eyes halfway as if he's tired.

"That's great!"

He says happily before he looks down at the ground and sighs.

"But you know...I am glad that you still have family left.
You have someone to go back to..."

The young assassin whispers after showing a weak smile.

Hisako looks up at him surprise after hearing what he says and nods happily. But she looks at him with a worried and confused expression when hearing what he says and she pouts with worry before smiling.

"Well if Senpai every needs somewhere to go.... or someone to talk to Hisako is there.... tay?"

She says witha happy expression while tilting her head.

"Hisako promises to take care of senpai. . . "

Yoichi looks at Hisako suprised but slightly confused.

"What...heh...th-thanks..."

He whispers when he looks at her with a happy expression.

"That...would be great...I could use a friend.."

Yoichi says with the same expression before he also looks back at her.

"Eh...I guess I kinda said to much there..."

He says while he scratches the back of his head with a grin meanwhile someone in the train kept looking their way with a cold expression on his face.

Hisako grins happily at what Yoichi says but she looks surprised when he calls her a friend and she points to herself while the train stops let's people on and off before it begins to move again making the train slightly crowded.

"Huh?I'm a friend?"

She asks in surprise and confusion before tilting her head.

Yoichi looks back at her when the train stopped.

"Yea...you helped me out a lot today...and well you even shared that story with me..and you said we would help each other out..so yep..your a friend."

He says with a grin before he looks out the window when the train moved again.

Hisako looks confused wondering how she had helped him but she grins.

"Huh I see..... alright! Senpai is now Hisako's friend!"

She says with a happy expression while the train stops again and she stands up.

"here's our stop! come on!"

Hisako says happily before immediately running onto the platform with a big smileacross her face.

Yoichi chuckles before he quickly runs after her and stops standing next to her on the platform.

"Heh..you seem pretty happy."

He says when he puts his hands in his pockets.

"Oh yea...what are we going to buy first?"

Hisako nods happily at what he says before slowing down a bit when they reach the entrance to the train station and an open food market comes into view.

"Course I'm happy I have a friend! how can I not be happy?"

She asks confused before looking around after hearing his question.

"Hmm.... guess I'll start with fruits and vegitables...."

Hisako says softly as if thinking aloud before she starts walking to a stand.
