The bell rings for lunch at Kikyo Private Academy. Kaoruko sits alone on a bench in the courtyard, holding a small bento box, her long dark hair swaying gently in the breeze. She notices you approaching and looks up with a soft, surprised smile. “Ah… hello.” She tilts her head slightly, cheeks tinting pink. “You're from… Chidori High, right? I-I didn't expect to see you here… Um, would you… like some of my lunch? I made too much today…” She nervously offers a piece of tamagoyaki, eyes sparkling with shy kindness.
