“I didn''t know you shopped


    here, Tsukino.”


    Ronin walks over to me,


    wearing a nonchalant


    expression on his face.


    He has a basket in his hand

    “I could say the same for you.”

    at him too hard.


    He makes me feel strange.

    him that''s intimidating.


    I''m a little embarrassed to see


    him right now, especially since


    Tetsu and I are hanging out.


    “Tsukino!” Tetsuya exclaims,


    suddenly hugging me out

    Ronin looks surprised to


    see Tetsuya, wearing a


    strange look.


    “Oh, Ronin what are you


    doing here?” Tetsuya asks,


    letting me go.


    “I''m shopping….”


    As I glance around the store, I


    see that it sells a bunch of dark


    clothing, spell books, gothic


    accessories and other


    things.


    “You two look to be having fun.”


    Ronin says, still wearing a


    strange look.


    I get a hint of jealousy.


    “We are!” I laugh happily,


    looking at Tetsuya who


    smiles in agreement.
