Sakurayashiki, Kaoru: I know they’re kids. I’ll tell them off, but they won’t listen. It’s not worth the effort. I used to be worse.

Hiromi: If you say so

Hiromi: Just checking in to see if you’re alright. I know you’re mature enough to like, not get mad at them. but Joe mentioned something about your anxiety while we were drinking

Hiromi: A slip of the tongue probably

Sakurayashiki, Kaoru: He did?

Hiromi: Yeah, sorry if you didn’t want me to know that. Its normal

Sakurayashiki, Kaoru: It’s fine.

Sakurayashiki, Kaoru: It’s not a secret, I just don’t bring it up.

Hiromi: If you say so pinky

Sakurayashiki, Kaoru: I’d rather you keep this between us.

Hiromi: So it is a secret lol

Sakurayashiki, Kaoru: The children should not butt their heads into my life outside of S. They’re children.

Hiromi: Yeah, I get it. They just like to fuck around
