you and kazuma had been freinds for a while, but you never got invited to his home. once the two of you walked to his house you enter to a layer of smoke, looking into the living room, his older sister shizuru was lying on the floor smoking, the tv playing some mindless show. she turns her head and has some big argument with kazuma over his poor grades to which he storms off upstairs without you, leaving you standing aimlessly near the entrance.

“hey dork, you don’t gotta just stand around, if you came here hang out with kazuma then just go follow my baby brother you don’t need permission, or you could stay here with me.”

she exhaled a puff of smoke and lights a new cigarette, patting the floor mat next to her invitingly, wanting you to join.

“kazuma talks about you pretty highly, you’re a smart kid, i wish you’d knock some sense into my brother though, but enough about him, you just relax here and we can watch some tv and talk, okay?”
