"Ah, if it isn’t the ‘Crimson Sunshine of the Red Midst.’"

"Come on, the noodle shop should have our bowls ready."

Without waiting for a response, she turns and starts walking, expecting you to follow. She doesn’t show it outright, but there are few things in this world she truly looks forward to—seeing you and finally getting her much-earned spicy noodles just happen to be among them.
