Miharu's eyes sparkled.

"Awww....how cuuuute...." she said. "He's like a dashing prince who came to your rescue~!"

Miharu giggled and then waved her hand dismissively. "Gomen, gomen. I'll stop teasing you now," she said. She smiled. "But I'm really happy to see you've made a new friend. A cute one, at that!"

Miharu stretched her arms. "I suppose I should show you the kimonos I have. Hold on a moment!"

Miharu would shuffle out of the living room for a moment and leave Atsuko alone. She'd soon come back holding a set of folded kimonos in her hands and a pair of lacquered zori hooked on her fingers.

"I was doing some thinking earlier, and I thought you'd go best with warm colors due to your hair," she said. "The colors of autumn and summer would look great on you. And they would match your eyes, too. So I have these ones. Fortunatley, warm colors never looked nice on me."

Miharu set down the kimonos on the table and raised them up one by one to silhouette Atsuko. There were three. An orange and black one, an orange one with white flowers, and an ornate coral red one.

"Let's see if the length is right, shall we? After all, I'm, well...shorter than you. Once I get the measurements right, I can lengthen the hem a bit. You'll also need some zori to pair with these. What size are your feet? Also, can you stand up for me?"

Atsuko rolled her eyes at Miharu's comment. "If I wanted Chinedu-kun in that way, I would try to date him. How hard could it be?" She said with a blush.

"Okay, Senpai!" Atsuko replied. She stood up and
smiled at her older girl. She looked at the kimonos. "So beautiful. I like the red one a lot, reminds me of Hestia's robes." She imagined herself summoning Hestia in one of the kimonos. She would look elegant and powerful.

"Um... I think my feet are size six?" She replied. Her feet weren't that big, right?

Miharu smiled. "I think the zori should be around that size," she said. "Oh, and you don't have to worry about picking. I was planning to give you each one of these anyways. Though, I'm not sure what occasions you'll use them for. I have some yukata as well if you want something for the festive times of the year."

Miharu touched her cheek and sighed dreamily. "It's so nice to be able to spoil someone with stuff like this. I never had siblings and sometimes Ren is too young--or too weird--for me to relate with. So this is a really big breather for me."

"Glad I could help fulfill your big sister desires!" Atsuko joked. It made her happy to see Miharu look so happy. Well, it made her happy if anyone was happy. But that was beside the point.

"Speaking of Ren, where is your family? I haven't met your aunt or this 'little weirdo' yet."

Miharu smiled sheepishly.

"They're at a family outing with my uncle," Miharu explained. "I stayed behind since I'm hoping Ren can feel more comfortable around her parents. My relatives divorced some time ago, see?"

Miharu smiled sheepishly as she raised the kimono against Atsuko's body to check the length and nodded once she saw it was a fit.

"My aunt seems to be patching up with my uncle though. I think things will go well." she smiled.

Miharu raised Atsuko's arms and nodded again upon seeing the sleeves were right.

"Want to try it on? You can change in my room."

Atsuko raised an eyebrow and smirked. "Why? Can't I change right here?' She joked. Of course, she didn't want to change in front of her friend. That would be awkward for everyone. She smiled as she took the kimono and entered Miharu's bedroom. Atsuko giggled when she saw the room.

"Wow! You have such a cute room, Senpai!~" She cheered loud enough for the older girl to hear. She began putting on the kimono. (YOU DON'T NEED ANY DETAILS!) And then she slipped on the zori.

But she wasn't ready to go out yet. Something didn't feel right. She realized it was her hair. It was usually braided, but Atsuko decided it was time for a change. The first year undid her braid, letting her long orange hair fall past her shoulders.

She stepped out and smiled sheepishly. "So, h-how do I look...?"

Miharu gasped in surprise.

"How pretty!" she said rushing towards Atsuko. She was quick to touch Atsuko's long bright orange hair. "Your hair's so lovely, Suko-chan! You really should wear it down more often. It's a shame to try and hide your hair in braids!"

Miharu smiled and then scratched her cheek.

"I bet you'd be all the envy at your school if you wore your hair down!" she said. "Maybe even attract the attention of a certain guy, hmm~?"

Miharu wasn't just trying to flatter her either. Atsuko's hair down made a big difference in the way she looked. Not that she wasn't cute enough wearing a braid, but she looked more relaxed with her hair loose and flowing.

Should you be judging when you wear your hair the same way everyday?

Quiet, you!

"You know, I like your hair too. Such a lovely colour, but if you keep saying things like that, I'll cut it all off and make a wig!~" Atsuko joked. But she was a little annoyed by another mention of Chinedu! They were just friends, sure he carried her out of the Ruins without a shirt on... And she joined the fishing club shortly after saving him from the Ruins.

It was the perfect way to get close to him!~ Hestia giggled.

'Hush! I don't need your input right now!'

Atsuko flipped her hair a bit and did a little spin. "So, do I look elegant?" She asked. "Imagine traversing the Ruins together dressed in kimonos! Graceful, but deadly!~"

Miharu yelped when Atsuko threatened to cut her hair.

"Eeek! Don't be cruel!" she said frantically. She breathed out. "I'd hate for you to waste such pretty kimonos in the ruins. The only reason I wear mine are because my aunt's catching onto the tears I'm placing on my clothes. I have a lot of spare old kimonos so I use them in the ruins. Kinda my trademark now, I guess? Hehe..."

Miharu smiled sheepishly. However, the thought of when she started wearing them suddenly came to her and she stiffened.

That was right, she started wearing these to the ruins when her grandmother came to Nagashima and forced her to live with her. She would escape after a series of whippings and then go to the ruins in order to relieve her stress. After that, kimonos just felt natural. Now that her godmother was here as well, she had begun wearing them again, too. But the image of her grandmother was what bothered her. She shivered slightly.

"W-well, if you're going to wear a kimono in the ruins, I"ll give you some spares," she said. "Save these for a special occasion. Also, you shouldn't wear a kimono there if you don't know how to move in one and in zori. It can be dangerous. Not that I can talk, right? Haha."

Miharu adjusted Atsuko's sash a bit.

"There. Now all you need is a hair accessory..." she murmured.

She looked into a paper bag she had placed on the table and took out a lovely red higanbana[/color] hairpin. She smiled as she swept a portion of Atsuko's hair and tucked in the pin.

"Perfect." she said smiling proudly.

"Don't worry! I probably won't be wearing them in the Ruins. I started wearing older clothes, usually the ones I paint with. My parents don't notice any tears." Atsuko replied. It was actually nice wearing her older clothes, they made her feel more comfortable in the Ruins.

Atsuko smiled again when Miharu placed the hairpin in her hair. "Do I look pretty and elegant?" She asked Miharu. It wasn't everyday that she wore a kimono.
