[ Hello, Zawame City, you have a tiny visitor in a cute pink coat and her super cute new boots all but hiding behind your enormous graperider and maybe also possibly she has a hand curled into the sleeve of his shirt ]

This is Kureshima-san's home?

[grapesofyan]

It shows. You run the hotel by yourself.

[hasaringonit]

It is not so difficult.

[grapesofyan]

And I'm grateful that you offered me a room.

[hasaringonit]

It is the duty of a hostess.

[grapesofyan]

And now it's my turn. *Waves his arm indicating the entire estate*

[hasaringonit]

[ She's wide-eyed and seems kind of excited! But she's still sticking close to his side ]

[grapesofyan]

*Will be leading! He shuts the gate once they're both in* We'll go out the city after this. Do you want anything?

[hasaringonit]

[ Shaking her head ]

I do not need anything.

[grapesofyan]

Okay. Let me know if you change your mind. *Walking passed the fountain and up to the front doors*

[hasaringonit]

[ You already brought me here I couldn't ask for anything else it's too much ]

I am content.

[grapesofyan]

*takes out the keys to unlock the door and opens it*

[hasaringonit]

[ following along! once the door's open, she's waiting for him to lead the way ]

[grapesofyan]

*You come to the foyer! It's a big open space. There's a large bouquet of flowers sitting on a table in the middle. At the end of the foyer, you can see stairs leading to both sides of the second floor. He shuts and locks the door once they're both in*

[hasaringonit]

It's like a castle.

[grapesofyan]

I guess so. *calls out* Niisan? *It's almost like it echoes*

[hasaringonit]

[ Calling out after him, but much more quiet and timidly ]

Please pardon my intrusion ....

[grapesofyan]

He might out because of work again.

[hasaringonit]

I see. It's so quiet.

[grapesofyan]

It's like this most of the time.

[hasaringonit]

It isn't lonely?

[grapesofyan]

It can be but niisan and I have been mending our relationship.

[hasaringonit]

[ Time to hold a giant knobbly hand ]

Then I am glad.

[grapesofyan]

*Gently squeezes your hand back* We're trying to be better about things.

[hasaringonit]

Kureshima-san has been trying very hard.

[grapesofyan]

It's the only thing I can do.
