7th Persona, backdated to yesterday

 [Action 1]

[Sometime after school, Minato is on his way home...but not in the usual direction.]

[Instead, he first heads to the general store, coming out with a small paper bag. Seems he blew his part-time money on candy, like a typical teenage boy....except typical teenagers don't stop by the allyway to eat it. What's he doing?]

[Whatever it is,

[Guess who happens to live just a few houses down the street? And who just happened to conveniently be passing by on his way to .

Adachi may not have known that boy that closely, but that face looked like he had seen a ghost or some sort of equivalent. Enter Adachi the ultimate awkward mood killer.]

H-hey, it's been a while. Uhm, you okay there?

[Action]

[doudemoe]

Ah, Tohru-san. Good afternoon.

[Almost immediately, the grim expression melts back to his usual stoic look as he greets Adachi.]

[iheartcabbage]

[Hey, you ain't tricking anybody here kid. Adachi is kind of the expert of faking emotions, y'know.]

Ah, same to you. I just couldn't help but notice that, er... look on your face when you came out. Did you just get dumped or something?

[doudemoe]

[True. But you don't have years experience of linefacing like Minato does.]

Not exactly.

[iheartcabbage]

Well, care to talk about it? I mean, that's what I'm here for. ...Though I can understand if you'd rather not in public.

[doudemoe]

I don't have any money on me.

[Sorry Adachi. Therapist or not, Minato's not the type who discusses personal matters with anyone.]

[iheartcabbage]

What? N-no, I didn't mean it like that! Just, I, er... sorry. I didn't mean to come off that way if I did. But I can understand if you don't want to talk about it either.

[Sob. He just wants to help.]

[doudemoe]

[Poor guy. Minato understands he's honestly trying to help.]

It's fine. Thank you for offering.

[iheartcabbage]

Right, but if you do ever need to vent to someone, I'm always free. Don't worry about money or anything. I make enough off these drones, as weird as it seems.
