Flowers for Sakurai
[done in script form because it's a short scene. :P]
Inosuke: Sachiko-chan~
Sachiko: *growls* don't call me that.
Inosuke: I've ALWAYS called you that.
Sachiko: I don't care. It's still annoying. > <
Inosuke: Do you want help or not?
Sachiko: .......Yes.
Sachiko: ........................Please.
Inosuke: Okay then, Sachiko-chan.
Sachiko: *inner sigh*
Sachiko: .....so what does he like?
Inosuke: *hands cosmos* These.
Sachiko: *takes* ...What are they?
Inosuke: Cosmos.
Sachiko: *looks at them* Do they carry any sort of special meaning I should be aware of, beyond being something he likes?
Inosuke: Just trust me.
Sachiko: ... Inosuke.
Inosuke: *grins* Just go!
Sachiko: Can I get a vase for them?
Inosuke: Sure! *digs behind the counter*
Sachiko: *counting out money*
Inosuke: It's free.
Sachiko: *blinks, uncomprehending*
Inosuke: Put the money away.
Sachiko: ...Why is it free? *feeling a bit uncomfortable, and so narrows her eyes a smidgen*
Inosuke: Because it will make Sakurai happy.
Sachiko: *glances away* .... *puts the money away*
Sachiko: Thanks. *takes flowers in vase*
Inosuke: *beams*
(Left in Sakurai's hospital room: A vase of these:
and a card with "YOU OWE ME" written in Inosuke's handwriting.)
