Huh? Oh...yeah. Forgot about that, since you never gave me an answer. So I figured you weren't interested anymore. But yeah, you can still come and work here if you want. ...Though, technically, you've kinda already *have* been working with us. You just...haven't been paid for any of it because I keep talking you into helping me do my job.
But gotta love parents and their ability to guilt-trip their children into doing things. Still trying to talk some sense into Kaasan myself about the same matter. Apparently the excuse of wishing to use my funds towards getting Namari into a good school isn't a good enough one in her mind and she insists she'll just take on extra work time to help pay for that, which is the exact opposite of what I want her doing. She works too much as it is.
I thought I did reply... Maybe I went to and got distracted... But yeah. Meant to say I'd think about it. So I did. And I'm having no luck anywhere else so I guess it couldn't hurt.
I don't know if I'm gonna try convince my parents otherwise. If I can find something I wanna do and I can get it in, then okay, yeah, I'll go... But if not, I'll just work and try find an apprenticeship or something.
Saying you'll think about it isn't the same thing as giving me an answer, Masa. And I feel mildly troubled over knowing that I was considered a last resort.
Wish things were that easy for me. I still don't know how she expects me to even get in a decent college in the first place. You know as well as I do that save for in history, I've never had very good grades. Me and academics just...don't mix well. ...Maybe she'll be satisfied with just a junior college.
... You weren't a last resort. You were the first option, really, but... I wanted to see if I could get something by myself first without turning to connections. But that failed...
Maybe I should come and talk to her and see if I can't convince her.

But even though you aren't sure what you want to study, you still have sometime to think it over. There has to be something you like?
And you owe me...

It's less something I like and more something I'm gonna be able to like for a long time. No point going to college and then getting really bored...
... Yeah, I do. You can come over whenever, you know?

I know but if you find something you're passionate about and that you can learn more about I think college wouldn't be a bad idea.
I was just kidding, I just miss you. ^_^ Haven't seen you in a while~

Yeah, true. I'll give it some more thought later... Gotta get through this year first.
Haha, yeah I know. But seriously. You can come over whenever. Mom likes you well enough and Dad knows you're Tachiban-san's little sis.
