She wouldn't be here if it weren't for Nina, but there's no way she could let the woman go alone. Is it the ghosts that rattled Nina, or something else?
Something tells Sakura that she might very well find out.
Coming out of the thin mist, she spots the other woman waiting in front of the house. She waves, and does her best to smile convincingly.]
Hey there.
[She pauses in front of Nina, as if hesitant.]
You ready to do this?
[It's an invitation to back out, more than anything else.]

[But.]
[She gives the house an appraising glance before answering. And when she looks back to Sakura, her expression is much more resolute than it was a few seconds ago.]
Yes, I'm ready. Thank you for this. I think I have to go in there... it's a long story, but I feel like...
I just can't ignore this place.
[She takes a breath.]
All right, let's go.
[And she carefully begins making her way to the front door.]

She's still worried, of course. But this is why she's here, isn't it? To make sure nothing happens.
She lets Nina take the lead, follows her at a relatively close distance, and casts a surreptitious glance over her shoulder to make sure they weren't being followed. You never know.]

[She balls her hand up into a fist briefly before opening the door.]
Oh!
[Inside, it's a quaint, well-polished little place, in stark contrast to the feel it gives her, and Nina glances back at Sakura before stepping into the foyer.]
It's... new? It doesn't look like it's been out here for as long as it must have been.
[A little frown, as she tries to get her bearings. She wants to ask where Sakura traveled through the last time she was here, but...]
That music... where is it coming from?
