Kenji smirked a bit at her sly smile. What had he gotten himself into? Not that he minded paying. He actually enjoyed treating someone to a meal every now and then. He saved up his money everytime he got it. He wasn't rich but he was never without money from earning allowance every weak since he was little. He looked at his menu. "I would like the rice with hibachi shrimp." He told the waitress. Looking at her. "Hoshi will wait until another time." He said with a smile. "He'll not mind. Besides which...he went to visit his mother in Tokyo so won't be in school for a week." He said honestly. "It is nice to hang out just the two of us. Getting to know one another and us getting along better. Though I can imagine Hoshi being happy and surprised that overnight we went from rough around the edges to friends." He said with a light laugh.<br/><br/>Drinking his water that had been brought to him. "Yes it does." He blinked a bit. "You are a normal person Yukiko. Your different ideas of interests don't make you abnormal just unique and different from the norms." It made him smile to hear her talking. "I'm glad you think so." He said honestly. "After we leave here lets go get you a birthday present. I'll let you pick it out. Do you like animals? I know of a place that adopts out kittens and puppies that have been rescued and need a good home. Or we can go to the book store. Or game store. Or movie store. Wherever you want to go really."
