Mana wasn't unfamiliar with this enormously large shopping center, but this food... well, it was a entirely different matter.
She just didn't know why she had decided to eat at the foreign section of the food court, but someway, an Arabic food stand had piqued her interest, but she guessed that a little surprise every now and then always kept life interesting. As she tasted the masarin mejshi that she hard ordered, she had to admit that the first word that came to her mind was weird. She just didn't know how to describe the flavor of the dish, but weird this time was really good, actually.
Ayaka was in her lap, watching her intently as she ate, her solemn expression not fading for a second. She eyed the strange food with not quite curiosity, but some kind of interest. Mana regarded her with her usual cheery expression.
"Want some? It tastes great" she said.
"I'm quite intrigued of that food. Okay, I guess a bite won't hurt" the Cormon answered.
The girl stealthily rolled the food down the table, it felling just into the mouth the digimon.
"Yes, it's actually quite good, miss Mana. Your taste is exquisite, as always"
The girl just giggled at her digimon's formality, and decided to roll another bit of food.
"I already said that you don't have to be so uptight. Do you think anything interesting will happen today. It seems as if every day with you was just a new adventure".
She hadn't noticed yet that her digivice was already beeping with another nearby signal.

As she thought, she's pulled around by her mother for shopping. Honestly, she had enough clothes and everything, yet she still insisted to buy her MORE girlish clothes. Perhaps, it's because what she said that Yuuki gave Puttimon to her, but her mother automatically think they're dating and loudly declares this:
"We're going to buy more feminine clothes! Look, when you wear that girlish clothes he noticed you more, right?"
And so, even before she can explain, she got dragged around. Oh fate. Now she's forced to wear white frilly dress, topped with pink cardigan. For shoes, she have to wear the high heeled sandals, greek style with flowers on it. Honestly? While she agreed it's cute, she protested it clashes with her black cat bandanna. Quickly, to pacifies her, her mother bought her white version of the said head accessory.
...In truth, she only protested because she really dislike the super feminine clothes, but like this, she really can't say anything. And now, her mother said she'll buy a phone for her, leaving her alone in the food court...
"...My, Mistress, you looks very beautiful in that," teased Puttimon from inside her backpack which she put in front of her..
"U.ru.sai," Karin spat out.
The blond haired girl ordered some curry. She really want to eat authentic Indian curry since yesterday... Today is the perfect day for it. Let anyone else give a care; she definitely won't. Clashing? So what? She already clashes the moment she wear this clothes.
Still rather in pissed mood, Karin is oblivious that her rhodonite-white D-3 is beeping, telling her of nearby Tamer.

As Mana finished her dish, Ayaka noticed the digivice beeping.
"U-Uh, miss Mana, your digivice's beeping. What should we do?" she asked.
"Well, as you say, the most polite thing's just to introduce ourselves! Don't you think?"
"Yeah, but what if we make ourselves a nuisance?" she asked again.
"Then we'll apologize and be in our way. Duh" she said as if it were the most logical thing in the world
Even though her tamer's logic seemed somewhat flawed in her mind, the Cormon accompanied the girl until she saw a rather short lone girl sitting on a table, eating curry. She remembered seeing an identical girl (albeit with more non girlish clothes) when her brother showed her a drawing of a frowny angel thingy playing with a slimey Kyo inside a duffel bag being held by said girl. She then told her the story of that drawing so... Maybe she was Karin, that little angel thingy's tamer? She approached her faster, with an even more cheerful expression on her face.
"Hi!" she greeted "I may be wrong, but aren't you..." she seemed to be struggling with her memory "Sorry, I don't remember your surname, but your name's Karin, right? Pleased to meet you! My brother as told me a lot about you!" As Mana did that sloppy introductory speech, Ayaka made a apologetic expression and bowed as a sign of respect. Her partner's antics were indeed top notch.

Karin glanced slightly without stopping her eating. She's not in mood for talk as she's not in good mood... The girl that approached her sounds like a nuisance. Not to mention, smiling happily like that... isn't she being somehow way too familiar? Yet there's something inside her that tell this girl is rather familiar... where she ever saw her?
"Hi!" she greeted "I may be wrong, but aren't you..." she seemed to be struggling with her memory "Sorry, I don't remember your surname, but your name's Karin, right? Pleased to meet you! My brother as told me a lot about you!"
Whose sister? Duffer? Nah, she doesn't look foreigner enough, then who else...? Yuuki have no younger sister. Ryouta have younger one than this girl, so it can't be him. Koharu came to mind, but what is her sister doing in Shibuya if it's her sister? Ah really...
...On the second thought, this girl is really tall... Even taller than her who's mixed heritage... what the heck is this unfairness!?
"...Sorry, who?" she asked curtly, perhaps a bit coldly.

Not pushed back by the girl's attitude, but rather motivated by it (she recalled rather lively the anecdote in which the Karin girl made Kyo cry) the little girl just continued speaking.
"Aw, you seriously don't remember him?. Let me see..." She thought she had a pretty good idea as she left Ayaka on the table. She ruffled her hair until it seemed totally disheveled and one of her bangs covered her left eye, wore her most serious expression (that actually didn't seem to be as serious or as contemplating as Yuu's usual mood, but the resemblance really helped) and made as if she was typing.
"Hello, my name is Tsumura Yuu and I am overbearingly boring, but at least now my partner has brought a little fun to my snaily life" she tried to mimic his cellphone's robotic voice, and she would have done it... if instead of a serious and robotic voice Yuu's cellphone had a girlish robot as it's speaker.
Ayaka just wanted to bury herself somewhere. That was just uncalled for, even though she had to admit that the acting was kind of funny.
"Well, got some clues about it?" Mana finally asked, resisting her giggles at her own acting.

Puttimon inside her bag burst out laughing at the acting. It's way off, but it's one funny act. Honestly, she doesn't think Yuu like that at all, but how this girl did it, she can get virtual cookies from her. The usually serious Digimon now rolling in laughter inside the backpack. To cover her partner's boisterous laughter, Karin forced herself to laugh, blushing brightly.
Godd***it, Puttimon, what the f*** are you doing!?
Wheezing sound came from the bag, originating from the mini angel slime digimon.
"That was kind of really off at least in my opinion, but you have my thanks for entertaining me. So you're Tsumura-san's little sister... You haven't introduced yourself, by the way, young lady. I'm Puttimon, and this is Takamiya Karin, as you probably know. We're your brother's acquaintances."
"Puttimon, never do that again," Karin scolded.
"Apologies, but that was funny. Really funny."

Mana straightened her hair and smiled at the little digimon's laughter.
"Name's Mana. Her's Ayaka. And yeah, the acting was really off. Yuu's a great brother actually, but I guess that way it was just more funnier to see, don't you think? Also, Puttimon, my brother actually drew you with a frowning expression, so I wanted to see if you were that serious after all... seems you weren't"
As Mana made her introductory speech, Ayaka bowed deeply in apology to the teenage girl, having seen her blushing while maintaining her digimon's façade.
"I apologize for the inconveniences caused, Karin-san. Miss Mana is good natured girl, but her methods are not that... aesthetically pleasing. I hope you can forgive her".
"Anyway" continued Mana nonchalantly "As I said, Yuu has told me a lot about you. And I'm quite puzzled by your clothing choices. He said that the first time you met, you had similar clothes as the ones you have now, but then you changed them completely the next day. And now, you are dressed as in the first day. So, you do girly-not girly-girly every day?"
At the cheeky commentary, Ayaka just stood between the two tamers in a protective pose. Things could get ugly real fast if Mana didn't control her tongue.
"Please, Karin-san, excuse my partner's intromission. I'm sure that she didn't mean to offend you!"

"There's no reason to keep all serious when somehow you got amused," Puttimon replied, still snickering at the act.
So it's really Kyo and Yuu all over again, just reversed. Karin sighed and pulled a chair with her foot for the other girl. Impolite, yes, but she really not in mood to do anything with this kind of attire. After more or less a nod of approval for the brown haired girl, the blond finally spoke.
"Go ahead if you want."
But quickly, the girl said something about her attire. Karin expression dropped into scowl and she immediately moved the pulled chair back to its position with her leg.
"...On the second thought, nevermind. I'm not in mood for discussing about my fashion choice. If I can, I'd pick something more well suited for me."
"Oh, you hit the nerve," Puttimon snickered

Ayaka just knew it, Mana had just pissed a new person because of her words of choice and Puttimon had just confirmed that
As Mana realized that the girl didn't take jokes very well and that her attitude was just making things more hairy, she somewhat calmed down
"Oh... I'm sorry" she began to say to the blonde girl "I just find unreal that you're actually forced to wear that!" she gasped "That's just horrible, Karin-san! I can't believe that parents still do that nowadays!"
She then thought for a second before coming with what she thought was a great idea
"Well, what if we go shopping together and buy you some better looking clothes? Then I'm sure that you'll be more comfy and we'll have lots of fun! What do you say?"
As the younger girl looked at the elder one with a smile of expectation, Ayaka decided to try and cool the situation a little bit more
"Karin-san, please accept Miss Mana's apology. I'm pretty sure that she just wanted to be friends with you. She just... has a non mainstream way of doing so, but that does not mean she is bad or anything like that... Just, a little 'expressive'"

Karin sighed. At least she's much less hyper than Kyo, but still, this girl is a bit too forward for her own good. Forced and stuff is correct, yet it still somehow sounds wrong in her ears. Karin rolled her eyes when the girl offered her to go shopping together. As much as that idea sounds appealing, She cannot take that offer.
"My mother... is shopping nearby. If I just ditch her like that and buy new clothes, she would be sad. It's not a good move."
"Mistress may sound like that, but she really loves her mother. I think although she rejected her choice of clothing, in the end she still wear it because she want her to be happy.
"You're strangely talkative today, Puttimon. Are you somehow in good mood?" Karin asked icily.
"Mhm, today Mistress is a very juicy teasing subject, so I can't help myself..."
Karin rolled her eyes once more, this time in much greater displeasure.

"You do it because you want your parents to be happy?" even though those weren't the exact words she had heard, Mana couldn't but feel identified with them. That was who she was, since she had use of reason. She felt as if her legs were about to give up, quickly pulling a chair and sitting there before they did. She felt as her eyes started to well up, but did nothing about them, at least yet.
"I-I know the fe-eeling" she managed to say. "Eve-en if you have to act in a way yo-ou don't like o-or if the-ey obligue you to do stu-uff in which you're no-ot good, the mome-ent when they smile at you and hug you is what makes everything worthwhi-ile, i-isn't it?" her self-conciousness then reminded her to wipe her tears and try to smile with her usual cheery expression, even though her smile now didn't resemble the one of the outgoing carefree girl that was talking with Karin moments ago. It was much more modest, almost shy.
"O-oh, plea-ase excuse Ayaka" she said then "Eve-ery now and the-en she involuntarily expe-els that onion thi-inghy that makes you cry. Don't you, Aya-aka?"
The little Cormon took the cue, inmediately bowing as apology.
"Oh, right! I'm so sorry. I promise it won't happen again!"

Karin never expected the younger girl to cry like this... Seriously, just something so trivial like that? For Karin, to please her parents is a trivial matter, so trivial that it's not for their smile or anything like that, it's more to 'thank you for loving me', although that much is given for her if someone want to be a parent. It's awkward, really awkward. What have this girl gone through? Her hand automatically tries to reach Mana's head, but stopped midway once she said Ayaka somehow let out onion... gas...
Lies, if that happened, everyone would also get teary, her included.
Still, it's seem this girl have quite some pride, so she just simply stay quiet about it, nodding slightly.
"Oh? Karin, you didn't told me you'll meet a friend!"
A white woman who doesn't look Japanese at all suddenly approached the two. By the features, she resembles Karin a bit. Strangely, despite looking obviously foreigner, her Japanese is very natural, like someone who born and raised here.
"Ah...Oh, no, um, this is a friend's sister, we just met and all... Okaa-san, please meet Tsumura Mana. Mana, this is... Sheena Blake, my mother... Otherwise known as Takamiya Shiina."

As Ayaka grew concerned for her partner's sudden change of demeanor and questioned herself about the true depth of this girl's character, Mana berated herself mentally for going soft on a stranger's face. Luckily, she noticed as a woman somewhat resembling Karin approached, Mana’s face suddenly straightened itself and the façade of happiness and cheeriness once again took over her features. Ayaka examined the situation and instantly froze in her place. Her impression of an stuffed plushie was really good, actually, almost as she had a natural talent for acting.
“Pleased to meet you, Takamiya-obasan” she greeted the woman politely. “Yes, I’ve just met your daughter. She's a really kind and sweet girl. I asked her if she wanted to go shopping, but she told me that she was waiting for you, so I won’t make a nuisance of myself anymore and leave you both alone. It was a pleasure to meet you three! Err, I mean you two!"
Having said that, Mana stood up and picked the stiff Cormon in her arms. She was about to turn to leave but inconsciously remained there doubfully for a good three seconds.

Kind and sweet, Karin nearly choked on her water. Puttimon inside her backpack snickered once more. Kind and sweet really doesn't fit her, obviously Karin think that. If any, she's cold, aloof and very socially awkward. Sweet? She's rude! She's a rude girl that would gladly break a baby's heart into pieces!
Keep thinking that, Mistress, she's telling the truth, Puttimon thought.
When the younger girl about to leave, suddenly Karin's mother moved toward her and gently grabbed her shoulder.
"Now, now, dear, why the hurry? You're not being a nuisance to anyone. Say... this sounds a bit imposing, but can I trust it to you? You see, I'm quite an old lady..."
She's lying, Karin commented in her mind.
"So I don't really know about fashion stuffs..."
You were a model
"Plus, my husband just called. It's seem he need me to come to his office..."
PLEASE, don't tell me you want to leave me alone here!
"So would you mind helping me choose clothes for Karin? I mean, if it's not too imposing?"
f*** d***it

As the woman spoke, Mana’s features lighted up in that precise instant, although she too noticed Karin’s reaction at her mother’s words. Well, it was difficult to not to notice them, it almost seemed as if she were cursing mentally, given her face
“Oh, of course you aren’t imposing at all, Takamiya-obasan. It’ll be my pleasure helping your daughter out. You can totally count with me” she said politely at the lady. She then waited until the woman left the two alone before adopting a expression that was mix between her usual self and the instant of “weakness” she felt before Karin's mother showed up.
“If you don’t want me to go shopping with you, I’ll be on my way. I meant it when I said I didn’t want to be a nuisance, so it’s your choice, Karin-san”
As she finished the sentence, Ayaka intervened with a concerned expression.
“Miss Mana, are you okay? You’re acting really strange” she asked with concern “You shouldn’t say those things about you. A lady’s never a nuisance!”
Mana regarded her partner for a second before she started talking again.
“I’m fine, Ayaka. Don’t worry about me” she answered with a somewhat cold tone “So, what do you say, Karin-san?”
