One could say that day wasn't being all that bad afterall. They arrived safely and happily at Hachiko Square, their hands holding tight, if Charles got his plea accepted, despite all the weird things that affected that morning, such as water gallons, crazy fans, encounter with Tatsuya, cloth choosing...Charles's mother having shown, despite others being unaware of it as far as Charles knew.
But there it was. The place where Charles and Mana met each other. A simple café, a modest store where Charles had stopped to rest before going into a dangerous journey into the digital world to find his spirits, and Mana sat in front of him, fresh from school. Charles had fled to avoid hurting her or anyone else, but she followed him and convinced him to allow her to help. And now, they were boyfriend and girlfriend, and two more of Charles's spirits were hunted down, two more to go, if Charles was correct to assume Splintermon would be right after Nightdramon.
They arrived at the café, and Charles pulled Mana a chair like he did on the day they met, signlaing her to sit down in there. He then called a waiter. This was their first date, and Charles had something on the back of his mind at the moment. The day they met, Mana had missed on a shake of some kind she really seemed to enjoy.
"What was the name of that shake you were drinking when we met Mana?" Charles asked, trying to recall it himself.
After the waiter left with a bow, Charles sat down himself, smiling kindly at Mana. There was another matter pending.
"So Mana, I believe I promissed we'd talk about our families when we git here, right? So, hum...ladies first, I think." Charles stated, hopefull she'd change the topic mid-way, this way avoiding having Xharles talk of his family and not seem like he was trying to avoid the question or lying to Mana. He couldn't afford that, he not only was Mana's boyfriend, she was all he could ever hope to get...and likely more.

Mana and Charles walked towards the same café to where they met. It was a curious development, and one that Mana hasn't anticipated. She didn't know how she felt about it, though. It was as if Charles clinged to his past, but didn't want to tell her about her parents? Almost as if... she didn't trust her? Sadness invaded her heart as they entered the place, but she put a brave face and even gave him a small smile at him when he pulled a chair for her to sit.
"Uh... It was a peach smoothie, you know, nothing really special as I like most fruit shakes, but... my parents?" she placed the index finger of her right hand on her chin on a pensive manner "Okay, let me see... well, my father's name is Tsumura Takeshi, and my mother's Watanabe Masako, I also have an older brother named Yuu, but he's currently studying abroad. Both my parents are college teachers that teach mostly biology-related asignatures, but while mom teaches the ones related to botany and such, father teachs acuatic biology or enviromental conservation. The two of them are rather strict on what they want, and what they want is usually no more and no less than academic excellency, but someway they are already satisfied with my current performance, despite me being 'only' the sixth best student of my year. Their love is rough, but I love them anyway. So... what do you thought of my friends? Ryoko-sama and Karin-nee are really cool, don't you think?".
She wouldn't force this topic on him if he didn't want to, so she decided that it'd be better if she just changed it to something that was important for her too: her friends.

Charles was a bit disappointed that the shake Mana seemed to resented missing was not really all that special. She also didn't quite that impressed by the chosen location for this next part of their date, which made him even more disappointed. He expected the place where they met to have a romantic feel to it, given they were boyfriend and girlfriend. Yet he couldn't stop now. He keep taking this route for better or the worse (hopefully the better).
As the waiter left to get Mana her smoothie, Charles sat down with her. Mana began giving Charles a theorycall introduction to her family, to which he listened carefully.
Then Mana asked what he thought of her friends.
"Of course they are. Ryoko gave us a live show, with as much risk as the one we witnessed right? What more can one ask of a friend, but to take that kind of chances for you? And Karin...she's great too. She tries to help and does the best she can at it." Charles commented, happy about the route the conversation had taken."And Tatsuya, well, I had met him before. I'd introduce you to some friends of my own, but hum..." Charles decided to keep himself from finishing that sentence, as apart from Mana, her friends and possibly Tatsuya, Charles was quite lacking of friends "Anyway Mana, tell me how didyou and Ayaka meet?"
He was hoping the sequence of detours would be able to manage his way out of talking about his parents. Distracted, he put the cloak from Nightspellmon upon another chair, away from his sight or Mana's.

Mana gave him a small smile after Charles answer about her friends. She was especially worried about how she'd see Karin, but... if she was honest, it was kinda expected. His next question was a rather... interesting one. She remembered the day she had met Ayaka as if it were yesterday. That day was one of the most important ones in her life, after all. "Ayaka and me? Well, the day after I met my brother's partner, Kyo. It was... after a volleyball practice. While I was exiting the school, I found her egg, and because what onii-san said, I hatched it almost instantly. She was a lot more uptight when she was recently born, though. But now, she has calmed down a lot recently, you know. We've planned to travel to the Dark Area on these days days to find a little bit more about her past. With any luck, that'll make me and her understand a little more about her" she paused for a second, measuring her words about the next thing she was about to say "I know it'll sound weird, but we plan to do this by ourselves only. Ayaka doesn't trust anyone but me to be on this journey, and I don't want to force her to do something she doesn't want to" after saying that, she clapped her hands once, trying to make a cheerful face to him "But anyway! Now that we're on a café, what's your favorite drink?".

Charles looked at Mana, waiting on what she might be thinking. Her mind was a complete mystery to him, just something he couldn't grasp beyond the fact that she seemed to be happy. What could she be thinking?
Mana told him about the way she met Ayaka, causing Charles to remember the day he met his first spirit, Steamdramon. In that day he had met his only friend from the dark area...and murdered him. Even after all the time that passed since, it still hurt to even think of that day. Yet, Charles was snapped out of his memories when Mana stated her intention to go to the dark area with Ayaka alone. This of course worried Charles. What if she got hurt?
Charles pondered upon what answer to give Mana. If he said she should go, she might get hurt or think that hr didn't care if she did get hurt and that Charles just wanted her away from him. Yet if he said no, she wouldn't listen, she'd go anyway and probably think that he simply didn't trust her. Finnaly, Charles made his decision.
"Ok, if you want you can go. Not that I could stop you anyway. I trust Ayaka can protect you, but be carefull anyway, I'd hate to have raw data for a girlfriend." He told Mana, the last part being said in a joking tone. "And make sure to remember to come back, will you?"
Then, Charles recalled the day he found out Mana had a crush on him. What an embarrassing day that was for both of them, yet something really important came from the finding. Still, one thing was said in that day, one thing that been hidden in Charles's mind and had now come out to torment him: Mana had question his trusting of her. Charles imagined Nightspellmon laugthing at him for his stupid mistake. No, he wouldn't let, he wouldn't just loose Mana to something like that.
So instead of answering her question on his favorite drink, Charles attempted to grab her hand and look into her eyes.
"Mana, I wasn't actually planning on telling you this, because it still pains me to speak of it, but...remember when I tried to hide behind you and afterwards behind that set of jackets this morning? Well I was hiding from...my mom. This was the first time I saw any of my parents in over two months, as I'm still afraid of what my spirits might do to them. I mean, they don't any digimon partner, so how could they ever defend themselves against things like Chaoskimeramon? I'm sorry I didn't tell you this earlier and I hope you can forgive me for it." Charles told Mana.
Around that point the waiter arrived and out Mana's smoothie on the table, bowing before leaving. The man entered the kitchen with his red napkin over his arm, while Charles just kept his eyed in Mana, hoping he didn't screw things between them.

Mana nodded at his advice to her to take care. She knew she would have it, but she expected a little more worriness rather 'don't return as raw data'. Those definitely weren't her types of jokes, as she was definitely squeamish; anything that sounded remotely gory made her queasy, as she had learned from one of the little incidents she had with UFADO.
Yet, she saw the worriness on the boy's face, and began to regain hope until... he totally missed his point. She smiled sadly when he said that he cared about his parents, but... he could actually care about them and not be secretive to her girlfriend, right? "I... knew, Charles-kun" Mana simply said "Your mother and you... you really look alike, you know? I know that you care about them but... Why you don't want to tell me about them? I..." she began to feel said, and that was evident in the pained expression of her face "feel as if I don't know you" tears began descending from her cheeks in those instants "I know that I'm being selfish but, bu-ut, I've gi-iven you my heart be-ecause I wa-ant you to hold it, ye-et..." she began to sob on a rather hysterical way as her entire body shook "I AM SO UNTRUSTWORTHY THAT I CAN'T EVEN HAVE YOUR PARENT'S NAMES?!".
Crying uncontrollably, she stood up on her spot and ran away towards to exit. She could barely see because of the tears that were flowing through her eyes. On the street, she began running towards the first random direction that her mind dictated. She felt an immeasurable amount of pain, almost as if her heart were to be the pincushion of a thousand tiny and very sharp needles. First, Ryouta had rejected her, and now Charles couldn't trust in her, even if she had tried to help him in any way she could, even if she had given him her heart... she felt devastated. The only difference from this to their other encounter in this place was that this time... she was the one that ran away from him, and if it were for her, she would try to not to be found any time soon.
Who would say that the tables would turn this time. While Charles had ran away from Mana out of that very same café the first time that they met, now the exact opposite thing was happening.

Charles was caught compltely off-guard by Mana's reaction. She began to cry and shouting, this culminating in her leaving the cafe. Everyone else at the cafe had either hidden or left, to avoid witnessing this fight between the two lovers.
Charles didn't know what to do. For amoment he just reamined in his seat, completly stunned, but then he took off after Mana. She was nowhere to be seen.
"Mana!" Charles called out. "Please, come back! I'm sorry! Please! I really am."
Where could she be? Charles needed to find her, to apologize in her face to mend whatever he did wrong. But what could he do? He though he was doing the right thing by sharing that information about his parents, but it seemed to not be enough.
A tear came down Charles's eye. That's when he saw a figure running of. He'd forever recognise that hair, nomatter what she did to it. Charles ran after Mana.
"Mana please stop! I'll do anything, please just tell me what you want. Don't want to loose you. I could never take it. I..." Charles got hit by something, interrupting him. A huge rage grew within him, as he had stopped running and whatever this was had interrupted his words to Mana, his girlfriend for the moment. Still it felt more than just...natural. He couldn't explain or care about it right now, he needed to get Mana back. He began running again.
"Mana! If you wanna give me one more chance, please...I'll at alley. The to wich you followed me. I'll never forget that day and I wish you didn't either. Just ask what you want...And I'll give you the answer."
With this, Charles ran to the promissed location.

Still crying uncontrollably and with her movements clumsy thanks to her entire body trembling, she continued to run, trying to evade the crowd that was usually walking on the square. When Charles followed her, trying to stop her, she only wanted to get away faster, and forced her body to be faster, even if her movements became clumsier and clumsier. She was just infuriated; the problem was about her, and now, at least for now, she didn't care if he couldn't take it to lose her or not. He could have solved that problem only by trusting her, and in her hysteria, Mana believed that if Charles didn't want to do that small gesture, she didn't need to care about him. It was always the same routine; even if it was something about her, he turned it into something about him, and that only saddened her further.
Charles paused for a second, and Mana just kept trying to run. But then, he said another sentence that hurt her deeply. He wanted for her to search for him. Couldn't he just see? She wanted for him to pay attention to her, to take the initiave! He has been the passive one in the relationship thus far, always saying that everything was perfect and not getting involved into anything except his spirit hunts, and now... he just wanted for her to tail behind him again. Why couldn't he just see that she was the focus now? Back in the past, if she hadn't followed Charles until he dropped exhausted in that alley, he would have surely gotten away and they would have met in first place. And fittingly enough, if he didn't follow her until she did the same, she wouldn't give him his 'another chance' today.
Speaking of that, Mana's evergrowing clumsiness eventually paid off. She tripped with a random passerby's feet, falling facefirst just in front of Hachiko's statue. Not bothering to stand up, she just laid there, crying her heart out.
Ayaka immediately evolved to her Kodamon form, trying to help the girl to stand up, but she refused to to even acknowledge her presence. So, she rummaged through her purse until she found her D-Terminal and started typing.
From: Tsumura Mana <Currently Ayaka> To: Takamiya Karin <Karin-san> Subject: Miss Mana
Karin-san, an emergency has occured. Miss Mana and Charles-san had an argument and she's in a pretty pitiful state as of now. They are currently separated, and I do not know if he is going to pick her up or not. She is not even listening or reacting to me trying to help her, and this worries me greatly. I just do not know what to do... We are currently in front of Hachiko's statue.
OOC: Most narrated parts are Mana's hysteric rants. Sorry if you find them too offensive D:.

To: Tsumura Mana <Ayaka> From: Takamiya Karin <An Angry Black Cat> Subject: Re: Miss Mana
I already expected this much... Give me five minutes, I'll be there.
She told him to take care of her... she told him to not make her cry! The girl, which currently in beautiful feminine dress and hairdo started to pace out of the shopping store, not caring to change her clothes. Goddammit, Goddammit all... why it came to this? So much for a first date? She should've tagged along, right!? If the street were filled by water, then she's sure... that all water she step on would immediately vaporize.
"...Kami-sama... here I thought everything going to be fine... looks like I was SEVERELY wrong. Jeanne, wrap all those bags and come with me!" she ordered the angelic Digimon in disguise, who gravely nodded. Boys... boys always so dense, aren't they? Ryouta... and now this... F**k it all. She's bringing Mana home, that's for sure.
The blond haired girl arrived in Hachiko Square with white summer one piece with several fake gem-like decorations on them. Her hair tied into french braid and overall, she looked elegant and really charming if not for the scowling face she's currently putting on. And also, she's shaking in anger. She crouched down and stroke Mana's hair.
"...I'm going to take you back home to your house. We can talk there. I don't care if I have to drag you around... and if it's needed, Ayaka, tell me where's her house. She's not in condition to resume this, not at all."
She vowed to give that boy a senseless beating... Honestly... Never again, never again...
One chance to talk, and explain what's up, but she'll still give him good beating regardless.

(OOC: Don't worry, it's IC so I don't think there's a problem with being rude. However I must say that this IS stressful. Let's see how far I can extend this before it turns too confusing or vague to work from)
Arriving at the place where he said he'd be, Charles noticed Mana hadn't followed. The sadness was overthrowing, and the anger and hatred grew as well, still contained. What did he do wrong?
"What's...so...wrong...with...me?!" Charles asked no one as he bashed his head against the wall repeatedly, as if the physical pain could counter the other. He stopped breathing heavily "What have I done that ever had to set me to this fate?"
"*Oh, I think it's obvious, Charles. You think yourself above us, but you're the only one." Steamdramon commented from within Charles's head.
"What do you mean?" the boy asked.
"*You are a lier and a murderer, just like us. Don't you deny it, you know it's true." Steamdramon replied.
"No, you're lying. Mana can't see me that way she tried to help me." Charles said.
"* And in return you tried to kill her."
"**Oh Charles how much longer will you stay at this? It's inevitable she leaves you. It's not about her or you, it's about love. It's nothing mire than an illusion and what the both of you are living right is nothing more than the consequences of believing in it. I will even help you to prove my point. She wants you to go after her. She wants you to be honest and to take the innitiative. She wants you to go against your very nature." Nightspellmon explained Charles.
"How can YOU know? You have never been in love." Charles answered.
"**True, but I am only a fraction of a being, remember? I know how treatcherous love can be. I you're gonna learn that soon. Maybe you will even learn to listen to me." Nightspellmon commented ending with a burst of laughter. "And and don't forget...there are TWO people in a relantionship. Both mater the same. Both can get hurt. Both can be happy with each other...or not."
"She's not coming here. It's time I go to her then. I'll do anything to be with her. Anything." Charles promissed. He got out of the alley and ran to where he last saw Mana, trying to see if she was there.
What he found...she was with Karin. No, he couldn't stop now. He approached carefully.
"Mana, I'm sorry. Just tell me what I have to do, because I don't know. I've never been in a relantionship before, I haven't seen movie or anything, I just want a tip. A guideline. Anything you can give me. I don't deserve you, but I wanna make up to you, just tell me how." Charles begged.

"Miss Mana... please, answer me" Ayaka said as she tugged the girl's shoulder, to no avail. She felt so useless in this situation, and while she could get an idea of why Mana was so sad (even when Ayaka herself would be genuinely angry if a person that did that to her, instead of sad), she felt that even if she tried, she couldn't bring solace to the young girl's hurting heart "Please...".
She just hoped that her decision of calling Karin was the correct one. She'd hate if this turned for the worse by a mistake she had committed, but she felt like she needed to do something to at least bring Mana to her home, as the girl's current position, just plummeted on the hard ground face first while crying incontrollably wasn't a pretty sight. It pained Ayaka's heart with more force than as if her very digicore were to be ripped in shreds, but luckily, Karin arrived soon. Thank goodness. "Karin-san" she muttered quietly when the girl approached them, as if trying to not to attract attention to herself, but even while doing that, she didn't bother to conceal the great pain and distress that stained her usually calm and collected voice "I thank you so much for coming. I have been trying to make miss Mana to get up, but she is just unresponsive".
At her hair being stroked, Mana flinched instantly, avoiding the contact as if Karin's hand were burning herself. "DON'T TOUCH ME!" she yelled at her on a hysterical voice, but quickly calmed herself when she realized that the person who did that was not the one who she supposed it was, and that only served to make her cry even louder. "I-I-I'm s-s-so-rr-r-y, K-kk-aa-ar-r-ri-in-ne-ee" she said on barely understandable words as she sobbed, with her tears running down her eyes as if they were two small waterfalls. She then tried to get up by herself, but she felt so weak, even that she collapsed instantly.
Ayaka, quick on her roots, immediately helped to get her up on her second try, and she managed to actually make her sit on the ground. It wasn't the best, but at least she wasn't laying facefirst on the floor. Mana's appearance was really pitiful; her once beautiful dress was now stained by the dirt of the floor, and her face didn't fare any better. Her eyes were red and swollen because all the tears they had shed, and her face looked to be really dirty, with the tears making an impression of a less noticeable smudged mascara. It wasn't a pretty sight.
But before the fairy could say or do anything, Charles had appeared. "Okay, Charles-san, let me be frank. I think I understand miss Mana's plight, and while she cannot talk to you due to her state, I hope to express her feelings clearly, or at least clearly enough. First of all, she expects for you take the initiative; it just cannot be that you have to wait until things blow up to see that there is something wrong happening and otherwise be really lax about it. Believe it or not, miss Mana is interested in you, and now think how can she feel when you cannot even trust her with your surname? or your parents' first names? For the Great August Kami's sake! Miss Mana has risked her life for you on various ocassions and has chosen to confide in you about anything you asked to her and you cannot even do that for her? Honestly, Charles-san, I do not know what to think about you anymore. And maybe the most infuriating part of all these is that... miss Mana is willing to forgive you and give you a fresh start, with the only condition being your sincerity towards her".
Even if she was still crying on an inconsoloble manner, Mana managed to nod weakly with her head at Ayaka's last words. It was obvious that she wouldn't talk anytime soon, but at least the digimon could interpret her feelings to an extent.

The moment she screamed, Karin flinched, but regardless, she keep stroking the younger girl's head caringly, despite her face obviously doesn't show it... It holds great fury... The knight digimon in disguise beside her just simply look at the pair solemnly. "...I'd like to hear more from you, of what exactly happened, Ayaka, but apparently... I don't really have to do it afterall... May I kindly suggest you to watch what you're going to say next, Charles?" Jeanne's last tone sounds very cold, like a literal ice blade aimed at the boy. She also dropped the honorifics, which meant very bad in this situation. However, it's clear that angel is holding down Karin by putting a hand on her shoulder. The girl tore off her hair accessories, undoing all the beautiful braids that Jeanne has put on her, and returned more to her normal self... albeit still burning in fury.
"...I told you... I TOLD YOU TO NOT MAKE HER CRY!! WHAT'S YOUR EXPLANATION RIGHT NOW, HUH!? WHY IS SHE LIKE THIS, EVEN AFTER OUR EFFORT TO FIX YOUR DATE, TO SET THIS BETTER AFTER THAT ONE INCIDENT!? If... If only Yuu's here, I'd told him about this already!! Honestly... honestly..."
Karin really want to grab that guy by his collar... She really want to pound some sense to him, she really want to do her signature heel kick on the guy... Kami help her, she's entering meltdown phase. If it not because of her partner's soothing hand, she would probably kick him from the get go.
"...I'd so love it to punch you... I'd so love it to kick you for making her cry... But she herself is willing to give you a second shot now! I wouldn't get anything from that... I'd only make her sad... Now... I'll warn you off for real.... Make her cry again, and I'll make sure that my heels will be on your stomach!"
"....Well, I guess that's all the threats from her... Now, honestly, after what I heard from Ayaka, I'm really disappointed... verily so... I just hope the next time we meet, it won't be like this again... That girl, she's precious to me as she is precious to my partner. Now, I too will say, I'll give you a strong slap if this happened again. Now, the situation won't neutralize itself, so we'll giving you two a private time..." Jeanne told the two lovers. "...I and Mistress will wait on that cafe over there... go call us if you need us, but let's hope it's not because of this kind of incident again. Please excuse us."
The pair walked to the nearby cafe, with Karin obviously still furious.

(OOC: *Grabs his own collar, and swallows*)
Charles listened to Karin, she was clearly angry at him, and quite likely with reason.
"I'm not sure WHAT I did wrong yet,but I must have done something, so if you want to punch me, kick me, whatever, please do, but not today. I'd prefer seeing this fixed before." Charles commented. Ayaka then explained what was essentially what nightspellmon had just told him, with one exception. But if that part of what his spirit had told was true, then...could the rest be as well? Was he doomed to loose the Mana inevetably, was this relationship fated to end in disaster? No, he had yo take it off his head, he had to focus on what what was important. "Thank you Ayaka. And to you to Karin and Jeanene." Charles said as the newcomer decided she and her partner would give him and Mana some privacy. The boy got on his knee, over a rock. It didn't hurt a lot, at least not at first. But from his chest a pain grew, intense. Charles decided it was best to ignore it for now. "Ashmore. That's my surname. Not a very one, I know, but I guess that happens. My parents are Jessica Robertson and James Ashmore. I was born 15 years ago, in Los Angeles. We weren't "particulary rich", though we managed and when my dad got this huge promotion we moved to Japan. Everything started to fine, better I'd say until there was this car crash. I beleive I told about the nightmares it gave me in that day in the park. I got p a little pulled away from friends after they begun, and a few months later, I got sucked into the digital world." Charles told Mana, looking right at her, trying to perceive her reaction " I know this isn't too much of a precisely detailed story, and if you have any questions for me, just ask them. I don't wanna hide anything from you, but...I see you as more than the walls around us, you are SOMEONE, more than just any person, my girlfriend. I guess...I guess I need to learn these things. Trust and proactiveness, two things I lack. Will you teach them to me?" Charles asked. "I want nothing more than to be with you. Is it the same way with you?"

Mana listened to the boy's words attentively. He was really trying to talk about his past, even if it hurt him. "Thank you, Charles-kun. I feel... a little better after hearing that. Hopefully I can meet your parents one day; I'd be so happy to do that" she sighed heavily, and finally gave the boy a small smile. Yet, at the question he had made, she looked... doubtful. For a second, she considered that maybe this relationship was too taxing for both her mind and her body, but she quickly shook her head before responding. She was up to give Charles a new opportunity, for he deserved at least that.
"I...I-I... don't know, Charles-kun. I mean, I want to help you as much as I can, and I promised that I'd help you to find your spirits and to try to recover your old life, but I don't know. It almost seems as if I had to cry or pass out and someone has to berate you to understand how I feel. I-I'm not strong, Charles-kun, I'm just a weak crybaby girl that wants to help, that wants... to be with you" even if she seemed to have struggled with that word, she was being sincere "If you don't hold me, I feel like as if I were crumbling apart, caving in under all this pressure and I just... hate this feeling. But let's begin again, okay? Past is past, and as long as you are willing to hold unto me, I'll be at your side. I want for you to be happy, and I'm sorry for being so demanding... inconvenient and all those things. I know that you are you, but I don't know why I'm trying to change you so much... Maybe this all is my fault". . She was really considering that last sentence, until she remembered a very small detail. "Just one question, though. Have you paid that café's bill?" she asked, blushing a little with embarassment "I'd feel so bad if the people in there thought that we faked an argument to not to pay".

Honestly, when she heard what Charles said, Karin nearly launch herself again at the boy for not knowing what he done to get such a treatment. Aren't that crystal clear already? Jeanne luckily acted fast and grabbed her before she could even do anything to the really tall boy. The angel dismissed it with wave of hand, but honestly... Jeanne herself would totally gawk like a fool before slapping him if she doesn't have such a great composure. However, knowing how this thing goes, this range of problem is already clear. Jeanne practically have to drag her mistress away from the site.
Grumbling, Karin ordered a milk tea for herself. The girl totally hates his situation. Honestly, she really want to run from this place before she trashes everything. But, for the sake of her 'little sister', she'll stay still in here until called. When Jeanne seen the situation probably has fixed a bit, she asked Karin for her D-Terminal, something that the girl gave on a heartbeat.
She smiled slightly at her mistress obvious worry to her 'sister'

Do you still need our presence here? Of course, I'd prefer if we stay here so we can act if something gone wrong, but then again... privacy over everything else, yes? Shall we give you privacy?
