The next morning, Joseph awoke to find Yoshi already dressed and ready for the day.
"I hope you slept well?" Yoshi asked, noticing Joseph stirring.
"Yeah, I did. What's with the new look?" Joseph asked, intrigued by Yoshi's formal attire.
"I've got a council meeting. Wanna tag along?" Yoshi offered with a friendly smile.
"Nah, thanks, but I'll pass," Joseph replied casually.
Yoshi chuckled. "Well, you know where to find me if you change your mind," he said before heading out.
After freshening up, Joseph decided to take a stroll around the kingdom to clear his mind, still preoccupied with thoughts of his last encounter with Yukio. As he explored the bustling streets and the lively marketplace, the kingdom's beauty and its unique charm became more apparent. But the serenity of his walk quickly shifted when he unexpectedly crossed paths with Yukio.
