"So, is there anything you want to eat?" Satoru asked, his voice still carrying a trace of their shared laughter, though he was now regaining his composure.

Yuki's expression returned to its usual calmness as she nodded, pointing towards a nearby stall.

"Hm, I'd like to try that one," she said, her voice as measured and composed as ever.

Her gaze was fixed on a vendor selling takoyaki, the sizzling aroma of the octopus-filled dough balls wafting through the air.

Satoru glanced over and smiled.

"Alright, let's go. But just so you know... I don't have any money, not even 1 dollar," he said, scratching the back of his head awkwardly as they began walking towards the stall.

"Dollar? Where is that currency?" she thought to herself, not sure if it was because of her ignorance or something, but she just let the thought go away.

Yuki's lips curved into a faint smirk as she walked beside him.
