Hinata 

-but...

-one out of every three billion...

-Those aren't even close to the odds of winning the lotto.

Kasukabe 

-Heyy!!

-Compliments, I said!!

-you don't listen to me now huh

(telling me while pouting)

Hinata 

-But isn't it my responsibility as your buddy and at the same time as your bestfriend to keep you from gambling and out of trouble?

Kasukabe (eyes rolling)

-However, aren't you far too pessimistic?

-I didn't say there's just one in every three billion people,

-It's simply that I'm sure I'll get a lot more chances.

-I suppose I don't have anything to go on.

(Kasukabe has a grins on her face.)

Her reaction demonstrates her tenacity. Kasukabe doesn't seem to mind that she's already been through one disastrous marriage and it seems like it doesn't really bother her that much.She is always so optimistic and always surrounds herself with positive vibes that no one can put her down

Hinata 

-(Kasukabe is really powerful... and she is also strong)

-(I guess I'd give up on the concept of marriage if it were up to me..)

-(I also feel like i wouldn't ever have the courage to date again)

-(I mean, just sitting on the sidelines watching the divorce process has me thinking that.)

 Kasukabe continues to smile while chatting and filling everyone's drink orders,she also rented a karaoke room for all of us to sing and have fun. Our small gathering made everyone happy and remove the stress that built into us, and daylight began to goes deep into the night.

{then the next morning}

[at my new position in the editorial department of trinalium publishing company]

‘i check my email’

Hinata 

-oh good

the words 'oh good' practically spill out of my mouth

???

-ahhh...

-has Mr. Damon’s draft finally been uploaded?

The individual standing at my desk right now is a fellow graduate of the same university as me.

Mito Senba, my senior employee and the ace of the editorial department.He is also my friend and the person who helps me a lot during work , and at the same time my leader in the editorial team.

Hinata 

-yes, finally

-Isn't he aware of how close we are to the deadline?

-Mr.Damon is a really outstanding writer but he just isn't the type to submit on early dates and rather he would do it in last minutes preparations

(Despite my complaining, im really glad the manuscript has been uploaded and i have more less things to worry about)

Mito Senba 

-thanks for your continued hard work

(His hand gently pats the top of my head while smiling nicely)

(Mito’s pats on the head feel so natural, and without any underlying intentions. It really calms me down.)
