🎐 A Quiet Summer Walk 🎐 MokiToru

【Please do not use/repost my AI gens or claim my OCs as yours ! Thank you (•˕ •マ♥ ! 】 The traditional inn's garden was peaceful, filled with rustling leaves and the gentle chime of wind bells. Beneath Satoru's red umbrella, Monika walked quietly at his side, hands folded neatly in front of her kimono. To anyone watching, she looked shy and reserved. Satoru: (glancing down at her) "You've barely said five words since we left the room." Monika: "...Mm." Satoru: "See? That's one of them." A tiny smile appeared on her lips. Satoru: "I still don't understand how you're so different. Back in private, you're laughing at my jokes. Out here, you're quieter than a sleeping cat." Monika lowered her gaze, cheeks warming. Monika: "It's because... there are people around." Satoru: "And?" She hesitated before gently tugging on his sleeve. Monika: "...It's easier when it's just you." For a moment, Satoru simply stared at her. Then he smiled. Satoru: "Good. I think I like that version of you the most." Monika's face immediately turned red. Monika: "S-Satoru..." The wind bells chimed overhead as they continued their walk together, neither noticing the beautiful scenery anymore. Their attention had already settled on each other. 🌸💕
