Purple is Chokata's favorite color; she never uses any other color ribbons but purple to tie her hair.
Chokata fell in love at first sight with this purple Karakara and without hesitation, took out her wallet—
And thus, Chokata now found herself in this silly state, playing with the Karakara while smiling foolishly.
Humming a self-composed song, she returned to Shiwei Hall, seeing Kondo currently tidying up bamboo swords in the dojo. Chokata rushed over.
"Brother Kondo! Look at this!" Chokata vigorously waved the Karakara in her hand, making it clatter noisily. "Isn't it beautiful?"
Kondo looked at the Karakara in Chokata's hand with a speechless expression, then glanced again at the excited Chokata.
"Toshisuke, you're 16 this year too. Why are you still like a child, enjoying such children's toys?"
"A toy is just a toy," Chokata stated with confidence, "Who ever said we adults can't play with children's toys?"
Kondo sighed: "Alright. As long as you like it."
