"Oh, father! You're here?" Elizabeth's face brightened in delight. "You really saved me now, but I didn't expect to see you so soon!"
"Hahaha! Well, you shouldn't have expected any less from yours truly! I didn't think you'd underestimate me when it comes to matters you're involved in!" He laughed proudly. "Who's that to your side? A new friend? Or, are you maybe babysitting her."
"Father! Don't say stuff like that! Hikari and I are the same age! And yes, I would say we are definitely more than acquaintances."
"Oh, that's interesting!" He smiled further. "Tell me about her later along with everything else that you did at school okay? In the meantime, do you mind if I snatch you off her hand?"
