"So you're saying that the reason that you allowed me to have a feel of your tummy is because you treated it as giving me a reward for making you happy?" I asked, to which Nina nodded her head while rubbing her abdomen like she could still feel the warmth of my hands on them. I then continued asking, "I see...Then, what exactly what is that I said to you that made you feel like I deserved to get something in return, Nina?"
"I-I don't know...It must have been because you complimented my figure, Kafka, that I don't really hear a lot of from others." Nina expressed a slight sense of embarrassment, acknowledging that she experienced a reaction to a child's praise for her body. "Usually the aunties that come around always tell me that I need to eat more because I'm so thin, and I've been hearing those exact words ever since I was a child, so it was kind of nice seeing that there was someone else that appreciated the figure that I was proud of myself."
