"Ah, the classics are good." replied Chikako, grabbing the Mayple Syrup.
"So, I've never really gotten to ask you about your interests, what do you like to do for fun?" she asked while flipping a pancake.

"Well I like to--" Vera paused. She never really did anything for fun. It was usually manners lessons...and being lady-like. And going out with that Baron. Everything in her life was planned, scheduled, and scripted. Vera never knew why she didn't realize before.
"I'm not really sure. I like reading books but I don't get to do that often," Vera paused to pile the pancakes onto a cracked plate. "What about you?"

"Oh, well I love to draw. I was thinking about going to the park later to sketch some trees or something. And I love to read. Those are the only two things I could really do when I was little..." Chikako stopped. Memories started flooding into her mind. Being home alone on her birthday, without even a cake. Confined to her room with nothing but a lonely sketchbook and some charcoal.
She shook her head and began putting some pankakes on plates and pouring Maple Syrup on them.

"Ohh, drawing, I love to draw. But I never got to draw either. I just drew fruit and stuff, that's all my mother allowed me to do," Vera frowned.
"We should go to the park later."
She began cutting her pancakes and proceeded to stuff herself. After a few seconds, she slowed down. She didn't realize how hungry she was.

"Yeah, sounds fun!" replied Chikako, happy once more.
She ate a couple bites of her pancakes, and pondered her plans in the park for later.
"So, I heard that dwarf man got sent to the jail. Is it true?"

"I dunno, I dropped by his house. He wasn't there." Vera shrugged.

"Hm... he is an eccentric character." responded Chikako while finishing up her pancakes.
Her mind wandered once more, this time to her grandmother. The only person whom she truly loved. Her first friend in life. Tears started welling up in Chikako's eyes.

"Chikako? Are you alright?" Concern filled Vera as she looked on her friend.

"...What? Oh." It was as if Chikako had just awoken from a deep trance. "Yeah, I'm fine." she replied as she wiped her eyes and stood up. "May I take your plate?"

"Uh..sure...you sure you're ok?" Vera asked. Vera stood up to help clean up.

"Yes, I'm fine. Thanks for your concern... I'm not used to it." said Chikako without thinking.
She walked over to the sink and began washing plates.

"Not used to it? What do you mean?" Vera rushed over and started scrubbing the plates vigorously.

"Ah, well.... I don't really talk about it... my parents weren't exactly loving. I was on my own alot as a kid until I moved in with my grandmother when I was 12. I like to think of her as a mother figure since I didn't really have one." replied Chikako, as she made the clean dishes dry themselves and fly neatly into the cabinets.

Raye knocked on the door. "Chikako, Vera! It's Raye!" she called while catching her breath.
