In her hurry Tessa had dropped an item from her shopping bag and she seemed to not notice it as Miki picked it up and caught up to her. She then tapped on her shoulder, "Uhm...you dropped this," she said holding out the item.

Tessa nodded, "Oh, thank you," she said, taking the item happily. Yeah, she needed that one for later...

"I thought so, I saw you on the news when your dad was presenting his latest novel," Miki said with a tone of indifference, "you were sort of at the back just beside your mum. It must be exciting to have a dad who's a famous author."

"It's...it's not," she said. She didn't want to talk about her father or his work.

"Really?" Miki asked questioningly, "I thought it would, I mean having a parent that's famous is kind of interesting isn't it? So then why are you here in Japan?"

"Ooh...so you're studying abroad huh?" Miki said pondering on that for a moment, "Then why are you running away from it all?"

"Because I don't want to be known at the daughter of an author. I want to be myself," she stated.

"I see...I guess I can relate to that in some way," Miki said, "wanting to be normal, wanting to be able to do things without people watching you...wanting to forge your own future and forget the past...yeah I guess it is tough."

She just nodded a few times. She really didn't mind talking like this, but the subject got to her.
