"It does" she says to him softly, watching him bike about "He really cares about you"

Hinata smiled gently.
"I know...I told you yesterday, did I not?" she responded, her tone playful.
"I never thought I would be in love with royalty, but...here it is."

"Here it is" she smiles softly
"I never thought that I would be with anyone, much less an imperial. Maybe we find ourselves in the same boat"

Hinata let out an amused 'hm'.
"It is a nice boat, even if the waters can get choppy. How are things going with Mako-chan, by the way?"

"I am very in love." she sighs softly "I have taken on the things that you have said yesterday, I am not pinning all my hopes for the future on her... But I am very much in love"

Hinata nodded.
"That is good to hear. I hope things work out for us both."
Hinata then frowned and sighed.
"He talked to the ha--" she caught herself, remembering that Priya and Katsumi seemed close. "--Otomo-sensei this morning. I do not know what was said, but hopefully it will get her to back off of me."

"I have asked that she does as well. I don't understand why she is so interested in offering friendship to me, and not to you."
She shrugs "She is a complicated woman, but she is loyal to her duty"

"I do not know either. All I know is that she has been harassing me ever since Yoshinobu and I met in the cafe I work at."
She brushed a lock of hair behind her ear, keeping her hand there and massaging it gently with her fingers.
"I think it probably has something to do with that. For a while I thought I may just be paranoid, but then my friend Nadeshiko revealed to me that Otomo-sensei hired her to spy on me. She showed me the koku, too."
She shook her head.
"What is her duty, exactly? I thought the Otomo were supposed to be pencil pushers, I cannot see how this relates to that at all."

"As I understand it, they deal with bureaucracy, and make sure that everything runs correctly. The Prince cannot pick his own marriage after all"
She shrugs "I suppose, at least you have a chance to be married"

"He's not picking his marriage, I am just a potential candidate. Ultimately the decision is up to the Nakodo, and if she does not pick me, well..."
Hinata frowned.
"...well I suppose I cannot do anything about it" she finished, her tone sad.
