[55th Replay]

[ Rika noticed pretty early on. Keiichi was droned one day and it continued for a while. She tired to convince herself that it wasn't anything to worry about and he'd be back to normal soon, but it didn't happen.

So at first she was an emo mess. Which just meant that she tried to avoid social interactions and holed up in her room whenever possible. She even decided to neglect her Birthday, because it wasn't as exciting when she was so mad at fate. But now she's fixed herself up. She'll have come down for breakfast that morning and then headed out to enjoy her summer, as usual. ]

[ Action 1 ; Ricardo Street - Morning ]
[ The first place Rika stops on her exciting day out. She'll pass 505 Ricardo Street and stop in front of the mailbox, looking up at the house with a neutral expression. Then she takes in a deep breath, exhales... does that one more time... and smiles as large a smile as possible. ]
See you later, Keiichi! When I get back to Hinamizawa, you had better be waiting for Rena and I! Do not get out of shape or you will get the punishment!
[ Then she bows towards the house and runs off down the street again. She's so focused on getting away before she can change her resolve that she may bump into anyone passing by. ]

[ Phone ; Afternoon ]
mi~i! The summer is going to be getting away from us very soon, everyone! Doesn't school start in a few weeks or so? I am going to be in the High School this year because I turned 15! I would like it very much if I could have a chance to meet my classmates before school begins! Maybe we could go to the park and play too or spend time at the pool before it gets too busy to play around!

If you are free this afternoon or this week, please call me back! I would very much like to spend the rest of the summer nicely!
