Tuesday Again

There was no school today (technically) because it was a holiday of some kind, so I was able to meet Rinko at other places around Towano - which is unusual for a weekday. I took advantage of the situation and met her at the Temple this morning:

Even though school was closed, we still had to don our uniforms and rock up for Library Committee duty in the afternoon. The scrunchies were back, only green this time...

And in the evening, Rinko and I rode our bikes to Ten Feather Station to visit the Second Hand Clothing Store.

There are two exciting things coming up soon. Firstly, Friday is Valentine's Day, which also marked the two-year anniversary of the launch of the star-crossed "New LovePlus". I don't have a gift for Rinko yet, so I'd better visit the Shopping Mall tomorrow, before it's too late! Secondly, I've booked a date for Sunday at 9:00am. Dates with Rinko are always fun.

Monday

Today was the last day of the winter break (= the last day of freedom) before school starts back tomorrow, so I tried to enjoy it with Rin-Rin as much as possible. I met her again at the Second Hand Clothing Shop in Ten Yu station, just for the novelty of riding our bikes there.

This final shot is from a late afternoon meet-up at Dixies (in more familiar territory).

Bicycle!

Something very strange happened for the FIRST TIME today. When I called up Rinko for a short date this afternoon, I was able to meet her somewhere else apart from Shin Towano (our local area). The option was also there to meet her at the Second Hand Clothing Store, which is in neighbouring Ten Yuu (Ten Feather) Station. This has never happened before in my two years of playing New LovePlus, and I can only think that it's connected to my level somehow.

Anyway, it was nice to meet up somewhere out of the ordinary. When we were going home, I found out why it was possible without train travel - we went by bike! As we walked along, I took some very cute shots of Rinko wheeling her bicycle.

I know it's probably nothing to get excited about, but it's another example of the way this game can keep surprising me, even after so many months of gameplay. Plus, it opens up a whole lot of new possibilities for dating.
