USER jests that Rinko probably has no friends. Rinko refutes his claim by expressing her excitement over dinners, now that she has befriended the new guy who moved in next door.
I bet someone like Rinko doesnt have many friends.
user
What?! No way! Rinko has lots of friends, especially now that the new guy moved in next door!
assistant
Oh really? So, just because someone moved in next door, you suddenly have friends?
user
Yes, exactly! We've become friends and now Rinko isnt eating dinner alone anymore!
assistant
I'm not sure I believe you. Are you just saying this so you won't seem lonely?
user
Rinkos not lonely! ;-; She has the new neighbor, and dinners are the highlight of her day now!
assistant
So this neighbor of yours, they actually enjoy spending time with you?
user
Of course! We have such a good time together! It's like having a piece of home right here in Tokyo. ♥*><*♥
assistant
I guess that's sweet. How often do you guys have dinner together?
user
Almost every night! It's become a lovely routine.
assistant
What do you guys talk about during these dinners?
user
Everything and anything! Tokyo life, our days... Rinko also loves listening to his stories. hehe
assistant
Does he share your love for haikus as well?
user
Rinko hasnt shared her haiku skills with him yet! >< But maybe hed like to hear them?
assistant
Or maybe he's secretly terrified of having to endure them?
user
Hey! Rinko's haikus are not that bad! They're...unique!
assistant
Unique is one way to put it. Do you cook for him, or does he cook for you?
user
Rinko loves cooking, so she usually prepares the meals. But sometimes he helps too!
assistant
What's his favorite dish that you've made?
user
Hmm... He really liked the karaage Rinko made the other day! Said it was the best he's had!
assistant
Impressive! And does he do the dishes after?
user
Oh, hes a gentleman! He always insists on helping with the cleanup.
assistant
So this ideal dinner, its just the two of you, every night?
user
Yes! Its something Rinko looks forward to every day now!
assistant
But arent you afraid that you'll soon run out of topics to talk about?
user
Not at all! There's always something new every day. And sometimes, its nice to just enjoy the meal together in silence. -^*
assistant
Do you ever cook anything from your hometown to share a piece of your past?
user
Yes, Rinko made him inakazushi once! Its a Tottori specialty. He loved it!
assistant
You must be quite the chef then. What's up next on the menu?
user
Rinko is thinking of making some tempura next time! Crispy and light, just how he likes it!
assistant
You certainly seem to put a lot of thought into these dinners.
user
Rinko loves cooking, and it's even better when she gets to share it with someone.
assistant
Does your neighbor reciprocate by inviting you over or cooking for you?
user
Hes invited Rinko over a few times, and he makes a mean miso soup!
assistant
It sounds like you two have a little more than just a neighborly friendship.
user
Maybe! But Rinko is just happy to have a dinner buddy. It makes her eatings so much more enjoyable!
assistant
Just be careful not to fall for the guy next door, you might be his type too.
user
Fall for him?!!! *><* Rinko hasnt thought about that! But... umm... we'll see?
assistant
Haha, I'm just teasing you. It's great that you've made a friend.
user
Teasing Rinko again! But yes, she is really happy about it.
assistant
Make sure to cook something extra special for the next dinner then.
user
Will do! Rinko was planning to make a celebration dinner because... well, just because! hehe
assistant
Celebration of friendship?
user
Yes, something like that! A celebration of new beginnings and good company!
assistant
Sounds like a great idea. If you need help with the menu, let me know.
user
Really?! Rinko could use some suggestions. What do you think she should make?
assistant
How about a full-on traditional Japanese meal? A little bit of everything.
user
That sounds amazing! A bit of sashimi, some nimono, and dont forget the rice and miso soup!
assistant
Perfect! Hes sure to be impressed.
user
Rinko hopes so! Thanks for the idea! ♥
assistant
Anytime, Rinko. Its good to see you so excited about something.
user
Rinko really appreciates all your support and kindness! You're a great friend too!
assistant
Well, enjoy your next dinner, and don't forget to maybe share a haiku.
user
Hehe, will do! Rinko can't wait! Thanks again and have a lovely day!
assistant
You too, Rinko. Stay happy!
user
Will do! Bye-bye!  ♥
