Kaze: Lady Hinoka. Pardon the interruption. I have come to deliver a letter from Lady Sakura.
Hinoka: Ah, Kaze. Thank you.
Kaze: No need for thanks. I am just performing my duty. Besides, it is an honor to be entrusted with your letters. I am happy to be of service.
Hinoka: All right, all right. May I have the letter now?
Kaze: Of course. Here you are.
Hinoka: Haha! Sakura really knows her way around a pen. She's such a hoot on the page. Especially today. Must be in a good mood.
Kaze: A good mood? That is excellent news. Though I am surprised to hear she is so different in writing than she is in person.
Hinoka: No need to be shy if there's no one around, right? Now, let's see... Ah, so that's what it was. She found a beautiful field of flowers the other day. By the way, what did she look like when she handed you the letter?
Kaze: She seemed ecstatic. She was smiling ear to ear. She said she wanted to tell you in person, but she needed to record her thoughts. It was an experience she did not want to forget.
Hinoka: I see. Heh. Sounds just like her. Thank you, Kaze.
Kaze: It was no problem. It warms my heart to see you two exchanging letters. I vow to continue serving your family to the best of my ability.
Hinoka: You're being melodramatic again, Kaze. It's not that big of a deal.
Kaze: Haha. Perhaps you're right, milady.

Kaze: Lady Hinoka. I have another letter from Lady Sakura today.
Hinoka: Ah, thank you, Kaze. Hmm...
Kaze: What's the matter, milady?
Hinoka: Something is wrong. She seems very upset about something. But she's not saying what it is.
Kaze: I see. I thought she was acting strangely today.
Hinoka: Is that so?
Kaze: I do not think Lady Sakura wished to concern you. Perhaps she will be more forthcoming if you go to speak to her in person.
Hinoka: Yes. You're right. I'll go see her as soon as I have some time.
Kaze: Yes. I think that would be for the best. I only wish I could be more helpful.
Hinoka: Huh? Did you say something?
Kaze: ...No, it's nothing. Would you like me to bring a reply to her in the meantime, milady?
Hinoka: Yes, good idea. Please wait here while I write it.
Kaze: Of course, milady.

Hinoka: Hey, Kaze. Got a minute?
Kaze: Yes, milady. How may I be of service?
Hinoka: Do you remember how Sakura was upset the other day? Well, I think we managed to work things out.
Kaze: Oh? I'm glad to hear it.
Hinoka: As you said, talking to her in person helped a lot. Thanks for the advice.
Kaze: No need to thank me. I had nothing to do with it. It was the strength of your bond. I talked to her myself, and it only made me more aware of how little I could do.
Hinoka: Come on. Don't be like that.
Kaze: Hm?
Hinoka: I might never have thought to talk to her if you hadn't suggested it. So stop pitying yourself. All right?
Kaze: ...Very well. Thank you, Lady Hinoka. I will continue to serve you both to the best of my abilities. If it facilitates better communication, perhaps I should watch Lady Sakura.
Hinoka: Watch her?
Kaze: Yes. So I can alert you immediately if anything bad happens. If you wish it, I will keep an eye on her at all times.
Hinoka: All times?
Kaze: Do not fear. I would not do anything too indiscreet, of course.
Hinoka: No...I think that would be overkill.
Kaze: Would it?
Hinoka: Yes. But I appreciate the thought, Kaze.
Kaze: Understood, milady. However, if you need anything else at all, do not be afraid to ask.
Hinoka: Yes. Thank you, Kaze.

Kaze: Lady Hinoka. Another letter for you from Lady Sakura.
Hinoka: Oh...thank you.
Kaze: You don't look well, milady. Is something troubling you?
Hinoka: Yes, I suppose you could say that.
Kaze: What is it? Is there anything I can do to help?
Hinoka: The truth is...it's about a man.
Kaze: A man? You mean...romantically?
Hinoka: Yes. I'm trying to figure out how to tell him about my feelings.
Kaze: Ah. So that's what's troubling you. For what it's worth, I think you could tell him any way you'd like. No one could turn down a woman as wonderful as you.
Hinoka: Do you really mean that?
Kaze: I do.
Hinoka: ...All right. Here goes nothing. The man I'm talking about is you, Kaze.
Kaze: What?!
Hinoka: You have such a kind and devoted soul. I admire it very much. Do you mind my saying so?
Kaze: Of course not. If anything, the opposite. You've no idea how happy I am. Just now, when you said you had feelings for someone, I felt a pain in my chest.
Hinoka: Kaze...
Kaze: But when you said that man was me...it was as if a heavy weight was lifted.
Hinoka: You mean...you feel the same way?
Kaze: Yes. I love you, Lady Hinoka. I have for some time now. I admired you from afar, knowing it was not proper for one like me to love a princess. But I cannot hide it any longer. I adore you. Your kindness, your strength, your ferocity. You are a special woman, milady.
Hinoka: So, then. The real question. Do you believe you are ready to be with a princess?
Kaze: Yes, if you will have me. I shall love you for the rest of time.
Hinoka: Oh my. I think my heart just fluttered! I love you too, Kaze.
Kaze: I am overcome with emotion. Thank you, Hinoka.
