One year later with a cute tsundere

Today is September 4th, 2024. This means it's been exactly 1 year since Nina first arrived. To be honest, there have been some times where I've forgotten about the series. However, I never truly forgot.

Oh, guess I should clarify this is the author talking in-story. Now let's check in on Johan and Nina.

...

It's been a year since Nina arrived. However, I'm still not sure if anyone else can see her. Though I've been showering her with love so maybe, just maybe...

My thoughts are interrupted by my mother entering. "Who's that girl sitting next to you?"

"WAIT! YOU CAN SEE HER!?"

"Oh, must be one of those weird life-sized dolls."

"I'm NOT a doll!" Nina fumed.

"Even talks too... I'll be going."

As soon as my mother slammed the door shut, Nina turned to me and pouted. "How rude, I'm real, dammit!"

"She can see you, that means you are real. A day ago she couldn't even see you, now she can!"

"Wait! That is a big deal! Now I can go give her a piece of my mind!"

"Uh, that might frighten her. Let's take that slowly."

"Though now that the world can see me, I wonder what things will be like if we did all the things we did this past year again."

"Post labor day barbecue and stargazing?"

"You know it!" Nina smiled.
