You're really one of a kind." he enunciated."Well, I'm glad I made you laugh." Clarissa said, while shrugging her shoulders."By the way, are you hungry?

"Yes, Sir. I'm absolutely fine. Why are you outside?" Clarissa curiously asked him."Oh, I'm just here to get some fresh air. How about you, what are you doing here?" Toru asked her the same question."Uh, same to you, I guess. I'm feeling a bit suffocated inside." Clarissa responded, while shrugging her shoulders.His instinct's telling him that Clarissa's hiding her real feelings.
