She bumped into someone.

"And what are you doing here?"

She looked up.

Two men were standing in front of her. She grabbed her head.

"Ouch-"

Then she heard a familiar voice:

"No way- Guapa~! How are you???"

Indeed, she recognized quickly the man she met in the village; Francoist Spain.

"Hi Spain..."

"It's been a while! You don't even know how much I've been thinking about you since that day-"

"Ah... Haha..."

Then the other man said:

"Spagna, when are you going to introduce me to this pretty lady?"

She couldn't avoid getting a bit flustered when he called her pretty.

"Ah! You're right! Señorita Y/N, this is Kingdom of Italy!"

Kingdom of Italy commented on that:

"Please call me simply Italia or Italy, whichever is better for you."

Italy smiled.

"...Ah... Pleased to meet you, Italy!"

Italy's smile grew a bit.

"You look like a cheerful person! I hope we can get to know each other in the future~!"

There was something in his tone that reminded her of Reich, but she quickly dismissed it. Italy looks like a happy person. But something really was tingling her senses.

"Yeah, why not?"

They both smiled. But then Spain cut off this moment:

"Heyyyy- I still exist-"

She laughed at his immaturity. It reminded her of the one she has sometimes.

"Haha... Sorry Spain."

He dismissed her apology quickly and said instead:

"It's fine~ But tell me, how are you???"

"I'm fine-"

"No, but, how are you...? Reich... Well... He's in his other mood...? Did he hurt you somehow?"

She could see the worry in his voice and she smiled at that.

"I'm fine... In the beginning I was shocked, but he didn't hurt me too much."

"Ah... I'm glad..."

"And how are you?"

The two men looked confused at that question.

"Huh? I'm fine? Why are you asking?"

"Huh..." She wasn't going to tell him that she saw how Reich was angry at him for being late. "...Because I can also care for you. Can I not?"

The two men were surprised. But Spain's smile became wider.

"...Thank you for worrying then~!"

"Uhmm... I am happy to see you again Spain, but I have to go now. I hope you understand..."

"Of course! See you soon, guapa!"

"Uh yeah, yeah... Bye-"

She walked in the most normal way possible.
