Manaka's reply had certainly been meant as a joke, but nonetheless, she couldn't help but be curious about Walter's request. With the way Walter was, his terse message could signify something serious — or he could just want to give her another gift, like when he had given her Snickerdoodle. And while she certainly preferred curiosity to the ennui of perfect certainty, the possibility that something could be wrong nagged at her the entire way to his door.

I'll be there soon. (ゝڡ◕๑)و☆
