What's wrong with her? He's a friend-- she shouldn't be frightened of him! She feels her muscles tense, she feels that sense of unease, that sense of dread at the feeling of a figure looming over her...
...it's frustrating. She's not like this, she knows, she shouldn't be like this, and the fact that she can't shake it off makes her want to cry. But that'll make things worse, right?
When he gets back, she's sitting where she was, though there's a small parcel in her lap. She makes herself smile at him.] Thanks, Ryuji.
You didn't have to get me anything, though! I'm okay. [She is so very obviously not.]
