Nakama in Mirai

"A pleasure to make your acquaintance. I feel like this is an excellent opportunity for me, It would be my honor to accept your request" Kaiichi waited eagerly for his food but it was taking a while. Instead of letting the moments pass in awkward silence, Kaiichi in the spirit of ridding the setting of awkwardness was about to begin to ask questions to learn more about her. If he was lucky, he could earn some brownie points. The young woman in front of him was attractive (naturally) and it couldn't hurt to get to know her better. He stretched and leaned back, sipping on both the tea (when the waiter finally came) and some of the water. It tasted sweet. he was about to speak when the moment was abruptly disrupted by a waitress from behind Hotori slipping on some substance he did not see - successfully splashing water all over him and his associate. He sat in stunned silence unsure of what to do next. Does he try to end his suffering and pardon himself for a few minutes or bravely sit stalwart, not moving? Both failed, as when it happened he burst out laughing. Nothing wrong with having a good laugh at unfortunate events. Getting upset would just make negative emotions worse and escalate. It occurred to him then, what she was thinking? She also sat in stunned silence.
