Higuchi: well, should I bring a gift? And should I pay for the bill?
Hirotsu: hm. do you think she'll bring a gift, if so, i would bring one. Offer to pay the bill and if she says she got it, let her pay.
Higuchi: well, she'll probably bring a gift, but what do I get her?
Hirotsu: what does she like?
Higuchi: hmm...she likes books and nature. I could give her one of my parents old books?
