[The time is still in the AM, but it's actually been a couple hours since Ken picked up the phone to make the call. There was a lot of punching Minato's number and setting it down, and at one point he almost just didn't. Maybe it would be better to just not say anything? In the end, though, at just a few minutes before eleven o'clock, he finally lets the phone ring.]

Hey Minato-san. I was wondering -- are you free today? I promised Koromaru I'd take him to the park in Heropa, and I thought he might like it if you came along.
