Satomi Sakayama

Saitomi Sakayama (敏海 榮山) is Mademoiselle Phoebe’s lady’s companion and follows her around all the time. She is the protagonist of Volume 3, Chapter 6.

Appearance
Satomi is a girl of average height with dark brown hair and dark brown eyes. She is often seen wearing a dark indigo yukata with floral print and a white obi. Her hair is dark brown with bangs. She wears her hair in a bun when she wears the yukata and when she is doing an activity with Phoebe, such as biking, Satomi wears her hair in a ponytail and yoga paints with a plain short sleeved shirt. On special occasions, Satomi wears a black kimono with swirl print on it and a gold colored obi.

Personality
Satomi is a very kind girl who never stops working toward her goals. She is not strict and never shies away from doing new things. Satomi likes dressing Phoebe up in yukatas as she fancies matching outfits between the two. She enjoys boating on the lakes and enjoys taking boating trips as well. She likes exploring places far away and going deeper into the town on roads she’s never been on before. Satomi loves taking Phoebe along with her. She is a very upbeat person and never denies a little adventure. She loves rollercoasters and loves her life and will do anything to make it the same for Phoebe. Satomi sees that Phoebe sometimes has a hard life that she wishes she could get out of. Satomi noticeably feels bad for Phoebe and wishes she could save her, as stated in her own chapter that she wishes Phoebe could be able to forgive people, especially Phoebe’s mother. However, it does seem as though Satomi understands to some degree that Phoebe just wants to graduate elementary school and the long wait is what is holding her back. Other than that, Satomi wishes a life of loving kindness for everyone in the world.

Story
Satomi showed up to PPA without any clothes on. She asked if they could give her a shirt and a skirt so that she could at least be able to wear something. Satomi had come on a day that Phoebe was at the school, so of course the student council were pretty annoyed by Satomi’s prescence. But when Phoebe saw her, she requested that everyonce wash Satomi’s hair and give her nice clothes. The cleaning committee washed Satomi’s hair and gave her a PPA uniform shirt and skirt, but Phoebe claimed that Satomi should wear nice clothes because she looked like the type that everyone would like, so she should dress well too. Phoebe had an indigo yukata handmade out of cotton with floral print. She also handmade a white obi to go along with it. For the final touch, Phoebe made sandals and presented Satomi with the outfit. Satomi was amazed and ending up making a handmade yukata for Phoebe in return.

That weekend, Satomi and Phoebe hung out together and Phoebe said that she was in need of a lady’s companion. Satomi said that she would love to become Phoebe’s lady’s companion and said that she could make all kinds of yukatas and kimonos for her and everyone else in Phoebelandia. Phoebe was utterly flattered, and since she liked Satomi, she accepted. Satomi signed all the required papers and was officially Phoebe’s lady’s companion.

After becoming her lady’s companion, Phoebe told Satomi something that most people didn’t know. Phoebe’s mom was very mean to her once and Phoebe felt as if she could never forgive her mom for being so cruel. Since the incident happened 2 years prior to Satomi becoming Phoebe’s lady’s companion, Satomi believed Phoebe’s feelings to be intense since she held onto them for such a long time. Phoebe then confessed that she hated her so called mother since the day because she could never find a way to forgive her since her mom had been so mean even after what happened. Satomi understood but wanted Phoebe to forgive her mom so that everything could be right again.
