Red Hot Baseball Game! Ep. 7

Mari

Aww… What a pity.

Nico

Yeah. It was so close…

Kanan

What're you two going on about over there?

Rin

Yeah. Mia's hit got us tied. Then we turned the game around in the extra inning and won in a landslide!

Mari

I know, but I wanted to see Mia's home run be a big game changer!

Nico

Yeah, we were so close to scoring. Doesn't that make you sad, Mia?

Mia

Not really. My goal was for our team to win, and since they did, I'm perfectly happy.

Nico

Gosh, you're stoic.

Shioriko

So you say, Mia, but weren't you working harder than anyone else today?

Mia

Uh! No, not really…

Kanan

You can try to hide it, but your hands give it all away.

Mari

Huh? What do you mean?

Rin

Oh, your hands are covered in blisters.

Nico

Yeah, and judging from where they are, they must have come from swinging the bat.

Mia

D-Don't look at my hands! Look, I wasn't trying that hard or anything. I was just upset that I couldn't hit anything during our practice session.

Shioriko

The return of your competitive streak, I see.

Mari

It's cute seeing you all embarrassed and trying to hide it.

Nico

For real. You're not being honest again, aren'tcha?

Mia

Hmph. Don't be ridiculous.

Mari

We're not being ridiculous. We really do think so.

Schoolgirl

Thank you all for everything today.

Kanan

No worries. I hope we were some help.

Schoolgirl

You were a huge help! We were thinking of going to grab a bite to eat after this. Would you like to join us?

Kanan

And that's what she said. What do you guys think?

Nico

Sounds great to me!

Rin

Yeah, my tummy's getting pretty rumbly.

Mari

All right. Shall we be on our way?

Mia

Hey, Shioriko. Thanks.

Shioriko

Hm? What for?

Mia

Honestly, I really didn't think I could do it. I'm not very athletic, after all.

Mia

But playing baseball turned out to be super fun. I wouldn't have learned that if you hadn't pushed me into trying it.

Shioriko

*Giggle* My pleasure. Now let's go, Mia.

Mia

Sure thing.
