Let's Meet under That Tree Ep. 3
Karin
*Sigh* It's so nice and warm here. I probably sound like Kanata, but I kind of feel like taking a nap…
Ruby
We're back!
Karin
Welcome back. What's that? Wow, that's a lot of flowers. Did you pick them?
Hanayo
Yeah. We found a lot of white clover growing over there.
Ruby
I thought maybe I'd make a flower crown.
Karin
Wow, that brings back memories.
Ruby
Want to make one too, Karin?
Karin
Sure. It sounds fun.
Hanayo
I haven't done this in a long time. I hope it turns out okay.
Karin
Same for me. This seems like it's in your wheelhouse, Ruby.
Ruby
Not really… But I recently made flower crowns with You to go with our costumes.
Hanayo
Hey, can you show me how to make one?
Ruby
Okay! You overlap the flowers like this, and then wrap the stem around. Keep repeating the process to make it longer and longer.
Karin
Overlap the flowers, then wrap the stems… Like so?
Ruby
Wow! You're good at this, Karin!
Hanayo
It's true. That's really pretty.
Karin
Thank you. I used to make these a lot when I was little, so I guess I have some muscle memory.
Karin
I'd have little competitions with my friends to see who could make the longest chain and stuff.
Hanayo
You did? That's sort of unexpected.
Karin
It is?
Hanayo
Oh, sorry. It's just that I'd never imagined you being a little girl who did the same sorts of things.
Karin
What do you mean by that? Of course I was!
Ruby
I thought the same thing. You're so fashionable and stylish, and you act like a grown-up. It's kinda hard to picture you as a little kid.
Karin
*Giggle* I used to pick flower petals to tell my fortune as a kid, too. Like, will I get the toy I want? Or, will I have my favorite snack today? Stuff like that.
Hanayo
*Giggle* That's adorable.
Ruby
What would you ask about for your fortune now, Karin?
Karin
Now? Hmm, let me think. Something about school idols, maybe? Actually, scratch that. I don't feel brave enough to find out my fortune for that.
Ruby
Not brave enough?
Karin
Yeah. If my fortune is bad, I don't know if I could recover. That's how much I love being a school idol. *Giggle* I'm getting mushy.
