A Chaotic Fireworks Show Ep. 3
Yoshiko
Heed me, my minions! Tonight, bouquets of fire will blossom in the skies of Numazu. Join Yohane in admiration of the transient splendor that ignites the summer skies!
Karin
Only you would describe a fireworks show like that, Yoshiko.
Hanamaru
Mmm! I smell yakisoba, takoyaki, crepes… There are so many different kinds of foods, zura!
Kanata
I promised Kasumi that I'd bring back a souvenir for her. What should I get?
Hanayo
I haven't eaten since last night so that I can eat my fill at lots of stalls! I wanna eat everything!
Nico
Nothing since last night?! No wonder you've had that vacant stare since we left.
Hanamaru
I brought all of my saved-up gift money for tonight, zura. I should ask my grandma to break my bills—
Hanamaru
WH-WHAAAT?! M-My wallet is empty, zura!
Yoshiko, Hanayo, Nico, Kanata
What?!
Hanamaru
H-How could this be… I had my money when I left the house! What do I do?! I… I can't buy anything at the stalls tonight like this, zura!
Hanayo
Oh no! That's terrible, we've got to look for it… Do we tell the police? Should you call home? I-I don't know what to do first…
Yoshiko
How do only the contents of a wallet mysteriously disappear? It must be the doing of something supernatural! I sense danger upon all of us!
Karin
Stay calm, you guys. I'm sure it'll be all right. Hanamaru, check your drawstring purse carefully.
Hanamaru
O-Okay… Huh? Oh! My money is in here, zura!
Karin
I noticed that when you took out your wallet, its clasp was open.
Nico
If you knew that, then you should've just said so!
Karin
I was about to, but then everyone started panicking.
Hanamaru
I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to cause a panic!
Kanata
It's okay. I'm glad that you didn't lose it or forget it somewhere.
Yoshiko
It's time to get excited again! To the fireworks—
Yoshiko
Gaahh!
Hanamaru, Hanayo, Nico, Kanata, Karin
Yoshiko!
Karin
Yikes, that was dangerous. Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?
Yoshiko
I-I'm okay, but…
Hanamaru
Oh… The strap on your sandal broke, zura!
Nico
Let me see it. I think if I take a handkerchief and pull it through the hole, then tie it up… There.
Hanayo
Whoa! That's amazing, you fixed it! You know how to fix sandal straps, Nico?
Nico
You could say that. Cocoa had something similar happen to her, so that's when I learned how to fashion a quick fix.
Yoshiko
Thanks… Sorry about your handkerchief.
Nico
Don't look so glum. It's patched up for now, but that's just a temporary fix. If you thrash around it might come off again, so you'd better be careful.
Yoshiko
I-I'm not going to “thrash around”!
Karin
That settles that matter, then. You guys really liven things up when you're around!
Kanata
Yeah. I didn't think that this sort of thing really happened.
Karin
What sort of thing?
Kanata
A sandal strap breaking just as you are about to go somewhere… Isn't there a superstition about that? Maybe something will happen.
