Maki #23: Who's the Child Here?
Nico
All right, Maki, can you finely chop the onions?
Nico
Wait, have you even done that before?
Maki
I probably haven't.
Nico
I'll do it first, so take a good look.
Maki
Got it. Sorry, I can't do anything, even though I said I'd help.
Nico
Everyone's got to start somewhere. Of course you can't cook when you're just starting out.
Nico
I'm just really happy you wanted to cook for my family.
Maki
Thank you.
Nico
You can take your time, and you can make the fine chops a little big if you need to.
Nico
Just make sure you don't hurt yourself, all right? We can't have that happening to you.
Nico
You wouldn't be able to play our songs anymore… And what's worse…
Maki
What's worse?
Nico
Your fingers are really beautiful.
Maki
Wh–!
Maki
Th-That doesn't make any sense!
Nico
What? That's what I should say! What are you complaining for?
Maki
I'm not complaining, but…
Maki
Hey, Nico, did you really think my fingers were beautiful?
Nico
L-Look, I didn't mean anything deep by it.
Nico
Anyway, enough chit-chat, let's get to work! Keep your eyes on me!
Maki
All right, got it.
[Fade in/out.]
Maki
*Sigh* Can't win with Nico.
