Mia #579: Japanese Fall Sweets
Mia
Hmmm. Which dessert should I get?
Player
It seems like right now is the time when lots of limited-time sweet-potato paste treats are available to try.
Mia
You're right. This limited-time sweet-potato platter caught my eye, but I wanna try the matcha parfait too.
Player
Then why don't I order one of those? That way, we can share both.
Mia
Wait, really?
Player
Sure. Looking at the menu just made me want to try both of them. Shall we?
Mia
If you're okay with it, then sure, Little Baby.
Player
That's settled then! I'll go and order.
[Fade in/out.]
Mia
Amazing! The sweet potatoes are so glossy and shiny with honey! And the sweet potato paste is gorgeous. Such a rich, golden color!
Player
Right! It's just as much of a treat for the eyes. I'm glad we came here.
Mia
Hey, let me try some of that parfait.
Player
Sure. Here you go!
Mia
Thanks. This looks great. *Chomp*
Mia
This rules too! Whoa, even the matcha parfait has sweet potato mixed into it.
Player
Yes. The slightly bitter taste of the matcha goes so well with the sweetness of the sweet potato!
Mia
Japan just keeps bringing out delicious food by the bucketload.
Player
Hey, Mia?
Option 1: “I'll wipe away the paste by your mouth for you.” |
---|
Player There's some paste left on your mouth. I'll wipe it for you. Mia Huh?! H-Hey, wait! |
Option 2: “There's some paste stuck to your lips.” |
Player There's some paste stuck to your lips. Mia What?! Are you kidding?! Where?! |
Player
Just sit still. There, all clean.
Mia
I-I can clean that up by myself! Don't treat me like a little kid!
Player
I didn't mean to—oh, oh no! The matcha parfait is melting! We'd better hurry up and eat it!
Mia
Hey now, you have ice cream all over your hands. Use this to wipe them off.
Player
Ahaha… Thank you. I was so flustered that I didn't notice at all.
Mia
Geez. Now it's impossible to tell which of us is older.
Mia
Anyway, here. Eat up some of the platter that I ordered too, Little Baby.
Player
Thanks! Every treat on your platter looks so tasty, it's hard to pick just one.
Mia
*Laugh* You look so pleased about it! Seriously, which one of us is older here?
