Dear God… Please grant my wish… Please, pleeease! I'm begging you!

Hmm? My, if it isn't Kasumin.

Augh! N-Nozomi?! Oh no, someone saw me! Why are you here?!

Why…? I help out here. What were you wishing for ever so fervently?

Ah, er, well…

Wait, I think I can guess. There's only one thing you'd wish for. You want to be cuter, right?

Whoa! How did you know?!

It's written all over that cute face of yours!

Oh? You think I'm cute? Hehe. Well, I am!

Mm-hmm! The gods of this shrine support those who work hard, so they might grant your wish.

Really? But I wished that they would make me the cutest in the entire world… Would they really grant that?

I see… Then how about we ask them?

What?! Ask them how? We're talking about gods here!

*Giggle* Don't worry about that. Just wait a moment.

[Fade in/out.]

(Whoa! All of a sudden everything feels different.)

…………

(The air is sparkling… Is this her spiritual power? Wow, Nozomi's so pretty… Hold on, get a grip! I'm the cutest and prettiest!)

*Cough* I apologize for the wait. Now listen closely, okay?

Y-Yes! Thank you for doing this!

The gods said, “Hard work is the key to your wish. Do your best to improve yourself!” I know you can do it, Kasumin!

What?! Isn't that clearly just your advice to me? God, come and save me!
