Umi #16: Nervous First Date
Umi
Now that said, I was just thinking up the lyrics for our new song.
Player
Feelings when you're going on a date, huh? That's pretty tough.
Umi
Indeed. When I started thinking about a date, I found myself stuck on what we would do, and where.
Player
You know, that's a good point. There's probably a lot of types of dates out there. Like, going shopping, seeing a movie, or going on a walk…?
Umi
True. Or, eating crepes together.
Player
Crepes?! Umi, that might be a brilliant idea!
Umi
Huh? Are crepes just a thing you do on dates?!
[Fade in/out.]
Umi
We… We actually came to the crepe shop.
Player
Yeah! This is going to be our first date.
Umi
Huh? Us, on a date? A date?!
Player
What's wrong, Umi?
Umi
Er, nothing. We may be calling this a date, but I'm doing this to study for later.
Player
Umi, which crepe would you like?
Umi
Ah, hold on a moment!
[Fade in/out.]
Umi
So, there's plenty of different types of crepes. This is good to know.
Player
There's so much cream, chocolate, and almonds. I've never had a crepe this good!
Umi
Yeah! The chocolate isn't too sweet, either, so I could eat this whole thing.
Player
Ah!
Player
(There's some cream on Umi's cheek!)
Player
Hey, um, Umi.
| Option 1: “Hold still a second.” |
|---|
| Player Can you hold still for a second? Umi Eep?! Wh-Why did you touch my cheek?! Did… Did you have some kind of reason?! Player There was some cream on your cheek. Sorry for just touching it. Umi That's it? I thought my heart would burst! Player I scared you that much? I'm so sorry! Umi Oh, please, don't apologize. I feel like it was a valuable experience. |
| Option 2: “You've got cream on your cheek.” |
| Player Hey, there's cream on your cheek. Umi S-Sorry! I can't believe I've been so unsightly. I'll wipe it off right away. |
[Fade in/out.]
Umi
Thank you very much for today.
Umi
That was such a fun day. No, fun date, I should say.
Umi
Being out with you, it struck me. Maybe a date doesn't change by what you do, or where.
Player
Huh?!
Player
(Then that was today's outing?)
Umi
Oh. No, I didn't mean it in a bad way. What I think is, it's important who you go with.
Umi
I'm really glad I was able to go on a date with you today.
Player
Umi! I feel the same way.
Umi
And, um. Well, it was my first date.
Player
R-Really? Your first? Th-That's embarrassing!
Umi
If it's all right with you… Would you go on a date with me again?
Player
Yes, of course!
Player
(That date with Umi was so fun!)
