Umi #314: When You Think of Fall

Hanayo

Umi, I have a question. When you think of fall, what comes to mind?

Umi

That's sudden. But I think I'd have to say fall sports.

Umi

That's usually when archery tournaments are coming up, so everyone pushes themselves even harder.

Hanayo

No, no, no, that's not what I mean.

Umi

It's not? Then was that the wrong answer?

Hanayo

You were right, but it wasn't the answer I'm looking for.

Umi

What do you mean by that?

Hanayo

Don't worry about it. Other than sports, what are some other fall favorites?

Umi

Hmm, fall reading? Nights start getting longer in fall, but the cool and quiet mood makes it easy to lose yourself in a good book.

Umi

That reminds me, I read a very interesting book the other day. I can lend it to you if you'd like.

Hanayo

Huh? Oh, yeah, thanks. But that isn't the answer either!

Umi

That was wrong too?! Is this some sort of riddle?

Hanayo

It's not that hard, I promise. It's more along the lines of…

Hanayo

Eggplants, and matsutake mushrooms, and mackerel pike… You know, yummy stuff!

Umi

Are you talking about a fall feast?

Hanayo

You got it! I knew you could, Umi!

Umi

If you give someone that many hints, anyone could figure it out. So what was the point behind the quiz?

Hanayo

Heh heh heh. Well, you see, as a reward for guessing correctly you are now invited to a fabulous event!

Umi

Fabulous event? How is it connected to that question?

Hanayo

Never mind that, just leave your weekend open. See you!

Umi

Uh, Hanayo, where are you going? Please answer my question!
