Shopping Street

RaikaSee you later, ma'am~!

RaikaSorry, Shizuku! I've been stopping to talk to so many people.

ShizukuWhy are you apologizing? It's amazing that someone stops to talk to you every few steps.

RaikaIt's not amazing. Everyone's just so nice!

RaikaOh, here it is! This is the store I wanted to visit today!

ShizukuThey sell toys, clothes, and books here too... What kind of store is this?

RaikaHmm, a store that has a little bit of everything! I guess you'd call it a variety store. They have unusual snacks too, so I'm sure you'll like it, Shizuku!

ShizukuOh...!

RaikaI knew you were excited! Want to buy lots of snacks?

ShizukuYes. But did we come all this way just to buy snacks?

RaikaHehe... Actually, there's another reason we came~♪ My Family love might even make you cry, Shizuku!

RaikaToday's main event is...! Drumroll, please! We're buying matching cups for the Familyyy!!

ShizukuBut don't we already have plenty of cups at the dorm?

RaikaThe ones we're using now were handed down from Granny and others, right? So I thought it would be nice to have some that are ours!

RaikaMatching cups will make Family meals twice as fun! And they'll bring us even closer together!

ShizukuI see. Then let's buy cups for everyone.

RaikaMm-hmm! Come on, Shizuku! Let's find the perfect cups for our Family!

RaikaHey, Shizuku, what about these!? They're shaped like crowns! Isn't that fun?

ShizukuYes. It looks like we'd need to practice not spilling when we drink from them.

RaikaThat's true...! Then what about the others... Oh, look!

RaikaThere's one with a serious-looking face, and one shaped like a muscular body! Those are fun too, aren't they?

ShizukuThat face... It looks like a portrait of Beethoven.

RaikaOh, really? Do you like him, Shizuku?

ShizukuI've played his music often... But I'm not sure whether I like him or not.

RaikaI see... So, Shizuku, which cup do you like?

ShizukuWhat I like...

ShizukuI'm sorry. I still don't know which one I should choose.

RaikaYou don't have to say sorry! And you don't have to choose right now.

RaikaWe'll take our time finding the things you can say "I like," Shizuku.

ShizukuYes... Thank you.

RaikaBut I really, really want matching cups...! Shizuku, which would you pick: the serious-looking face or the muscular body?

ShizukuYou mean which one would suit the Family better...?

RaikaWhichever one stands out to you, Shizuku! Even if you don't love it, just pick the one you think is kind of nice!

ShizukuI...

Shizuku...

RaikaTh-That's your face when you don't know how to answer~!

ShizukuSorry I couldn't help. What if we choose them with everyone next time?

RaikaYeah... Maybe that's best!

RaikaBut before we go, let's check out the snack aisle!

Shizuku! Oh, yes...!
