- -Story Tab-
- Nayuta
- Rabi-san must be out shopping. I think I'll go and surprise her...by helping carry the bags.
- -Challenge Tab-
- Chiharu
- Nayuta-chan's father is a folklorist... Then he really did...he encountered those strange incidents in the village when he was doing interviews...?
- -Ex Challenge Tab-
- Mikage
- Nayutan's home is pretty calming, huh. Sure would be nice if it stayed like this.
- =====1=====
- -Shopping District-
- Man
- Welcome, Rabi-san. We got some great vegetables here!
- Rabi
- ...Oh, I had heard that the cabbages didn't do well,
- but these have bright and healthy leaves, and the price itself is reasonable.
- Man
- I did my best to get this stock in.
- Though I was hoping to sell them for more...
- It's been raining so much that it's hard to get customers...
- Rabi
- That sounds rough. I'll buy two from you then.
- Man
- You mean it!? Two's pretty big though, you know?
- Rabi
- It's just a matter of coming up with different dishes to eat them before they spoil.
- Man
- I gotcha, thanks. I'll throw in some potatoes as a bonus.
- Old Lady
- Then how about some of our mackerel? Maybe some stir-fry with your cabbages?
- Man
- Fishmonger! Quit trying to piggyback off my sale!
- Rabi
- Mackerel...is good, but I think I'll get some cod.
- I'll make white fish poêlé with potatoes, cabbage, and cod.
- Man
- Never heard of a dish like that before~
- Old Lady
- You really are the second Nanami Yachiyo. Thank you for your continued support!
- Rabi
- What is that?
- Old Lady
- You don't know? Isn't that what everyone calls you?
- You're young, you're an excellent shopper, and you nee~eever miss your 10x points.
- Rabi
- What... I suppose I stand out a little.
- Young Man
- .....
- .....
- Nayuta's Voice
- Rabitaaan~
- Young Man
- ――っ!?
- .....
- Rabi
- Nayuta-sama, are you heading home now?
- Nayuta
- I am.
- I was wondering if you would be in the shopping district
- so I took a detour and bingo.
- I will help you with the shopping.
- Rabi
- If that is what you're up to, then I am glad to hear it.
- Taking one of these eco bags would be helpful.
- Nayuta
- Huhu, I'll carry it safely to the end!
- Rabi
- You're in quite a good mood.
- Nayuta
- Huhu, that is because I received my test back today and got a perfect score.
- And in math of all things! It's put me in a wonderful mood!
- Rabi
- You had told me you weren't that great at it.
- Congratulations.
- Nayuta
- Now I will surpass Touka.
- Rabi
- That will only turn the tables back on you, so I would recommend you refrain from that.
- I would prefer to not see my master utterly devastated by an elementary schooler.
- =====2=====
- -Home-
- Rabi
- Nayuta-sama, dinner is prepared.
- Nayuta
- Thank you!
- Rabi
- Let us eat.
- Nayuta
- Let us eat.
- Wah, this fish you cooked is incredibly delicious!
- Rabi
- It's poêlé.
- I got some cabbage, cod, and potatoes at a low price,
- so I chopped the potatoes and cabbage and sprinkled it with garlic...
- Nayuta
- I'm not sure I understood all of that just now.
- Rabi
- I can hardly believe this is coming from someone that got a 100%.
- Nayuta
- I would rather bask in the glow of those results for the rest of the day.
- Rabi
- I suppose that is inevitable, but I think you should keep it in moderation.
- Nayuta
- I swear on my hundred that I will celebrate in moderation.
- Rabi
- Haa... What can I say...
- Children and their parents can be so different, can't they?
- Otou-sama is so calm and collected.
- Nayuta
- Ah, that must have been a sigh of fatigue.
- It's fine, I am still a junior high school girl.
- There is no way I can have the same refined and cool character as Papa.
- Of course children and parents are different from one another.
- Rabi
- A difference in character...that's it. That may be the most accurate expression.
- But if you start measuring out character,
- then I would have to say Touka-sama is a genius.
- The character that Touka-sama exudes is in itself a different kind of character,
- one that is nearly on the same level as your Otou-sama, Nayuta-sama.
- Nayuta
- Oh, you were referring to Touka.
- Hmm, I'm not so sure about that anymore.
- Rabi
- I was teasing you since you're in such high spirits.
- Nayuta
- How terrible of you!
- And I don't approve of you saying that Touka and Papa are the same.
- They are nothing alike, and Touka would hate the thought of it as well.
- Rabi
- I retract my statement.
- Nayuta
- Now then, I would like to know your test results, Rabi-san.
- I know your school was testing at the same time.
- Rabi
- Why do you want to know that?
- Could it be that Nayuta-sama is the detestable type
- that only asks others about their score when she herself scored well?
- Nayuta
- Y-you're wrong.
- I just wanted us to show each other our scores like we were friends.
- Rabi
- Haa...
- Nayuta
- And only with this math score do I have the confidence that I have prevailed...
- Rabi
- So you do have a bit of a mean streak to your character after all, then?
- And I don't think there can be a concept of winning or losing when our schools and grades are both different,
- but here, take it.
- [*Rustle...*]
- Nayuta
- .....
- ――っ!?
- E-every subject...all hundreds...?
- S-such a thing is possible...?
- Rabi
- ...Once in a while.
- Nayuta
- .....
- [*Hair Flip...*]
- Nayuta
- Uu...! That makes me feel so insignificant...!
- =====3=====
- Rabi
- Good morning. Did you sleep well last night?
- Nayuta
- Yes, good morning to you. I had a 100% perfectly good sleep.
- Rabi
- I have some errands to run so I will be going to Minaminagi.
- Nayuta
- Alright.
- Rabi
- If something happens, please don't hesitate to call me.
- And if Mikage happens to come over, there are sweets up on the shelf.
- Nayuta
- Alright.
- Rabi
- Also, if you do happen to go out, please remember to lock up on your way out.
- Nayuta
- I've got it.
- I am not a child, so there is no need to repeat this every time.
- Rabi
- Forgive me, I should know better with a 100% scorer here.
- I'm off.
- Nayuta
- You're making fun of me...
- ...Now I can do this.
- While I have some time off, I want to investigate where Papa is and get everything I have organized.
- Mikage
- [Naaaayuuuutaaaan]
- Nayuta
- Ah, Mikage-san. Come in.
- Mikage
- Sorry for the intrusiooon.
- Huh? Where's Rabitan?
- Nayuta
- She is out running an errand.
- Mikage
- That soo...
- Nayuta
- But we do have some sweets ready.
- Mikage
- Really!? Yaaay!
- Nayuta
- Oh, what is that bag for?
- Mikage
- Ah, right, Mii has to do this.
- Nayuta
- Your homework for school?
- How nice of you to come into someone's home to eat their sweets and do your homework.
- Mikage
- It's not homework. It's papers for Mii's field trip.
- Nayuta
- Waa, that sound's so nostalgic to me. I used to go on field trips as well.
- Mikage
- We're going to lots of places, so Mii has to get ready,
- 'cause Mii's the group leader!
- Nayuta
- Another wave of nostaglia. I was a group leader.
- Though, I also didn't do well to prepare everything I needed.
- Mikage-san, does your school give a lot of work to the group leaders?
- Mikage
- Mii just likes doing it.
- The group leader's got to be reliable, right?
- Nayuta
- You're absolutely right.
- If the group leader does a poor job preparing, everything will be a mess once you get there.
- Mikage
- Yep!
- That's why Mii's gonna do her best so everyone can have lots of fuuun!
- Nayuta
- How wonderful! You're already fit to be a leader!
- .....
- -Flashback-
- Rabi
- I can hardly believe this is coming from someone that got a 100%.
- ---
- Rabi
- Haa... What can I say...
- Children and their parents can be so different, can't they?
- -End Flashback-
- Nayuta
- ...*Sniff*...
- Mikage
- Eh!? Nayutan!? What's wrong with you all of a sudden!?
- Nayuta
- Hearing you talk about this has just made me think of myself...!
- It is just as you said, Mikage-san:
- If the group leader is not reliable, the members won't have fun.
- And in this home, the group leader is...me...
- Mikage
- That's right, 'cause this is Nayutan's house.
- Nayuta
- But I am not reliable at all!
- In the first place, Rabi-san's official employer is Papa,
- and Rabi-san also admires Papa...
- -Flashback-
- Rabi
- Otou-sama is so calm and collected.
- -End Flashback-
- Nayuta
- Does Rabi-san really enjoy serving a person like me,
- does she have fun working as a servant...?
- No, I'm sure she finds no enjoyment in it.
- The way things are, Rabi-san must find living with me to be tormenting!
- -Flashback-
- Rabi
- A difference in character...that's it. That may be the most accurate expression.
- But if you start measuring out character,
- then I would have to say Touka-sama is a genius.
- -End Flashback-
- Nayuta
- Character!
- I need to attain the same calm and collected character as Papa...!
- Mikage
- Character...?
- Nayuta
- If I don't, I am certain Rabi-san's disdain for me will only grow,
- and this family will fall apart...!
- =====4=====
- Mikage
- Huh, so that's what you were thinking about.
- Nayuta
- A long time ago, Papa had gone to Rabi-san's hometown.
- Rabi-san was going through a difficult time back then,
- and it was Papa who saved her.
- Mikage
- So she feels like she owes him, then.
- Nayuta
- Since then, Rabi-san has had utmost respect for Papa,
- but I, his daughter, do not have character like him, so I feel awful.
- If I don't take on his ways, I will eventually become hated and lose this family.
- Mikage
- Mii doesn't really get anything about this...but it sounds hard.
- Nayuta
- For worrying about something you don't understand, "it sounds hard" is worth a 100.
- Mikage
- You think there's anyone in Mii's neighborhood that has character?
- Nayuta
- If there is anyone near you, Mikage-san...
- Onee-sama has a mature air about her.
- That may be one characteristic of hers.
- Mikage
- Nee-cha? Then why don't you go ask Nee-cha?
- Nayuta
- I think that is a good idea.
- I feel that it is better to consult someone older.
- Mikage
- I think she's at the adjuster shop right now, so Mii will watch the house.
- Nayuta
- Thank you very much. Then I will be going now.
- -Mitama's-
- Nayuta
- Excuse the disturbance.
- Mitama
- Oh my! Nayuta-chan! Thank you for always watching Mii.
- Nayuta
- Not at all, it is my pleasure.
- Mitama
- What brings you in today - adjustment?
- Nayuta
- No, there is something I must ask you about...
- Mitama
- Sure, whatever you want to talk about. I'll go make some tea.
- ---
- Nayuta
- ...That is what I had spoken to Rabi-san about yesterday...
- Mitama
- I see now. So you want to build character.
- Nayuta
- I don't know what I would if Rabi-san left the house.
- And we are so close in age, yet it is so difficult to get along with her.
- Mitama
- Hmm...unfortunately I'm not aware of it either myself.
- Nayuta
- Does character come naturally to you...?
- Mitama
- I've never heard of having character.
- I'm just a little mature • is • all.
- Sometimes people ask me "are you really 17?"
- Nayuta
- Eh!? You are 17 years old!?
- Mitama
- Ah, happened again...
- But, if I do have any character,
- maybe it's related to my mindset with working as an adjuster.
- Nayuta
- Your mindset as an adjuster...you say?
- Mitama
- This is something my sensei had told me,
- but to work as an adjuster, you need to be able to understand the minds of those you adjust
- and take care of them with broad-mindedness.
- Nayuta
- Broad-mindedness...I feel like I am getting closer to the word called character.
- (Papa was also tolerant of others.)
- S-so what did you do to accomplish that?
- Mitama
- I didn't really do anything special.
- If I had to say, I suppose just being kind and caring.
- If you're bad at this, you're going to have a hard time as an adjuster
- is what my sensei told me.
- Nayuta
- Kind and caring...
- Mature, composed character...
- So it's kind and caring broad-mindedness!
- =====5=====
- Mikage
- Ha - it's this late already.
- Nayuta
- Did you finish with all of your worksheets?
- Mikage
- Just a bit left, but Mii can finish it at home.
- Nayuta
- I see.
- Mikage
- Thanks Nayutan, see ya!
- Nayuta
- See you later.
- .....
- [*Shut*]
- Nayuta
- Ah...
- Rabi
- I have returned home.
- Nayuta
- Welcome home.
- Mikage-san just left.
- Rabi
- Just missed her?
- I suppose I was a little late getting home today.
- You must be hungry, so I will get dinner prepared shortly.
- Nayuta
- Thank you very much.
- .....
- (Rabi-san, I don't know what it is you did today,)
- (but you are such a hard worker to start the housework the moment you get home.)
- (You go to a school out of the city every day, studying to get perfect grades,)
- (and you work as a servant at 15 while also being a mahou shoujo...)
- (Aren't you working too much?)
- Rabi
- Is something the matter? Is there something on my face?
- Nayuta
- I-it is nothing...!
- Rabi
- Is that so.
- Nayuta
- (The more I think on it, the more I realize just how incredible Rabi-san is.)
- (But I am starting to get worried...)
- (It is possible she could collapse from overworking...)
- -Flashback-
- Mitama
- I didn't really do anything special.
- If I had to say, I suppose just being kind and caring.
- -End Flashback-
- Nayuta
- (That's right!)
- (If I do not show her how worried I am, my dream of building character will remain a dream.)
- Rabi-san!
- Rabi
- W-what is it?
- Nayuta
- I am giving you time off!
- Rabi
- Huh, why is that...?
- Nayuta
- Why...?
- (Because you are exhausted and work too hard?)
- (But to tell her that when she doesn't actually show any signs of it,)
- (she may feel I am sympathizing with her and see it as an insult instead.)
- (There must be another reason... Let's see, perhaps.....ah.)
- Next week is your 16th birthday, Rabi-san.
- Rabi
- ――っ!?
- So you knew.
- Nayuta
- I have had a look at your profile once before.
- I think it's fine for you to take a day off of work for your birthday.
- Rabi
- I see, so that's what this was about.
- I did make some plans for next week, so I am grateful for the time off.
- But, the housework on that day...
- Nayuta
- I will take care of it.
- Rabi-san, you can spend the whole day without worry.
- Rabi
- ...Then I will accept your offer. I'm looking forward to it.
- Nayuta
- (And in the meantime, I will prepare a cake, kusudama, and a present,) ¹
- (so I can hold a surprise party for you.)
- (This will be perfect! Such a nice idea!)
- (With this display of care from me to Rabi-san,)
- (I feel that my character is becoming more like Papa's.)
- (Rabi-san can work more comfortably)
- (and we can get along better, making this household happier and trouble-free.)
- (There will be no hate to cause us to drift apart.)
- =====6=====
- Rabi
- I'm about to leave, so you will be taking care of the housekeeping.
- I have not touched a thing today.
- Nayuta
- Of course, I wanted you to leave it all to me.
- Rabi
- I'm off.
- Nayuta
- Have a good day.
- And with that said...
- Now then, where do I begin...
- Hmm~, I don't know...
- If I am to get the night party prepared,
- I must finish all of the housework first.
- Mikage
- [Naaaayuuuutaaaan! Mii's here...for sweets and fuuun.]
- Nayuta
- I suppose there is no need to do it immediately.
- But you have come at a good time.
- Mikage
- Good time?
- ---
- Mikage
- Rabitan's birthday party!? Awesome! Mii can't wait!
- Nayuta
- Though...before that, I need to do the cleaning.
- But I have no idea what I am supposed to do...
- So...I was...about to start crying.
- Mikage
- Sure, got it. Mii'll give you a hand!
- Nayuta
- You have my thanks!!
- Mikage
- Hmm, so the first thing we do is... The laundry, huh.
- Nayuta
- What does that entail?
- Mikage
- We have to hang them out to dry while Mr. Sun is still out.
- Nee-cha and Mama do that in the morning.
- Nayuta
- I'm pretty certain Rabi-san does that while she does the vaccuming as well.
- Then I shall just start the washing machine...
- .....
- What exactly must I do with this machine?
- Mikage
- Ah, Mii can do it. Mii's done this a few times at home.
- ..... This thing's totally different from the one at home!
- There's no button!
- Nayuta
- Then...perhaps we operate it using this monitor.
- Rabi-san did say it can also be operated using a smartphone.
- Mikage
- The rich lady's version!
- Nayuta
- I do not think they would sell it in such an offensive way like that...
- Mikage
- Mii doesn't wanna touch something weird and break the thing, but...
- Ei-
- Uwa, a whole bunch of courses popped up...
- Nayuta
- Each course can either be 40℃ or 60℃...
- Mikage
- Mii doesn't know what any of this means...it's scary...
- Is there a "regular course" or a "normal person's course" somewhere...
- Nayuta
- If there is one this would be quite a rude washing machine...
- Mikage
- .....
- Nayuta
- .....
- Mikage
- ...What do we do?
- If Mii touches something weird and it breaks, Mii can't pay for it, you know?
- It might get put on the wrong mode and ruin all of your clothes...
- Nayuta
- ...I just found a nice board.
- We can use this with a bucket of detergent in the garden...
- Mikage
- Hand washing!? Mii's only seen that in old stories!
- Plus the detergent would be bad on my hands...
- Nayuta
- ...I don't want this to be a terrible experience for you, Mikage-san.
- ...I suppose there is no choice but to do this:
- We will go to a coin-operated laundromat that has a washing machine you are capable of using.
- Mikage
- Guess we have to...
- It's a waste to not use such a nice washing machine that you have, but...
- =====7=====
- Nayuta
- Huu... We managed to finish the laundry.
- But that took a long time.
- Mikage
- Time...?
- Eh, it's already noon!?
- Mii's only ever done laundry in the morning...
- Nayuta
- Rabi-san runs the washing machine and finishes cleaning before she hangs them out to dry.
- But we only managed this...
- Mikage
- Ah, that's it,
- it's because we waited so long at the laundromat...
- Nayuta
- And there is still the cleaning and getting the party ready,
- neither of which have been started.
- I also need to prepare the cake and the kusudama.
- There is so much work left to do.
- Mikage
- Also, we haven't even eaten lunch!
- Nayuta
- Since I have help with me I can't just decide to skip lunch...
- But if I don't, there will not be enough time, therefore I must eat and clean at the same time.
- Mikage
- Nayutan, can you cook?
- Nayuta
- It is something I have seldom done.
- Mikage
- What will you make?
- Nayuta
- We have emergency cups of yakisoba, so I will go prepare those.
- Mikage
- Wonder if we would've had real yakisoba if Rabitan was here...
- Nayuta
- Mu!
- Comparing cup yakisoba to real yakisoba
- is as foolish as comparing me to Touka!
- They are two completely different things to eat at different times. This is the one I want!
- Mikage
- Then Mii will do the cleaning until they're ready.
- Nayuta
- Ah, please do so.
- [*Clatter!*]
- Mikage
- Kyaa!?
- Nayuta
- What's wrong!?
- Mikage
- Sorry, Nayutan, a bucket just fell...
- Nayuta
- What would a bucket be doing in a place like this...?
- Oh, that is the bucket I was going to hand-wash the laundry with...
- I forgot to put it away, that is my fault.
- Let me wipe it with a towel first...
- [*Slip*]
- [*Thud!*]
- [*Rattle rattle...*]
- Mikage
- Nayutan!? You alright!?
- Nayuta
- Ouch... I fell on my bottom...
- Mikage
- Water got mixed with the detergent, didn't it...? So it ended up slippery...
- Nayuta
- It would be best if we avoid this area until it dries.
- Mikage
- Yeah, we should...
- ...We're not really getting anywhere, huh...
- Nayuta
- The situation is only getting worse.
- If Rabi-san were to the see the place in such a state-
- Rabi
- I'm seeing it.
- Nayuta
- .....
- =====8=====
- Rabi
- I see, I understand now. That this was a big mistake after all.
- I know you were doing it for my sake, but I'm not too happy about this
- so I will be scolding you.
- Nayuta
- Yes...
- Mikage
- A scolding? Eh, Mii too...?
- Rabi
- That's right, you are in trouble, so please sit there.
- Rabi
- If you do not understand something, you should be asking first.
- You don't do any of this on a regular basis, so of course you would have no idea.
- Even before, when you were overjoyed with your perfect score,
- you would get too distracted at times, Nayuta-sama.
- The same holds true when you look for Otou-sama. You need to pay more attention to your surroundings.
- Because when you don't do that, you don't see where you're going,
- and you end up spilling a bucket.
- Mikage
- But that was Mii's fa-
- Rabi
- Mikage-san, that is admirable of you, but in a situation like this the responsibility falls on Nayuta-sama...
- Nayuta
- I'm sorry...
- Mikage
- I'm sorry...
- Rabi
- Okay, it seems you two have reflected on your actions, so the scolding is over.
- Nayuta
- Then I must ask, why have you returned, Rabi-san?
- Rabi
- I still had some spare time, so I came back for lunch.
- Also, I was worried about how you might be, Nayuta-sama.
- Nayuta
- Oh my... You have no confidence in me.
- Rabi
- Coming back here like I normally would was the right thing to do, but...
- Well, let's all start cleaning this up.
- Nayuta
- Eh!? Rabi-san, what about your plans for this afternoon?
- Rabi
- I will give up the rest of my time off, of course. Half of a day was plenty of rest for me.
- Nayuta
- .....
- I...don't want that...
- Rabi
- Don't want it...? Understood.
- There is nothing I can do if you do not approve of it. I will leave the cleaning to you.
- Nayuta
- Ho...
- ---
- Nayuta
- Now Rabi-san has taken her leave again.
- We can get back to cleaning and preparing the party.
- Mikage
- Yeah, let's do iiit!
- =====9=====
- Nayuta
- The cleaning is finished.
- Mikage
- Now all that's left is getting the party set!
- Nayuta
- I will go make the kusudama.
- Mikage
- ...Nayutan, you've been saying you'll make a kusudama for a while now,
- but why kusudama?
- Nayuta
- This is a celebration after all, so I want to make something showy.
- Rabi-san will pull it, it cracks open,
- and a message of "congratulations" pops out from the inside...
- Just imagining it is filling me with excitement.
- Mikage
- Excitement...?
- -Imagination-
- Rabi
- Ei-
- Mikage
- Rabitan, congratulations~
- -End Imagination-
- Mikage
- It sounds exciting for sure...!
- Nayuta
- Then I will begin right away.
- I need to get two plastic colanders.
- Mikage
- You're using colanders?
- Nayuta
- I am.
- You can put them together and then crack it open.
- I was surprised you could use them in such a way.
- Like this, you just have to thread it through the holes in the colander...
- Mikage
- Ah, so that's how you stick 'em together!
- And just like that the colanders are the real thing.
- Nayuta
- These cooking utensils were made to become handmade kusudama.
- Mikage
- What should Mii do?
- Nayuta
- You have such cute handwriting, Mikage-san, so I would like you to write the banner.
- Mikage
- On it. It's "congratulations," right?
- Nayuta
- I have sets of paper, caligraphy pens, and stationary over on the desk there.
- Mikage
- Maybe this one.
- Ah - this awesome origami is golden...it's the rich lady's version.
- Nayuta
- It is just gold-colored.
- I'm not attached to my money. I am not an ojou-sama character.
- ---
- Nayuta
- Now we just roll the banner up, tape these both shut, and...
- Nayuta & Mikage
- Complete!
- .....
- Mikage
- ...Wow, we really did it.
- Nayuta
- I can hardly believe it myself.
- I thought we would mess up in the middle of making it, following our slapstick pattern...
- Mikage
- Mii too...
- Ah!?
- Nayuta
- There was something after all; what's wrong!?
- Mikage
- What do we do about the baking? The cake...we don't have enough time...
- Nayuta
- I want you to relax.
- When it comes to cooking, I don't have any skill whatsoever, so time is no matter.
- Mikage
- That's supposed to make me relax!?
- Nayuta
- Our story is still being written.
- It was a little expensive, but I sent for a delivery.
- I will have a delicious dinner and a cake prepared using my spending money.
- Mikage

- Rabi-san, congratulations on your 16th birthdaaay~
- Mikage
- Congratulations~!
- Rabi
- This is...what they call a surprise party...
- You prepared all of this just for me?
- That means, I helped you set this up... Huhu...amazing.
- Thank you very much. I'm overjoyed.
- Mikage
- Ah, Rabitan's laughing!
- Nayuta
- We successfully surprised you.
- Now then, Rabi-san, go wash those hands and rinse your mouth and we'll get to the eating.
- A cake is waiting for you.
- Rabi
- That's right, I will go get ready.

- Rabi
- Ohh, this is...! Such a fine kusudama.
- Nayuta
- I tried my best with making it.
- Mikage
- Mii also helped out.
- Rabi
- Yes, both of you worked so hard.
- To be honest, I thought your cleaning work was only worth a 10%,
- but not after seeing the significance of what you were doing.
- All of this care and thoughtfulness...
- You really are the daughter of "the otou-sama."
- Nayuta
- ――っ!?
- ...Yes! Yes, you're right!
- Mikage
- All's well that ends well, huh!
- Rabi
- That's a great phrase for you to know. That is quite right.
- Huhu, having such a wonderful birthday has left me beyond joyous.
- Mikage
- Rabitan's so cute.
- Nayuta
- Here, Rabi-san, take the string.
- Rabi
- Thank you very much. I just have to pull this, right?
- Here we go... This is the finale.
- Ei-

- Rabi
- .....
- Nayuta
- ――っ!?
- It fell without breaking open!? I must have mistaken the strength of the tape!
- Mikage
- And on top of the cake, too...
- Rabi
- .....
- [*Snap snap snap...*]
- Mikage
- What's that sound?
- Nayuta
- Almost as if something is burning...
- AH!!
- The fire on the candle - it's burning the kusudama's origami!
- Mikage
- Ehh!?
- Rabi
- .....Ha! That is dangerous, the shock made me lose my senses for a moment...
- I will pour water on it at once.
- [*Splash*]
- Nayuta
- Ah...
- Rabi
- I never imagined a day would come where I would pour water over my own birthday cake...
- Mikage
- Rabitan...
- Nayuta
- .....I am terribly sorry.
