Is this the apparel boutique you wanted to visit, An?
An
Yup! The storefront looked really cool, so I have a good feeling about it!
Akito
Oh, it's a boutique?
Just at first glance, they've got some nice stuff here.

Kohane
Okay, we'll be browsing this area.
Toya
Alright, we'll be back in a little bit.
An
Now then, since we're here, let's take a good look at what they have!
Kohane
Hehe. Okay.
An
Oh, look!
How awesome is this hoodie?

Kohane
Wow, it's cool how the logo looks like graffiti...
An
I know, right?! I wish I could pull off an outfit with something like this.
Kohane
I think it'd look really good on you, An!
An
Haha! Thanks!
Since I have the chance, I might just try it on.

An
See anything you like, Kohane?
Kohane
Umm...
Kohane
Oh, maybe the outfit on that mannequin...
Clerk
“Are you interested in this outfit, miss?”
Kohane
Huh? Umm...
“Yes, it looks very cool...”
“Yes, it looks very cool...”
Clerk
“You have a good eye.
This is a new one that we just got in today.”
This is a new one that we just got in today.”
Clerk
“Would you like to try it on?”
Kohane
“N-No, it wouldn't look good on me...!”
An
“I disagree, Kohane!
You should try it on!”
You should try it on!”
Clerk
“I agree! Who knows? You might just see yourself in a completely new light!”
Kohane
U-Uhh...
Kohane
“O-Okay. I'll try it on...!”
A few minutes later
Kohane
H-How do I look...?
An
Wow! You look amazing, Kohane!
Clerk
“You look really cool!!”
Kohane
“Th-Thank you...”
An
Oh, I know!
“Can I take a picture of her?”
“Can I take a picture of her?”
Clerk
“Yes, of course.”
Kohane
Wait, a picture...?
An
I wanna show Miku... I mean, I wanna show everyone that you're trying a new type of fashion!
An
So, say cheese!
Kohane
O-Okay...
Clerk
“Wait.”
Kohane
Huh?
Clerk
“I know just the pose that'll make you look super cool.”
Clerk
“First, do this with your hands. Bring this one out in front of your face like this. Here, give it a try.”
Kohane
W-Wait, that's the pose...
An
That's what rappers do when they yell, “Yo, check it!”
Clerk
“You're trying on a cool new look, so you need to strike a cool pose too.”
Kohane
“Oh... O-Okay...”
An
You can do it, Kohane!
Kohane
Y-Yo, check it...!
Clerk
“Hmm... Not bad. But you'll sound cooler if you project your voice a little more.”
Kohane
“What...?
But won't I bother the other customers...?”
But won't I bother the other customers...?”
Clerk
“Oh, you won't be bothering anyone.”
Kohane
“O-Okay...!”
Kohane
YO, CHECK IT!
An
Oh, Kohane, that was really cool!
Clerk
“That was perfect!”
Kohane
Hehe...
Akito
We were only gone for a second. What happened?
Toya
You two certainly seem to be enjoying yourselves.
Kohane
Y-Yeah, the clerk gave us some tips about fashion and...
Kohane

<Hi, Kohane!
What's America been like?>

Kohane
Oh, one of my friends just sent me a message...
Kohane
(She wants my advice...?
What could this be about?)
