1

Shizuku

Listen

Okay, are you watching?
2

Shizuku

Listen

After you've made your petal, you pull your needle and thread all the way through the back...
3

Shizuku

Listen

And then, you tie the top part down by making a little hoop. This is called a “lazy daisy stitch”.
4

Haruka

Listen

Oh, that's really cute. It looks like a little droplet.
5

Shizuku

Listen

By repeating this process, you can make a whole flower. You can even use this to make leaves.
6

Shizuku

Listen

The key is to sew slowly and gently so that your petal keeps its shape.
7

Mafuyu

Listen

Okay, I'll give it a try.
8

Shizuku

Listen

(Asahina and Haruka seem so focused.)

Shizuku

Listen

(I'm glad that they're both enjoying embroidery this much.)
10

Shizuku

Listen

(Still...)
11

Shizuku

Listen

(I can faintly hear somebody playing the trumpet...)
12

Shizuku

Listen

(Practicing during lunch like this means they must be very committed...)
13

Shizuku

Listen

(I can hear laughter from outside too...)
14

Shizuku

Listen

(It sounds like a fun conversation. They must be having lunch together...)
15

Shizuku

Listen

(Somehow, time seems to be flowing at such a gentle pace...)
16

Haruka

Listen

Having fun?
17

Shizuku

Listen

Huh...?
18

Haruka

Listen

You seem to be really enjoying yourself, is all.
19

Shizuku

Listen

This moment in time just feels so idyllic.
20

Shizuku

Listen

Everybody seems to be enjoying their lunch break the way they like, and I'm getting to share my hobby with my friends.
21

Shizuku

Listen

As a student of this school, I feel incredibly privileged to enjoy such a lovely day.
22

Haruka

Listen

As a student of this school...
23

Shizuku

Listen

Yes. I know what I'm saying isn't all that profound, but somehow, it hit me so deeply just now.
24

Haruka

Listen

I think I know what you mean.
25

Haruka

Listen

We haven't been able to relax much, since we're constantly practicing our singing and dancing, as well as coming up with stream ideas. Being an idol means a lot of busy hours.
26

Haruka

Listen

So it's important to cherish these peaceful, quiet moments.
27

Mafuyu

Listen

My experience of it might be a little different from yours, but I do think it's important to have some time to switch off, as it were.
28

Mafuyu

Listen

It's easy to overwhelm yourself if you get a little too focused on studying.
29

Shizuku

Listen

You've felt the same way, Asahina?
I didn't know we shared that.
30

Mafuyu

Listen

Hehe. It happens to me all the time. Sometimes I feel like not a single thing more will fit inside my head.
31

Mafuyu

Listen

But when that happens, I take a break and think slowly back on what I've learned.
32

Mafuyu

Listen

By doing so, I give myself a chance to process that information and begin comprehending it.
33

Haruka

Listen

Yes, it is important to know your own limits.
34

Haruka

Listen

Whenever I have trouble learning a new dance, I take a step back from practicing and try to sort out my thoughts.
35

Shizuku

Listen

That reminds me of how you make stew...
36

Mafuyu

Listen

Stew?
37

Shizuku

Listen

Yes, because you need to let it rest to bring out the flavor. Right?
38

Mafuyu

Listen

I see...
You have a point there.
39

Shizuku

Listen

See?
There really is nothing better than a daikon slice that's soaked with flavor.
40

Haruka

Listen

Wait, I thought we were talking about the importance of knowing when to take a break.
41

Mafuyu

Listen

Hehe. Our conversation's gone in a much more appetizing direction.
42

Haruka

Listen

I feel like having some stew now.
Some sweet and spicy lotus roots and konjac jelly would really hit the spot.
43

Shizuku

Listen

Yes, both of those do very well as part of a stew.
44

Haruka

Listen

Yeah, I like them a lot because they're healthy and full of fiber.
45

Shizuku

Listen

What's your favorite kind of stew, Asahina?
46

Mafuyu

Listen

Me?
Well, I do enjoy a good chikuzenni...
47

Mafuyu

Listen

I like the crunchiness of the bamboo shoots and the softness of the taro roots.
48

Shizuku

Listen

Yes, I also love chikuzenni!
49

Shizuku

Listen

(Hehe. Chatting while embroidering with my friends like this is so much fun...)
50

Shizuku

Listen

Oh, speaking of stew, Airi taught me this wonderful recipe for braised pork that just melts in your mouth...
