Ichika

Listen

What do you think we should get for her...?
2

Saki

Listen

Well, Hona's practicing really hard for her reading event...
3

Shiho

Listen

She might be feeling tired since she's not used to acting. So, what if we got her something that she'll find encouraging?
4

Ichika

Listen

Right...
Something encouraging...

Ichika

Listen

Oh, Honami just replied back.
6

Saki

Listen

Where is she practicing?
7

Ichika

Listen

The park.
Oh, she even sent a picture. Take a look.
8

Saki

Listen

Hey, look at that!
She and Nene are doing a “Let's do this!” pose!
9

Shiho

Listen

I have to think that they're both really motivated.
10

Shiho

Listen

It sounds like she's been practicing every day after school since she was asked to be the storyteller.
11

Ichika

Listen

It really is like her to work so hard like this.
12

Saki

Listen

Alright, that means we gotta support those two by buying something nice for them!
13

Ichika

Listen

Right. I hope we find something they'll like.
14

Ichika

Listen

Oh, I know...
Her favorite thing might do the trick, right?
15

Saki

Listen

Huh?
16

Shiho

Listen

Yeah, since this is Honami we're talking about, we should probably get...
17

Saki

Listen

Wait, I know the answer!
18

Saki

Listen

Hehe♪ It has to be...!
19

Shiho, Ichika & Saki

Listen

Apple pies!
20

Ichika

Listen

Those are a must.
I've never seen Honami look unhappy while having an apple pie.
21

Shiho

Listen

Right. Seems like a sure bet.
22

Saki

Listen

I can picture it now!
Hona's smiling face when she finds out that we got her apple pies!
23

Shiho

Listen

No need to picture it, we'll see it soon.
24

Ichika

Listen

Oh, while we're on the subject...
I remember her talking about some particular ones recently.
25

Saki

Listen

Yeah, the ones from the confectionary shop in this mall! She said they started selling them not too long ago!
26

Shiho

Listen

She talked about them pretty passionately. She said she's really excited about trying them since she hasn't had them yet.
27

Ichika

Listen

Which means they'd make the perfect gift.
28

Saki

Listen

Yeah, let's go get some!
29

Saki

Listen

Now, what would go well with them?
30

Ichika

Listen

Hmm... Well...
31

Ichika

Listen

Since they're practicing telling a story, they might want something that helps their throats.
32

Saki

Listen

Oh, in that case, what about herbal tea?
33

Saki

Listen

It's good for your throat, and goes great with apple pies!
34

Ichika

Listen

Yeah, that's not a bad idea.
Plus, it's really soothing.
35

Shiho

Listen

Yeah. And this place's cafe sells herbal tea, right?
36

Saki

Listen

They do!
We should be able to get some to go!
37

Ichika

Listen

Then, we can also buy some tea.
What else is good for your throat? Oh...
38

Ichika

Listen

Come to think of it, does Tsukasa do anything special for his throat?
39

Saki

Listen

Tsukasa?
40

Ichika

Listen

Yeah. I figured that he takes good care of his throat since he needs it when he performs in shows.
41

Saki

Listen

Hmm... I've never really asked him...
42

Saki

Listen

But I think he does stuff!
He's always doing everything he can, so I have to believe he's taking good care of his throat!
43

Ichika

Listen

That's certainly my image of him.
44

Shiho

Listen

Although, I feel like he can shout at will without really doing anything special.
45

Ichika

Listen

Hehe. Yeah.
46

Saki

Listen

Haha♪ I'll send him a message since he might know some good tips and tricks.
47

Ichika

Listen

Thanks.
Then, while we wait for him to respond, let's buy everything else.
48

Ichika

Listen

I hope we're able to help make their reading event a success.
49

Shiho & Saki

Listen

Me too.
Me too!
