Akito
Yeah, we should be at our station in about an hour, and a bus will take us the rest of the way.
Kohane
Yeah... Oh, I should tell my mom that we managed to catch our connection before I forget...
An
Hehe. That's right. Your mom did seem more worried about us missing a train than going out camping.
An
I love the way she said, This is your first time going to this place, so don't get too absorbed in the scenery.
Kohane
Yeah, she has a habit of saying that because of my dad, so I'm guessing she's worried about me doing the same thing.
Toya
But I understand what she means. Anyone would want to take their time looking around if it's somewhere they've never been before.
An
Yeah, I mean, wasn't he totally against you dropping everything to go do street music instead?
Toya
I even put together supplementary figures and documents to explain what we'd be doing.

Toya
Yes. Ultimately, I was able to convince him by using words to explain how important it is for me to go on this trip.
Toya
So if I have to do this again, he could just turn me down by saying, I don't have time right now.
Toya
Which is why I need to think of a quicker and more digestible way to explain things next time.
Kohane
But you're really good at explaining stuff, Aoyagi, so I'm sure you'll think of something!

Kohane
Looks like they've already harvested everything. It feels really somber for some reason.
Kohane
If only we'd come sooner. I'm guessing it was really pretty with all those rice stalks dancing in the wind.
Kohane
You know how rice stalks turn yellow just before they're harvested? They become this beautiful golden color as the sun sets at dusk.
Kohane
And the wind makes them all rustle in a way that sounds like waves are crashing on a beach.
Toya
Like a beach...
That really must be something you can only enjoy during the right time of year.

Akito
Come to think of it, my dad told us something similar when we went camping that one time...
An
And it's absolutely gorgeous, right?!
It reminds me of when we harvested rice during elementary school.

An
And I can tell you more about harvesting rice! Although, it was a long time ago, so I don't exactly remember everything...
