Part 1

Rehearsal Studio
1
Ichika
I'm all set to go.
2
Shiho
I'm also ready.
3
Saki
Then, let's have another fun practice today and—
4
Honami
Saki, I think your phone's ringing.
5
Saki
Oh, it's my boss!
Sorry, I need to take this!
6
Saki
Hi, boss. Tenma here.
Yes... Yes, that's fine...
7
Ichika
Why do you think her manager's calling her...?
8
Shiho
This could be about them doing that shoot for TV. Saki's scheduled to work that day.
9
Honami
Oh, I almost forgot.
That shoot's fairly soon, no?
10
Ichika
Not only that, Haruka and the others will be there too—
11
Saki
Whaaat?!
12
Ichika
Huh...?
13
Shiho
Wh-What?
14
Saki
O-Okay, I understand.
I'll also try asking around...
15
Saki
...
16
Honami
S-Saki...?
17
Saki
Everyone, please answer this as honestly as you can.
18
Ichika
What...?
19
Saki
How would you like some extra money...?
20
Saki
...which is why this person with a ton of experience won't be able to make it that day.
21
Saki
And we urgently need someone to fill in now.
22
Shiho
What about any of the other employees at the cafe?
23
Saki
Oh, my boss did manage to find someone who can come in that day.
24
Saki
But they won't be able to make up for years of experience. Which is why we still need one more...
25
Ichika
By the way, what does this job involve...?
26
Saki
Umm... You'd be waiting tables and putting on the finishing touches to sweets.
27
Shiho
Like decorating them...?
In that case...
28
Saki
How about it, Hona...?
29
Honami
As much as I want to help, I unfortunately have a prior engagement...
30
Saki
Okay...
Then...
31
Shiho
Do you honestly think I can wait tables?
32
Ichika
What...?
33
Honami
Shiho...
34
Saki
Wait, how did you...?! And don't give me that look!
35
Shiho
I didn't want to get your hopes up.
36
Shiho
In any case, Ichika seems like the best person for this job.
37
Ichika
Hmm... I probably wouldn't have too much trouble waiting tables, but I'm less sure about decorating sweets...
38
Saki
No, wait!
Ichi, you know how to make hamburgers!
39
Ichika
That just basically involves stacking things together. Anyone can do it as long as you follow the instructions...
40
Ichika
You're talking about parfaits and stuff, right? I really don't know if I'll be able to decorate them properly. Even just putting on dollops of fresh whipped cream might be...
41
Saki
Don't worry! I was also really terrible at first! This one time, my dollops of whipped cream all turned into cream-shaped ghosts!
42
Saki
Please, Ichi...!
You're my only hope!
43
Saki
And you'll get paid!
You can buy whatever clothes or delicious food you like!
44
Ichika
The money does sound nice...
But I still feel that I won't be all that helpful.
45
Saki
No, don't say that!
Just waiting tables alone would be huge!
46
Saki
Please...! I seriously don't have anyone else that I can turn to!
47
Saki
Think of it as helping me and the cafe...!
48
Ichika
Okay...
I'll help if you can't find anyone else.
49
Saki
Thank you so much!
50
Honami
I'm so glad for you, Saki!
51
Saki
Thanks♪
52
Ichika
Still, I really don't think I'm cut out for decorating sweets...
53
Shiho
...
54
Shiho
Then, how about I take over the decorating?
55
Honami
Yes, I have a feeling you'd be very good at that!
56
Saki
Sh-Shiho...!
57
Saki
Thank you, Ichi, Shiho!
I love you both so much!
58
Ichika
Don't forget the part about looking for someone else first, okay...?
59
Saki
I know!
Hehe...!
