Ch. 3: Fireworks, Pretty!
I joined in the dancing circle with Randa, and large fireworks were launched into the night sky.
OO: "Wow…they're so beautiful…"
OO:" Family specialty! Making, difficult!!"
They made them for me.
Randa: "Better to watch like this!"
OO: "Whoa…!"
Randa easily lifted me up.
The multicolored fireworks burst overhead, with me just a little closer to the sky.

Thank you (SUN)
-
That surprised me (MOON)
Randa: "You like it! I like!"
OO: "Eh?"
It had come out of nowhere, and I looked down at Randa, still held up in his arms.
Looking into his glittering, innocent eyes, I felt my face heat up.
Saying something like that all of a sudden…
Randa: "You, good guy!"
Good guy? …Ah, I see. He likes me like a friend then.
Realizing that, I felt embarrassed at myself.
What a funny misunderstanding…
Randa: "And you?"
Randa peered up at me.

-
Me too (SUN)
-
I'm glad we could become friends (MOON)
Randa's smiling face was illuminated by the colorful fireworks.
At that time…-
Child: "Randa! Dance over there!"
A group of children rushed up to Randa.
Randa: "OK!"
Dropping me from his arms, the children grabbed Randa's hand and he was pulled away.
I felt a little lonely having been separated from that warmth.
Randa: "Let's dance!"
Randa started dancing with the children in the ring.
I didn't know for how long I watched him as he smiled like that.
OO: "Me too."
Randa: "OK! You like too!"
OO: "I'm glad we could become friends."
Randa: "Friend? You like friend?"
OO: "That surprised me…"
Randa: "Fireworks, really loud!"
That's not what I was talking about.
OO: "Thank you."
Randa: "No problem!"
