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.

 

[CHOICE]

  • 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.

 

[CHOICE]

  • 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!"
