Tale #16:

Apron

-pg5-

Alpha

Maybe I should head on over to Yokohama again...
Welcome!

-pg6-

Kokone

Hello...

Alpha

Wow!
Wowie!

-pg7-

Kokone

I hope this is a good time...
For me to drop in...

Alpha

It's a great time!
Wow....thanks for coming!
I wasn't expecting this!

Kokone

Ah ha ha...um...
I sent a letter about 10 days ago...

Alpha

Eh ?
Ah...
I never see the mailcar these days...

Kokone

Ahh....

-pg8-

Alpha

You didn't walk here again, did you ?

Kokone

No.
I bought myself a scooter since then...

Alpha

Eh!?
Let me see, let me see!

-pg9-

Alpha

Nifty!
It's so cute!
What CC?

Kokone

It's an electric...
(The power's about 90cc, I think...)

Alpha

Electric ?
C...can I try it out ?

Kokone

Sure.
Here's the key.

-pg10-

Alpha

About this key...when you turn it on...

Kokone

Oh, that again ?
You get used to it.
It has that effect on me too.

Alpha

Ah...

-pg11-

Alpha

Mm...
It sorta feels nice, actually...

Kokone

Yeah, it does.

Alpha

It's so quiet!

Kokone

I'm very happy with it.
It looks a lot like yours.

Alpha

Let's go somewhere this time!

Kokone

Sure.

-pg12-

Kokone

Er...do you know any good places to stay around here ?

Alpha

Eh ? Spending the night ?

Kokone

Yeah...it wasn't easy getting out here.
I want to make the most of it.

Alpha

Well, then...
Stay here!
There's no inns around here anyway...

Kokone

Eh ?
But I wouldn't...
Well...

-pg13-

Kokone

Er...anything I can help with ?

Alpha

Mm-mm.

Kokone

But it would calm my nerves a little...
And you aren't busy, anyway.

Alpha

Would you like an apron ?
You could be sort of temporary staff...

Kokone

Yes.

-pg14-

Kokone

Doesn't look good ?

Alpha

Oh, no, no!
It just suddenly feels like a real 'coffee shop.'

Kokone

It does ?

-pg15-

Kokone

Er...If you don't mind...
I'd like to learn how to make coffee...

Alpha

Uhhh...okay, but I've never taught anyone before...

Kokone

I'm sure you can!

Alpha

Mm.

-pg16-

Ojisan

Yo!

-pg17-

Both

Welcome!

Alpha

Something wrong ?

Ojisan

Ah...no.
I just thought I had the wrong coffee shop for a sec.

Alpha

Ahh...

-pg18-

Kokone

Um...thanks again...

Alpha

Oh, on the last visit!
And suddenly, it's a busy day...
