Tale #36

Smells of the town

-pg58-

Alpha

Early the next day, we went out on the town.

-pg59-

Alpha

Although they called it a town, it seemed very much like Yokohama.
It felt as if the houses and shops were placed at random amongst each other
into the distance.
Wow....

-pg60-

Alpha

In Musashino, both the trees and the roads are huge and in a straight line.

Alpha

We had nothing like the smell in the air back home.
It reminded me of the scent of Kokone's hair and clothes.
Although I couldn't be sure, it probably was that smell.

Sign

Corner tea

Kokone

You see,
There isn't much to see around here.

Alpha

Nn-nn.
I saw lots of unusual things.
But, that truth is it was mostly because there were two of us.

-pg63-

Alpha

Um, if it's not too much trouble, could you take a picture of us?

Waiter

Oh, sure.
Uh...there's nothing to look through...

Alpha

Ohhhh...just aim in the general direction.

Waiter

You got it.
Okay...say cheese.

Alpha

Eventually, I ended up having to stay another night.
A three day, two night trip.
