Banri | Trial at a designer college? |
Yuki | Yup, I got invited by my sister’s acquaintance. |
| It’s only for a day but since I’ve always been studying by myself, I think I can learn a thing or two by using the methods used in that kind of school as a reference. |
Banri | Ooh, that sounds great. |
| By the way, Yuki, when did you start making clothes by yourself? |
Yuki | I think it was around my kindergarten days. |
Banri | To be able to make clothes at such age, what kind of kindergartener were you? |
Yuki | Well, my parents didn’t let me use needles since it was dangerous, so I only made some easy things. |
| Like making a skirt from my sister’s clothes, knitting and--. |
| |
| Mom, sew this part with the sewing machine. |
Yuki’s Mom | This part, alright. |
| Okay, it’s done. |
Yuki | I just need to put on the emblem here, and… done! |
Yuki’s Mom | Oh my, that’s great. Do you want to try wearing it? |
Yuki | ...Yes. |
| --. |
Yuki’s Mom | It’s cute. |
Yuki | Yes! |
| |
| ...It’s done. |
Yuki’s Mom | Oh my, that came out well. Are you going to pair it up with the skirt from the other day? |
Yuki | No, I’m going to give it to… |
| |
| … |
Banri | What’s wrong? |
Yuki | No, it’s nothing. |
| |
Sawatari | Ah! So you came. |
Yuki | I’ll be in your care. |
Sawatari | Me too. You can take it easy since today is only a trial. |
Yuki | Okay. |
Participant A | Hey, hey. Which high school are you from? |
Participant B | Nanko. |
Participant A | Are you perhaps from the fashion department? |
Participant B | Yeah. |
Participant A | How nice. Me too. I was hesitating when I took the entrance exam, you see. |
Participant B | But at the end of the day, we wanted to study fashion. |
Participant A | Are there a lot of Nanko students coming today? |
Participant B | I think there are around one-third of us here. |
Yuki | ...The level is high. |
| |
| …sighs. |
Taichi | Huh? Yuki-chan? |
Yuki | … |
Taichi | …? What’s wrong? |
Yuki | It’s nothing. What are you doing here? |
Taichi | I was just riding my skateboard around. How about you, Yuki-chan? Where are you going? |
Yuki | I was just taking a designer trial lesson at a fashion college. |
Taichi | Oooh! What did you do there? |
Yuki | I was listening to lectures about costumes made by college students and making a design book. |
Taichi | Design book??? |
Yuki | We compile the things we like and hate, and things that serve as our inspiration in one book. |
| Then, we present our own design ideas that we have put together--something like that. |
Taichi | Your own design…??? It sounds difficult… I’ll never be able to do that! |
| But it should be easy-peasy for Yuki-chan, right! |
Yuki | … |
Taichi | Yuki-chan? |
Yuki | Let’s head home quickly. It’s almost time for dinner. |
Taichi | Ah, wait! |
