Part 1Part 2

Yuki	…alright, it's all done. Ten dresses are now complete.
Izumi	(Nothing less from Yuki-kun, each and every one of the dresses is perfect…!)
Theater Member A	Thank you! You've been a huge help~!
Member in charge of costumes	Really, thank you very much! If not for you Yuki-kun, we would've never made it to the performance…!
Yuki	You don’t need to thank me. It's just that I felt sorry for the incomplete dresses and all.
Member in charge of costumes	I've learnt so much from Yuki-kun's technique. It's very thorough, and yet so fast…!
Izumi	Fufu, I know right? Yuki-kun is our one and only costumes maker after all!
Yuki	Why are you the one being proud Director?
	Well, this much isn't a big deal, I'll help you again any time.
Theater Member A	Really? You saying that is so helpful~!
Izumi	Try not to rely too much on our boys okay? Well then, we are done with the cleaning, we should leave.
Theater Member A	Yup! Be careful on your way back! I still want to thank you, so I'll call you later!
Izumi	Okay, see you!
	Alright, time to head back. Let's go, Yuki-kun.
Yuki	Yup.
Izumi	Sorry for calling you out of the blue today. But you were a great help.
Yuki	It's not a big deal. If it's about costumes, anything becomes a great practice and helpful, so I'm grateful you know…
	It was fun making lots of cute girl-clothes for a change. Since our company is full with sordid men.
Izumi	Ahaha. Unlike our company, theirs has girls only right.
Yuki	Anyway, why were they so late with the making of the costumes? This much wasn't simply a scheduling miss right.
Izumi	They said there were some troubles, they had no choice but to suddenly make more costumes.
	Then, a friend who is affiliated with that company called me for help.
Yuki	Hmm I see. So that's what happened.
Izumi	So having you there as support really was a great help. Thank you, Yuki-kun.
Yuki	Sure, you're welcome.
	…but, since I've been working nonstop from morning till evening, as expected I'm tired.
Izumi	Ahaha, that's understandable. Let's eat something before we head home.
Yuki	…wait, you're not going to suggest curry right?
Izumi	Fufu, that's very appealing too, but today I’ll go with whatever you want Yuki-kun.
	What do you want to eat?
Yuki	Hmm… something sweet.
Izumi	Something sweet huh. I wonder if sweets shops are already closed at this hour…
Yuki	It doesn't really have to be a sweets only shop.
Izumi	But since we are at it a proper shop will… ah. I know, how about a night parfait?
Yuki	Night parfait?
Izumi	I saw it on a magazine the other day. I'm sure Yuki-kun would like it too.
Yuki	Hmm… okay, I'll go with you.
Izumi	Great! I think it should be here somewhere, so let's check it out!

Yuki	Heh, so this is the night parfait shop?
Izumi	Yup. Seems like it opened just recently, but I heard it's really popular. We're lucky that we were able to enter so fast today.
Yuki	Hmmm.
Izumi	Here, the menu.
Yuki	Thanks. …heh, they have lots of types.
Izumi	Look, it's an exclusive Valentine's Day parfait! It looks delicious…!
Yuki	You're right. Seems like there're two types of this one.
	Fruit Parfait topped with many seasonal fruits, and Sweets Parfait filled with chocolate candies.
Izumi	What to do, both look great I don't know what to choose…!
Yuki	Then, we should just buy both of them and share with each other. I'll order one of them.
Izumi	Eh, but then Yuki-kun you…
Yuki	I'm also curious about the Valentine parfait so actually it's a great help. Excuse me.
Employee	Yes. Have you decided on your order?
Yuki	The Valentine's Day parfait. Fruits and Sweets, one of each.
Employee	Very well.
Izumi	…sorry. Now it looks like I'm the one who decided everything.
Yuki	It's fine really. I told you I'm interested in them too right.
Izumi	Thank you, Yuki-kun.
Yuki	Like I told you, stop thanking me.
Employee	Sorry for the wait. Two Valentine's Day exclusive parfait.
Izumi	Woah, they look great! The topping is really refined too!
Yuki	So cute…
Izumi	Yuki-kun, you can choose first the one you want.
Yuki	Then… the fruits one.
Izumi	Got it. Then Sweets for me right!
Yuki	Well, we did decide which we're going to eat but we're going to share right?
Izumi	Yeah, if you don’t mind I really want a bite. Here, go ahead!
Yuki	Thanks. …yup, it's delicious. Here, back to you.
Izumi	Hm~! Both of the parfaits are so sweet and delicious~!
	Good thing we ordered both of them! Thank you, Yuki-kun.
Yuki	Again?
CHOICE 1: Yuki-kun being considerate made me happy [+] Izumi I mean, Yuki-kun being considerate made me happy. I just end up thanking you. Yuki I'm telling you it's not really being considerate. I just want to try both of them too.
CHOICE 2: Thanks to Yuki-kun I profited [+] Izumi Ahaha, when I thought that thanks to Yuki-kun I profited, I suddenly felt like thanking you. Yuki You're really exaggerating. It's just that you're so indecisive I couldn't wait anymore.
Izumi	Fufu, eating a parfait at night is really such a luxury. It's impossible to go often, but I think I'll go from time to time.
Yuki	…huh. You, aren't you getting a bit too excited?
Izumi	Eh, you think? Can it be, my voice was too loud?
Yuki	That's not it. …there's cream at the tip of your mouth.
Izumi	No way!? Where!?
Yuki	Not there. …now you went too far. …ah god, stay still for a second.
Izumi	O-Okay.
Yuki	There, I got it. Geez, an adult getting taken care of by me, what's with that.
Izumi	S-Sorry. Thank you for taking it off.
Yuki	No problem. …yup, this cream is sweet and yummy.
Izumi	!
	(Yuki-kun, he ate the…!)
	U-Um, Yuki-kun. Just now…
Yuki	…ah.
	I-It's nothing, there wasn't any deep meaning behind it! Don't go and misunderstand!
Izumi	Y-Yeah. You just found the cream tasty right.
Yuki	Hm. In the first place you…
Izumi	I-I'm sorry…
Yuki	…tonight I'll forgive you owning to this parfait, but from now on try to be more proper. Director.
