New Year's first sale, now open!

Kokona
Just a while ago it felt like the year end.

Shizuka
That's right, time passes quickly...so if you don't properly do your winter break homework, you'll regret it again, you know?

Kokona
Ugh, I know~! I'm making a proper plan with Kathrina-chan and doing it!

Kathrina
Hey, stop dragging me into this when I don't want to think about it.

Shizuka
Oh? From the looks of it, the progress isn't going well?

Kathrina
Ugh...haah, that's right.

Kokona
We have to do New Year's calligraphy, but when it comes time to actually do it, I just can't get up~.

Kathrina
This kotatsu is the culprit...I think Kokona was the one who brought it, right?

Shizuka
Technically, she won it at the shopping district lottery...right? Still, this is troubling...you're in typical lazy mode.

Chisa
Looks warm there, young ladies. What are you all talking about gathered around the table?

Shizuka
Waah!? T-That startled me...no, we were just talking about the kotatsu.

Kokona
Still, Sasuga-chan, that's a lot of luggage. Where'd that come from?

Chisa
The somen wholesaler had their first sale, so as a valued customer, I bought a lot...!

Kathrina
Valued customer...is that really something you should call yourself?

Chisa
It shouldn't be wrong. Hmph, I'm Sirius's somen queen...!

Kokona
Ahaha...but moving around since morning, Sasuga-chan is amazing.

Shizuka
That's right, Kokona and Kathrina should follow Sasuga's example, get out of the kotatsu, and finish your New Year's calligraphy, don't you think?

Kokona
Ughhh...!

Kathrina
How careless to give Shizuka an opening, Kokona...

Chisa
Hm? New Year's calligraphy?

Shizuka
Yeah, these two have lost to the kotatsu's temptation and haven't done their New Year's calligraphy homework.

Chisa
Then why don't we do it together now? I was planning to do New Year's calligraphy after getting home too.

Chisa
If I do say so myself, my New Year's calligraphy has always been praised by teachers for its originality...I think I can be helpful in various ways.

Shizuka
Do you get praised for originality in New Year's calligraphy...?

Kokona
Really!? Then shall we ask you?

Kathrina
Well, I don't feel like I can move without creating some momentum. Thanks, Sasuga.

Shizuka
...So, if you're saying that, how about at least making a gesture of getting out of the kotatsu?

Kokona and Kathrina
...

Shizuka
...Sasuga, let's pull these two kotatsu snails out.

Chisa
Aye aye sir!

Kokona
W-Wait a minute, Shizuka-chan! I'm about to get out...wait!

Kathrina
That's right, there's the story of the North Wind and the Sun, right? If I get out now it'll be cold...that's a bit too rough...Sasuga, wait...Sasuga!!!

Shizuka and Chisa
On three!!

Kokona and Kathrina
Wahhh!!!!
