Perfect Timing

Xue: Thank you for waiting, here's your fried rice set meal.

Xue: Those who eat must pay later, okay?

Hikari: Yay! I'm so hungry even after the morning practice!

Hikari: Let's dig in!

Lilja: nom nom... Mmm, as always, Xue's cooking is excellent.

Hikari: Mmm, so delicious!

Hikari: Making this on the spot, Xue really is a genius fried rice chef!

Ramona: Mhm, I can't believe this was made from leftovers.

Ramona: Truly divine, a genius fried rice chef indeed.

Koyomi: It's good to run a lunch service using your cooking skills, but won't the chef get mad if you use the contents of the cafeteria fridge without
permission?

Xue: I'm just making good use of ingredients that would otherwise go to waste..

Xue: Environmentally friendly. That's the trendy thing called SDGs*.

Ramona: Koyomi, take a bite. It's delicious.

Koyomi: Are you trying to drag me in?

Koyomi: ...Well, if you're going to say that much, I will, just one bite.

Koyomi: ...! D-delicious...! Indeed...

Ramona: Once you taste it, you won't be able to say anything, right?

Xue: Koyomi, want to try some too?

Xue: There's a spare serving for 500 yen.

Koyomi: Gh...

Xue: As always. Hehehe. Preparedness leads to earnings.

Lilja: Koyomi's now an accomplice.

Hikari: Phew, thank you for the meal.

Koyomi: ...Thank you for the meal.

Ramona: I'm glad, Koyomi.

Ramona: You, who were once as difficult to catch as Princess Kaguya, now join us for meals like this.

Ramona: Let's go out more often and even plan a trip someday.

Ramona: As comrades who made "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" a success, let's deepen our bonds further.

Koyomi: Please don't include me in your social circle every time.

Koyomi: If you're going out, it's enough with everyone else.

Ramona: Hmm, there's a summer festival in Ueno next time, so I thought we could all go.

Ramona: To polish our skills, we must actively engage with Japanese culture.

Ramona: I'm sure there were flyers around here somewhere, look.

Hikari: A summer festival!?

Hikari: Just hearing that makes me want to go! I want to go, go!

Lilja: Me too. If I wear a yukata, maybe I'll attract even more attention with my beauty.

Xue: I’ll Pass.

Xue: Unfortunately, I'll be swamped with part-time work during the summer break.

Koyomi: This flyer...

Koyomi: For you, Ramona-san, this timing seems exceptional.

Koyomi: Xue-san, please decline that part-time job.

Xue: Huh!?

Koyomi: Let's all go to the summer festival together.

Koyomi: But there are conditions.

Koyomi: Actually, I've been asked to do a job by the local government.

Ramona: A job?

Koyomi: They want me to shoot the actors at the Gingaza enjoying the summer festival.

Koyomi: They want to use it for future promotional purposes for tourism.

Koyomi: They seem to be fond of "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" and if possible, they want to request the same cast to appear in the video.

Xue: Wait a sec, the summer break is prime time for earning.

Xue: Even if it's you, Koyomi-san, you don't have the right to stop my work.

Koyomi: I said it's a job, didn't I?

Koyomi: Of course, there will be compensation.

Koyomi: It's a much better daily wage than a part-time job, but won't you participate?

Xue: What!?

Xue: ...I'll arrange something with my workplace.

Xue: ...Alright, how much is the compensation!?

Koyomi: It depends on your work.

Koyomi: Since Xue-san is experienced in part-time work, are you familiar with stalls?

Koyomi: Please take the lead in filming the video, Xue-san.

Xue: What did you say...?

Koyomi: The fried rice was delicious. I won't tell the chef about it.

Xue: Ugh...

Hikari: Yay! Ramo-san, you did it!

Hikari: We can go to the summer festival!

Ramona: Yes! Let's create the best memories together!
