Next day

"Today we will choose the story for the play", I said.

The list:
• Romeo & Juliet
• Cinderella
• Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs
• The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter/The Bamboo Princess (Kaguya-hime)
• Momotarou, the Peach Boy

"This is the list of the stories we discussed", Saori wrote the list in the chalkboard. "Please choose one", she said.

"Hmm..? What do we choose?"

"I don't know! It's hard!"

"Why don't we vote?"

"Yeah, yeah!"

"Hmm.. Good idea, let's do it", Saori approved.

...

At last we chose Cinderella, an easy one. We started choosing the characters and discussing about the costumes, decorations, and panflets/posters. We only have 1 week.

"Why don't we also do a cafe?", someone suggested.

"Yeah! So that the people who are not participating in the play can be in the cafe"

"Everyone can have fun!"

"Hmm.. Good idea!", Saori and I approved.

"Teacher, do you agree?", I asked.

"Well, is not a bad idea", the teacher approved.

"Yay!!"

"We need to plan the menu for the cafe", Saori said.

"And also the name and panflets!", I suggested.

"Yeah!"

We plan everything. Everyone gave their ideas for both the cafe and the play. And we also chose the roles.

Roles:
Saori - Play: Cinderella
Akagaki - Cafe: Buttler & Decorations: Cafe & Play
Saki - Posters: Cafe & Play
Yunna - Play: Costumes & Cafe: Chef
Aozora(Me) - Director & Maid

Each of us did our best. The principal gave us this week free for the festival, so we could make the preparations. Let's start the countdown:

6 days left

"Yunna, how are the costumes??", I asked.

"I need many materials", Yunna said.

"We will help!", some girls came.

"Thank you", Yunna said.

...

"Saki, the posters?", I asked.

"I need help!", Saki replied.

"We will help!"

"I have some ideas!", a girl said.

"Whoa! Amazing!!", Saki said.

...

"How is the decoration?", I asked.

"We are doing great here!", he said.

"Okay, good!", I said.

...

"For the play, try to do it with more feelings", I suggested.

"Hmm.. Can we try changing some lines of the script to a way more natural for us?", Saori suggested.

"Hmm.. Not a bad idea, but try not to change the meaning behind the lines", I said.

...

"They are working hard together", the teacher murmured.
