Let's see. If I turn here, I should get to Otonokizaka soon.
*YAWN*
I was talking on video call with Chika until 3am. I overslept and missed the bus.
Luckily, the school isn't that far from the subway station. So it was a left here and a right here?
That's strange. I...ended up in the entirely wrong place.
Ugh, I'm so lost.
HONOKA: "Oh, what a coincidence! Were you on your way to the school?"
AKI: "Honoka?! I'm so glad to see you!"
HONOKA: "You are? If you need to talk, I'm all ears!"
AKI: "I was worried that I was lost, that I took a wrong turning or something. I don't want to arrive late."
HONOKA: "School doesn't start for a while, though."
AKI: "Really? I guess that's true..."
HONOKA: "So you've been walking around here for a while. Sounds like you had a rough time."
AKI: "I'm relieved I ran into you, though. Although, I think we're quite far from the school."
HONOKA: "The school is right around the corner! I would know, this is where I live."
AKI: "Wait, you mean this Japanese sweets bakery?"
Homura Bakery...
That makes sense, Shiro said that his uncle ran a sweets store. Looks like his story checks out.
HONOKA: "You're tired from all that walking, right? Come in and take a break!"
AKI: "Are you sure? H-Hey don't push me inside!"
HONOKA: "Here you are, some tea and a sweet bun!"
AKI: "Thanks! Shiro told me that his uncle ran a sweets store. I suppose he meant your father, correct?"
HONOKA: "That's right! Hey, I almost forgot about the interview, yesterday was so much fun. So, how does Shiro know you?"
AKI: "We go to the same school."
HONOKA: "Really? That's cool! You two must be close friends."
AKI: "Yeah, something like that. Still, this is a really nice place you've got here."
HONOKA: "Yeah, I even work the register sometimes. Well they make me work it."
AKI: "Wow, it must be tough working here, studying and finding time to be a school idol."
HONOKA: "You're the one who has it tough, you came here just to do an interview. But now we've convinced you to help us out."
AKI: "It's all for the interview. I'm just glad I can support μ's!"
HONOKA: "Thanks! You being here is going to be such a big help.
For all the help you provide, I think we can do our best to become a newer μ's!"
AKI: "I'm actually happy to be helping someone like you, Honoka."
HONOKA: "You are? Awesome!"
AKI: "You're so kind and full of energy. I feel energized just hanging out with you!"
HONOKA: "You think so? I have plenty of energy, so I'll share mine with you anytime!"
AKI: "You've cheered me up, and the sweet buns and tea here are great. Gosh, Homura Bakery is such an awesome place!"
HONOKA: *Giggle* "Oh, stop. Here, why don't you have another one?"
AKI: "I'd love one, but we have to go to school!"
HONOKA: "Oh no, I forgot! Okay let's get going then."
I'm glad I ran into Honoka. Now I think I can do my best today!
