Hagumi
Thanks for stopping by! See you again soon~!
Hagumi
Sigh...
Saaya
You sound tired, Hagumi.
Hagumi
Ah, Saya~! Welcome, welcome~!
Saaya
Hard at work, I see. I'll take the usual, five croquettes.
Hagumi
Coming right up! Hang tight!
Saaya
... Hagumi? What was up with that exhausted sighing from earlier?
Hagumi
Well... I'm in a bit of a jam, you see.
Saaya
A jam?
Hagumi
Uh-huh... You see, I'm planning on going to the fireworks festival with the rest of the band.
Saaya
Wow~! That sounds like a lot of fun! All the cool stands and whatnot. That should make for an exciting day...
Hagumi
Y-yeah! I'm looking forward to it!
Hagumi
We were going to wear our yukata and everything...
Saaya
H-huh? You make it sound like there is a problem...
Hagumi
You see, my parents made plans for that day. They have to attend a local meeting, and they don't know when they'll be back home.
Saaya
Ah, I see. In other words, you might have to watch the store and miss out on the festival...
Hagumi
No, no! The store will be closed that day, so I'm not worried about that.
Saaya
So what is it, then...?
Hagumi
Uhm... I don't know anyone who can help me put on the yukata!
Hagumi
I tried doing it by myself, but the sash got all tangled up...
Hagumi
I don't want to be the only one walking around in my normal clothes~!
Saaya
Hahaha, I bet. That does sound like a drag.
Saaya
Say, why don't I help you out?
Hagumi
Huh? You know how?
Saaya
Sure, more or less.
Hagumi
Awesome~! Wait... are you sure? Isn't it kinda complicated?
Saaya
Funnily enough, I'm planning on going to the festival with the rest of Poppin'Party.
Saaya
I've helped Kasumi with putting her yukata on before, so... I'll probably have to do it again this year.
Saaya
So why don't I help you out at the same time? I can do the tough parts. How does that sound?
Hagumi
For real?! Yes, please! Yay~! Thanks, Saya~!
Saaya
Fufu, you're welcome.
Saaya
You can stop by my place that morning. Putting on a yukata can take a long time.
Hagumi
Whatever you say, Saya-sensei!
Saaya
Fufufu, Kasumi called me the same thing.
Saaya
Anyway, here is the money for the croquettes. That should be enough.
Hagumi
Ah! I forgot about the croquettes! Sorry, I'll go get them right now!
Saaya
That yukata problem was really weighing on your mind, huh?
Hagumi
Totally! You have no idea how stressed I was!
Hagumi
Sorry for the wait! Here is a little present for being such a big help! A few extra freebies!
Saaya
You didn't need to do all that.
Saaya
Whoa! There are ten in here! Talk about generous~.
Saaya
Thank you. I'm sure my family will enjoy these.
Hagumi
I should be thanking you! Now the fireworks will be even more fun!
Hagumi
Oh boy, the festival can't come soon enough~! I seriously can't wait~!
Saaya
Hahaha, a new problem to replace the old one.
Hagumi
Come on, I bet you want it to come sooner too!
Saaya
Of course! Let's be sure to make the most of it!

Hagumi
BanG Dreamer-san! Hey there~!
Hagumi
That's a big bag you've got. Did you go shopping? You should pop into our shop and buy some croquettes too!
Hagumi
I helped make today's batch~! My best ones to date!
Hagumi
Ah, but Dad is on store duty today, so you won't see me if you do stop by!
Hagumi
Yeah, it's my day off. I'm on my way to go play!
Hagumi
... Huh? My bag? Oh, you mean the brooch on it?
Hagumi
Hehehe, cute, isn't it~?! I've grown pretty fond of it!
Hagumi
It all goes back to that recent fireworks festival. You know the one, right?
Hagumi
The rest of the band and I all went in our yukata. That's where I got this brooch!
Hagumi
While we were there, we got Kano-chan-senpai and Kaoru-kun to help us out with one of the assignments for our summer vacation homework.
Hagumi
The assignment was about making haiku, but I seriously had no idea what to write...
Hagumi
That's when Kano-chan-senpai suggested that we find some pretty scenery and write down exactly how it made us feel!
Hagumi
That's the whole reason why we went to the festival in the first place!
Hagumi
After that, we looked at all the stands, and we even rode on a pleasure boat...
Hagumi
It was all so much fun... The best summer of my life so far!
Hagumi
Huh? Did I actually finish the haiku between all that fun stuff?
Hagumi
Of course I did! It came out super good too!
Hagumi
The others wrote some really great ones too. I'll show them to you when I get a chance!
Hagumi
Hehehe. Sure! It's a promise!
Hagumi
All of us made a promise to go see the fireworks again next year! They can throw all the haiku homework they want at us! We can take it!
Hagumi
Hey, I have an idea! You should join us in making haiku, BanG Dreamer-san!
Hagumi
It's kind of difficult but also really fun!
Hagumi
Don’t worry! If you have any trouble, I'll give you some pointers!
Hagumi
The next time the band gets together to write haiku, I'll be sure to invite you!
Hagumi
We can iron out the details the next time we're at the studio! Hehehe, I can't wait~.
Hagumi
... Hey, wait a minute. What time is it?! Ah, I'm running late!
Hagumi
Sorry, but I gotta run! Thanks for chatting with me! Later~!
