Part 1: The Wish of a Flower Shop Part-Timer

-----------------------------------------------------

Haruna Konomi: Welcome!

Haruna Konomi: Ahhhh!! Kako-chan! Kaede-chan!

Kaede: Hello there.

Natsume Kako: Umm... We're here to give you a hand...!

Haruna Konomi: Really? That's great!

Haruna Konomi: This is where I work part-time. A flower shop called Blossom.

Haruna Konomi: I didn't start working here because I wanted to earn some pocket money...

Haruna Konomi: The florist... She's why I started to work here.

Haruna Konomi: Yes, my reason was... because...

Florist: Oh, my!

Florist: Kaede-chan, Kako-chan, welcome.

Kaede: Ah! Hello, ma'am...!

Natsume Kako: Ah! Hello...!

Haruna Konomi: My reason to be here was... because...

Haruna Konomi: Because of the florist that manages Blossom... Because she's the one who showed me the allure of flowers.

Kaede: Yes, and a free tulip for you.

Kid: Thank you very much.

Natsume Kako: Ah...! You put one in her hair...

Kaede: Eheheh. Don't you look just like a princess?

Kid: Wow~...! So cuuute!

Haruna Konomi: Heheh... (...How nostalgic...)

Haruna Konomi: (I also experienced something like that...)

Konomi (child): "...*sob*... *sob*..."

Florist: "Oh, my... What happened to you? Did you fall down?"

Konomi (child): "Uuu... *sob*... *sob*..."

Florist: "There, there... This old lady will give you something pretty."

Haruna Konomi: As I was laying on the ground crying, the old lady placed a flower in my hair.

Haruna Konomi: And with that small and wonderful gesture, I simply stopped crying...

Haruna Konomi: That's when I realized how pleasant it felt to receive a flower.

Haruna Konomi: Flowers, right?

Haruna Konomi: From the moment they bloom until the moment they wither... They use their lives...

Haruna Konomi: to bring colours to ours.

Kid: They bring... colours...?

Haruna Konomi: Heheh, yuuup... You see...

Haruna Konomi: At the very least... they bring a smile to my face.

Haruna Konomi: Doesn't it make you smile when they turn you into a princess?

Kid: ...Wooow...! Amazing!

Kid: Flowers are amazing! They are lovely!

Haruna Konomi: That's right, they are amazing.

Haruna Konomi: Flowers colour our lives with their own.

Haruna Konomi: That is... what my dearest florist taught me.

---------------------

Woman: Excuuuse me.

Haruna Konomi: Yeees!

Woman: Um... about this bouquet...

Natsume Kako: Ah, yes! Welcome...!

Man: They are called... Angelique? I'd like to buy one of these...

Kaede: Of course!

Kaede: Konomi-chan! A bouquet of Angelique flowers!

Haruna Konomi: Yeees! I'll be right there...!

Haruna Konomi: Everything is sailing smoothly nowadays... However, the shop was in danger of closing not too long ago.

Florist: Here we go...!

Natsume Kako: Ah! Ah, ma'am...! Let me take care of that...!

Kaede: Ah...!! Ma'am!

Kaede: You shouldn't be lifting heavy things... Let us take care of that stuff...!

Florist: Ehh? That's...

Kaede: Ma'am, you shouldn't ignore your illness...

Kaede: Please don't overdo it...!

Natsume Kako: Yep...! Yep...!

Kaede: That's why we come here to help...!

Florist: ...Is that so? I guess I'll take it easy and leave it to you.

Kaede: Yes! We'll take care of everything...!

Kaede: Kako-chan! Let's do it!

Kaede: Yep...! ...Ready, set...!

Haruna Konomi: Ahhh!! Can you carry that over there?

Kaede: Got it! Thanks!

Haruna Konomi: The florist got out of the hospital a little while ago...

Haruna Konomi: We'll be getting new stock today... I left as soon as I could...!

Haruna Konomi: Gotta hurry...!

Haruna Konomi: (Hm? What? What's that...?)

Haruna Konomi: (Is that an ambulance...?)

Haruna Konomi: (Ahhhh?! It's in front of our shop...!!)

Haruna Konomi: Ummm...! Excuse me...! Please let me through...!

Haruna Konomi: Ma'am?! Ma'am!!

Haruna Konomi: The illness that afflicts her is not something that can be cured easily.

Florist: Blossom... I think I'll have to close it...

Haruna Konomi: Ahhhh! But...! ...But....

Haruna Konomi: Oh, that's right.

Haruna Konomi: If the florist herself can't tend the shop... then the shop will have to close.

Haruna Konomi: I wonder if there's any way to prevent that from happening...

Haruna Konomi: But I'm just a high school student... There is nothing I can do.

---------------------

Haruna Konomi: (I... can't keep... her shop from closing...)

Haruna Konomi: ...I'm powerless to stop it...

Haruna Konomi: *sob*... Isn't there... something I can do...

???: There *is* something you can do.

Haruna Konomi: Ahhh?! Who's there...?!

???: I'm right over here, Haruna Konomi.

Haruna Konomi: That's my name...!

Haruna Konomi: Ahhh!! Y-You just talked... Did you just...?

Kyubey: That's correct.

Kyubey: If you make a contract with me, you can become a magical girl.

Haruna Konomi: A magical... girl...?

Kyubey: Yes.

Kyubey: If you become one, I can grant you any wish you desire.

Haruna Konomi: Any wish...?

Haruna Konomi: ...I could... the florist's... flower shop...

Haruna Konomi: Can you help me...?

Haruna Konomi: That'd be 3200 yen.

Natsume Kako: K-Konomi-chan...!!

Haruna Konomi: ? What's up...? Is it about the sweet peas?

Natsume Kako: Noo...! That's not it...!

Natsume Kako: A witch...!

Haruna Konomi: Ahhh?! Eh...?!

Kaede: Look...! The customers by the entrance...!

Haruna Konomi: The entrance... Are they...?

Kaede: I've been noticing something strange ever since I got here...

Kaede: So I checked it out carefully...

Haruna Konomi: ...

Haruna Konomi: Ahhh! They have...! A witch's kiss...!

Natsume Kako: Yep...! Yep...!

Haruna Konomi: Let's go...!

Kaede: Yep...!

Haruna Konomi: I'm sorry, ma'am!

Haruna Konomi: Could we take a little break?

Florist: Yes. I'll take care of the customers...

Florist: Go ahead and have a break.

Haruna Konomi: Yes, thank you!

Haruna Konomi: You two... Let's go!

Kaede: Yes!

Natsume Kako: Yep...!

Haruna Konomi: I only had one wish... I'm very fond of the florist... So I wanted to protect her wonderful shop...

Haruna Konomi: I wanted her to manage the shop with a smile on her face...

Haruna Konomi: And in exchange for curing her illness... I became a magical girl.

---------------------

Natsume Kako: We found it...! Her barrier...!

Haruna Konomi: We need to hurry and kill the witch... to help the customers...!

Kaede: Yes...! The three of us will give it our all...!

Haruna Konomi: *pant*... Extermination complete...

Kaede: Everything is back to normal!

Natsume Kako: That's very good...!

Haruna Konomi: Heheh, yep, that it is...!

Haruna Konomi: There's another reason why I can endure doing this besides the shop... Why I can endure being a magical girl.

Haruna Konomi: It's these two who know me and are more than just friends... They are my dearest, closest companions.

Kaede: Ahh!! Konomi-chan! We should go back soon!

Haruna Konomi: Eh?

Natsume Kako: It's going to be peak time for shopping...!

Haruna Konomi: Ahhh! That's right! We need to hurry back...!

Kaede: Shall we make a run for it?

Haruna Konomi: Yep!

Haruna Konomi: Whoa...! There's such a long queue...!

Kaede: They seem to be students who are done with their club activities...

Natsume Kako: And office ladies who got out of work...

Haruna Konomi: Guess it must be rush hour...

Haruna Konomi: Sorry! Could you two help me out a little longer?

Kaede: Of course! That was always our intention, right?

Natsume Kako: Yep...! Yep...!

Haruna Konomi: Thanks!

Haruna Konomi: Before the florist regained her health with my wish, business wasn't exactly booming...

Girl: Right, it's super cuuute!

Haruna Konomi: But now there's a queue of young customers, like something out of a dream.

Haruna Konomi: Now the shop can survive... I'm grateful that I met Kaede-chan and Kako-chan...

Haruna Konomi: That I'm surrounded by my favourite flowers... and the smiles of the customers... And that I can keep working in this shop.

Haruna Konomi: Welcomeee to the shop!

Haruna Konomi: (How nostalgic...)

Haruna Konomi: (That reminds me of the first time these two came to the shop.)

Haruna Konomi: (At first... we talked to each other so politely.)

Haruna Konomi: As long as I can protect the florist and the shop... I'm more than willing to be a magical girl...!

-----------------------------------------------------

Part 2: The Bursting Flower Girl Appears

-----------------------------------------------------

Haruna Konomi: Welcome to the shop...!

Kaede: We're hoping you have the flower that Kako-chan is looking for!

Natsume Kako: Yes, thank you.

Haruna Konomi: (Ahhh!! These girls are young...!)

Kaede: Um... Excuse me, so we're looking for carnations...

Haruna Konomi: Carnations! What colour did you have in mind?

Kaede: Kako-chan.

Natsume Kako: Ah, uuuu, yep...!

Natsume Kako: It's... purple... It's unusual...

Natsume Kako: It's the Moondust... variety... I believe...

Haruna Konomi: The Moondusts! We have them!

Natsume Kako: R-Really?!

Haruna Konomi: We acquired them very recently.

Kaede: That's great!

Natsume Kako: Yep! Yep...!

Haruna Konomi: Here you go.

Natsume Kako: Umm... Thank you very much...!

Natsume Kako: I've been looking for them for so long... I'm really happy...!

Haruna Konomi: Really...! You don't need to thank me...!

Haruna Konomi: I'm really happy myself!

Haruna Konomi: I adore making young people happy with our flowers.

Kaede: "Young people"...?

Haruna Konomi: Here's some chamomile tea.

Kaede: Pardon our intrusion...! Thank you for the tea...

Natsume Kako: (*nod nod*...!)

Haruna Konomi: No worries...! I'm on my break anyway...!

Haruna Konomi: Actually...

Haruna Konomi: I'm glad you two decided to stop by...

Kaede: Is that really unusual? Having young customers, I mean...

Haruna Konomi: Indeed... It is quite unusual.

Haruna Konomi: When was the last time that happened? ...Let's see.

Haruna Konomi: I have to think really far back.

Kaede: That long...

Natsume Kako: Well... I... read about these flowers in a novel...

Natsume Kako: That's why I came here to look for them...

Natsume Kako: I had never been... to a flower shop before...

Haruna Konomi: Right... I see...

Natsume Kako: Ah! B-But...!

Natsume Kako: Today I visited a flower shop for the first time...!

Natsume Kako: And it's really beautiful...!

Natsume Kako: And now, for my friend's birthday...

Natsume Kako: Flowers... I would like to buy some as a gift...!

Natsume Kako: That's... what I think...!

Haruna Konomi: Really...?!

Haruna Konomi: Thank you so much...! I'm super, super happy!

Kaede: ...Right... I've never had the opportunity to gift someone flowers...

Kaede: So I never noticed their allure before... I guess?

Kaede: But when someone gave me flowers once...

Kaede: It was such a wonderful feeling... So I want to be the one to give flowers this time...

Kaede: So... I look forward to that...?

Natsume Kako: (*nod!* *nod...!*)

Haruna Konomi: I get it... They are actually... "presents"...

Haruna Konomi: ...I see!

Kaede: ?

Haruna Konomi: I just had a great idea!

Natsume Kako: ?

---------------------

Man: How lucky~ ♪

Man: (It's only ten thousand yen... but it's the first time I won the lottery!)

Man: This is so exciting... Maybe I'll even buy some steak~ ♪

Haruna Konomi: Congratulations to you!!

Man: Eh?!

Haruna Konomi: Something made you very happy, right?!

Man: Eh... Ehh, ah...

Haruna Konomi: A present from me to you... They're flowers!!

Man: Eh, um...

Haruna Konomi: Okay, bye!

Old Man: Bah, I can't do this anymore... My life... is over...

Kaede: Here's a flower present for you!

Old Man: Waaah!!

Kaede: Bye now!

Old Man: W-What...! ...Was that... a spirit...?!

Boy: I've got Yuka-chan's number~.

Boy: I couldn't be happier.

Natsume Kako: Um... These... flowers... are for you...

Boy: Huh...?!

Natsume Kako: Goodbye...

Boy: ...

Boy: W... W... Where did you come frooooooom!!

Boy: Seriously... Thought she was going to possess me...!!

Kaede: Konomi-chan! Ten! I gave flowers to ten people!

Haruna Konomi: Ten people?! Thanks a lot!!

Haruna Konomi: Ah! Kako-chan!

Kaede: How did it go?

Natsume Kako: *blushing*, thirteen. I gave flowers to thirteen people...!

Haruna Konomi: Thirteen people?!

Kaede: That's amazing!!

Natsume Kako: I-It was so embarrassing... But I worked hard...!

Haruna Konomi: Yup, yup! Amazing!!

Haruna Konomi: I'm sorry for making you two do this with me, you know?

Haruna Konomi: This was my idea...

Natsume Kako: N-Noo! I, too...

Natsume Kako: wanted to show... the allure of flowers... to everyone...!

Haruna Konomi: Kako-chan...

Kaede: I think so, too!

Kaede: All three of us will work together...

Kaede: to convey the allure of flowers!!

Haruna Konomi: Yup! Yuup!

Kaede: Konomi-chan, when are we doing this again?

Haruna Konomi: Day after tomorrow! Next Thursday!

Kaede: Okay, Thursday! Let's do our best on that day!!

Haruna Konomi: Yeees!!

Boy: Ah, Yuka-chan?

Boy: I'm serious, listen to me! She must have been a ghost!

Boy: She gave me some flowers... Suddenly, out of nowhere...!

---------------------

Girl A: It happens when you're walking outside in the middle of the night, right? Someone just gives you flowers!

Girl B: Yeah, I've heard about that!

Boy A: ...And then she's gone in an instant...

Boy A.: And you're left holding a bunch of flowers...!

Boy B.: Whaaat...!

Girl C: My friend's boyfriend got some flowers!

Girl D: My cousin's friend told me about it!

Kaede: Well, Konomi-chan, after you're done with work...

Kaede: Shall we meet in front of the shop?

Haruna Konomi: Yup!

Natsume Kako: Got it!

Girl: Ah! Haruna-san!

Haruna Konomi: ? What?

Girl: Haruna-san, you work in that flower shop.

Girl: Maybe you know something about her! About "The Bursting Flower Girl"!

Haruna Konomi: "The Bursting"... "Flower Girl"...?

Kaede: T-That name... I heard that name before...

Natsume Kako: Yep...

Girl: Do you know about her?

Girl: It's become this huge rumour among young people!

Haruna Konomi: W-What do these rumours say...?

Girl: Well...

Girl: You're walking alone at night... and out of nowhere, a girl appears...

Flower Girl: Hey... these flowers... Aren't they beautiful...?

Boy: Yes, they are beautiful.

Flower Girl: Then take them nowwwwwwww!!

Kaede: Hiiyyaaaaaa!!

Girl: ...And the girl hands you a bunch of flowers...

Girl: And the petals...

Girl: burst open and reveal this monstrous mouth~!

Haruna Konomi: W-What's with that story... That's so scary...!

Natsume Kako: Maybe...

Kaede: ...Maybe... it's a witch...?

Haruna Konomi: Eh? Did something come to mind?

Kaede: Ah!! Noo...! Not at all...!

Natsume Kako: Y-Yep...! Yep...! No... We have no idea...!

Haruna Konomi: ? I see...

Girl: She's been sighted in the Shin-Nishi Ward!

Haruna Konomi: R-Right in our school area...?!

Girl: Also! She seems to appear on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Kaede: ...On Tuesdays... and Thursdays...?

Girl: Let's see what else... She doesn't give you a single flower, but a whole bouquet...

Girl: And the flowers are... Ummmm... What was their name...

Girl: They're... like for a wedding anniversary gift!

Kaede: Could they be... car... nations...?

Girl: Yes! They were carnations!

Haruna Konomi: A bouquet... of carnations...?!

Kaede: On Tuesdays and Thursdays...

Natsume Kako: A bouquet of carnations...

Haruna Konomi: "The Bursting Flower Girl"... Could that be...

Girl: ?

---------------------

Haruna Konomi: I can't believe we're the "Bursting Flower Girls"...

Haruna Konomi: We all worked hard so that everyone could enjoy some flowers...

Haruna Konomi: If such a terrifying rumour spreads... then everyone...

Haruna Konomi: They won't just dislike flowers, they'll grow to hate them...

Natsume Kako: But... flowers... they don't burst or anything...

Kaede: It's a scary rumour, isn't it...

Haruna Konomi: It really is. It's an exaggeration of reality...

Haruna Konomi: Before we knew it, the hearsay had already spread...

Kaede: We've become some sort of urban legend...

Haruna Konomi: How can I ever face the florist now...

Natsume Kako: I-I'm sorry...

Kaede: I'm sorry? Konomi-chan... I think this all started...

Kaede: Because I told you that they could be considered "presents"...

Haruna Konomi: That's...!

Haruna Konomi: Noo, you don't need to apologize for that.

Haruna Konomi: But... I wonder what we should do...

Natsume Kako: Ah...

Haruna Konomi: ?

Kid: *sob*... *sob*...!

Kaede: She's crying... What's going on?

Haruna Konomi: What's wrong?

Kid: My mom... She won't buy it...!

Kaede: She "won't buy" what?

Kid: This... ring...

Haruna Konomi: A "ring"?

Natsume Kako: Is she... talking about this...?

Natsume Kako: This... flyer says...

Kaede: "Party Jewellery Set"?

Haruna Konomi: They're all toys!

Kid: *tears up*... ...*sob*! *sob*...!

Kaede: A-Awawawa...!

Natsume Kako: W-What should we do...!

Haruna Konomi: When I was in trouble...

Haruna Konomi: Ah...

Konomi (child): "...*sob*... *sob*..."

Florist: "There, there... This old lady will give you something pretty."

Haruna Konomi: Heheh.

Kaede: Konomi-chan?

Haruna Konomi: This young lady will give you something pretty.

Haruna Konomi: See? Isn't this flower pretty?

Kid: *tears up*... Uuuu...

Kid: I don't want it! I want a ring!

Kid: I don't need flowers!

Haruna Konomi: I-I see...

Kaede: Ayaya...

Natsume Kako: Hey, Konomi-chan...! That flower... let me borrow it...!

Haruna Konomi: Kako-chan?

Natsume Kako: Then...

Natsume Kako: L-Look here...! It's a ring... made with a flower... Do you... like it...?

Kid: Uu... *tears up*... It's pretty...

Kid: It's a pretty... ring...!

Natsume Kako: ...!

Haruna Konomi: ...!

Kaede: You did it! Kako-chan, that was wonderful!

Natsume Kako: Eheheh...

Haruna Konomi: ...I see, that's right.

Kaede: ?

Haruna Konomi: Because... she actually wanted a ring!

Kaede: Konomi-chan?

Haruna Konomi: If I want everyone to like flowers, I should be trying harder...

-----------------------------------------------------

Part 3: Flower Scented Cakes

-----------------------------------------------------

Haruna Konomi: I noticed something when Kako-chan made that ring...

Haruna Konomi: The one who gives a gift must first understand the other person's feelings.

Haruna Konomi: Otherwise it won't work.

Natsume Kako: The other person's... feelings...?

Haruna Konomi: Yup. So far we have been...

Haruna Konomi: forcing flowers onto people without explaining a thing...

Haruna Konomi: We didn't bother understanding everyone else's feelings.

Kaede: I-I'm sorry...

Haruna Konomi: Noo! It's not your fault!

Haruna Konomi: It's my fault for not noticing it sooner.

Natsume Kako: That's...

Haruna Konomi: It's okay! Thank you, Kako-chan...

Haruna Konomi: We can use this as a chance to improve!

Kaede: A chance... to improve...?

Haruna Konomi: Yup. Before we give them out...

Haruna Konomi: We need to understand that not everyone notices the allure of flowers...

Haruna Konomi: I've been thinking that...

Haruna Konomi: I already liked flowers beforehand.

Haruna Konomi: "Please like flowers because they are wonderful!"

Haruna Konomi: It's not enough just saying that...

Haruna Konomi: We have to put in the effort... We have to devise a plan...

Haruna Konomi: I was thinking maybe that's what we need to do...

Natsume Kako: ...A plan... to get them to like flowers...

Haruna Konomi: Well, as for how we go about that... I'm still...

Haruna Konomi: not entirely sure...

Kaede: How to get young people... to like them...

Kaede: Ah!!

Kaede: Konomi-chan, you once made a bouquet in the shape of a bear, isn't that right?

Kaede: And it was soooo cute!

Kaede: Ummmm, does that help?

Kaede: It was way more eye-catching than a regular bouquet!

Natsume Kako: Yes...! I think it's a good idea...!

Haruna Konomi: You mean... flower arrangements?

Kaede: Right!

Kaede: The girl from before loved her ring of flower...

Kaede: So, Konomi-chan!

Kaede: You could make even more impressive flower arrangements than that!

Natsume Kako: T-That's true...

Kaede: A-Ahhh! I-I didn't mean it like that!

Natsume Kako: Noo! I think so, too...!

Natsume Kako: If Konomi-chan makes them... then I'm sure...

Natsume Kako: that you could arrange flowers that would make young people truly happy...!

Haruna Konomi: You two...

Haruna Konomi: ...Yup! Got it!

Haruna Konomi: It has to be eye-catching... and something you'd give to someone dear to you.

Haruna Konomi: I'll come up with a flower arrangement... that is just like that...!

Kaede: Wow...!

Haruna Konomi: If you two have any ideas, please let me know!

Natsume Kako: U-Understood...!

Kaede: When I got a flower as a present, it was for my birthday...

Natsume Kako: Ah! T-Then... you mean...?

Haruna Konomi: Yes! That's very good!

Kaede: Ah! Right, right! And so we could...

Natsume Kako: Yep! I think that's cool...!

Haruna Konomi: So, if we consider that and then this...

---------------------

Haruna Konomi: ...Finally, if I tie this with a ribbon...

Haruna Konomi: It's done!

Haruna Konomi: It's a birthday cake! Made with fifty flowers!

Kaede: Konomi-chan, you did great!

Haruna Konomi: You two did great as well.

Haruna Konomi: You gave me ideas, and then you helped me bring them to fruition...

Haruna Konomi: Thank you so very much for helping me every step of the way.

Natsume Kako: *nod*...! *nod*...!

Haruna Konomi: When it comes to giving gifts... you think of birthdays.

Haruna Konomi: So we decided to make a birthday cake made of flowers.

Kaede: A multicoloured cake... Just looking at it makes you happy...!

Haruna Konomi: And... looking is not all there is to do...!

Haruna Konomi: It's got chocolate and candy...

Haruna Konomi: The cake is packed full of real sweets!

Natsume Kako: It's a feast for the eyes... And for the stomach as well...

Natsume Kako: Kaede-chan, it's really wonderful...!

Kaede: Eheheh...

Haruna Konomi: Kaede-chan had the idea to make a real flower cake with sweets. And that's not all...

Natsume Kako: It's way prettier than anything I could have imagined...!

Natsume Kako: It's true, Konomi-chan, you did great...!

Haruna Konomi: And what about you, Kako-chan?

Haruna Konomi: You wanted the cake to be made with birth flowers...

Haruna Konomi: So as to communicate the greetings not with a card, but with the language of flowers...

Haruna Konomi: It is such a lovely idea.

Natsume Kako: T-That's...! ...That's...!

Kaede: And now, for both the giver and the receiver of this present...

Kaede: It will be a very special gift...!

Haruna Konomi: Yup. And...

Haruna Konomi: Since these kinds of flowers carry messages like that...

Haruna Konomi: I wonder... if this will make people appreciate flowers.

Haruna Konomi: That was Kako-chan's idea...

Haruna Konomi: The cakes represent each month and are made with specific birth flowers, all carrying a different message in the language of flowers...

Haruna Konomi: These flower birthday cakes... represent... the best collaboration the three of us have ever made together.

Haruna Konomi: I've put up some signs for our fair, too...

Haruna Konomi: Okay! Shall we call the florist?

Kaede: Yep! She'll be really surprised!

Natsume Kako: Yep...! Yep...!

---------------------

Haruna Konomi: Ma'am! Can you come see?

Haruna Konomi: This is going to attract a lot of young customers...

Haruna Konomi: We made birthday cakes with flowers!

Haruna Konomi: Kaede-chan and Kako-chan... All three of us made it, you see?

Florist: ...Huh... I see...

Haruna Konomi: ...Eh?

Natsume Kako: ...Ma'am...?

Kaede: I-Is... something wrong...?

Florist: ...I see... It's really well done, isn't it?

Haruna Konomi: Ma'am...?

Florist: ...Well... You can do this kind of stuff on your own now...

Haruna Konomi: Eh...?

Florist: I'll be leaving this shop to you...

Haruna Konomi: Eh... You'll leave me the...

Florist: I'm retiring... I am... tired...

Haruna Konomi: Ma'am...?! Did something happen...? That's so sudden...

Florist: It's not sudden...

Florist: I've been thinking about it ever since I got sick...

Florist: Ah~... Now, I can finally close the shop... Right!

Haruna Konomi: But that's...!

Kaede: Ah! It's not true! Konomi-chan!

Haruna Konomi: Eh...? What's not true...

Natsume Kako: She's right...! A witch's kiss...!

Haruna Konomi: A witch's kiss...?!

Natsume Kako: Ah...!

Kaede: Ah...!!

Natsume Kako: That's not it...! Err... umm...

Kaede: Yes, it was a mistake! It was nothing after all...!

Kaede: Just forget I said anything...

Haruna Konomi: No! No...!

Haruna Konomi: Why...?

Kaede: Eh...?

Haruna Konomi: Could... it be...

Natsume Kako: ...?

Haruna Konomi: You two... are magical girls...?

Kaede: Ah?! K-Konomi-chan...?!

Natsume Kako: Uuu, no way...?!

Haruna Konomi: So then...! The three of us were magical girls...!

Haruna Konomi: ...Well, it's not entirely unexpected...!

Haruna Konomi: In any case, explanations will have to wait...! Our fair will have to be postponed...!

Haruna Konomi: The witch is manipulating the florist... So the three of us will defeat it!!

Kaede: Yep!

Natsume Kako: Yep...!

---------------------

Haruna Konomi: (I am surprised...)

Haruna Konomi: (They are magical girls just like me...)

Haruna Konomi: (I can fight together with my friends...)

Haruna Konomi: (This is so reassuring...!)

Haruna Konomi: *sigh*... I'm glad that wasn't so hard...

Kaede: We only had to delay the fair for thirty minutes!

Haruna Konomi: Okay! Let's go while there are still a lot of customers!

Natsume Kako: That's right...!

Haruna Konomi: Let's do our best and try to sell them all!

Kaede: Yes!!

Natsume Kako: Y-Yes...!!

Haruna Konomi: Welcomeee to the shop! Are you looking for a birthday present...
