“Where are we going?” Maya asked. She was leading the other girls, bouncing more than walking.
“That’s a surprise,” Midori said, with a laugh tugging at her lips.
“Dad, where are we going?” Chino asked more quietly than the others. She held Takahiro’s hand on one side by choice, and Cocoa’s on the other at Cocoa’s insistence.
“You’ll know when we #arrive,” he answered. “It was Midori’s idea, and it’s her surprise.” His smile radiated joy equal to Midori’s.
“I know,” Cocoa said. “We’re going to the park, the one with the carousel.”
“The park is the other way,” Chiya said, pointing. Her kimono sleeves caught the cool morning breeze. The green of her dress matched the summer vegetation. Next to her friends in casual dress, she looked regal.
“It’s toward the lake,” Rize said. “Perhaps we're going swimming?” Her glance strayed to Syaro. Catching her eye, she nodded thanks for teaching her to swim.
“It can’t be swimming; we didn’t bring swimsuits," Megu said.
The two adults nodded in agreement. Instead of answering, they listened to the girls' chatter.
Syaro finally spoke. “I know where we’re going, and you should too, Chiya. We were just talking about it last night.”
“Oh, the…”
“Shush,” the adults said, almost drowned out by the chorus of “Where, where, where are we going?”
“Look! It says ‘#Crane #Viewing.’” Cocoa pointed to a pastel blue banner.
“Go on, and run ahead if you want, but don’t bother anyone.” No sooner had Takahiro spoken than the younger girls began running. Chiya and Syaro continued strolling, while Rize and Cocoa decided which group to join. The former joined the “Ladylike” group, while Cocoa continued looking after Chino and the rest of ChiMaME. "I have to look after my little sister.”
Midori chuckled and said, “That's the duty of a big sister.”
Takahiro winked at Midori knowingly and said to Cocoa, “Go on, here is the money to buy tickets. We'll join you.”
