Plum Blossoms & Snowflakes [Snowflakes 4]
[Morning of the second filming day, hotel courtyard]
Makoto: (......... I’m glad the snow is totally gone)
(The weather report said it could snow again, but I wonder? They say the mountain weather is prone to change fast……..)
(No. Since the day is sunny like this, for sure it’ll be alright)
(Besides, this is a nice view. I’m gonna take some pictures….. ♪)
........... ♪
Hajime: Good morning, Yuuki-senpai.
Makoto: Shino-kun, good morning. You woke up really early, hm?
Hajime: Fufu. You too, senpai.
I ended up waking up fast. I looked out of the window and saw Yuuki-senpai, then I came here.
Since it’s cold outside, I brought a warm tea for us. Feel free to help yourself.
Makoto: Ah, thanks ♪
Hajime: Ehehe. You’re welcome ♪
Here is the location of yesterday's filming too, right?? Do you like cameras?
Makoto: That’s right. I wouldn’t call it a hobby, but I enjoy it and I’m studying by myself little by little.
However, I don’t have a pro camera and I use the smartphone more.
Hajime: I think it’s enough. The cameras on today's smartphones are high performance.
What kind of photos do you usually take, senpai?
Makoto: Are you interested? I can show you, something like this ~
Hajime: …….oooooh. The cable car outside the hotel, the court food from the rest stop on the way here…..
The broadcast room equipment, the arcade sign, a classroom panoramic view…. fufu. It’s like catching a glimpse on your daily life, Yuuki-senpai ♪
Ah, but……
Makoto: Hm, what’s up?
Hajime: It just… I don’t see you in any photo, Yuuki-senpai.
There are some photos of Akehoshi-senpai and other friends, but… didn't you take them together?
Makoto: Ahaha. You’ve noticed it ~
To be honest, I don’t deal well with appearing in photos. I’m slowly getting over it, but I used to be a lot worse.
That’s the reason why taking photos of myself is still a bit complicated.
Hajime: I see….
…… so, don’t you wanna take a photo with me?
Makoto: Huh…? With you, Shino-kun?
Hajime: Yes. It takes some time to get used to taking selfies, right?
I do take it for social media, but at first I was kinda embarrassed about it too.
But I think it’s important to register my current self, because memories fade with time.
That’s why I think it would be good to register your current figure, Yuuki-senpai. Maybe it’s a bit more comfortable if it’s just the two of us.
Makoto: ..........
Hajime: Haha. I’m overstepping, right? I’m sorry.
You probably take a lot of photos with everyone from『Trickstar』for work, right? There is no reason to take photos with me…
Makoto: …… No, let’s take a photo together, Shino-kun.
Hajime: Ah…? Is it really ok?
Makoto: Yes. It’s true I take photos with others in my personal life and for work, but… I didn’t take any with you yet, Shino-kun.
It makes me a bit tense, but I think I want to register this moment.
Let’s take a photo before I change my mind, let me change to selfie mode now.
Ahh… It’s a little difficult to see my own face reflected on the screen…
Hajime: Do you want me to handle it?
Makoto: It’s alright, I can do it. …….Shino-kun, you’re a little out of frame, can you please come a bit closer?
Hajime: Yes, like this?
Makoto: Thanks. Ok, say “cheese”.........☆
Done, did I even take the photo well?
Ahaha ~ my smile is a bit forced. But一
I feel the “me” in this photo has a good expression. Eheh……. ♪
