When I went into town to do some shopping for a class, I happened to meet Putra. She was not busy, so I asked her for help, and she followed me without asking. |
Putra is delighted for a job well done as I treat her to an ice-cream as a token of my gratitude. |
Putra |
"You sure know what you're doing, Conductor♪" |
Putra |
"My grandma used to buy me ice cream when I helped her with stuff~" |
Conductor |
I knew it was your intentions all along. Well, you really did help me, so I don't mind. |
Putra |
"Oh yeah, I've recently invented a new one again, a one-shot gag." |
Putra |
"May I? This is called the courting dance of the eldest son slime--" |
Putra suddenly crouched down on the side of the road and stood up, shaking and wobbling her body. I'd seriously want her to stop that kind of eccentric behaviour in a busy street. |
Putra |
"Not your thing huh, Conductor? I think people laughed at me a lot." |
I'm so worried about the stares and the whispering around us that I can't even think about whether it's funny or not. |
I was about to stop Putra, who kept going on, when a woman approached us from the sides. I thought she was going to give her a warning, but what she said was unexpected. |
--Please make my daughter laugh with your tricks, she couldn't laugh anymore. |
Putra |
"Eeeeh! Don't tell me you're a talent scout!?" |
Putra |
"Well, I was confident in my gag, but I didn't think I'd be so promising!" |
How can you be this positive...? While holding my forehead, I asked the lady who approached us for further details in passing. |
She told us that even that famous comedian, whose name everyone knows, has given up. She said that she had no one to rely on and was about to give up when she saw Putra and approached her - She's desperate and grasping at straws. |
Putra |
"If she's sick and can't really leave herr room for a long time, it's no wonder she gradually stopped laughing..." |
Putra |
"Yeah, I got this! I'll make your daughter laugh!! Umm... what's...?" |
I pulled Putra to the side of the road and nagged her off - How could you readily accept a request that a famous comedian couldn't? The woman is serious, they want to make their sick daughter laugh. Can't you just try a bit and say it wouldn't work? |
Putra |
"Oh my, that's how it is-?" |
Putra |
"Thanks for your concern, Conductor. But I can definitely make her laugh!" |
I highly doubt where her confidence comes from, but Putra's intentions seem to be more firm than I thought. |
Putra |
"Well then, tell your daughter to look forward to the show!" |
