"Psst! Arata!"

Kaede calls for him.

He looks over his shoulder and sees Kaede peeking around the corner.

She motions him to come over and he does so.

"What's wrong?"

"Um... We have a slight problem..."

"We don't have enough?"

She nods her head.

"Damn, what should we do now?"

He curses.

"Well... We do have that other thing..."

She reveals to him.

"No... Not that thing..."

"Well! We're short on Arata Plushies! So might as well give it!"

"But... That's embarrassing to give out!"

"So what? At least you're not the one holding it in public!"

"Yeah... But..."

"Besides, we only gave out very few of them and we still have a lot of them.
...And I already have three of them..."

"What was that last part?"

"Nothing! Just go back there and give it to him!"

He sighs and walks to the back to grab it.

"Sighs and reluctantly goes to the back room to grab them. Fine then."

"Why are you narrating your own actions?"

"Because I'm stalling for time. Even if it's just a little bit."

Arata leaves to the back room.

Kaede sighs and walks toward the bar.

Who are these guys...? They're weird...
