Plastic Taste { Joji a.u. }

the one where they go

"ああ！私はとても興奮しています！" ( Ah! I'm so excited! )

Emi smiled at the happy girl.

Haru had spent the day at Emi's home, and now it was night, and they were due to leave for the airport soon. 

Sota had offered to pick them up, but Emi's mom wanted to be the one to see the girls off. 

Plus, they'd have plenty of time to see him on the flight. They were looking at something along the lines of thirteen or fourteen hours. 

The girls were packed, ready to leave within the next few minutes. 

"あなたは何のために最も興奮していますか？" ( What are you most excited for? )

Emi snapped out of her thoughts. 

"Seeing the city." She responded. "You?"

"Eating hot dogs!" Haru exclaimed. 

"Hot dogs!" Emi exclaimed, laughing as she did so. 

"Of course!" Haru continued. "I've watched so many shows and seen how amazing they look! I bet they're delicious!" She stared off in the distance, as if she could see the tempting food in the room. 

Emi shook her head. 

"Girls!" 

Emi looked at her door just as her mom appeared. 

"Let's cracking!" 

Haru and Emi looked at each other before bursting out in laughter. 

Emi's mom wasn't completely fluent in English. 

"Let's get cracking." Emi corrected when she calmed down, standing up and dusting herself off. 

The Amari mother just squinted her eyes at her daughter before shrugging and walking out of the room. 

Emi helped Haru up, and in the car they went. 

On the journey, Emi couldn't help but watch the scenery pass through the window. 

She'd never been away from Japan. 

She found herself missing it already, even before she'd left. 

But soon enough, there she was, saying goodbye to her mother, and looking for the tall baseball player in the crowd, her arm linked with Haru's. 

It didn't take long to find him. 

His blue shirt was bright compared to the other people walking around. 

"Sota!" Haru shouted, jumping and waving her arm in the air. 

It caught his attention quickly, and he looked over, laughing and sending a smile to Emi. 

He walked over quickly. 

"Hey," he started. "You guys ready?" 

Haru smiled brightly and nodded. 

Sota laughed again and poked her forehead, causing her to swipe at him. 

He dodged her avidly. 

Suddenly, the voice rang from the speakers, calling their flight number.
