Humhumhuum♪

This looks just about done!

Mom, the mochi for the soup's baked and ready! I'll start by giving Dad... Three!

Oh, you did a wonderful job with the baking.

Mind getting Tsukasa's bowl ready next?

Okay! Tsukasa's gonna want... Five?

Hehe. Correct. I just received word from him, and he said he'll be home soon.

He went to see that show with Emu and the others today, right?

Yes, that's right. He was very excited about it because the show's received praise for how it involves the audience.

What do you think it was about?

I'm gonna ask him all about it when he gets back♪

(I also wanna give him what I got at the New Year's sales... I hope he gets home soon.)

I'm back!!!!!

Oh! Welcome back...!

Hehe. Right on cue.

The man with super duper luck has returned!!!

Super duper luck...?

Hah hah hah! Would you like to know what I'm talking about, Saki?

The thing is, after the show ended, we visited a shrine by the theatre and drew fortunes together...

I'm calling myself super duper lucky because my fortune wasn't just a “great blessing”. I drew a “super great blessing”! I couldn't ask for a better way to start off the new year!

What...? That's amazing!

I didn't know any shrines had those!

Yes, I felt sublime in that moment...

I mean, it was clearly no ordinary fortune since it had a golden glow to it.

I'm not sure if that's the reason, but I can feel myself overflowing with power!

Hehe. Then, you're gonna have to share some of that super duper luck with me this year♪

Yes, of course!

This blessing is proof that the Tenmas have another happy and prosperous year to look forward to!

Speaking of which, Saki, were you able to buy those things you wanted? You went to the New Year's sales with Shiho, yes?

Yeah! We got to check out a bunch of shops, and I got everything I wanted!

Oh, also. There's something I wanna give you, Tsukasa...

Give me?

Ta-daa!

Here, I got you a present!

Wh-What?! You got me a present?!

Can I open it?

Of course!

It's... A water bottle!

Yes, not only is it lightweight, it looks like it can hold quite a lot... It's just what I need for when I practice!

And its blue body is studded in stars.

Almost like the night sky.

Its design is fit for a future star such as myself!

Hehe♪ Guess what? Those stars...

I put them on your bottle!

Wh-Whaaaaaaat?!

You made this stellar night sky, Saki...?!

Yup!

Oh, they're even waterproof, so don't worry about them coming off!

They are?! You went through all this trouble just for me...?

Thank you, Saki...!

I shall cherish this forever!

Hehe. I'm glad you like it so much...!

Shiho actually helped me pick it out!

She did?

Yup!

I know that you've been practicing super duper hard, so I wanted to get you something that shows my support for you...

Which is when she suggested that I get you something you can use when you practice!

So that's how it went...

You put that much thought into this water bottle, Saki?

That means I'll be reminded of your support for me every time I use it! In other words, you'll be cheering me on...!

Thank you, Saki!

Hehe...

You've been doing that for me, Tsukasa!

For as long as I can remember!

Saki...

Wait a second! If you're constantly giving me energy and I'm constantly giving you energy, then that means we can keep looping around to give each other an infinite amount of energy for as long as we live!

Whoa! That makes us like the most powerful siblings ever!

Saki!

The mochi's getting huge!

Huh? Oh no...!

I forgot that I was making mochi for you, Tsukasa!

What?! You were making mochi for me, Saki?! In that case, I'll make some for you as well!

You will?

You're great at it, so I can't wait to have some!

Hah hah hah! Just leave it to me!

The mochi I make for you is guaranteed to be delicious!
