Chapter 7

If you don’t have a book, you can make it yourself.

 

So, when I came to the conclusion, my mood was positive, but there was no paper in the house. That was confirmed when I searched the house.

 

In other words, I have no choice but to buy paper, but I do not know where it is sold. Unfortunately, there are no convenience stores, home centers, supermarkets, or stationery stores in the city.

 

Now, where is the paper sold?

 

The uncle of the general store said, “You have to copy the book yourself,” so I think that blank books are being sold.

 

But where is it?

 

Maybe there is a paper shop that handles only paper.

 

In Japan, writing in a loose leaf, writing in a notebook, writing on a copy sheet and binding with staples is completed in a matter of seconds, but there are many problems here.

 

There is no paper in the house, so to make a book you have to start by looking for paper.

 

Today, my mother also went to work from the morning, so there are only Turi and I in the house. Naturally, there is only Turi who can solve the question.

 

“Turi, do you know where ‘paper’ is sold?”

 

“What did you say, Mine?”

 

“So,” Paper “… Oh!”

 

I remember the appearance of Turi shaking his braid and tilting his neck. This is the face when I couldn’t understand my language in Japanese.

 

Bad. I don’t know what to say “paper” in these words.

 

Failed! It would have been nice to have a general store tell me what to say!

 

“… I don’t know, right?”

 

“I’m sorry. I don’t understand. It’s an interesting word.”

 

I sighed deeply, sighing and sighing.

 

Actually, the problem with making a book is not only not knowing the store that sells the paper. I don’t know where the pencils and pens are sold.

 

As far as the situation of this house and town is concerned, I think there is no mechanical pencil or ballpoint pen. It is suspicious that a fountain pen exists.

 

Now, what should a writing instrument be used in such a situation? And how do you get a writing instrument?

 

The biggest problem is that I cannot go out for shopping alone looking for materials and there is nothing ahead of me.

 

I was really troubled.

 

“Oh! If I see my father, I forget it!”

 

Turi voices from the kitchen. When I moved slowly and went to the kitchen, Turi was holding a package.

 

Surely, this morning my father wakes up and said, “I’ll use it for today’s work,” and said in a busy morning time, “Why don’t you say earlier ?!” It is a thing that made my mother’s mood twitch.

 

My back was thrilled when I thought of anger when my mother knew that I had forgotten this, even though I was searching for the storeroom.

 

“Turi, I’m sure my mother gets angry, right?”
 

“Do you think so too?”

 

I don’t know if this is a person in the world or only for this family, but the emotions are very straightforward. When you laugh, you laugh like a fool. When you get angry, you get angry. In other words, my angry mother is really scared.

 

“Turi, this should be delivered to my dad?”

 

“… Well, but it’s only about Mine …”

 

When I went to wash the dishes, I got out of my bedroom and cried. When you go to the market with your mother, you lose your mind and fall down.

 

The family’s confidence in me is at the bottom, so Turi doesn’t seem to leave me alone.

 

“If you don’t have a dad, you’re in trouble?”

 

“… Mine, can you walk to the gate?”

 

It seems that Turi decided to accompany me instead of answering me.

 

When I went to the market, I was a little anxious, but my mother’s anger later was scared. I hold a fist and try to make an appeal.

 

“I will do my best”

 

“Well, let’s go”

 

Just like when I went shopping with my mother, I put on a lot of clothes and left with a package.

 

Even if you say you wear a lot of clothes, it’s not for fashion. It is completely for cold protection.

 

By the way, I have 2 underwear, 2 woolen dresses and 1 woolen sweater. Two pieces like a crotch of yarn. Two yarn socks. Put on all the clothes you have.

 

“Turi is heavy and difficult to move?”

 

“But if you don’t wear them all, you don’t know where the wind comes from, because they are all spliced ​​clothes. Especially, Mine is easy to catch a cold, so you have to wear it properly”

 

My mother was dressed without any questions, but could Turi be able to soften it? I thought, but Turi, who has a strong sense of responsibility, would not give up unless she was out in a state where my physical condition would deteriorate.

 

I gave up everything, but thanks to that, it is very difficult to move.

 

Turi is strong, so it’s not too much to wear. In addition, children often go to pick up firewood in nearby forests, ask mothers to go to deliver to the neighborhood, often go out and have physical strength.

 

However, I have no physical strength or speed. There is only the weight of clothes.

 

“Mine, are you okay?”

 

“Ze, ze … walk slowly, it’s okay”

 

When I went down the stairs, I was short of breath as before.

 

I walk at my own pace. If you fall down forcibly, you will be in trouble. It is important to build trust from a small place.

 

Even so, cobblestones are difficult to walk …

 

If you are bumpy and don’t walk carefully, you’ll likely get caught and fall quickly. I decided to walk only looking at my feet, leaving everything around to Turi holding my hands.

 

“That? Turijan! What are you doing?”

 

I raised my face to the boy’s voice reverberating from a distance.

 

Three boys with backpacks and bows rushed. The red, gold, and pink heads are colorful, and they pay attention to their heads.

 

Originally the clothes that would have been dyed properly are also colored like a light gray with a stain of soil and food, and it is full of splices whether they are wearing a bow.

 

I think that the level of living is about the same, because it doesn’t look much different from what I’m wearing.

 

“Ah, Ralph! Lutz and Faye are together!”

 

Since Turi is familiar, it may be somewhat related to Mine himself. With a little emphasis on the temple, I searched for Mine’s memory.

 

Oh, after all. Oh my neighbor?

 

Ralf in the same year as Turi. Ralph is redhead and has the best physique. Organizer of children. It feels like everyone ’s grandpa.

 

Faye is the same year as Turi. She has a pink head and looks like a mischievous kid. I don’t know how much I can do for my sick mine, so I don’t get close enough, so I don’t have much memory.

 

Ralph’s younger brother is blonde and Lutz is the same age as me. It ’s cute to feel like a boy who wants to stretch out.

 

The three are members who often go together when Turi goes to the forest, and it seems that Mine has taken him to the forest together. Only a few outings are clearly remembered compared to other memories.

 

While I turned my consciousness toward the person searching for memory, Turi was exchanging words with Ralph as if he was playing.

 

“My father lost something, so I’m going to deliver it to the gate. Are Ralphs the forest?”

 

“Yes, let’s go together to the gate”

 

“Yeah!”

 

If you see Tully’s sparkling smile talking to Ralph, you can see that Tully is usually impossible.

 

After all, it is more fun to go to the forest with everyone and collect it than a lullaby? I ’m sorry, I ’m my little sister.

 

But after a few days, my fever fell, and I think it’s okay to go out. For example, go to find a store that sells paper.

 

As soon as Ralph and his team were together, the pace of Turi’s walking suddenly increased, even though it was adjusting to my speed.

 

While holding hands, it seems to be dragged and the legs get tangled.

 

“Wow!”

 

“Mine !?”

 

Turi stopped his foot, so he didn’t fall down, but got his knees on the spot.

 

“I ’m sorry, Mine. Are you okay?”

 

“… Yes”

 

Although it doesn’t hurt, it’s quite difficult to get up once you sit down. I want to take a break.

 

When I thought it was a little stuffy, I reached out my hand.

 

“… Now, Mine. I’ll do it on my back.”

 

Lutz, what a great child!

 

According to Mine’s memory, Lutz is always treated as Ralph or Faye, so even though she is the same year, she makes a big word for sick and small Mine. He is a gentleman and promising boy who doesn’t have physical strength and scolds Mine, who quickly becomes sluggish, takes his luggage, and so on.

 

As an added bonus, Lutz’s blondes are more familiar to me than pink and green, so I can be reassured mentally.

 

“Mine, did you get hot again? It looks spicy and I’ll carry it on my back.”

 

Lutz is happy. Really? But even though it ’s bigger than me, it ’s bad and I ’m worried that it ’s bad to have Rutz in the same year.

 

When I was worried about what to do, Ralf, who exhaled lightly, opened his mouth as he lowered his baggage.

 

“If Lutz is on his back, he will never reach the forest. I will carry Mine on your back. You hold my bow. Faye is a backpack.”

 

“Ralph brother …”

 

Lutz is fond of Ralf in dissatisfaction. Maybe I felt like I was intercepted.

 

“Lutz was most worried. Kindness. Thank you, Lutz. I was happy.”

 

¡When I laugh, I hold the hand of Lutz and give up a lot.

 

Lutz laughed shyly and grabbed Ralph’s bow gently, whether he was satisfied that he was admitted to be worried.

 

This kind of gentle part of the child must be given up and stretched out. See, as a spiritual adult.

 

“Come on, come on.”

 

“Yeah, thank you, Ralph”

 

¡Larf on Ralf’s back, slightly larger than Turi, lean on it and put your weight on it. You don’t need to be ashamed of the little girl. I have not refused.

 

Ralph, who carried me, started walking with a firm gait. When 30-40cm visibility increased, the scenery changed considerably. Specifically, I could only see the stones at my feet, but now I can see the cityscape properly.

 

And because the speed that was adjusted to me is the original speed, the flow of scenery is uneven.

 

“Wow, it’s high! Fast!”

 

“Don’t get so excited? I’ll get hot again”

 

“Yes, be careful”

 

ehhehe, a sick little girl is good value.

 

Even so, the boys who come home with the bag on their back are powerful. My muscles are pretty tight for my child.

 

My physique is very different compared to the Japanese elementary school lower grades I remember. Because the living environment and the race itself are different, it may not be comparable.

 

And what you should not compare with Japan is the same.

 

Dirty things that flow a little from the narrow alleys, or donkeys that cross the main street pass by dropping their shit.

 

I don’t want to see the filth.

 

Because it was a sight that I couldn’t see in Japan, I was so surprised that my eyes would go there!

 

Unlike when I went to the market, I can’t see the inside of the shop on the ground floor at all because of walking on the craftsman street. The store that only handles merchandise was a glass window, but here you can only see a sign that was lowered to the door.

 

As a bonus, similar buildings of the same color are lined up in a row, so I have just been attracted to something that stands out. I’m not bad.

 

“Ralph, are you okay? Mine, isn’t it heavy?”

 

Tul asks Ralph, comparing Ralph and me, who is carrying his anxiety. Ralph shakes his body and takes me back on his back, then opens his mouth with a slight back to his face.

 

“Okay. Mine is tiny and light, and wouldn’t you be in trouble if you walked?”

 

I want to help Turi, who is in trouble, as I guess from shy expression and words. Do you want to be thankful to Turi?

 

Hoho, Ralph boy. Is your aim at our home?

 

If you want to shoot a general, you’ll start with a horse. Well, I can be a horse.

 

Good, grow up as it is, childhood friend love!

 

…… Of course, this is my own delusion.

 

Both are young and don’t feel any love at all, but because there is no book entertainment, I’d like to forgive them to delusion and write in the brain.

 

Because Ralph, he said, “Turi, you do n’t smell good” and smells Turi’s braid.

 

Are you a cartoon hero? ? I want to get a lot.

 

“Is it true? Thank you”, Turi is also dyed cheeks.

 

Even if I was 22 years old, I didn’t have a sweet and sour experience, but if 6-year-old Turi had such a sweet atmosphere, I would like to make a delusion with my back on my back.

 

I haven’t accepted the words that I’m not a man because I’ve been reading this book, I’m just imagining, and I’m in a dream world.

 

This is because it has been told not only by family members but also by Shu-chan next door.

 

Extra care. Huh?

 

While I was a little conscious of the frustrating memories in Japan, Ralf and Turi’s childhood love changed into a reverse Harlem story centered on Turi.

 

“It’s really good smell”

 

“Which?”

 

Talking that way, Faye and Lutz are sniffing their face close to the Turi braid.

 

If this is an old man and woman, it’s completely reversed.

 

“The hair is gorgeous”

 

“What did you do?”

 

Mufufufu. It would be so. It would be so.

 

praised by the reverse her member with a surprised face, I whispered many times with Ralf’s back.

 

«Popli with dried scented flowers is put in a costume box, hot water that is boiled when making rice first, wipe the body with Turi together, and hair with herbal oil Moisturizing and brushing carefully, improving the hygienic environment of the house little by little.

 

It seems that the effect of my efforts has already come out.

 

By the way, Ralph and others are a little smelly. It’s a normal odor around here, so I’m getting used to it, but the smelly thing smells. I don’t put it in my mouth because it is a position that Ralf is carrying on my back, but it smells.

 

Everyone wants to wash with soap together. It’s a shame that there is no animal soap that smells good enough to wash your body.

 

Oh, I want a soap that can be washed by hand.

 

Lutz pulled my hair when I was skipping thoughts. Smell as if you were in Turi.

 

“Mine also smells good. And when I tied my hair, my face looked good and I was pretty.”

 

Light green eyes stare at me and innocuously squint.

 

Yabai! Lutz, I have dye correction! “Blonde green eyes just look good!

 

Hiahahahahah! The other party is an infant! Even though I know that there is no intention, this composition is shy! Please stop! It ’s a good year and I ’ve never had that experience, so I ’m having trouble dealing with it!

 

I’m the only person in my heart who is stuck. Everyone else is already talking about what can be harvested in the forest and how much is the first snow.

 

It seems that he hate Lutz who is proud of his bow progressing while fainting me.

 

Unlike Turi, who can thank you with a bite, I could only do it.

 

My heart is still talking.

 

It’s normal here to be able to do this calmly at the age of 5-6! ?

 

A little, this world! Isn’t it too bad for me to be a shy and embarrassed Reiko Yamato?

 

…… Yes, there. Who is Yasuko Yamato? Don’t say!
