The Tuesday Course took
place as usual today.
Mari-san appeared
first today, that was unusual.
“Hello Pinot! How are
you?” said Mari-san.
“I’m fine, thank you.
And you?”
Hiroko-san arrived
later with a huge fragrant white bloom.
My mum didn’t know
what kind of flower it was because it was huge.
“What’s that? What a
huge flower – beautiful!”
“It’s magnolia from my
garden.”
“Really!? I’ve never
seen such a huge one.”
“Where is Pinot?”
“He’s upstairs.”
“It’s gorgeous, isn’t
it?”
The three of them were
really excited about it. I could hear they were speaking very loudly.
After the lesson, I
went slowly downstairs.
“Ah, I love this
beautiful, creamy-white, fragrant flower. Thank you, Hiroko-san,” I murmured.
Hi Pinot. Tomorrow, the 6th of June is your 12th birthday, isn't it? My my, time flies when you are having fun.
返信削除Wishing you a very happy birthday and many many happy returns.
With lots of love from uncle T and auntie K, xxx
Thanks lot! I could have my 12th birthday. Whoopee!
削除My dad gave me some yoghurt after dinner. Oh, such a treat – my favourite! When are you in Tokyo again? How is Alfie? I want to see you all, really!
Alfie's missing you too Pinot. It will be so so nice if you two can come together again, but...
