Playing with plastic bags

My dad and mum have gone to Masae-chan’s flat near the embassy where my mum goes once a week. This evening, they are having dinner together with their old friend, Mako-chan from Kyushu.

Well, what shall I do on my own?

Um, I might as well play with plastic bags − just for fun!

 

––At night.

My mum said: “Well, what were you doing, Pinot? You didn’t play with plastic bags, did you? It’s dangerous. You might suffocate, you know. Listen, we had a nice time this evening – beautiful food! We didn’t know Masae-chan was such a good cook . . .” she went on and on.

"Well, I’m off, " I murmured and went upstairs.
