Intro
As I open the door to the usual fancy gift shop, a small bell rings with a chime.
Inside the shop, surrounded by colorful plushies and trinkets, the clerk looks over and smiles softly.
Ah, welcome! You came again today, didn't you?
Being greeted by the kind voice of the clerk I admire──Minoru-san──makes me feel strangely glad that I came here today.
Minoru-san walks over, leans down slightly, and whispers to me secretly.
