And the clerk brings the down vest because the temporary stitching seems to be over.

"Is this feathery?

"Yes."

Takeo tried to pinch his clothes lightly and his feathers had come down a lot.

"Sew it sideways because it's good at large intervals under your chest and over your stomach.

I think that would prevent feathers from going down there.

"Yes."

evening feathers on the spot before making temporary stitches.

When I try to lift it up again, the feathers stay properly in the chest, belly and hips area without lowering.

"You're doing good. I'll take care of the details.

Because I think the placement of side pockets, pockets, etc. on the chest depends on who wears them.

"I see.

Earlier, Master Kitamizato said 'Father's Day', could it be a different name?

"Of course you don't mind.

What I imagined was the sight of a little kid giving his father a wrapped down vest by saying 'Thank you all the time'.

"That's... yeah, that's a good sight.

Everyone in the store had an imaginary smile.

"Ah..."

"Dear Takeo, what's wrong with you?

Alice speaks to Takeo, who abruptly uttered words but immediately began to think of something.

"... no.

Manager, is there anything to say that you might change the name of Father's Day?

"Yeah, because there's a lot of fighting going on, so there's not a lot of one-parent families.

"Again... is that right...

On Father's Day, you might remember.

Takeo makes a difficult face.

"Then is it" Labor Appreciation Day "or something?

"Working...?

"I thought all the people I work for would be eligible.

"I see, that's good.

"... maybe we should make a down jacket as well, not just that and a down vest.

The sleeve area can be detachable for anything.

"I see, that's good too.

"Shall we make two types of down vests and down jackets?

In the S. M. L. LL manner.

"Okay.

Now, let me make this a contract, too.

Takeo thinks in his mind, "It's nothing good..." but he also decides to accept that he wants to stop the store from selling out of the others.

"... okay. The details of the contract may be the same as the previous one.

"What is it?

"This time it's just the idea, so the reward is good at 10%.

"... are you sure?

"Yeah, it wouldn't be that expensive for the general public.

Besides, the design probably comes out a lot, so how far does it apply?

"Down jacket, anything bearing the name of down vest is eligible for reward to Kitamizato.

We won't shut up when similar products come out.

"I see, I get it.... that's okay.

"Then I will bring it to Mr. Frederick when I have another contract.

"Yes.

... and yes.

"What is it?

"Maybe you should also try making bright colors so that women can wear them.

If you can wear the same thing as the man you like, you might be able to sell it.

"I see... I get it.

"I will come and buy it when it becomes a product.

"Huh? Can't you come at the prototype stage?

"Yeah. I'm looking forward to seeing what the store managers make this time.

The amount of cotton, the pockets, the collar... nothing I say.

If there's anything I think about it, I'll come up with a suggestion after it's released... well, I'll be fine.

Let me show you the true pinnacle of the designer.

Well, thank you.

Takeo took a seat and left the store with Alice.

Ralph stared at the two backwards, sighing.

------------------------

Takeo and Alice had come as far as to reach the Elvis Mansion soon.

"In the end, you didn't eat lunch.

Alice says as she looks at the paper bag.

"You did.

You kind of had a ton of clapping to decide and you didn't have time to eat.

"Yes."

"Shall we eat when we get back to the mansion?

I'll go to the kitchen at one end and warm up.

Oh, shall I also make the egg sandwich I served before?

"Are you sure!? Yay!"

"What if there's extra in the egg, huh?

"Yes! I expect.

Alice makes her face shine with joy.

Takeo smiled back when he saw Alice like that.

"But you make clothes again?

"Yeah, because I came up with an easy feather weave and good thermal insulation.

Actually, it's lighter than the coat.

"Really?

"Yeah, so maybe it's perfect for horseback riding.

Because I'm thinking about getting the design a little elaborate after it's commercially available to make a down vest dedicated to the Elvis family.

"Why?

"Because it may get cold from now on.

I was wondering if it would look good if I made matches for the people who work at the mansion.

I hope everyone is happy... "

"I'm fine. I think we'll all be happy.

"In the meantime, let's wait for it to be commercially available.

They went home smiling and talking.
