"Oh, you're the editor's truth, aren't you?

"That's right. We're out of time."

Souma Truth stands up and gives her head up for Ume's visit.

Mr. Ume slapped me on the shoulder when I was next to him. [M]

"No, no, it's been a while."

"It hurts."

"After that, I hardly ever heard from him. I didn't know yesterday was an award ceremony! If you'd told me, I would have rushed."

"I won't tell you, and Mr. Ume won't rush in the first place"

Today Ume wore a skirt with a black and white check pattern on her green shirt.

Her hair was stretched, but she was stunningly golden.

Not too many Japanese people would look good with blonde hair so far.

"You two are close, right?"

"Because it's Cephre!

"To?"

Mr. Truth dots his eyes on Mr. Ume's remarks.

After taking a sigh, I snapped my neck.

"Stop joking"

"You're not even kidding, are you? I have an appointment to be Sephre."

"Really, don't. We have other customers."

"Huh? You just can't see me, are you?

Seeing the interaction between Ume and me is even more frightening to Mr. Truth.

Master and Ume seem to be being cordial, and the wiener coffee was put on the table even though they didn't order anything.

"So, what kind of gathering is this?

And Ume smiles at me for a sip of coffee.

Strangely tense, but don't touch on that.

"You kept quiet about nominating me as a photographer!

"I said nominations, but I just said... I don't have the right to make decisions. Right, Mr. Truth?"

When asked, Mr. Truth nodded whether he had finally guessed his turn.

"That's right. Of course I want to reflect the intentions of the original author to the fullest, but that is not the only decision I can make. The decision was taken in view of the intention of the supervisor and, of course, of experience and uke on the market"

"I don't have any experience, though."

Ume winks at me.

I'm kind of angry, but I asked softly.

"But shouldn't I tell you?

"Then shouldn't I tell you that the boy was also taking pictures? I can't believe you're hiding that you won an award in the first place..."

"I didn't mean to hide it. That's not what I'm supposed to say."

"Terrible! Even though it's sephre!?

I don't even want to say it back anymore.

Sometimes it's a public place, and of course I'm not very vocal.

But of course Mr. Truth can hear you.

"Ah... er..."

"Mr. Truth, I'm kidding...... really, Mr. Ume, give me a break"

When I shrugged my shoulder, Mr. Ume saw Mr. Truth.

"I knew you were going to take it in Nishien Town?

"Ah... Ah, yes, yes..."

Suddenly we talked about work, so Mr. Truth can't hide the confusion.

To switch or have a cup of coffee and then say it again.

"I'm going to take it in Nishien Town."

"Since when?

"I think it's been since the movie was shot"

Ume taking out the schedule book.

"So... after December?

"Ah... uh..."

Hurry up and take out the schedule book, Mr. Truth confirms.

"Well, I guess that's realistic"

So I thought of something, and I pinched my mouth.

"But the stage of the work is autumn, right?

"That's right, boy"

And Mr. Ume slaps me on the shoulder.

"Well, it feels like summer through autumn. The movie starts next month, so we can make it."

Probably got a lot to do.

I'm not familiar with it, but there's something called editing.

"Do you mean to be photographed?"

Anxiously Mr. Truth asks the question.

Mr. Ume nods.

"Yes, yes. The boy's picture wouldn't be processed or anything, would it?

"Yeah, I don't have that kind of technology, and I don't want to use it if I do."

"Then what happens?

I answered after thinking. [M]

"Indoors are the main thing, and in the case of shooting outside, the background is pretty bogged down. If you're bald like a tree, you'll find out even in winter... and then focus on Naeka's up"

"None of this is a good idea."

"I think so. Because I think the background should be decent after all. Works too."

"Right..."

Mr. Ume worried about putting his arms together.

So Mr. Truth spoke, roughly like that.

"Oh, I'm sorry... I didn't realize..."

"No, because I didn't like it at the meeting earlier."

"What should I do?

And, Mr. Truth alternated between Ume and me.

You think it's your failure, you seem terribly sorry.

"Is it a decision to publish it next January?

"It's a decision. Out of season, but they don't really fluctuate in terms of audience mobilization."

"It's not a good idea to delay publishing photo albums."

The question was answered by Mr. Truth.

"Right. I want to aim for synergies..."

"So you're saying you can't reschedule either way"

"There's only one way"

Me and Ume turn a blind eye to what Mr. Truth said at the same time.

Then Mr. Truth answered in a low voice.

"I'm taking it by the end of the month."

"That's it!

And Mr. Ume stood up with a full grin.

At the same time a customer came in, so soon Mr. Ume would sit in the chair.

When I laugh like I'm so lit, I tap my shoulder and snap.

"Let's do that. It's perfect for the season."

"So, but... what's Mr. Naeka's schedule?

"I'll do something about it. It's Sunday, so I'll get back to your office tomorrow. And I need permission from the director and Takamizawa."

Mr. Truth takes notes on his notebook, which he considers to be exasperating.

"All right, all right! Just decided to do it in a good way, move the place and hit it off!

"Ume will just want a drink..."

"Boy, I'm gonna get you to hang out!

"That's why I'm a minor. Besides, it's school tomorrow, so you can't be too late, can you?

"So, where are we going?

As the two of them proceeded to remove each other like that, Mr. Truth, who had finished his note, raised his hand slightly.

Ume and I will give Truth time to speak.

I blushed my cheeks and asked for a toad.

"Me too, okay...?

"What?

"I don't care if you join that launch"

Me and Ume, of course, were going to, so I get cramped with answers.

"Oh, uh..."

"Yeah... of course."

That was Ume's response as she shredded momentum.
