┌────────────────────────────────────┐
｜ [Maki's Kitchen] ｜
｜ ｜
｜ "Irasshai-mase," said Maki as two customers entered her restaurant, ｜
｜Maki's Kitchen. Maki had joined her family business at the age of 19 ｜
｜when her father became ill. After he recovered, Maki decided to ｜
｜continue. Eventually, Maki's parents retired and she became the owner. ｜
｜Maki had many regular customers who came not only for the delicious ｜
｜food, but also to sit at the counter and talk to her. Although her ｜
｜business was doing very well, Maki occasionally daydreamed about ｜
｜something different. ｜
｜ "Can we sit at the counter?" she heard. It was her old friends, Takuya｜
｜and Kasumi. A phone call a few weeks earlier from Kasumi to Takuya had ｜
｜given them the idea to visit Maki and surprise her. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ ◆◆◆◆◆ ｜
｜ ｜
｜ Takuya's phone vibrated, and he saw a familiar name, Kasumi. ｜
｜ "Kasumi!" ｜
｜ "Hi, Takuya, I saw you in the newspaper. Congratulations!" ｜
｜ "Thanks. Hey, you weren't at our 20th high school reunion last month."｜
｜ "No, I couldn't make it. I can't believe it's been 20 years since we ｜
｜graduated. Actually, I was calling to ask if you've seen Maki recently."｜
｜ ｜
｜ ◆◆◆◆◆ ｜
｜ ｜
｜ Takuya's family had moved to Kawanaka Town shortly before he started ｜
｜high school. He joined the drama club, where he met Maki and Kasumi. The｜
｜three became inseparable. After graduation, Takuya left Kawanaka to ｜
｜become an actor, while Maki and Kasumi remained. Maki had decided she ｜
｜wanted to study at university and enrolled in a preparatory school. ｜
｜Kasumi, on the other hand, started her career. Takuya tried out for ｜
｜various acting roles but was constantly rejected; eventually, he quit. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ Exactly one year after graduation, Takuya returned to Kawanaka with ｜
｜his dreams destroyed. He called Maki, who offered her sympathy. He was ｜
｜surprised to learn that Maki had abandoned her plan to attend university｜
｜because she had to manage her family's restaurant. Her first day of work｜
｜had been the day he called. For some reason, Takuya could not resist ｜
｜giving Maki some advice. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ "Maki, I've always thought your family's restaurant should change the ｜
｜coffee it serves. I think people in Kawanaka want a bolder flavor. I'd ｜
｜be happy to recommend a different brand," he said. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ "Takuya, you really know your coffee. Hey, I was walking by Cafe ｜
｜Kawanaka nad saw a help-wanted sign. You should apply!" Maki replied. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ Takuya was hired by Cafe Kawanaka and became fascinated by the science｜
｜of coffee making. On the one-year anniversary of his employment, Takuya ｜
｜was talking to Maki at her restaurant. ｜
｜ "Maki," he said, "do you know what my dream is?" ｜
｜ "It must have something to do with coffee." ｜
｜ "That's right! It's to have my own coffee business." ｜
｜ "I can't imagine a better person for it. What are you waiting for?" ｜
｜ Maki's encouragement inspired Takuya. He quit his job, purchased a ｜
｜coffee bean roaster, and began roasting beans. Maki had a sign in her ｜
｜restaurant saying, "We proudly serve Takuya's Coffee," and this ｜
｜publicity helped the coffee gain popularity in Kawanaka. Takuya started ｜
｜making good money selling his beans. Eventually, he opened his own cafe ｜
｜and became a successful business owner. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ ◆◆◆◆◆ ｜
｜ ｜
｜ Kasumi was reading the newspaper when she saw the headline: TAKUYA'S ｜
｜CAFE ATTRACTING TOURISTS TO KAWANAKA TOWN. "Who would have thought that ｜
｜Takuya would be so successful?" Kasumi thought to herself as she ｜
｜reflected on her past. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ In the high school drama club, Kasumi's duty was to put make-up on the｜
｜actors. No one could do it better than her. Maki noticed this and saw ｜
｜that a cosmetics company called Beautella was advertising for ｜
｜salespeople. She encouraged Kasumi to apply, and after graduation, she ｜
｜became an employee of Beautella. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ The work was tough; Kasumi went door to door selling cosmetics. On bad｜
｜days, she would call Maki, who would lift her spirits. One day, Maki had｜
｜an idea, "Doesn't Beautella do make-up workshops? I think you are more ｜
｜suited for that. You can show people how to use the make-up. They'll ｜
｜love the way they look and buy lot of cosmetics!" ｜
｜ ｜
｜ Kasumi's company agreed to let her do workshops, and they were a hit! ｜
｜Kasumi's sales were so good that eight months out of high school, she ｜
｜had been promoted, moving to the big city of Ishijima. Since then, she ｜
｜had steadily climbed her way up the company ladder until she had been ｜
｜named vice-president of Beautella this year. ｜
｜ ｜
｜ "I wouldn't be vice-president now without Maki," she thought, "she ｜
｜helped me when I was struggling, but I was too absorbed with my work in ｜
｜Ishijima to give her support when she had to quit her preparatory ｜
｜school." Glancing back to the article, she decided to call Takuya. ｜
