| 0:04 | Hello. | |
| 0:05 | [Footsteps.] | |
| 0:05 | Oh my, Tomoe-chan! Welcome! | |
| 0:07 | Sorry to intrude. | |
| 0:08 | Tomoe, we don't have much here, but please make yourself at home. Jun! What are you doing? Prepare some for Tomoe at once. | |
| 0:18 | Yeah, yeah. | |
| 0:19 | [Footsteps.] | |
| 0:19 | Ah, it's all right, Jun-kun. I'll pour her some. | |
| 0:23 | Ah, that's... | |
| 0:25 | It's no problem, a thing like this. | |
| 0:25 | [Clinking of tableware.] | |
| 0:28 | Thank you, Sakurada-kun. | |
| 0:30 | That Jun, I wonder whyyy is he putting on such a nice-guy act?! | |
| 0:38 | [Tea being poured.] | |
| 0:35 | Suiseiseki. Could it be that you're jealous...? | |
| 0:38 | Y-you're wrong ~desu! | |
| 0:41 | [Bag rustling.] | |
| 0:41 | Ah, here. It's a gift for you. | |
| 0:44 | Thank you, Tomoe-chan! Oh my, strawberry rice cakes? Hina-chan will be so happy~! | |
| 0:50 | Um, where is Hinaichigo...? | |
| 0:53 | Ah... Yes, well, about that... | |
| 0:56 | She's sulking in Jun's room ~desu. | |
| 0:58 | Because Suiseiseki was teasing her. | |
| 1:01 | [Whimper.] You're wrong ~desu! That's an unjust accusation! I told you, Suiseiseki- | |
| 1:08 | [Giggle.] I see. Oh, that Hinaichigo! | |
| 1:12 | But, I wonder what happened with Hinaichigo? She seemed somehow different from her usual self. | |
| 1:18 | Yeah, that's for sure. | |
| 1:20 | Oh? | |
| 1:22 | She seemed kind of desperately stuck on the idea of some "candy house". | |
| 1:26 | Eh? A candy house? | |
| 1:28 | Yes. Hinaichigo was drawing a candy house in her sketch book. | |
| 1:34 | Well, just her usual scribblings ~desu... Hmm, well, if I had to choose one or the other, I'd feel it looks closer to a monster or something, though. | |
| 1:45 | ... Is something the matter? | |
| 1:48 | Eh? ... A-ah, well... I'm sorry. That's not it. I just felt a little bit concerned about... | |
| 1:56 | Huh? | |
| 1:58 | There would appear to be something deeper to this candy house, wouldn't there. | |
| 2:01 | Yes... I wouldn't really call it something deep, but... Earlier, I read a picture book to Hinaichigo. | |
| 2:10 | Ahh, Grimm's Fairy Tales, right? "Hansel and Gretel". | |
| 2:15 | [Snickering.] | |
| 2:17 | Grrrr-! | |
| 2:19 | So? | |
| 2:20 | Ah, yes... | |
| 2:22 | [Music stops.] | |
| 2:22 | At the part where Hansel and Gretel were abandoned, at first she became lonely and started to cry, but... when I read on to her, she found it extremely fun. Hinaichigo came to like that picture book so much that we reread it many times, and while reading it together she memorized all of the lines in it. | |
| 2:46 | So that was it. | |
| 2:48 | I see. Of course she'd get mad when someone made fun of a book she liked that much. | |
| 2:55 | [Whimper.] | |
| 2:57 | Let's go make a proper apology, okay, Suiseiseki? | |
| 3:00 | Mmm well, I have no choice ~desu. | |
| 3:04 | Hmmm... | |
| 3:07 | Is something wrong, Nori? | |
| 3:08 | What is it? Do you have to go to the bathroom? | |
| 3:10 | Y-you're wrong! That's not it. I just wondered, is that the only reason Hina-chan is... | |
| 3:16 | What do you mean? | |
| 3:19 | I just wondered, would that by itself be enough to pout so much that she wouldn't even eat her beloved snacks...? You could say that Hina-chan doesn't seem like her usual self. | |
| 3:28 | Now that you mention it, it's true. It's not possible for that Puny Ichigo, who is always such a glutton, to turn down snacks ~desu! | |
| 3:36 | Yeah, that's for sure. | |
| 3:38 | I know! If Tomoe-chan went to call her, then she might come downstairs! Right, Tomoe-chan? | |
| 3:43 | ... No, I'll abstain. | |
| 3:46 | Eh? | |
| 3:47 | ... Yes. Even if Tomoe were to resolve this, nothing would come of it. | |
| 3:51 | ... | |
| 3:53 | Hinaichigo needs some time to sort out her feelings. As do we, as well... After Tomoe has come all this way, shall we have our tea now before it ends up becoming cold? | |
| 4:07 | Ah. That's right. | |
| 4:10 | Yes. Well then, let's drink. | |
| 4:13 | Let's drink! | |
| 4:14 | [Clinking of tableware.] | |
| 4:15 | Let's drink! | |
| 4:15 | Let's drink ~desu! | |

| 4:19 | [Music starts.] | |
| 4:21 | Sorry to have intruded. | |
| 4:22 | I'm sorry, Tomoe-chan. Even though you went to the trouble of buying that gift for her, you weren't able to see Hina-chan... | |
| 4:29 | No, that's... | |
| 4:31 | Tomoe, come again any time you like. You would be welcome. | |
| 4:36 | [Smack.] | |
| 4:36 | Come now, Jun, you too...! | |
| 4:37 | Ow-! ... Mm, yeah, well... Hinaichigo would be glad, for one thing. | |
| 4:43 | [Giggle.] Thanks. Well then, thanks again for the tea. Now please excuse me. | |
| 4:50 | [Door closing.] | |

| 4:50 | [Birds singing.] | |
| 4:52 | [Sigh.] Hinaichigo... Yes. She'll be fine. After all... | |

| 5:09 | Tomoe... | |
| 5:13 | [In flashback:] "Once upon a time there was an older brother named Hansel and his younger sister named Gretel, who got along very well and were together wherever they went." | |
| 5:21 | [In flashback:] "They got along very well~!" | |
| 5:24 | [In flashback:] "However, their family was extremely poor, and all the two of them had to eat each day was a single piece of bread. The two of them would each take half of the piece of bread and eat it." | |
| 5:38 | [In flashback:] "Half a piece of bread~!" | |
| 5:40 | [Page turning.] | |
| 5:41 | [In flashback:] "One day, their mother took Hansel and Gretel out to gather berries." | |
| 5:47 | [In flashback:] "Took them to gather berries~!" | |
| 5:50 | [In flashback:] "Their mother brought them into the deep, dark forest, to a thicket in which many raspberries were growing." | |
| 5:59 | [In flashback:] "Brought them there~!" | |
