Story of Colors (Part 1)

It is the summer holidays. The sun is shining bright and with the birds flying across the sky, a cool breeze blowing through the heat of the day.


(Here I introduce the first character)
Name: Lyra Kitahara (北原 ライラ)
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Character Attributes: Quiet, shy

Lyra, who is spending her summer holidays at home in the countryside is enjoying the breeze in the meadow down the path from home.
: "Kimochi ne~" ("Such good feeling")

Mum: "Lyra!"
Lyra: "Hai, okaa-san" ("Yes, mum")
Mum: "Chotto kochira e tasukete kudasai!" ("Can you come here and help for a bit?")
Lyra: "Hai, ima sugu!" ("Yes, right away")

Lyra runs home and helps her mum out. Well, it's the summer holidays and a tradition for the Kitahara family is to have a day set where all members of the family would have dinner together. Being the only child in the family, such gathering would mean a lot for Lyra; who else could she have had besides her friends? Her family of course!

During dinner, mum mentioned about going to the marketplace the following day. That certainly brought trill to Lyra; for Lyra, going to the marketplace is almost as fun as shopping!

After dinner, Lyra sits at the verandah feeling the night breeze and listening to the songs of the night creatures. In her mind was filled with thoughts about the time she was gonna have at the marketplace. What excitement! That must be what she was thinking, even to bedtime.

Lyra: "Oyasuminasai, otou-san to okaa-san" ("Goodnight, dad and mum")
Dad, mum: "Oyasumi" ("Goodnight")
mum: "Ashita ni genki shimashou, ne~" ("Let's be ready for tomorrow, cheers")
