Lilja
(This country's fashion trends are completely different from Europe's. The standards of beauty are different, which makes it interesting to observe. And...)

Lilja
(Skincare testers, makeup pouches, discount coupons for spa treatments. Even though it's just one magazine, it comes with so many freebies.)

Lilja
(That means they're really eager to be beautiful. Continuing to be dedicated to beauty is a wonderful thing...)

Lilja
Hmm? ...June bride special feature. Nordic style chapel wedding embraced by nature. Southern France style options available...

Lilja
(They even coordinate wedding ceremonies. Back home they're not this extravagant, and there aren't as many choices.)

Lilja
Ah-

Lilja
(...Wedding dresses. How lovely. Once in a lifetime...well, not necessarily, but a day to shine brighter than anyone else in the world.)

Lilja
(Pure white lace. A perfectly structured A-line. Sparkling bijous...and most of all, the bride who has tamed even such a dress.)

Lilja
Beautiful. I want to see that radiance with my own eyes...

Lilja
(There probably isn't anyone at Gingaza who's likely to get married. I don't even know the names of the directors or staff.)

Lilja
I wish someone would just get married. I'd be happy just to watch the ceremony...

Lilja
...That's right. If I just want to see a ceremony, there's a way.

Xue
Haah...why did you come here, Finland?

Lilja
I have a favour to ask.

Xue
Let me guess, another delivery? I can't make deliveries to school. Besides, I'm busy with part time wedding jobs this season.

Lilja
About that. I want you to invite me to your wedding.

Xue
WHAT!?

Classmate
Wang-san is getting married...! So your part time jobs are for the ceremony expenses? It must be a luxurious wedding. I wonder if they'll serve Peking duck?

Xue
Are you dreaming or something!? Why would I be getting married!?

Lilja
If Xue would hold the ceremony, that would be fine too. As long as you invite me to the seat with the best view of you-

Xue
I TOLD YOU! I'm just working part time at a wedding venue! Nothing more than that!

Lilja
I know. I just want to see the beautiful figure of a bride. I want you to invite me as a guest to your workplace.

Classmate
Oh, so that's what this is about. You scared me! I jumped to conclusions way too quickly.

Xue
There's a limit to being vague...you're causing nothing but misunderstandings...

Lilja
Is it not allowed?

Xue
Of course it's not allowed. I can't invite anyone.

Lilja
Why not? You just need to add one more chair. If there aren't enough, I'll buy one and bring it. I won't cause any trouble.

Xue
That IS trouble! Why do you only have initiative for unnecessary things...

Xue
Listen, weddings are completely predetermined performances. The seating, the food, the lukewarm events-they're all done to celebrate among close relations.

Xue
If someone with no connection like you comes to celebrate, the bride and groom wouldn't be happy about it at all.

Lilja
It's fine, I have no intention of celebrating their marriage. I just want to see a beautiful bride.

Xue
At least celebrate them!

Lilja
Even though I just want to look...

Xue
If you're done, go back to the classroom. Seriously, this is already such a busy period that we'd take help from anyone.

Xue
(Well, if she just wants to see a bride, there is a way...instead of coming as a guest, she could just work at the venue.)

Xue
(Weekend ceremonies are so understaffed they even made me a shift leader. I even invited Shizuka the other day...)

Xue
(Well, I'm not worried about Shizuka at all. The problem is-)

Lilja
dejected

Xue
(-what idiot would invite Finland? Someone who stood around in a Chinese restaurant's kitchen couldn't possibly handle a wedding venue...)

Lilja
...Then, I'll work part time at the wedding venue. If it's busy during June bride season, you must be short handed.

Xue
Wha...!?

Lilja
I'm not concerned about money, so I'll give my wages to Xue. Consider it a fee for observing brides. How does that sound?

Xue
Ngh...! Hmmmm...!!!

Xue
(Why is she only perceptive about strange things...! But...if I bring her in, my referral bonus will increase!)

Xue
(Such a sweet deal doesn't come often! But is it really a good deal!? This is Finland we're talking about, who will definitely cause trouble!)

Lilja
It's fine. I'm confident in my part time work abilities.

Xue
Your confidence is the riskiest thing of all! Hmm...! But the return is too huge...!

Lilja
Have you decided?

Xue
...Fine, I get it. But I have conditions!

Xue
First, don't complain if you fail the interview. Even if you pass, absolutely, absolutely don't cause any trouble or problems.

Xue
And...you will definitely pay the wage as both an observation fee and compensation for any trouble. If that's acceptable, I'll refer you. Can you manage that?

Lilja
Leave it to me. When it comes to beautiful things, I make no compromises.

Xue
That's not it, don't compromise on the ceremony procedures! Ugh..this is the riskiest part time job I've ever introduced someone to...!
