Shizuka
(...No one's here. I arrived too early. Even though it's just a part time job, I'm more nervous than on stage...)
Lilja
That's unusual. Shizuka is nervous.
Shizuka
Eek, Lilja-san...!? ...Are you perhaps a guest invited to the ceremony?
Xue
Finland is working part time too. Somehow she did unexpectedly well in the interview...
Lilja
I just nodded along and got accepted. Doesn't everyone pass?
Shizuka
I was really nervous though...I've been anxious since last night.
Xue
Kukuku. You look like a complete newbie to part time work. How amusing. Well, I'm here and we're expecting two more helpers, so don't worry too much.
Iroha
Hello everyone. I'm inexperienced as a wedding venue staff, but I'll be in your care toda...huh?
Lilja
Moi moi.
Xue
What, you two are the helpers? ...Tch, if I'd invited you myself I could've gotten a referral bonus.
Mito
This is...Xue-chan's workplace. Is this everyone? Don't tell me the leader is...Xue-chan?
Xue
Yeah, that's right. I expect you all to work efficiently today.
Mito
Y-yes! Looking forward to working with you...!
Shizuka
The two from Denki are experienced part timers! So I'm the only inexperienced one!?
Xue
I told you not to worry...well, now that everyone's here, let's start the morning briefing.
Xue
Your duties include cleaning and decorating. Once the ceremony starts, you'll serve food, clear plates, send off the bride and groom with applause, and finally clean up the venue.
Shizuka
Wait, I can't write it all down. Isn't that a lot to remember...!?
Xue
I'll explain as we go, and don't hesitate to ask if you don't understand. Just remember to keep smiling and that's enough.
Iroha
This is a major event that will become a memory for the bride and groom. Let's work hard to make it a good memory for them!
Mito
Yes. With a smile, good posture, and alertness. If we have trouble, we ask Xue-chan...right?
Xue
Come on, there's no time for chitchat. Get to work. Start with cleaning and decorating, don't slack off.
Shizuka
(...Okay, the welcome board decoration looks good like this. I was worried, but having a manual really helped.)
Shizuka
(But...hehe. The bride and groom look so happy in this photo. We have to make this a good ceremony for them.)
Iroha
Ooh, beautiful decorations! Was this Shizuka-chan's idea? Just looking at it makes me excited!
Mito
Yeah. It's really lovely. You can really feel...how close they are.
Shizuka
It's all thanks to the manual Xue-chan gave me. ...I'm relieved you like it. I wasn't confident.
Iroha
Speaking of which, Shizuka-chan, why did you take this part time job? Is it to broaden your acting range?
Shizuka
It's nothing that admirable. Um...I just want to buy new shoes for Kokona...that's a silly reason, isn't it?
Mito
No, it's not silly at all.
Mito
I also wanted to...give my grandparents an anniversary present.
Iroha
As for me...let's just say it's for my spiritual nourishment...
Shizuka
Everyone has their own circumstances...Lilja-san, are you also working for a present?
Lilja
I just want to see a bride with my own eyes. I'm giving the money to Xue.
Shizuka
Um...?
Xue
Hey Finland, the flower arrangement is crooked. I told you to measure the distance properly when placing them!
Lilja
It's only slightly off...Xue, you're so strict...
Xue
Even a slight deviation can cause problems! The bride and groom will arrive soon, hurry up!
Iroha
Shall we double check everything once more?
Shizuka
Yes. For the bride and groom's sake.
MC
Ladies and gentlemen, the bride and groom will now enter. Please welcome them with a round of applause.
Lilja
(-The dimly lit venue. When the heavy doors opened, I could tell at a glance who was the most beautiful person in this place.)
Lilja
(The spotlight makes the pure white lace and bijous shine. The jewelry adorning her ears and neck twinkle like stars in the sky.)
Lilja
(But the dress and jewelry are mere decorations for her. The June bride-the bride who monopolizes God's blessing is dazzlingly-)
Lilja
Beautiful...
Xue
...Alright, we need to finish serving before the venue lights up. We're behind the scenes staff. Never outshine the main characters.
Lilja
(I can't take my eyes off her. I'm captivated. ...I want to know. The secret to her beauty, the joy of gathering everyone's gaze.)
Xue
Hey Finland, place the appetizer directly in front of the guests. Stop staring at the bride...!
Lilja
I want to know the secret to that beauty...how can I reach it too?
Xue
...Then make this wedding perfect without a single flaw. If you help highlight her beauty, you might grasp something too.
Lilja
...I understand.
MC
Thank you very much for joining us today. We will now begin the wedding reception.
Xue
Now it's going to get busy. Don't forget to smile.
Lilja
(...The bride is the most beautiful of all. I wish I could monopolize everyone's attention like that...)
Iroha
Everyone, good work! It's overwhelming to think we were part of a page in this couple's happiness!
Mito
Y-yes. I'm glad everyone looked so happy.
Shizuka
As expected of people experienced in customer service...I'm completely exhausted...even my facial muscles are strained...
Xue
That's all for today. Good work, everyone. Your hard work might have paid off!
Xue
The manager here is usually incredibly stingy, but when a ceremony is a huge success, he becomes generous with bonuses. Kukuku...
Iroha
Really!?
Mito
Th-thank you, Xue-chan! This might...give me a few more options.
Shizuka
I'm glad it went well. I'm happy too because I'll be able to please Kokona.
Xue
Hm? By the way, where did Finland go? Don't tell me she's up to no good again-
Lilja
I got them to take a photo with me. Look at this.
Xue
Y-you took a commemorative photo with the bride and groom...? What are you thinking? I told you we're behind the scenes staff!
Lilja
It's fine because it was after the ceremony. Besides, the bride seemed to be my fan. I gave her my autograph too.
Mito
W-wow...beautiful.
Iroha
Meeting your favorite celebrity on the best day of your life, I'm sure the bride was delighted!
Shizuka
Well...I guess that's fine? Lilja-san got to see the bride after all.
Lilja
Yes. I saw her up close in person and heard her story. And I realised something.
Lilja
-A wedding dress truly makes a person shine. Someday, I want to shine the same way.
Lilja
As pure as snow, as dazzling as the stars. Captivating the gaze and hearts of everyone present.
Lilja
Becoming so beautiful that people can't help but look at me, more beautiful than anything else in this world...
Shizuka
If Lilja-san wore a wedding dress, just captivating gazes wouldn't begin to describe it.
Lilja
Yes. I can't pull it off with who I am now, but eventually. Though I can't imagine myself holding a ceremony.
Shizuka
It's like being in love with the stage.
Iroha
Oh...as expected of Sirius's secret weapon...your words are on another level!
Mito
Y-yeah. The way you say it so casually is so cool...
Shizuka
Ugh...my tension eased and it just slipped out...!
Xue
Come on, work's over so it's reward time! Let's go see the manager!
Shizuka/Iroha/Mito
Yeah!!!
