Translation: Wink Up April 2016 Kishi, Jinguji and Genki crosstalk
Theme is "Smile"
K: One thing the 3 of us has in common is we recently went to LA. I went with Fuma kun and Yasui kun...
J: And I was shown around by Genki. It was my first time in LA.
I: I’m quite a dependable guy right?
J: Yeah...I depended on you quite a bit on the plane over but when we got there the first thing we did was go to this bakery. I was really hungry and thirsty so I wanted to drink cola.
K: Of course, in America it has to be cola.
J: Genki ordered for us but what arrived was hot coffee (laugh).
K: Oh Iwahashi san, what happened? Well, they are the same colour.
I: (Awkward laugh)
J: I wanted to drink ice cold cola but instead I got piping hot coffee.
I: They didn’t have cola in that shop...
K: Don’t lie to cover up your mistake (laugh).
I: Well that was just one time. After that you completely depended on me.
J: (Talking over Genki) When I ordered apple juice the restaurant staff understood me but they asked Genki to repeat his order of orange juice.
I: That’s because I wasn’t just using single words. I properly said “Can I have...” When we went to the theme park, at the restaurant you kept asking me “What should I say?!”
K: Seems like you caused trouble (laugh).
J: I wouldn’t really call it trouble but I heard Kishi kun team caused more trouble.
K: ...Oh that story! If I say it it’ll sound like I’m joking so please explain it Jinguji.
J: Fuma kun tachi got to the airport in plenty of time.
K: You’re supposed to get there at least 2 hours before your flight.
J: So they checked in and everything and were browsing around the duty free shops when Kishi was like “(Jinguji puts on really charai voice) Is it OK if I just go and change my money?”
K: I didn’t say it like that but OK, let’s listen to what happens next.
J: So after that Kishi kun just didn’t come back. The airport staff had to put out an announcement. By the way this was in Japan on the way to LA.
I: You were like that from the start huh?
K: Yeah, I had to run through the airport with an airport staff member. It was like I was in a drama.
J: Then on the way home, he somehow missed his flight!
K: Yep, I saw the doors close right in front of my eyes.
I: I heard that at the time Kishi was looking for apple juice even though you can also get the same one in Japan and that was the reason he was late.
J: Just get a drink on the plane. If you just ask for “apo jyusu” they’ll understand. Plus that juice is like 160 yen in Japan but it’s much more expensive in America!
I: What was your mood like when you got to the boarding gate?
K: Seriously, I realised that when humans really get cornered like that you can’t even cry.
I: You just felt nothing (laugh). When we returned, we got to LAX...ah that’s short for LA International Airport.
K: Yes, yes, yes.
I: Of course we got there early, we ate tacos or something and bought doughnuts and things. I connected to the WIFI and played on my phone.
K: Drank a cola to mark the occasion. That’s nice, what a dream-like way to spend time at the airport. To add one more thing, before I eventually got on a plane, I couldn’t find my passport.
J + I: ........ (sigh)
K: It turns out I had put it in the case with the WIFI router I’d rented in Japan.
J: Why would you put it in such a hard to find place?
K: At New Years I got a fortune that said something like “Be careful in the middle of your trip” and I was like “It wasn’t just in the middle!” (laugh)
J: You were like “It was from the start!” (laugh)
I: I’d like to go to LA again.
J: If you want to see something scary, let’s invite Kishi kun.
K: I want to go, I want to go!
I: It seems like it should be amusing but after listening to your story I’m scared. When I’m shopping Kishi kun would want to go and see a show right?
K: That’s right, I’m not really interested in shopping but I’d like to see an authentic stage show.
I: If you were alone like that I’d worry about what might happen to you.
K: I’m sorry but I’m the type that would risk my life. I couldn’t just give in halfheartedly.
J: Wait a minute, is LA that kind of a place?!
I: LA is good but I want to go to New Mexico as well.
J: I want to go too. The nature seems amazing and they sell Native American jewellery there right?
I: That’s right, I want to go to New Mexico!
K: I’ll call it New Meki for short. How about we rent a car and the 3 of us can drive around New Meki?
J + I: ........ (imagining it)
I: That’s fine but Kishi kun, please pay for it properly before we go or it’ll take 2 weeks to sort out after we get to New Meki.
K: OK, I get it! But if there’s a bit of trouble during the the trip don’t you think that makes good memories?
J + I: Ahh, scary!
