Episode 12

Don' t Give in.

2016 Jun 01

The temperature in Lan Kong Town rises quickly after midterm ends. The heat change marks the end of spring, and summer bangs on the door like an uninvited guest.

Closed in on three sides by mountains and facing the sea to the east, typhoons batter Lan Kong Town every summer. It often rains for two weeks or longer every month. Because of this, students at Lan Kong High School like to make Sunshine Dolls during the wet season to protect school events from bad weather.

Class 2.2 has split into small groups to get everything ready for the school celebration. Chelsea is leading the team in charge of food prep and drinks, while Yuko's team works on designing the decorations, placards and menus at their booth.

"Yuko, do you think the color matches? Should I change to something brighter?" One of the boys checks with Yuko as he kneels by a freshly-painted sign.

With its light blue background, white spots and colorful lettering, the café sign matches perfectly with the summer vibe. An anime character dressed in a maid’s costume adorns one corner of the sign.

"Hard to decide... the blue undertone go well with white. Why don't we choose two or three different combos and let the students decide?" Yuko kneels down to take a closer look. Anger flashes across her face when she notices the maid in the corner, but she quickly regains her composure.

"Won't we run out of time doing it this way?" the boy asks, worried.

"You're right. There’s no time for students to decide. We have to finish it today." Yuko crosses her arms and thinks for a moment. "How about this? Try doing another one with a different color, then we'll let the students vote for their favorite. What do you think?"

"Yeah, that sounds doable."

"Then I'll leave you to it." Yuko gives her classmate a bright smile, pats his shoulder and heads over to the other busy students.

"Everyone, we need to finish all the preparations today. Keep up the hard work!"

"Oh..."

Episode 13

Mother Mole

2016 Jun 25

"It's Qian Qian!"

"Sister Qian Qian!!!" The kindergarden children in the crowd see Qian Qian standing outside the booth and run up to her, full of excitement.

"Huh? It's the local kindergartners." Qian Qian sees a few children she knows and smiles happily. Then she crouches down to greet them.

The children barrel into Qian Qian like wild bulls, screaming and jumping enthusiastically.

"Sister Qian Qian, what are you doing?"

"Sister Qian Qian, why are you wearing that hat?"

"I know, I know. That’s a Mole Monster's hat!" The children all start shouting at once, making the crowded booth even livelier.

"Mwahaha, I'm the scary Mole Monster! And I’m going to eat you aaall up!" Qian Qian stretches out her arms and chases the children like an eagle.

"Wah, help me!!" The children start running around the classroom laughing and screaming.

A little kid grabs a balloon hammer out of nowhere, rests it on his shoulder like it weighs a ton, and walks towards Qian Qian.

"Achoo! Achoo!"

"Attack! Attack! It's the Mole Monster!" The children scream happily.
