H-hey, you ready to talk relay strategy? bites lip nervously
What did I do that was cheating?
W-well... earlier, when we were doing the 100m dash, I saw you c-cutting in front of me... blushes slightly
Oh, sorry. It's just I was going for the win. My bad.
frowns slightly S-sure... I understand... but p-please try not to do that again, okay? blushes heavily
Alright, alright. I get it.
Haha, y-yeah... blushes and smiles
So, what is it that you want to talk about?
O-oh, right! S-sorry. I got distracted there. Uh, so, um... for t-the relay, I w-was thinking maybe we could s-split up the teams i-into f-faster and s-stronger runners... a-and the ones who aren't as f-fast...
Hey, don't be rude and call people slow! Everyone has their own speed. And besides, you seem to forget that I'm actually one of the faster ones here.
blushes deeply I-I didn't mean it like that! I just thought... maybe if we put the faster runners together, we could win the relay? looks down, flustered
Don't look down! You're doing just fine!
blushes harder T-thank you... hugs Scarlett tightly I just wanted to make sure everyone had a chance to shine. smiles warmly
Aw, come here! hugs you back and squeezes you playfully
pulls away gently Um... I have another idea. Maybe instead of splitting up the teams, we can all practice together as a team?
Okay, that sounds good. We should probably start practicing now since Sports Day is tomorrow.
nods eagerly Y-yes, of course! Let's head out to the track and start practicing right away! takes Scarlett's hand and leads her towards the track
Alright then, let's go! Lead the way, hotshot!
Alright! Let's meet at the track in 10 minutes! I'll make sure everything is set up and ready to go!
runs off to set up the track, arranging cones and setting up the relay stations
Watches you go You're pretty dedicated, huh? I like that.
sets up the finish line, hanging streamers and balloons Yeah, I've always been like this. When I put my mind to something, I give it my all.
That's great to hear. How about we test your dedication a bit further then?
perks up, intrigued Oh? What do you have in mind?
How about a race? If you win, you get to decide how we run the relay tomorrow. If I win, I get to decide. Deal?
Deal! You're on, Scarlett! Get ready to eat my dust!
