You need to strengthen this place!

Huh?

Kawamoto Masaru-kun. You know him, right?

Well, he's a nice person, but...

Well then, it's fine!

Yeah. That's right.

Anyhow, once the marriage was decided, everyone was glad.

That was true, but it was all just advanced by the adults around me...

...and wasn't a deed I had done for myself.

I couldn't understand why everyone was saying "Congratulations" to me and was so happy about.

Just when it was getting most uncomfortable for me, an old man, covered in sweat, appeared...

There's a job I need to ask you for!

Please do this!

That's right.

My deed would come through this old man...

...and his earnest request for a job that only I as a craftsman could take.

Just leave it to me.

The Store Will Be Closed for Today

300 tsuba (1200 yds) of tents?! And by tomorrow?!

1 Tsuba = 2 tatami mats in dimension or ~ 4 square yards, so 1200 yards in total

Yeah.

300 tsuba...

Why would you take on a job like that?

He said it'll be used for the cultivation of tobacco.

I didn't ask about that!

Why would you, just before your wedding...

...take on something so reckless that'll just cause your body to break down?

I've already accepted it, so I have no choice but to finish it.

That was true, but 300 tsuba of this type of heavy fabric...

...would take far more strength than Western clothes fabrics would.

Ah...

Another one's broken.

Here, I'll take this.

Ah, thank you.

Ah...

Ah, ow, ow, ow...

What's the matter?

My knees...

Look, see! I told you so.

It hurts...

Huh? What's the matter?

Finished...

Finished?

You finished, huh...

Yeah, I have, but...

But? What is it?

My knees...

...are giving me problems.

Eh?!

Kioka-san! Are you up?

Kioka Footwear Store

Kioka-san!

Kioka Footwear Store

What's the matter?

Um, about Itoko... Itoko's in terrible pain.

Hey, hey, out of the way!

You don't have to run, Sir.

What's that?!

If I don't hurry and get you examined by a doctor, you might not be able to walk anymore!

Thanks to Kioka-san's practice at running the Danjiri lines...

...I wouldn't lose my ability to walk.

How is it?

They said, "No sewing machine for a week and come get examined again."

You'll be able to walk?

Yeah.

This girl is getting married in November!

Don't worry. She'll have recovered by then.

Ah...

Thank goodness!

Ah, I'm sorry, let's go.

Hmm...

Not quite satisfactory.

Well... Still, these are the choicest of choicest goods.

When seen in this, it will be quite prestigious for her.

Grandma, this will be fine for me.

Chiyo, what do you think?

Let's see.

That one does looks good on her...

...but I'd also like to see many more different ones.

Right?

I can't decide amongst these, either.

Well, shall I return with some others?

Could you do that?

Yes.

With all these, it'll be quite difficult.

See Ma'am, since this will be called Itoko's bridal outfit...

...we cannot have regrets, no matter how many we have to take out.

Thank you!

Ahh...

I wish the wedding would hurry and be over already...

Even so, that wasn't the only bad thing.

Thank you.

It's to congratulate you, but I do have an order to make.

Ah... thank you.

Such customers were now coming in twos and threes.

Our profits also seemed to have gone up a little.

But...

Because I didn't give my knees time to rest, they weren't healing very well.

Whenever I returned to the hospital, the doctor would storm at me...

"Do you want them to heal or not?!"

But then one day, I realized something.

Ah!

I had just been staring off into space like a fool until today.

This is a good place to get some business!

Huh?

The nurse's uniforms should be in Western style clothing.

As a person in a uniform, the nurses will be seen as doing important work...

...and they'll be able to move around much better and it'll be hygienic!

If you check, I made the uniforms for the Shinsaibashi Department store.

Please leave this to me.

Well, that may be so, but I've told you, "Heal those knees of yours," so...

No, ah...

That's, um...

I have three students at my place and I'll have those students pedal the sewing machine!

Ah, I can think up more good designs.

Excuse me a moment.

Ah, that, that...

That's a patient's case record!

I had done it!

I had gotten an order for ten nurse's uniforms!

Ah... this is bad.

4th (Sunday) Wedding Celebration

5th (Monday) Deliver Goods

When I checked, the due date for the uniforms was set...

...for exactly one day after my wedding.

Even so, it was just a matter of finishing them before the wedding.

I can do that!

Oh!

These are some choice goods!

Yes!

Just what you'd expect from her Kobe Grandma.

It's too much.

It's far too high quality for Itoko.

Even so, this is a once-in-a-lifetime event. Her Kobe Grandmother must be thrilled!

She's so happy it's like Spring has come to the world.

I can't complain, either.

Of course, right? You'd be punished if you did.

Yeah!

My knees were really bothering me.

Because of these guys, the work wasn't going as I expected.

Good afternoon!

Ala?!

What's this?

Are you still working?! Eh?!

You go on ahead.

Eh?!

For pete's sake. This fool won't quit her job no matter what I tell her!

Is there some emergency behind this work?

No, but, well...

...I told them I'd have it done in time, so you go on ahead first.

I don't know this selfish person!

Let's go already! Go!

Eh, eh?!

Look! If you don't go, your son-in-law will get there.

Ye... yes!

So long, see you later... See you later!

After one more...

After just one more, then I'll set it aside.

Geez! What is this?!

Why is the bride so late?! Geez!

Who are those people?

Masaru-san's brothers.

They look totally like him.

Such handsome men.

Right?

Um...

There's something I want to discuss with you.

Yes.

We've been waiting so long now...

...and since we don't know when that fool Itoko might show...

Ah...

How about...

...we just go ahead and get this started?

Ah...

Well, that would be just a little pathetic, wouldn't it?

No!

Nothing pathetic about it at all! Nothing.

What's pathetic...

...is making these guests wait all this time for their food and drinks just for that fool's sake.

Hmm...

Well, that's true.

Okay!

Would that be fine?

Yes!

Rignt!

Eh...

I'd like to go ahead and get started.

Eh?!

Wait...

What about the bride?

Don't say such stingy things, electrical store owner.

No, no, stingy isn't...

Never mind about her.

But this is strange!

Wait!

Has the bride come?

Not yet...

HUH?!

What is that fool thinking on her own wedding day?!

I'm going to call on her.

Huh?

I'll get her and drag her back here!

Ohara Dressmaking Store

Really! That fool...!

Hey! You in there?!

Who is it?

It's me! Natsu!

What are you doing?! Hurry and open up!

Open it yourself...

Huh?!

Don't be so irresponsible!
