Wash It

All Away

Episode 3 Closed All Day Today

Thank you very much.

Let's try not to fail any subjects with the festival coming up, yeah?

Yeah. See you.

You bet. Later, man.

It looks dark inside too.

I wonder what could have happened.

Hello there.

How's it goin'?

Oh, Kyu-chan. You're back early today.

Well, it's finals week.

Is there some reason why you're all standing around here?

Actually, you've got perfect timing.

You see, it's a regular business day,

but Kinme-san hasn't opened her shop yet.

We are closed for the day.

So we were all wondering about what could have happened to her.

Mhm.

Mhm.

Right...

Yes. So we'd like your help, Kyu-chan.

Well? Can you see inside the room?

No, not yet.

Is this... okay?

Oh, it's open.

Um, excuse me.

Kinme-san?

Um...

Uh... are you all right?

My!

Oh dear.

Well, she sounds all right.

Everything's fine.

She was only sleeping. Nothin' to worry about.

I'm glad it turned out to be nothing.

I suppose she just overslept after all.

Oh no! You're kidding!

U-Uh, I'm very sorry for coming in without permission.

Don't tell me that stuff from last night did me in.

Huh? Stuff?

Yesterday, I picked up a number of items from a customer,

and among them was one very unique and delicate piece

that required extra time and care to wash.

I was so proud of myself after accomplishing such a big job,

I must have let it go to my head.

Then, one of my regulars showed up before closing time and invited me out to dinner.

And I just... jumped at the chance.

Welcome Restaurant with an Ocean View

And then...

I was so excited to try out a new restaurant,

I even ordered a drink, which I almost never do.

With the first drink— no, with the first sip,

my mind went completely blank.

I had no idea I was actually such a lightweight.

Turmeric Extract

Turmeric pills?

When and how did I even make it back?

Did I make my customer carry me home?

Huh.

So I guess you really like to let loose sometimes.

N-No, I do not!

I absolutely do not l-let loose at all!

Oh!

Uh, what time is it right now?

I-It is still morning, right?

Huh? Oh... It's around noon.

Is she all right, though?

I'm going downstairs to tend to the customers.

K-Kyusho-kun, just make yourself at home up here.

Yeah. Make myself at home?

So please excuse me.

Oh.

Thank you very much for waking me up.

Yeah. No big deal.

She's not mad that I snuck in like that?

And I need to ask you for one favor.

Will you promise not to tell anyone that I fell asleep in such a slovenly manner?

Uh... oh, sure.

It's not really something I'd go around telling people anyway.

P-Promise me.

Um, wow.

I haven't made a pinkie promise since... what, kindergarten maybe?

Welcome!

Welcome!

Every Tuesday

I washed it, but it still isn't clean! Well... that's because of a mismatch between the kind of stain and your type of cleaning! At Kinme Cleaning, we use washing methods tailored to the exact type of cleaning you need.

I sincerely apologize.

It's fine, dear.

We know you have a lot on your hands, Kinme-san.

Hello, this is Kinme Cleaning.

Oh, no, not at all.

I apologize that I was unable to answer the phone this morning.

Yes, a pick-up?

C'mere, c'mere.

Yes.

Good job, Kyu-chan!

Of course.

Here's a little reward for you.

I see.

Oh, thank you.

In that case, we should move quickly.

Yes. Yes.

Haven't had these since kindergarten, either.

Yes. I could be there...

Yes. Yes. Five o'clock is fine.

Yes, perfectly all right. Yes.

I probably shouldn't distract her now.

Of course! Understood.

You can count on Kinme.

So, have you tried that new restaurant yet?

Holy...

I figured I should check in on her,

but what's with the crowd?

So quickly, I know!

Young man there.

Uh, yes?

You just came out of the cleaners, right?

Would you happen to know something about this?

No, not exactly.

It seems like Kinme-san overslept for once.

Oh, you don't say.

I did give her some turmeric pills when we went home.

I hope she remembered to take some.

For Liver Health! Turmeric Extract Tablets

Turmeric?

Huh? Yeah.

I invited Kinme-san out to dinner last night.

Is this the regular she was talking about?

And get this, Kinme-san said she'd never had alcohol before,

but she didn't get drunk at all

and was walking perfectly fine on the way home.

So I'm betting she didn't oversleep because I got her drunk or anything.

I really apologize for this.

Don't worry about it.

By the way, young man, are you one of her customers?

You look more like a student to me.

I just happened to be passing by.

I noticed the shop was still closed,

so I went in through the second floor and woke her up. That's all.

The second floor, huh.

I have to rush back to work right now, but tell Kinme-san I said hi, okay?

Uh, sure.

Ow!

You'd better be careful not to fall for her or anything, got it?

Bye!

What does someone like that do for a living?

Guesthouse Inn Ishimochi

Here ya go.

I thought the customers had more kids than they did and made one too many.

Now clean your plate, okay?

Another first since kindergarten.

Wash It All Away

Wash It All Away

Closed all day today.

Good morning, Poly-chan!

Okay.

Marion Cleaner

Good.

Phew.

For the shop, I like to make new posters and flyers every season.

I get more active with sales campaigns when there's a dip in customer traffic.
