Life As A Girl (女子的生活)

I like people who fight.

Even if people are physically and mentally weak,

those who face forward with effort

are strong and beautiful.

#Good morning

#Favourite songs

I always play my favourite songs first thing in the morning.

If possible, one that's upbeat and makes me want to dance.

#Upbeat

Hey! Go over there!

#Cereal sold by weight

I prepare my breakfast with the music.

Recently, I like the cereal that's sold by weight.

#Apple cinnamon flavour

#Plus yogurt and banana

The diced apples are faintly sweet.

It is a good substitute of sugar for dieting too.

Ah... jeez...

I apply a proper makeup base.

#Particular about the basics

#Freshness UP

#Relaxed and soft

Not too heavy, but just right.

Since I already have a loose perm,

I don't need to put in much effort on my hair.

The overall look is relaxed and soft.

A super cool feel to the eyes and lips.

#Cool surplus

#Girls liking it UP

If it's not too sweet, girls will like it too.

Shall I go for an early autumn look?

#Autumn item?

#In advance?

#Just on time?

Or a just on time feel?

My mission today is a stylish summer coordinate!

#Stylish summer coordinate

Yeah, this looks good.

I fret over the big sizes and designs.

#Thick heels

#Salty-sweet

#Just fit

But this is a hit after a long time.

A "trendy girl" style that looks like a painting.

- Here. - Thank you.

You're welcome.

Miss.

- Yes? - I'll give you one.

- Thank you. - Bye bye.

Life As a Girl

Fast fashion passeggio

Fellow colleague, Kaori

Good morning, Miki.

Good morning, Kaori.

- What's that? It's cute. - Hmm? I got it from a cute girl.

- You're popular from the morning~ - I guess~

I saw this morning's "Life As a Girl".

"Fashionable coordinate for summer". It's good.

Shall we copywrite it for the last sales column?

There are one-piece dresses that were bought but not worn. I'll use it.

Can you please get it ready by 29th September?

Thank you. Goodbye.

Senior, Nakamura-san

Ah... Summer passed in a flash

again this year.

Don't say that, Nakamura-san~

When I work here, I feel that the seasons pass so quickly...

We basically do this in advance.

- Well then, shall we check the samples? - Let's go, Torso-chan.

Hey, don't call me that.

How is it, Torso-chan?

It may be better to make the neckline narrower.

Torso = a type of mannequin

And please stop calling me that.

It's fine, isn't it? You're the ultimate M size, M-chan.

If anything, I'm S (sadistic) though.

If you become fatter by even 1 mm, you'll be fired.

Miki has talent at copywriting and Nakamura-san is fluent in Chinese,

while I'm just the torso model? I see~

No, having the M size body is a type of talent.

Thanks to that, we can save on modelling fees. It's a big help.

All right, wear this next.

Hey, how much is this?

2980 yen.

#Affordable

#Fast fashion

#Fast #Cheap #Good

Ah~ well, it's appropriate.

Our motto is "fast, cheap and good".

Maybe we can have different colours to aim for more sales.

What colour will be good?

- A moment please, Ogawa-kun. - Yes.

Boss, Itakura

He has a distasteful Italian

But somehow it gives off a fake feel.

After going through one round, I feel that's possible.

Thank you.

He has sharp ears...

What is it?

You know, the one that you're doing. The "Life As a Girl".

Yes.

It seems that there will be a TV feature on "the insiders" of various industries

and someone will come here for an interview.

As the person behind "Life As a Girl",

Ogawa-kun, won't you appear on it?

What?

Hmm~ a feature on "the insiders"?

#Plate centred on root vegetables

#Survive the afternoon by sweetness

You were asked to show your face?

It's only a business account so there will be an image movie

where I will suddenly say "I'm the insider~"

They don't need the graphic details, I guess.

Well, Miki, your presence alone is like an image movie.

I guess so.

- Have you found a roommate yet? - Not yet too~

Eh, what? Miki, are you looking for a roommate?

I'm seeking one.

The girl who lived with her got a boyfriend and left.

I see. Are you lonely?

Instead of being lonely, it's tough on my finances.

She won't say she's lonely in such a situation. Right~

What~!

That's right. I won't say that I'm lonely.

- Wow, this is a stylish shop. - Oh, there's such a shop here.

The type of shop that's too stylish and somehow irritates you.

- What's that? - I'll take a quick look here.

- Eh, really? - This is also part of my job.

If I don't take a look, I won't know whether

it will irritate me.

Welcome.

Select shop assistant, Yui

Ah~ I'm being evaluated.

- Please take your time. - Thank you.

Ah~ Miss, are you on the way home?

- One please. - Coming right up~

Thanks for your hard work again today.

I've been standing from noon so I'm exhausted.

Women are constrained by various things. It must be tough.

All right! I will give you another potato croquette for free.

Wow~ thank you!

All men are simple. That is cute. But...

Hey, dear. Why are you idling?

Thanks for always patronising us.

Oh my, you're showing your legs. Aren't you cold?

- I'm fine. - You should avoid getting cold.

Women are sharp. They won't let down their guard.

- Yes. - Here's your change.

- I will take note. - Thank you.

Why did you try to sell it at half price by yourself?

No, no. Well, it's fine, isn't it?

- I will deduct it from your pocket money. - Pocket money!?

#Steep stairs

Um... what business do you have with me?

What? Ah...

Excuse me. Um... there should be a guy

called Ogawa living here.

What?

- Could you be his girlfriend? - Ah, no...

I see... Ah, this is a problem.

- Ah...! Go... - What?

Nothing...

Um... why are you looking for Ogawa-san?

Um~ I'm his classmate from high school.

But... well, I'm not exactly his close friend though.

Is there anything urgent?

- I don't have anywhere I can go. - What?

I'm in debt so all my possessions were taken away...

Actually... I'm not the one.

Someone close to me borrowed from the loan sharks and got me into trouble.

That must be dreadful.

Ah... wait! Wait a minute!

Other than Ogawa, there's really no one else that I can ask.

So can you just give me Ogawa's contact number?

Why don't you go back to your parents' house?

I can't depend on them. It's embarrassing.

I can't tell them this. As a man.

Ouch...! Um... wait!

Ouch!

Come in.

Eh? Is this okay?

Let's eat~

Goto, a classmate that I haven't met for a long time.

High school classmate, Goto Tadaomi

His hairstyle is passably natural.

Passably natural

Moderately casual

Man in safety zone

A moderately casual style without overemphasis.

I guess he's a man in the safety zone?

Could you be Ogawa's elder sister?

- Why do you think so? - The surname on the doorplate.

There aren't any girls in the Ogawa family.

Ah.
