"Well why don't we rent one?" asked Yohane.

 

"Good idea-zura!"

 

Hanamaru carried her tiny friend to a boat rental shop on one of Numazu's many docks. They checked many shops, but the lowest price they could find to rent a boat for a day was a whopping 20,000 yen.

 

"I-I'd lend you the money, but I think my wallet shrank with me..." said Yohane, pulling out some miniscule pocket change. "And even then, my fortune telling business isn't exactly booming..."

 

"I-I'm sorry, Yohane-chan, I'd happily lend you the money, but I don't make that much in a day selling my bread... I only do what I can to help out at home-zura..."
