[Travel Plan] Tomohisa Kitakado

SR [Travel Plan]

Tomohisa :

---a reschedule in next weekend's plan? 

 

Tsubasa:

Yes, things are not going as they have hoped and they won't take the risk so it has to be rescheduled... I am sorry for inconveniencing both of you because of the production site. 

 

Tomohisa :

Of course, things like this can happen. I am fine with a change in the schedule, but that means I have 2 days free. In a way, I can consider it a holiday?

 

Tsubasa:

I believe so. I don't think there will be other works coming up at the moment. 

 

Tomohisa:

I see. Well then, let's consider this a spontaneous autumn vacation. Now, what to do? Since this is a rare occasion, how about we go on a trip somewhere, Ryuuji?

 

Ryuuji:

Unfortunately, I supposedly have another photo shooting after that recording so it's not like I can take the day off. 

 

Tomohisa:

Now that you mention it... you did mention a photo shooting and an interview on the making of the recording to be featured in a magazine. I'm sorry, I was unconsidered. 

 

Tomohisa:

Well, then I will scrap the trip and spend my time at home. 

 

Ryuuji:

Huh, isn't that a waste? Lately, the weather is nice. Don't you think this is the best time to go see the autumn scenery at this time of the year? I believe it would be a good thing to do on a break and I also want to see pictures. 

 

Tomohisa:

A lright, if that's what Ryuuji thinks... But, going alone is kind of boring.

 

Tomohisa:

....how about this. Does anyone want to go on a trip together this weekend? 

 

Hikaru:

Hm, what?! A trip with the prince sounds interesting!! Ah, but this weekend... I was invited to be a guest on a radio show.

 

Momotaro:

Yup. Hikaru and leader are on the radio, while Mika and I are on location. 

 

Tomohisa:

I see... then what about Tatsu? 

 

Tatsuhiro:

Hm? Sorry, I wasn't listening.

 

Hikaru:

A weekend with the prince. He is asking to go somewhere. Does Tatsu has any work this week? 

 

Tatsuhiro:

Oh... no, I'm free this week.

 

Tomohisa:

Nice! How about it? Is there anywhere you want to go?

 

Tatsuhiro:

Wait a minute. Um... are you fine with me? We rarely hang out together before.

 

Tomohisa:

Good question, but don't you think that's also a reason it will be fun and refreshing?

 

Tatsuhiro:

...heh, you're not wrong. If you are up for it, I don't mind tagging along. 

 

Tomohisa:

Great! Where shall we go... perhaps, a European trip? It is not too cold nor is it too hot to walk around the city at this time one the year. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

Eh? 

 

Tomohisa:

How about France? No, perhaps Italy isn't a bad place to visit now either. Tatsu should definitely get to try out trattoria and polpette! It's delicious.

 

Tatsuhiro:

K-Kitakado. I think a European trip is kinda...

 

Ryuuji:

It sounds like a hassle. It would take a long plane flight to get there. 

 

Tomohisa:

Ah... you're right. I wasn't taking into consideration the distance when you suggested a day trip. It is better to enjoy sighting at a reasonable distance. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

Yup. Let's stick around domestically and at a reasonable distance. Where can we go at this time of the year.... let's search for it on the phone. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

"Where can you travel right now?"... "Where can you go this season?" Ah look at this, autumn leaves hunting? 

 

Tomohisa:

Wow, it looks very beautiful. Autumn leaves are reflecting on the surface of the lake. It's like a painting. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

On the weekend, it will nearly be full bloom. Does it sound interesting? 

 

Tomohisa:

It does. It's decided then. Let's go on autumn leaves hunting. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

Nice. Let us start booking. The earlier the better. Any places you have in mind or request? Otherwise, I will just make the preparation.

 

Tomohisa:

.... wait, Tatsu. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

What it is? 

 

Tomohisa:

For the booking, can you leave it to me? I have never done any booking before so I thought this is the perfect opportunity to do so.

 

Tatsuhiro:

I don't mind, but... it can be a bit of a hassle just so you know.

 

Tomohisa:

That's fine. You can trust me I will make sure to get it done. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

You make it sound like this is some big project you are going to do... but it would be great if you can get it done. Whether it's a tour or a trip, make a plan that makes you comfortable. I'm looking forward to what kind of trip you'll come up with. 

 

Tomohisa:

Sure. I will do my best to make sure I meet Tatsu's expectations. 

 

 

 

-Kitakore's apartment-

 

 

 

Tomohisa:

.......

 

Tomohisa:

... Hey, Ryuuji?

 

Ryuuji:

Something's up? You have been stressing in front of that computer for a while now... Is it because the reservations are all booked? 

 

Tomohisa:

No, it's not that. There are still many open reservations but that's beside the point. I feel like everything is so inexpensive? With this Shinkansen green pass package, we get free access to tourist spots and nearby facilities. It sounds like a lie.... or could it be this is a scam? Should I report this to the police?

 

Ryuuji:

W-Wait, Tomo. Let me check.

 

Tomohisa:

Here, take a look. If what's written here is true, then I am a little worried. It feels like the company is giving away way too much.

 

Ryuuji:

Geez, this is nothing to worry about! They will be fine. This practise is quite common and it's actually profitable.

 

Tomohisa:

Really...?

 

Ryuuji:

Besides, the price range on this site is not uncommon and you will find a similar price tag on other webpages. I'm sure of it. Although I don't use these kinds of websites myself, I have seen Yuta and the others use this website to arrange bookings. So it's legit. 

 

Ryuuji:

By the way, it says "only a few left" on the box here. I think you should hurry up and make the reservation before it's gone. 

 

Tomohisa:

Huh? Ah, you're right. I should do it now. 

 

Ryuuji:

Take it slow. If you do it in a hurry, you'll prone to make mistakes.

 

Tomohisa:

Right. I don't want to cause trouble to Tatsu.

 

Tomohisa:

Hmm... It seems this package includes where I can set the time for arrival and departure, but I prefer we can freely decide that ourself. The number of participants, "two men", then input address and phone number.... and I'm done.

 

Tomohisa:

Hmm... oh, it says the reservation is complete. And I got confirmation on my email. Looks like everything is set. 

 

Ryuuji:

Hehe, that's good to hear. Tomo, you did well!

 

Tomohisa:

Thank you, Ryuuji. I feel a sense of accomplishment now. 

 

Ryuuji:

Now all you have to do is wait for the vacation day to come. This a rare chance so go have fun and enjoy to your heart's content. 

 

Tomohisa:

I will. You can look forward to lots of pictures and souvenirs. 

 

 

 

-A park somewhere,

surrounded by the sense of autumn- 

 

 

 

Tomohisa:

We arrived safely on time... which is good

 

Tatsuhiro: 

Yea... this place is kind of amazing. 

 

Tomohisa:

Truly! The trees are so colourful. What a beautiful red leaf.

 

Tatsuhiro:

There is a lake over there as well. The weather is so nice today... maybe we can take a picture and get a nice scenery shot of sight over there by the lake.

 

Tomohisa:

A natural picture of the sight... that's a good idea. It took a while to get here but it was worth it. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

Yup. Thank you for inviting me along, Kitakado. 

 

Tomohisa:

Your welcome. In fact, I am most thankful for you for accompanying me on this trip. Thank you, Tatsu. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

Heh... alright.

Let's get going. Wheres shall we go... its soon afternoon so let's get something to eat. We can walk around hunting autumn leaves anytime but not with an empty stomach. Say, do you have any recommendation?

 

Tomohisa:

Ah...

 

Tatsuhiro:

... hm? What's wrong, Kitakado?

 

Tomohisa:

I'm sorry, Tatsu... I...

I have been too preoccupied with how to get here that I didn't have thoughts on what to do here.

This is bad... and I was the one who told who to leave everything to me...

 

Tatsuhiro:

Haha. So that's just it. That's nothing. Your face looks so terrible it was as if you forgot your wallet or something bad happened. 

 

Tomohisa: 

But I'm really sorry! Can you give me a minute? I will look for a place right now. 

 

Tatsuhiro:

No, it's fine. At one point, I have checked out restaurants and tourist spots in the surrounding. I couldn't possibly rely on you all the time and do or know nothing. 

 

Tomohisa:

Tatsu...

 

Tatsuhiro:

The closest restaurant from here would be one where you can enjoy some delicious yuba and trout dishes. I'm pretty certain. If you like, we can head over there? Before that we can take can try samples and check out stores you. Since it's just the two of us and not a group, we have more freedom. 

 

Tomohisa:

...Yea, you're right. Thank you. (flustered)

We take it slow and steady and enjoy this autumn view to our heart's content... Today will be a memorial vacation for me for sure.
