The shopkeeper bowed and began carefully packing each kimono in a box, carefully arranging the accessories in a secondary box. When he was finished, they had four boxes, each tied closed with a silken cord then tied together with another cord. He then returned to his desk and carefully wrote out the receipt, quoting a price to Kuronue.

Yukimura picked up the boxes and resumed his trip through memories with Mame-chan and Kanae, remembering for Kuronue's 'sake' the whole of their first time together.
