THE STORY

A month after Kyoto, the keys to the new flat are theirs. Yui's things come up from Kyoto, and the flat fills up with boxes. Mrs. Tanaka, who still lives round the corner, comes to help, and to meet Yui at last. She brings a present, and some news that makes Yui forget all about the boxes. The next day, there's soba for the neighbours. This is the conversation you'll be able to say by the end of the lesson.
