Chapter 13: The Weekend Memories......
| Sunday ~ After 11:00 AM - Outside a business with Gotoh...
Ardently, Gotoh thought, '\I hope everyone will join me today, cause... this is a perfect chance for some real class bonding, -that they cannot miss!\'
As she arrived, Teto timidly said, ''Gotoh~! Um, Good afternoon to you. Uhm... You wanted__to meet us today, didn't you?''
He contently replied, ''-That's right. But, _I invited some other company too! -Mhm-Mmm!!''
Stunned, Teto asked, ''P-p-Pardon us?? -Other company, -you said???''
''Hello... One more songbird has entered...the coop... '' Hayato sarcastically joked, as he arrived.
With thumbs up, Gotoh upbeatly exclaimed, ''Hayato! Good! -My best friend made it after all.''
Teto was speechless!, ''. . . . . .''
((Approaching footsteps))
''With a spacey chuckle, Eri loudly said, ''Hello to all! ((Another short laugh)) Eri is eager for what is about to happen.''
In awe, Teto thought, ''Eri_as well...?''
Proudly, Gotoh remarked, ''Just as I hoped for. With Eri, we're all ready and set to go.''
Reluctantly, Teto meekly asked, ''For-what_exactly?''
Festively, Eri sung, ''-(We all live_ _IN a Bokémon world! Bo-ké-mon! -I want to BE_ _the greatest master of them all~!!! -The greatest Umrm-Ur-uhhh.....)'' ''Eri forgot the song lyrics... Eh-eh-heh-heheh... ''
Merrily, Gotoh asked Teto and Hayato, ''So... Did you two select what anime karaoke song you're going to sing those hearts out to-yet? Hehmh.''
Snarkily, Hayato rebutted, ''Hhh- Why spoil the fun. Not sharing... ''
Dismissively, Teto replied with closed eyes, ''Apologies... We think_some more time is needed yet, _for us to be sure.''
Casually, Gotoh asserted, ''If you say so. [Thumbs/and smile combo!] -Make sure your choices will rock!''
Frantically, she thought, ''What do we do??? -We've never sang before, and- we only watched the most well-regarded anime. We can't conceivably upset him ever.''

((Clanging rock music))
Blaringly, Hayato sung, ''(BeautyXBeauty! _ _ Beautiful UNE day! BeautyXBeauty! _ _ Beautiful une dayyy! BeautyXBeauty! _ _ Beautiful-one-day! BeautyXBeauty! _ _ Beautiful_ One day~!)''
[Author's note];1
Amazed, Gotoh remarked, ''Wow -Hayato! I think we got us a rising star here!''
In awe, Eri thought while writing, ''The song! It's SO... So divinely annoying!''
Distracted, Teto fretfully thought, ''I might be doomed_if I don't_ _ _ _Wait! I think I know!''

((Swelling beach rock music))
((Mic feedback))
Carefully, Teto sang a fraction off-key, ''(When I-uh _ was young... A treasure map, was floating in my m-mind.
I-was making sure that _ someone unknown won't take, the miraculous place that _ -I've always been searching f~or.)''
| After the song...
Tensely, Teto stated, ''A-a-And thaatt was_ _'Memories' from Lone Piece... ''
[Author's note];1
[Her song score]: 62 points!
Honestly awestruck, they all clapped for her.
Gotoh cheerily shouted, ''Wow---Wow, Teto!!! You did all right! There was so much, Hrmm, -solid emotion in your words. What else could I say!
-We need to invite you again sometime!'' He stated, as he began to sincerely laugh.
Marveling the performance, Eri exclaimed, ''That was- That song--! Eri_ _was glad to have heard you sing it... ''
Tiredly, she thought, 'Even though_ _I didn't sing correctly??? Huhhh??? [Felt her heart] Why do I_ _ _ _feel so at rest?''
| Next singer~
Extremely energetically, Gotoh sang, ''(Tomorrow is waiting for us! _ Fighting back ----we're steppin' out tonight!
We're all amid the wind, But nonetheless, we're steppin' out tonight! We're bolting after it, so there's~no--looking----back!!!''
