将棋クラブのソウタがマサミにクラブを辞めることを伝えます。
Sota, why the serious look?
I’m afraid I have some bad news.
Bad news? What is it?
I’m quitting the shogi club.
You ? Why? You’ve always been the leader of this club.
I know, but I have to concentrate on studying for my college exams now.
I don’t believe you, Sota. Tell me the real reason why you want to quit.
I think you know the real reason.
Do I?
Yes.
マリコの友人のバーニーは、最近フットサルをやっているようです。
Are those guys on the cover of that magazine playing soccer?
No, they’re playing futsal.
What’s futsal?
It’s kind of like indoor soccer. I’ve been playing it recently with an amateur team.
Oh, it sounds like good exercise. No wonder you’re looking healthier these days.
Thanks.
So, when are you going to play next?
I wanted to play next Sunday. But the players I hoped would play are all busy that day.

Hi, can you hear me? It’s Raj here in Mumbai.
Yes, I can hear you, Raj.
What time is it there in Japan?
It’s 10 o’clock in the morning. What time is it there?
It’s 6:30 here. I just woke up.
I’m sorry.
It’s OK. I wish I were in Tokyo.
Really? Have you been here before?
No, not yet. But my brother Deepak, who is a chef, lives in Tokyo.
同僚のウイルが、リコが夏期休暇に泊まった「みそ煮込みホテル」について尋ねています。
Hi, Riko. Did you have a nice summer holiday?
Yes, it was relaxing.
Did you go anywhere special?
We went to Nagoya to see my parents. I hadn’t seen them in a while.
So, you stayed at their house?
Actually, we stayed at the Misonikomi Hotel, which is the place for miso lovers.
Sounds good. Do all their dishes have miso in them?
Many of them do. Their misonikomi udon is amazing!
Now I’m getting hungry.

Sorry to be late.
Again? That’s enough! Well, you need to give me a very good reason why you’re always late for work.
Otherwise, you may be fired.

You look happy.
Yes. My wife just called me, and the wallet that I thought I lost was actually on the kitchen table.
What a relief!
