Summary: Sometimes, life gives you a little more than you bargained for. You don't need the extra to survive, nor is it critical to your success… But it sure makes life a lot more fun.

Extra: Prologue
[by Caramel Day]
"Sister Ashanti, Sister Ashanti!"
A little girl of around 5 years ran, darting past the other Sisters, to throw her arms around a young woman.
"Yes, Akari? What is so urgent that you have to interrupt my conversation with the other Sisters?" She spoke strictly, but her eyes revealed her amusement.
"Sister, Miyatsu gave me a pie today! She said she accidentally made some extra. What does extra mean?" Akari frowned.
"Something extra is something more. It's something someone gives you to make you happier."
"Like Miyatsu gave me an extra pie so I'd be happier?"
The Sister laughed. "Yes, exactly. Another example is when Sister Chiyo gives you extra points in class for behaving; she wants to reward you for being a good student.
Something extra is like a bonus. It's not expected, kind of like a surprise. Extra things make people happier; they make life fuller."
