Saki watches as Mai sketches. It is not a complete drawing yet, but it is already possible to discern the outlines of a large tree and two small girls. What it will look like when it is done... is something to look forward to.
Saki smells the smoke before she sees it. Only then does she turn toward the kitchen and the thick black cloud that is seeping from inside the oven.
"My cake!" She rushes to the oven, but the would-be cake is black, hardened, and obviously inedible.
Mai follows a few moments later, then winces when she sees that the cake her friend had been making is obviously beyond salvation. She tries to sound optimistic: "There's always next time, right?"
"I guess so..." Saki hangs her head. "I was hoping to share this with you. Why is it that the only thing I can bake is bread?"
"You'll get better at other stuff," Mai consoles Saki with a pat on the back. "And your bread is already delicious."
Saki perks up. "It is, isn't it? I shouldn't let this get me down, right?"
Mai just smiles.
