"Mana, when did you get married?"
Regina is visiting Mana's house, and has pulled out an old photo album. Without asking, it might be said, but Mana chooses to overlook that. Recognizing the photo Regina is looking at, Mana smiles.
"That's actually my grandmother. You can tell because-"
Mana herself has to think for a moment. She certainly does resemble the bride in the photo. Their hair and eyes are the same color, and Mana's hair is even styled the same way. Although she is aware that when the photo was taken, her grandmother was about a head taller and several years older than Mana is now, the image only shows the newlyweds from the waist up.
"Suspicious! That is you, isn't it!"
"No," Mana says, shaking her head. "You can tell that's my grandma because that's grandpa standing next to her!"
"Weak. Shouldn't you at least say something like 'I've never worn such a beautiful dress'?"
"I've worn that dress once, though?"
"Really?!"
"Only to try it on! Mom and grandma both got married in that dress, and I was thinking I could do the same. That's the only reason, really!"
"I don't think I believe that," Regina says, looking suspiciously at Mana. "How do I know you never ate mermaid flesh or received a gift from Princess Kaguya?"
"At least let me grow up, first!"
At this, the younger girl dissolves into giggles.
