Kiyo works at the Maiko House as the live-in cook. She sees her childhood friend Sumire in town one day, accompanying older maiko. Back at the House kitchen, Sumire tells Kiyo how hard she is working towards her goal of becoming one, too. Sumire is overjoyed to learn that she will debut as a maiko later that evening. She runs straight to Kiyo to share her news, but what will she think?
Whenever I see you,
there’s no time to chat.
متى رأيتُكِ، لا يُسعفني الوقت لنتحادث
Immer wenn ich dich sehe,
ist keine Zeit zum Plaudern.
Aunque siempre nos veamos,
no tenemos tiempo de charlar.
Aunque nos veamos a menudo,
no tenemos tiempo de charlar.
Avant, c’était jamais le bon moment.
Ogni volta che ti vedo,
non abbiamo tempo per parlare.
Mesmo que a gente se veja,
não temos tempo de conversar.
Даже если видимся,
поболтать времени нет.
