Title: Buu and Tuu

Mimi-chan cherishes Yellow boots.

The name is Buu and Tuu.

Mimi-chan loved rainy days.
Because, she can go out with
her favorite boots: Buu and Tuu.

It was raining that morning, so
Mimi-chan wore Buu and Tuu.
Then, her mother put on a
yellow raincoat to her and
they took a kindergarten bus.

It's a little strange to get on 
a kindergarten bus with Buu and Tuu.
That is, the ordinal roads
tend to be exciting, like go-carts
at an amusement park.

The kindergarten is
on the top of the mountain.
The bus goes through the forest,
crosses the bridge, and goes uphill.
Mimi-chan looked at the scenery as
she felt like she was on an adventure.

When she arrives at the kindergarten,
Buu and Tuu are going to be
in the shoe box.
Everyone's boots are also colorful.
The boots of Buu and Tuu were
enclosed in red ones on the right
and light blue ones on the left.

After having the lunch,
Mimi-chan's mother
came to the kindergarten by her car.
Mimi-chan has a younger brother
named Chi-kun and he had a fever.

Their mother decided to take Chi-kun 
to a hospital in the town,
so the house would be empty.
That's why she came to pick up Mimi-chan.

Mimi-chan became
worried about Chi-kun and
she got into her mother's car in a hurry.

After the car started running for a while,
Mimi-chan noticed that
she was in such a hurry and she was
still wearing indoor shoes.

She had forgotten Buu and Tuu
in the kindergarten.

Buu and Tuu were waiting for Mimi-chan
in the shoe box at the kindergarten.
However, Mimi-chan does not come
to pick them up.
The friends who were also in the shoe box
returned to their home with their owners.

Eventually,
there were only Buu and Tuu
in the shoe box.

The rain has stopped and
the outside is on a sunset.

"Surely, Mimi-chan had an accident
and went home."
"Yes, it must be right"

"But Mimi-chan will be in a trouble
if she forget about us."
"That's right. She must be in a trouble."

"Okay, I've came up with a good idea."
"If so, I also came up with a good idea."
"Let's go home to Mimi-chan by ourselves!"
 
Then, Buu and Tuu flew out from
shoe box at the kindergarten.

The two of them walked,
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

"We've seen these roads
from the kindergarten bus,
so we know them well."

The two of them are progressing
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

"Hey, Let's pass by that flower road."

The two of them go down
the mountain road,
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

Then, they saw a bridge
in the far right corner.
 
"Hey, that bridge.
We crossed it in the morning."
"But it's a long way off,"

"Yes, it's a detour."
”Hey, let's take a short cut. "

If we go straight down this slope,
it must be shorter."
"It's nice! Let's do it."

The two of them went down a steep hill,
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

"It's the river"
"There was a bridge,
so there must be a river."
"Let's find a shallow space and cross it"

Finding the shallow space,
they fluttered across the river,
plump-plumping, plump-plumping.

"Okay, We made a shortcut."

However, even if they climbed the hill,
they couldn't find a way to go home.
The woodland continued for long.

"Oh, ooh?"
"Did we get lost?"

They lost their way.

The two went in a deep forest,
squirm-squirming, squirm-squirming.

"I'm scared"
"it seems so dim"

The two went in the woods,
squirm-squirming, squirm-squirming.

 Then.

"Hey, what's wrong there?"

They heard a voice from
above the grass leaves.
There was a snail.

Hi, Mr.snail. Hello"
"Hello.
Do Mimi-chan're not together today?"

"Yeah,
we're about to go home to Mimi-chan."
Buu said.

"But we lost our way to her home."
Tuu said.

"I see. If you go straight down the slope,
there's a animal trail.
Mimi-chan's house is in that direction."
A kind snail taught them the way.

"Thank you. Mr.Snail."
"Thank you. Mr.Snail."

The two of them went down the slope,
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

Then, they found a animal trail.

"This is the path which Mr. Snail said."
"But which one should we go to?"

The two were in a trouble and stopped. 

Then.

"Hey, what's wrong there?"

They heard a voice from
the root of the grass.
It was a frog there.

"Hi, Mr. Frog. Hello"

"Hello.
Do Mimi-chan're not together today?"

"Yeah,
we're about to go home to Mimi-chan."
Buu said.

"But we lost our way."
Tuu said.

"I see. Take this animal trail to the right.
After you go to this trail a while,
there is a pond.
Mimi-chan's house is in that direction."
A kind frog taught them the way.

"Thank you. Mr. frog."
"Thank you. Mr. frog."

The two went along the path,
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

Then, there was a pond.

"This is the pond that Mr. Frog said."
"We still can't see Mimi-chan's house."

The two were in a trouble and stopped. 

Then.

"Hey, what's wrong there?"

They heard a voice from the pond.
There was a small river crab.

"Hi, Mr. river crab. Hello"
"Hello.
Do Mimi-chan're not together today?"

"Yeah,
we're about to go home to Mimi-chan."
Buu said.

"But we lost our way."
Tuu said.

"I see. You can see the field over the pond.
Take a walk toward
the big tree in the middle.
Mimi-chan's house is in that direction."
A kind river crab taught them the way.

"Thank you. Mr. river crab"
"Thank you. Mr. river crab"

The two went through the fields
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

There was a big tree
in the middle of the field.

"This is the big tree
which the Mr. river crab said."
"We still can't see Mimi-chan's house."

The two were in a trouble and stopped.

Then.

"Hey, what's wrong there?"

They heard a voice
from the top of the tree.
There was a swallow.

"Hey, Mr. Swallow. Hello"
"Hello.
Do Mimi-chan're not together today?"

"Yeah,
we're about to go home to Mimi-chan."
Buu said.

"But we lost our way."
Tuu said.

"I see. I'll tell you the exit of the field.
Go in the direction I flew.
Mimi-chan's house is in that direction."

The kind swallows swirled
around on top of them
and flew toward the exit of the field.

"Thank you. Mr. Swallow"
"Thank you. Mr. Swallow"

The two went through the fields,
crop-cropping, crop-cropping.

When they arrived at the exit of the field,
the sun was tilted and it was getting dark.

"Oh, that roof,
the roof of Mimi-chan's house!"
"Truly!
That is the roof of Mimi-chan's house!"

The two became happy and ran
hop-hopping, hop-hopping.

It's almost time for dinner
at Mimi-chan's house.

Her younger brother, Chi-kun,
was examined by a doctor, so his fever
went down and he was getting well.

But Mimi-chan isn't feeling well, since
she forgot her favorite Buu and Tuu
in the kindergarten.

"Maybe Buu and Tuu are lonely waiting
in a kindergarten with no one else."

When she thought so,
she became sad deeply
and she was about to cry.

She even couldn't drink the warm soup
prepared by her mother.

Buu and Tuu finally arrive at
Mimi-chan's house.

"We finally arrived at Mimi-chan's house."
"Yeah, we finally came back to our house."

The two became happy and jumped,
hop-hopping, hop-hopping.

"But how do we get into the house?"

The two are in a trouble. 

Then.

"Hey, what's wrong there?"

They heard a voice from
the roof of their house.
It was an owl there.

"Hey, Mr. owl. Hello"
"Ho-ho. It's already Good evening.
What's wrong with you guys?
Mimi-chan is in her house."

"We're back from the kindergarten by our selves."
Buu said.

"But we don't know how to go inside."
Tuu said.

"Ho-ho-ho. Is that so?
Then I myself may call
Mimi-chan for you."

The kind owl spread its wings and
got down in front of them.
Then he grabbed the pebbles
and soared again,
to threw them towards the window.

Clink

When the dishes were lined up on the table,
a small sound was heard from the window.

Clink

"Hey, Dad,
isn't there sound from the window?"

Mimi-chan asked,
but her Dad didn't seem to notice.

Clink Clink

"Oh, I definitely hear the sound.
I'll take a quick look over there."

Saying so, Mimi-chan stood up
and opened the window curtains. 

Then.

There were Buu and Tuu.

 
"Buu and Tuu!"

Mimi-chan was surprised.

"Mom! Buu and Tuu are back!"

Mimi-chan jumped out
of the door by barefoot
and hugged Buu and Tuu.

"You came back by yourselves.
It's amazing. You did really good job.
Sorry for forgetting.
But I'm truly happy for you to come back!"

Mimi-chan hugged them and
they became very happy.

That night,
Buu and Tuu slept in the shoe box
of Mimi-chan's house.
Surrounded by so many friends,
It was a very happy night for them.
