New Friends at Bravo Chicken

After a busy week we had no energy to cook at home. Instead we walked all of 150 meters to Bravo Chicken. At Bravo Chicken we had good food and met some new friends, two girls of 6 (Jemma) and 8 (Jean) years old. They were sitting next to us and got interested in Chie’s ear rings that she bought in Shinjuku.

At the end the older girl got one of the ear rings. The younger one found out and came back to us, looking the cutest she could (probably practices a lot on her dad), pout her head slightly tilted to the side on her folded hands (resting on the bar stool), and said “ii~ na~,” an expression that is almost impossible to correctly translate. In this situation, the way she said it and blah blah blah… Roughly translated and to the core of the meaning… “I want one too” but really not at all that selfish and direct. Leave a comment with a question or two if you have no clue about what I just tried to say and want to know more.
