    We came here because my second aunt wanted to shop at GU or UQ—I forget, hahaha.
    I looked around a bit myself and thought it was just okay〜

    But then, unexpectedly, I found my favorite, gelato pique!

    I thought I'd try my luck and see if they had the shark set, and they actually did! It was the men's version, but there happened to be a big summer sale at the time. I originally thought new items wouldn't be included, but when I checked the official website, they actually were.
    (When I looked for it in Okayama before, the last one was in the hands of the lady right in front of me, and the sales associate told me they were sold out.

    I can't believe I happened to find it here〜〜〜

    The sales associate went out of his way to dig these out for me and said these were all they had left. I got the feeling he didn't think I'd buy them, but I'm the kind of person who'll surprise you. I didn't even try them on and bought them right away, hehe.

    They were 30% off the original price, with another 10% off if you bought two, plus tax-free shopping. Wasn't everything just perfectly aligned?
    And they were my favorite sharks. I'm basically the goddess of luck, right?

    I immediately said, “これ and これ ください!”

    The female sales associate's eyes widened, and she quickly called the tax-free counter for me and led me on a run through the department store〜

    The person at the tax-free counter was a Chinese international student. He told me I was so lucky because if they hadn't just called, the counter would have closed. He also said my card looked really fancy.

    Then the next second, he actually dropped my card?

    I was like, what??? I was dumbfounded⋯

    But anyway, I was super happy that I got those two pieces!
    I even went back specifically to thank the female sales associate〜〜

    Then, right when I was all happy, my second aunt and cousin got into an argument!
    My second aunt thought my cousin had picked a size that was too small, but I guess he just likes wearing fitted clothes?

    My second aunt told him to choose for himself, but after he did, she picked out another one that she thought was better.

    My cousin got super mad right away.
    (I'd be mad too.
    “Then why did you tell me to choose?”

    The two of them stayed mad the whole way, so even though I'd gotten my favorite shark set, I didn't dare act too happy at all.

    We even came to this department store twice. We came back again on the last day because I guess my second aunt felt she was partly at fault, hahaha.

    But amid all this chaos, I also saw a beautiful sunset glow.

    On one hand, I unexpectedly found the shark set I'd been longing for; on the other, my family got into an argument for no apparent reason. Then, at the end, I looked up and saw the beautiful sunset.

    But that's what trips are like—messy, but with some lucky memories worth remembering too, I guess〜(˶‾᷄ ⁻̫ ‾᷅˵)

    There are lots of options for clothes, shoes, and accessories, but not many luxury brands. If you just want to experience the vibe of a Japanese department store, this place feels more relaxed than Takashimaya.
