Springtime: Hana, Shiro & Amai

$ 6.20

US English pattern by Kurumi. Includes step-by-step pictures.

SHIRO AND HANA ARE ARTISTS. They met during a time of crisis.
Amai, the bee, is a comedian. He worked in a pub at night doing funny comic numbers for sad workers, who came after work to have a few drinks to drown their sorrows.
Shiro, the bunny, is an actor. For many years he worked doing always the same character: the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland. He was tired of constantly playing the same role, but he never got any other offer, despite being the first to appear at all possible auditions.
Hana, the flower, earned her living by playing and singing in her city’s subway tunnel. She would spend hours and hours, guitar in hand, among hundreds of people hurrying through that underground tunnel of artificial lights, to get some money to eat and pay for her room in a gray pension.
But times of crisis came, a terrible flu pandemic attacked humans, the authorities ordered theaters, bars and subways to close, and forced everyone to shut themselves in their homes.
Amai, Shiro and Hana lost their jobs and were having a very hard time. As the days went by, the few savings they had started running out... [the story continues in the pattern ;)]
