In line with their agreement, the vacation prize Talon and Claire had won was partly to be documented for public viewing. As a result, they found themselves engaging more enthusiastically whenever the camera focused on them, aware of the audience that would later share in their experiences. They were waiting in the departure lounge, animatedly chatting while occasionally addressing the camera to narrate their journey.
"Talon, have you ever been to Japan before?" Claire asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement and her voice carrying a cheerful tone.
"No," Talon shook his head gently, his response tinged with a light-hearted humor. "How could a street musician afford to travel abroad, Claire?"
Claire responded with a giggle. "Then, it will be your first time, right? And we'll have so many fun moments there; I can hardly wait."
"Tell me," Talon urged, his curiosity piqued. "Tell me about Japan. You've been there before, haven't you, Claire?"
