闪耀协奏 Summertime Sparkle

芭芭拉的海滩装扮。洋溢着夏日活力的俏丽短裙，似乎散发着海洋的清爽气息。 Barbara's beach attire. This pretty skirt brims with summer vitality and carries with it a cool ocean breeze.

芭芭拉的舞蹈与歌声是为了治愈大家的心而存在的。

Barbara's songs and dances are meant to heal everyone's hearts.

可是非常偶尔的，为所有人带来笑容的芭芭拉也会感到落寞。

But sometimes, even Barbara, who brings smiles onto everyone's faces, will herself feel down.

想要像同龄的女孩一样，和亲密的朋友一起悠闲逛街，和家人一起度过温馨的时光。

She, too, wishes to hang out with close friends and spend quality time with her family, much like any other girl her age.

这样的小小愿望对别人来说或许简单，然而对她来说却有些奢侈。

These small wishes seem simple to anyone else, but they are a luxury for Barbara.

身为偶像，出门总是会被过分热情的粉丝围堵，

As an idol, she is often surrounded by zealous fans when she goes out.

好不容易得空回家与亲人团聚，和父母、姐姐的温馨时光又总是那么短暂。

And when she can steal moments to be with her family, the time she can spend with her parents and sister is ever so brief.

优秀而且忙碌的姐姐总是被公务缠身，每次芭芭拉想向她诉说心事时，总会因为姐姐手上的工作堆积如山而无法开口。

Her brilliant, busy sister is often stuck to her desk due to official business, and every time Barbara wants to go to her to share her feelings, she is silenced by the mountain of work piled in front of Jean.

姐姐的疲惫显而易见，芭芭拉也看在眼里。

Her sister's exhaustion is plain to see, and Barbara sees it too.

没办法，琴·古恩希尔德是大家的代理团长。

It can't be helped: Jean Gunnhildr is everyone's Acting Grand Master.

「但，可能的话…能把姐姐还给我吗？」

"But... could you just... give me my sister back, just for a while?"

看着劳碌的姐姐，芭芭拉悄悄地如此自语。

Barbara says this to herself while watching her busy sister.

就在那时，芭芭拉听到了关于奇妙群岛的传闻。

And that was when she heard a rumor about a strange archipelago.

夏日、岛屿、海洋…这会不会是个合适的机会呢？

Summer, islands, the ocean... could this be her hard-come-by opportunity?

夏天应该会有清凉的汽水，有甜丝丝的冰点，还有金黄的沙滩、碧蓝的海水和戏水的人群。

Summer meant refreshing drinks, sweet icy desserts, and golden sands, azure seas, and people playing in the water.

对，沙滩、海水！就这么办。

The sand... the sea... Yes! So it was decided.

要去海边得做好准备才行，

But a seaside trip requires preparation.

得带上点心、糖果…对了对了，还有麻辣小鱼干，统统装在可爱的小黄鸭包包里♪

Snacks, sweets... ah yes, and Spicy Dried Fish, too. All this, she placed into her cute yellow ducky bag. ♪

还有衣服！得换上轻便的泳装，这件短裙感觉很好，鞋上的白色小花也好俏皮♪

Oh, and let's not forget clothes! I'll need some light and comfy swimwear. This short skirt looks good — and those little white flowers lend a playful look to those shoes! ♪

而且，在领口系上蝴蝶结好像会更可爱？

And perhaps a little bow tied around the neckline, would that look cuter?

啦—啦啦啦啦—啦啦♪芭芭拉已经开心地哼起了歌。

Barbara began to hum happily to herself: La~ la la la la~ la la! ♪

不过，姐姐是绝对不会有空闲准备泳装的吧？

But there was no way her sister would have time to prepare any swimwear for herself, would she?

有点让人烦恼呢，但也不是没有办法。

That was quite the pickle... Still, there were ways around that.

「丽莎小姐有空吗？想请你一起挑件衣服。」芭芭拉微笑着叩开了图书馆的门。

Barbara pushed the door of the library open with a smile. "Do you have time, Miss Lisa? I'd like your help with picking a set of clothes."
