2015-11-15 Wait on by them with maximum respect and awe. [長年日記]

This time, I am going to attend the wedding ceremony of niece, and my sister(the niece's mother) asked me to consider to wear KIMONO(Japanese traditional costume)

Not me but my wife (needless to say).

I hear the story that KIMONO makes a ceremony colourful like wedding reception banquet, but I have not understood the real world.

-----

However, I didn't expect that this KIMONO event was going to expand to all of my family(wife, and two daughters)

Their preparing period was beyond one month, and my wife's relative came to our house in order to help the preparing of the KIMONO event.

In opposition, my preparing time was less than one minute.

According to the weather forecast, the heavy rain was coming at that day. So I joined the project and made several plans in order to the costume against the rain.

The day before, my wife and I applied for the membership of Odakyu-Romance Car Club and tried to book train seats twice at the same day, and my daughter tried to check the taxi payment from the Internet. That was beyond the reach of our ordinal imagination.

-----

My wife and daughters who had dressed up were glamorous looks, and it went without saying that I was really proud of them, however the junior daughter said that "I am about to crack ribs" with painful look whenever she stood and had a seat.

It looked like

a hamper for witch-hunting in the Middle Ages

I also felt miserable though I just looked them.

-----

Men in the world.

Look with keen interest.

All women who wear KIMONO costume are fighting soldiers.

As a legitimacy successor of Japanese tradition,

wait on by them with maximum respect and awe.
