Futuro, diminutive and determined, eyed the expansive terrain of Yotsuba's vibrant pants as she danced around the kitchen, lost in her own world. The monumental task ahead did nothing to deter his resolve. He needed to reach the table, and from there, the sandwich—his best chance at being seen.
With a deep breath that barely moved his minuscule chest, Futuro began his ascent. Each fiber of the fabric felt like a thick rope to his tiny hands. The climb was arduous, the movements of Yotsuba's leg creating unpredictable sways and jerks that threatened to dislodge him at every moment.
Miraculously, as Yotsuba reached for another ingredient from the fridge, she stood momentarily still, providing Futuro with just enough stability to scramble up to the waistband, and then, with a few more painstaking efforts, onto the flat expanse of the kitchen table.
The table's surface was a new challenge, slick and vast, but Futuro pushed on, driven by the urgency of his situation. Ahead lay his target—the sandwich Yotsuba had been constructing with artistic abandon. It was a hodgepodge of colors and textures, a mountain range of bread, lettuce, and slices of tomato and cheese.
With a mixture of resolve and desperation, Futuro darted towards the sandwich, his tiny feet slipping slightly on the smooth surface of the plate. He climbed up the side of the sandwich, using bits of lettuce as footholds, and positioned himself prominently on a slice of tomato, hoping its bright red color would make him more noticeable.
From his perch, Futuro waved his arms frantically, trying to catch Yotsuba's attention. But Yotsuba, humming a tune and thinking about her plans for the day, seemed in another world entirely. She reached for the sandwich, her hand coming dangerously close to Futuro.
1. **Yotsuba Sees Him**: Just as Yotsuba is about to take a bite, she notices something unusual on the tomato—a tiny figure waving. Startled, she peers closer and recognizes Futuro. Relief and concern wash over her as she carefully lifts him from the sandwich, ready to listen to his incredible story and help him return to his normal size.
2. **A Perilous Mistake**: Yotsuba, completely absorbed in her thoughts, fails to notice Futuro's frantic waving. As she brings the sandwich closer to her mouth, Futuro realizes the imminent danger. He needs to make a quick decision: either jump off the sandwich or brace himself for a potentially perilous journey inside Yotsuba's mouth. The choice could mean his survival or a more dire situation.
3. **Distraction Strikes**: Right as Futuro thinks Yotsuba might see him, the phone rings. Distracted, Yotsuba sets the sandwich down, rushing to answer it. Futuro is left stranded on the sandwich, pondering his next move as Yotsuba chats away, oblivious to the tiny brother in peril on her plate. How will Futuro attract her attention now?
