あしたは土曜日 » Volume 春・夏 » Page 36

Mina buys a can of coffee, even though she’s bad at bitter drinks. When her friends question her, she says she’s grown up a bit and should be able to drink it.

サナエ:
「どのへんが大人(おとな)になったのよ。」
“What part of you has grown up?”
ミナ:
(わたし)だっていろいろ成長(せいちょう)してるの!」
“I've grown in lots of ways!”
