Kenta, you are full of energy today too!
Yes! I am doing great.
Kenta, do you often lose things?
What! That is not true!
But, I lost my wallet once!
That must have been tough!
The theme is "I lost my wallet"!
Oh, that is an important topic.
Because losing a wallet is troublesome.
Indeed! But do not worry.
With today's phrases, you can feel reassured.
What phrases will we learn?
Today, we have six phrases.
The first one is: I lost my wallet.

The third one is: What kind of wallet is it?
We talk about the color and shape of the wallet.

It happened one afternoon.
I went to a nearby bakery.

You put it into your pocket, right?
Yes. After eating the bread, I went to the station.
I arrived in front of the station ticket gate.
You were about to take the train.
Yes. But then, I check my pocket.
There is no wallet in my pocket!
What! There is no wallet?
I thought, "I dropped my wallet!"
Oh no! That was very troubling.
Yes. I became very flustered.
I checked the road and store, but it was not there.
Going to the service counter is a great choice!
