Chiyo and Osaka were walking to school together in the road. They walked around a corner, and found a fresh set of tracks in the sidewalk that led to Tomo— who was stuck up to her ankles in wet cement.

"Tomo-chan!" Chiyo said. "Didn't you realize that you were walking in wet cement?"

"Is it cement," Osaka asked, "or is it concrete?"

"Cement is an ingredient in concrete," Chiyo said, "along with water and gravel."

"Then shouldn't it be wet concrete?" Osaka asked.

Tomo interrupted them. "When ya figure out what it is, could ya help me out of it!?"
