Summary
It was just plain bad luck. Pierrot was heading to the café where his beloved was, but unfortunately, he ran into some bandits. He wasn't seriously hurt, of course, but unfortunately, he did injure his leg. Suddenly, the café's back door opened, and out came the lady of his heart. Pierrot thought he'd get some affection like before, and then hobble back to the circus to recuperate, but he certainly didn't expect what happened next.

Summary
Milana was working as usual when one of the tables where customers were seated made no mention of the approaching Mother's Day. Harlequin, calmly sipping his cold coffee, chuckled at this.
"I think our dear mother should get something too."
The girl, of course, didn't understand who the circus performer was talking about, since neither Pierrot, nor he, nor anyone else from the circus had mentioned their parents. The young man happily explained to the worker that he was referring to the Jester, as he was like a parent to them.
Milana thought for a moment and decided: since he was like a mother to them, shouldn't she congratulate him somehow?Series

Summary
Milana approached one of the customers at the café who looked rather… strange. He unexpectedly decided to first talk about the trash in the form of circus flyers that customers left behind, and then, for some reason, about the employee's possible visit to that same circus. The man, although suspicious, was still a café customer. And Milana had a strict rule during work: do everything to make the customer satisfied! Even if that meant continuing to talk to him about unusual things the girl knew nothing about.

Summary
Milana apologized once again to the Jester, who was calmly drinking his coffee. She was still ashamed of that situation. Perhaps, sometimes you shouldn't believe everything Harlequin says. "Don't worry, everyone in this life can make mistakes," the man said calmly, taking another sip. "I don't know why, but there are individuals who, for reasons unclear to me, think that I am like a 'mother' to my employees. This is an absolute lie and slander."

Summary
Milana definitely did not expect a sobbing Pierrot to come running to her today, saying they could no longer see each other. Apparently, the Jester had forbidden these meetings because of the danger to the girl. How exactly she was dangerous, the café employee never understood, but looking at her friend's sad face, she decided: she would somehow circumvent the circus leader's ban to make the acrobat happy.

Summary
The Jester, breathing heavily, pressed his hands tighter against his side, hiding behind one of the disgusting trash bins. The man tried not to move so as not to waste his strength. If he had been more attentive to those people and his own condition in the morning, the circus leader would have long since reached the Doctor to get treated, but alas. Apparently, he would have to hope that Pierrot and the Ticket Taker would definitely come looking for him in this cursed city.
