Sevenelle loves persimmons.




Alba wishes all matters go well by arranging "four persimmons".
What? Four persimmons?   
On top of Alba there are 8 Chinese words.  The first line translates to: "Four Persimmons as Wished", the second line says, "All Matters as Wished".     In Chinese pronunciation, "Four Persimmons" and "All Matters" sound the same.   Thus "four persimmons" are a symbol for "all matters", essentially it means  “All wishes come true”.   Alba is wishing everyone's wish comes true.
