Chibi Miku 49

Panel 2:  A (character written on stick)

Panel 4:  Akari (light)

Explanation:  Those familiar with popsicles and ice cream in Japan will understand this.  Most popsicle sticks have either the words あたり (atari, win) or はずれ (hazure, lose) on them.  It's basically a little game, and if you get a winning stick, you can trade it in at the store for a free ice cream (or mail in for a certificate).

Chibi Miku, on the otherhand, got あかり (akari, light) on her stick, hence her confusion in panel 3.  This play on words will become clear in the next installment of Chibi Miku (debuting Yowane Haku).  ^_^

i remember when younger it used to be fun to get those icecreams and try to get a free one, they used to just let you pick another and often you could win again but they soon stopped that and gave you a non comp freebie. lol

Haven't ate an ice cream in century. Remember when I'm still a wee' child I dare not to ask if I can change for goods/extra ice cream in school canteen when I was a child. Was guessing that I couldn't do so anyway xD

The ice cream looks like it's soda-flavored. Those popsicles are so good~!
