Good morning.

Good morning.

Still up bright and early.

Well, it's the start of a new term.

You've got quite the bedhead going there.

Right here.

Eh?!

What a goofy pose!

Ever since we went to the beach,

I feel like that tension between Chinatsu-senpai and me

has disappeared.

Nothing's changed - I still like Chinatsu-senpai,

and she's still all about basketball,

that's why we're living together.

But now... everything feels more real.

Cultural Festival

Our class has decided

to perform "Snow White"

A Sly Woman

starring Chouno Hina!

Well, leave it to me!

Just think of it like getting on Noah's Ark.

Noah's Ark?

Can you even memorize your lines?

Well, she's used to being in front of people.

Taiki.

You're the class representative,

I'm counting on you to keep things running smoothly.

Class rep or not, I just handle the odd jobs.

Shimazaki-san is directing the play anyway.

What are you saying?

You can't just dump everything on Niina-chan.

You need to make sure everything runs smoothly if problems come up.

How about not causing problems in the first place?

Well, I'm looking forward to it too,

so I'll help out as much as I can.

Inomata.

Here's the participant list.

Could you submit it to the second-years?

Got it.

I'll go turn it in.

You're quite the hard worker.

He probably sees it as training too.

Hey...

I didn't hear it from Taiki directly, but...

You confessed to him, didn't you?

Eh?!

That was loud!

I was just practicing my lines...

Are you okay?

Even though Taiki likes Chinatsu-senpai and they're living together...

You sure like sticking your nose in things.

Are you worried about me?

No...

Well, it can't be helped.

Hm?

Once you realize you like someone...

Hina!

Coming!

Still, it must be tough.

Excuse me.

Taiki-kun.

What's up?

I need to get this to Sasaki-senpai.

Everyone's busy with cultural festival prep right now.

Want me to pass it on?

If you could.

Aren't you coming in?

Ah... right, excuse me.

The second-year classroom is kind of intimidating.

Chinatsu-senpai has a nice seat. Back row by the window.

We just had our seat change today.

My class had one too. For the new term.

Where did you end up sitting, Taiki-kun?

Right here, actually.

That's too bad.

What do you mean "too bad"?

If you were born a year later, we could've been desk neighbors.

It's your fault for being born too early, Chinatsu-senpai.

Then I could've copied your homework.

Do it yourself!

Though even from the back seat,

you probably don't sleep in class, Chinatsu-senpai.

Yep, I stay awake.

You seem like someone who falls asleep in class, Taiki-kun.

And even when everyone in your row gets called on, you won't wake up no matter how many times they try.

Alright, next is Inomata.

Inomata!

Huh!

Yes!

Read your answer for question one, part three.

Uh... um...

Three-quarters π.

That's correct. Make sure you pay attention!

Yes, sir.

Hehehe.

I guess you'll have to skip a grade, Taiki-kun.

That's impossible.

I'm just kidding.

Kano.

Well, I should head back.

Okay, I'll make sure this gets delivered.

If I could, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Originally, we were in different years and clubs,

just watching each other across the net.

If we hadn't ended up living together,

we probably would never have gotten close like this.

I'm home.

Someone's here?

I'm so sorry for the trouble.

Hello.

Taiki-kun, it's been a while!

Chinatsu-senpai's mom... why are you in Japan?

My father collapsed, you see.

I jumped on the first flight back.

What?! Is he alright?

His life isn't in danger, but he needs surgery next month.

So I'll be staying here for a while.

I found a monthly rental apartment to stay in.

I see.

So...

Chinatsu-chan will be living with her mother a while.

Eh?

Thank you, Taiki-kun.

For helping with moving her things.

No problem.

That's great, isn't it?

Finding a nice monthly apartment.

Yes, it is.

Though it is a bit further from school than the Inomata house.

Even if it's just for a month until your father's surgery,

I'll miss having you around.

Right, Taiki?

Yeah, of course.

You're blushing!

Hehe.

I'll go return the truck first.

Ah, Taiki-kun, here's the key.

Oh, thank you very much.

No, thank you for everything.

And before club activities...

Isn't the girls' basketball team having a practice match?

Yeah, at Nishijo.

I see.

So...

See you at morning practice!

Right, of course.

Even if our living arrangement is temporarily over, we've grown closer.

We can still talk during morning practice.

Good morning!

Huh? Was I too early?

She's further away now,

so I guess she can't make it this early anymore.

Morning!

Ugh... this is rare for you, Haryuu-senpai.

Being here so early.

Mom had to go out so she woke me up.

I have a bad feeling about this...

Nice weather today. Up for a run?

Why do you have so much energy this early?!

Come on, let's go!

Wait... hold on...

Running is fine, but why today of all days?

I didn't get to see Chinatsu-senpai after all.

To think I'd be made to run the whole morning...

But it's unusual for Chinatsu-senpai not to come first.

Inomata.

Let's go to the cultural festival rep meeting.

I know it's probably because of the new environment,

but when she was at our house, she'd wake up and leave normally.

She couldn't have missed school, right?

Practice Room

What if she caught a cold...

Oh, good.

Unless I happen to run into her at the gym or school,

I won't even know if she made it to class.

Kano-san?

Yes?

What's wrong?

My stomach hurts...

Okay, then it's fine.

Are you joking?

Yep.

There's no point in thinking about impossible things.

I know it can't be helped, but still...

Next, Taiki!

Yes!

Here I go!

Go for it!

Fight on! Ten seconds left!

That was Chinatsu-senpai's voice!

Come to think of it, before we lived together,

this was enough to make me happy.

Hey, come on, wrap it up already!

Just a bit more!

Ten, nine...

Okay, I'll clean up!

Huh? Where's the girls' team?

They left already.

What?! When did they...

I wanted to see her one more time before she left.

I'm really tired.

Morning sprint, cultural festival prep, and then practice...

I wonder if Haryuu-senpai will make me run again tomorrow...

Still gotta fill out that equipment form when I get home.

But when I get home, Chinatsu-senpai won't be there anymore.

One month, huh...

From tomorrow, I'll try to talk to her more.

Right! Since we're not living together anymore, there's no problem with just talking normally!

Besides, someday...

This will become our new normal anyway.

I'm home.

Welcome back!

Why are you at our house?

Don't tell me you're staying here after all?

Starting today, at the apartment...

I just forgot something...

I see.

And I wanted to tell you something.

You missed morning practice today.

I was there! But... ah.

I went running with Haryuu-senpai...

Haryuu-kun?

Hey, you're the one who wasn't there, Chinatsu-senpai!

I took the wrong train.

See!

But...

I ran a bit from the station.

Things really have changed between us.

Well then, I'll definitely see you at morning practice tomorrow.

Yeah.

Beautiful young lady, I have a gift for you.

Wow! What a beautiful apple!

It's red and glossy, with a deep dimple at the bottom...

It must be super sweet, at least 15 on the sweetness scale!

Yes, yes, that's right!

And it smells amazing too...

Ho... Sorry!

No, you're doing great!

That's pretty good for such short practice.

Hina's doing better than I expected.

Even if the script changes are concerning...

Being able to perform confidently in front of others is a talent too.

That's true.

And your costumes look promising too.

People can grow when they're put in situations where they have no choice but to step up.

Like with your siblings always asking you to sew things.

Nii-chan

Everyone's handling their roles well, which is what matters most.

Does anyone have the key to Storage B?

Taniguchi had it earlier.

Hey, are we running out of duct tape?

I'll buy some.

How many desks did we need again?

Eight.

Oh right, there's a safety meeting now.

I'll go.

Sorry! Thanks!

Inomata-kun is surprisingly reliable.

He takes action quickly and is easy to consult with. It's really helpful.

Make sure to check the evacuation routes.

School Shop

I should get some duct tape and markers too while I'm at it.

Good morning!

Good morning.

But we already said that at morning practice.

When I think of you, "good morning" just comes naturally.

Hm?

Is your class doing a café for the cultural festival?

Yeah.

Our waitress costumes are pretty elaborate!

Waitress...

Welcome!

I want to see it, but...

The thought of her serving other customers in that outfit!

Well, I'm the class rep, so I probably won't be serving.

I'll just be managing things.

Eh?!

No, I still wanted to see it...

Your class is doing "Snow White," right?

With Chouno-san as the lead.

That's right.

I'm just handling the overall management since I'm the class rep.

Eh? I thought you'd be playing the prince!

No way! I couldn't do that!

A tall girl is playing the prince...

I see...

Ah, there you are, Taiki!

The teacher is looking for...

Ah, hello!

Hello.

Well, do your best!

You too, Chinatsu-senpai!

So, what is it?

Something about missing supplies...

This and that too...

This much?!

Chinatsu, the bath is free!

Okay!

Did you know, Koyuki-san?

That I like Kumai-kun...

Yet you still went on that business trip to Sendai with him!

That was just work, so...

I know that!

That's not what I'm talking about!

I'm talking about your attitude!

You're so sly, Koyuki-san.

Eh?

Nobody can argue when it's about work.

I'm sure you've been acting flirty with him all along.

If you weren't into him,

you could have just stayed away.

Everyone handles love differently,

but playing it both ways makes you look sly.

Don't you think so too?

Yeah...

This rubber duck my mom bought as a souvenir...

I'm a sly person, aren't I?

Even though I know how Chouno-san feels about Taiki-kun...

I want to go somewhere.

Sure, saying something like that...

Chouno-san would probably hate that.

But...

Back then...

I heard they weren’t dating yet.

Mmm...

Mmm...

But...

I wanted someone to rely on...

Inomata-kun!

Yes!

This must be what they mean by "all hands on deck."

Sorry I'm late...

You look tired. We're about to start doubles.

Let me grab some water first.

I know it's busy, but...

I want to stay on top of club stuff, but there's all this cultural festival prep...

Taiki, I understand it's tough.

Nishida-senpai...

You can't get back lost time, once it's gone, it's gone.

However, since you've taken on this responsibility,

you've got to make the most of the time you have.

Until the very end.

And my role is to...

be there for my kouhai's training till the end!

Nishida... senpai...

Captain!

That Nishida...

Getting all high and mighty just 'cause he's captain now.

He was more likeable when he was being his usual dorky self...

Good luck, vice-captain.

I don't care.

Who just called me dorky?

Stop being weird!

Your elbow should come up more like this.

I see! Thank you, Inomata-senpai!

You're welcome.

Inomata-senpai.

What is it?

A middle schooler?

A first-year from the middle school badminton club asking about technique.

That's the advantage of being a combined middle and high school.

Inomata-senpai!

What do you like about it?

No, I was just thinking how much of a proper senpai you've become.

Well, the first-years are still short at this age.

To think that you were once that height too...

You didn't know me back then!

Eh?

Eh? Are you serious?

Besides, I'm still growing, you know!

I'll eventually be about this tall!

No fair! I've pretty much stopped growing!

That's a boy's privilege!

I'm going to keep getting taller,

This height is just right.

Ah... yes.

Or maybe this height...

Hey, you're stunting my growth!

This isn't something to laugh about...

True, at this height our faces are closer...

As a guy, I'd like to grow a bit more.

The seven dwarfs told me, "Be very careful..."

Careful...

"Never open the door for anyone who comes!"

You remember it well.

Well, I've been listening during practice.

Kyou-kun, you should be on stage too!

I'm not good with those romantic love stories.

Ah... you do look like you'd hate it.

The heroine is always some poor, troubled girl,

and I can sympathize with that, but...

ending up with some random prince who shows up out of nowhere? I can't accept that.

Surprisingly girl-like perspective.

Come to think of it, I've never asked,

but do you like anyone, Kyou-kun?

What are you going to do with that information?

You always give opinions from the sidelines, but I wonder how you really feel.

Not right now.

Right now?

She got a boyfriend, so I gave up.

Sorry.

It's fine.

That's why when it comes to you,

who's going after someone who likes someone else,

I respect you, even though I feel bad for you.

You're amazing.

But Taiki's my friend, so

I'm not going to specially support you or anything.

You should take my side more!

No way, sounds like a hassle.

Ehh!

So who was the person you liked?

I'm definitely not telling.

Someone I know?

Who knows?

Snow White but I'm being sent on errands.

Go make some copies.

Career Guidance Room

Excuse me~

Hello.

Hello.

The copier?

Ah, go ahead, I can wait.

Your class is doing a café, right, Senpai?

Yeah.

Taiki told me about it.

By the way...

I confessed to Taiki.
