AnonWow! She really is a rich girl!

TomoriUm...

SakikoThis part is for the guitar—Mutsumi's section. Next is for the keyboard, so it's my part.

TomoriYeah...

SakikoThen comes Soyo's section. The bass part. The last one is Taki's part.

SakikoIf there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me anytime.

SakikoWell, what a lovely view. Ah, you can see that pedestrian bridge from here.

TomoriYeah...

SakikoWe screamed from over there before. It was my first time doing something like that.

SakikoEvery day was so much fun, I looked forward to practicing every day. The five of us forming CRYCHIC is true happiness...

Tomori...

SakikoIt made me want to scream, Listen to our music! Just like our band's name.

TomoriSaki-chan...

AnonWait, what's going on?

Sakiko(Enough already!)

Sakiko(I'm happy? You want to know about me? What do you think I've been feeling all this time!?)

Sakiko(You don't understand! You can't understand! You, who are still in a happy band!)

TomoriWait, Saki-chan...!

Sakiko(Tomori...)

Tomori...! Saki-chan...

AnonTomorin, are you okay? Wait, is Sakiko-chan over there?

Sakiko(Why? No matter how many times you fall or get hurt, you...)

Sakiko(You...!)

ButlerMilady?

SakikoNo, it's nothing.

TomoriWait...!

AnonLeave it to me. I was the anchor runner for my class all through middle school!

SakikoGive it to me.

AnonSakiko-chan! Wait up!

ButlerExcuse me—

AnonI'm her friend!

Sakiko...

AnonExcuse me for intruding. Oh, Tomorin, over here.

TomoriHaa... Haa... Haa...

ButlerWe're departing now.

SakikoYeah.

Sakiko(What are they planning, following me like this without asking?)

Sakiko(Even though it's already over. Even though there's nothing that can be done...)

AnonThe house is amazing... isn't it enormous? And there are roses, too. It's like a royal family's!

AnonHuh? A pool table? That's amazing.

SakikoTomori, didn't you have something to say?

Tomori...

TomoriSaki-chan...! Let's be in a band!

AnonEh...

Sakiko(What was I expecting? I knew this would happen. And yet, I obediently bring them here...)

Sakiko(I really, really... hate myself.)

TomoriLet's be in a band together, just like before... And then...

SakikoI already told you to stop it.

TomoriBut, Saki-chan, you were crying...

SakikoWhat could you possibly understand about me?

SakikoYou think being in a band will make me happy?

SakikoIf that's what you think, then you're more than being completely wrong. I have nothing more to say.

TomoriAh...

SakikoPlease excuse yourselves...!

Tomori...

AnonLet's go, Tomorin.

Sakiko...

Sakiko...

Sakiko(I expected, then rejected, and still— I can't let go of Tomori's words. I'm really... foolish.)

TakiSeriously... Tomori, what's wrong?

Tomori...

AnonAh... Tomorin might be a little tired today.

TakiWhat happened?

AnonShe went to Sakiko-chan's house to ask her to be in a band. But we got kicked out...

TakiTomori, is that true?

TomoriI just wanted... to talk to Saki-chan.

TakiI don't think that's necessary.
