Nagi*Yawn*...

Classmate AMorning, Nagi.

NagiMorning...

Classmate AYou look sleepy~

NagiMornings make you sleepy. That's just how it is.

Classmate BHey, Izumi-san, listen to this. At our last match, the coach was...

HoukaYou still can't settle on a practice plan? That sounds difficult...

Classmate CCould you read that short story I told you about? I really want to hear what you think, Houka-san.

HoukaOh my, you finally finished it♪ I'd be happy to, if you want my thoughts.

Classmate DOh, Houka-chan! Look at my new nails! Aren't they cute?

HoukaOh, they're lovely. They're perfect for the season, too. I think they're wonderful♪

Nagi...

Nagi(Houka's weirdly well-connected. Or maybe she just gets along with all kinds of people.)

Nagi(Well, she is good at making nice, at least. Makes sense.)

NagiSleepy...

Classmate DOh, right, Houka-chan! Actually, I think I'm gonna start a band!

HoukaOh, how lovely. I hope it turns into something you really enjoy♪

Classmate DSo, I wanted to ask you something...

Nagi(Oh, no... I know where this is going...)

Classmate DHouka-chan, would you play drums in our band!?

Classmate DNot many people want to play drums, and having someone experienced would be a huge help! What do you say?

HoukaI'm grateful you thought of me, but... I don't plan on playing in any other bands right now.

Classmate DCome on, please?

HoukaUm... This is a difficult one...

Houka、Nagi!

Houka...♪

HoukaIf I leave things vague...

HoukaMy bandmates would scold me. I'm sorry♪

Nagi(This girl...)

Classmate BIzumi-san and Kotohira-san have been in the same band since middle school. They're really close, so don't pressure her.

Classmate DOh, I see. Sorry! I'll look for someone else, then!

HoukaNot at all, please don't worry. I'll be rooting for your band from the sidelines♪

NagiYou sure know how to use me when it suits you...

HoukaHow cold. We're the only two first-years in millsage, after all.

NagiSay whatever you want.

HoukaHehe... Oh, right. I nearly forgot.

Nagi...?

HoukaGood morning, Nagi-san. Let's do our best today as usual♪

Nagi*Sigh*...

Nagi(I hope we're in different classes next year.)
