Haneoka Girls' Academy - Corridor

ChieriSo you have to come by the bento shop sometime! I'll show you just how amazing Chieri is!

Classmate AYeah, we'll definitely come~! I want to try whatever you recommend, Chieri-chan.

Classmate BAnd I want to see Chieri hard at work, too!

ChieriHeh-heh, of course you do! The bentos will blow you away—and so will Chieri!

RaikaHeeey, Cherieee!

ChieriRaika. What's with that stack of handouts?

RaikaA teacher asked me to pass these out for the next class.

RaikaYou two are Cherie's friends, right? Thanks for always looking out for our Cherie!

Classmate ANot at all...! But wait, what do you mean by "our"?

RaikaOh, right. I'm Raika—Cherie's family.

ChieriNo, she isn't! She's Chieri's rival—and one day, she'll be Chieri's subordinate!

Classmate BOh, you live in Chieri's dorm...! Nice to meet you, Senpai!

RaikaNo need to call me "Senpai." Anyway, where are you all headed?

ChieriWe have biology next, so we're changing classrooms.

RaikaThe biology lab at this time of year means... You've got an experiment today, right? The one where you look at cells!

ChieriYes! Chieri and the others are about to use microscopes! Pretty amazing, right?

RaikaThat takes me back~! I did that last year, too.

ChieriWha...! You got to do it before Chieri...!?

Classmate BWell... wouldn't she have? She's a year ahead of us.

RaikaAhaha, good point~! That's one sharp friend you've got, Cherie!

ChieriHeh-heh, Chieri's friends are quick-witted! You may praise them even more!

RaikaAll hail Cherie's friends—the best in Japan!

Classmate BAhaha... Thanks, I guess.

RaikaOh, right—is Yamasen your biology teacher? The one with glasses and the bushy beard?

Classmate AOh, yes, he is. Did you have him too, Senpai?

RaikaYeah. You'd better take the experiment suuuper seriously. He gets really mad if you're careless with the equipment!

RaikaHe'll go, "What do you think you're doing?! That simply won't do!"

Classmate AHehe, wow! You sound exactly like him!

RaikaRight? I can do a few more Yamasen impressions too—

ChieriT-That's enough!

ChieriThey're Chieri's friends! You're forbidden from becoming better friends with them than Chieri is!

RaikaHuh? I want to get to know them because they're Cherie's friends.

RaikaCherie means a lot to me—you're family. So your friends matter to me too.

Chieri!

RaikaShoot, I still need to hand these out! Gotta go!

RaikaKeep being good friends with Cherie, okay~!

Classmate AYou've got a really nice senior living with you, Chieri-chan~

ChieriWe're not family—we're rivals! Honestly, she never gets it right, no matter how many times I correct her.

ChieriStill... I'll let it slide just this once!
