1. "Sorry I'm late."
2. "Sen-pai!"
3. "I was so surprised when you asked me out~!"
4. "Actually I was so excited I got up at 5!"
Cargando…Cargando…
1. "Date!?"
2. "Let's!"
3. "Could we go on a date this weekend?"
4. "Sakuragawa-san, we're over here."
5. "Oh!"
6. "So where are you taking me?"
7. "!?"
8. "!?"
9. "!?"
10. "!?"
11. "!?"
1. "We'll be paying for today."
2. "The menu here's so good... Try anything you want!"
3. "Thank you very much..."
4. "But, why now...?"
5. "Thanks for letting me borrow this..."
6. "Here"
7. "Eh?"
8. "Y-You're welcome...?"
9. "What's going on...?"
1. "Eh!?"
2. "You two wrote this!?"
3. "I'm Asai, a 3rd year."
4. "These are the ones who wrote that letter."
5. "I'm Ono, an alumna."
6. "Ehh! Eh-hh!"
7. "We had an S relationship before too..."
8. "I found it, when I'd started middle school..."
9. "Sakuragawa-san told us you were doing an S thing."
10. "...Nn?"
11. "Senpai~!! Why didn't you say something sooner~!"
12. "We're both S, so "why not a W date...""
1. "Weh!? She's the younger one!?"
2. Even if it's surprising
3. "Mizuki-san, let's be tactful."
4. "Urr-rgh"
5. "And, you... You're?"
6. "High school 1st year."
7. "Sakuragawa-san, what year are you...?"
8. "Ooe Haruyo, middle school 3rd year!"
9. "... What's that about?"
10. "Then when you came to find me..."
11. "Though... when I saw you at school, your ribbons..."
13. "Ahhhh!! Why'd you tell them!?"
14. "Well we had a big mixup, so now we play it like our ages are swapped!"
1. "That's so sweet~!"
2. "Oh wow..."
3. "It's so embarrassing!"
4. "Was I not supposed to?"
5. "E-heh..."
6. "Ehe-hee!"
7. "Why don't we try that too, Sayori-chan!"
8. "I think that's a really fun idea...!"
9. "Let's never do that."
10. "...Huh?"
12. "So that's another secret of yours then?"
13. "I see, so you swap ribbons to get into the role."
14. "Then we'll keep it between ourselves here."
15. "...It is."
16. "It's only when the two of us are alone though..."
1. "I was talking to Sakuragawa-san about how fun keeping secrets could be."
2. "It's so fun!!"
3. "As teenagers... you feel like doing something a little forbidden."
4. "The letter was part of that..."
5. "We were just two run-of-the-mill students."
6. "Teachers wouldn't remember us the day after we left."
7. "So it was about leaving a mark we were there."
8. "...Mhm."
9. "Like writing your names in a hidden place on graduation."
10. "A signature purely for your own satisfaction."
1. "That's why I'm really happy..."
2. "The seeds we left behind spread into a new generation."
3. "It means a lot you're giving new life to our time there."
4. "There was another one before too, wasn't there?"
5. "So then, Mizuki-san, about the letters..."
6. "Another one!?"
7. "Eeh!?"
2. "when I was in the library study-ing..."
3. "A different girl had found it,"
4. "Mm-hm."
5. Which book next~
6. "Eh!?"
7. "Ono-san..."
8. "Our class rep, Yamabe-san."
9. "What is it...?"
1. "Ah... Aohh..."
2. "D-Do you like that one?"
3. "I remembered seeing it at my grandma's house is all."
4. "Oh, that book...!"
7. "The letter we'd left for you was about the same as the one I saw."
8. "But there was this letter inside..."
9. "Saying to... find a dear friend with it."
10. "But see,"
11. "And that's what I saw..."
12. "That stayed in my head... Until I copied it with Sayori-chan."
13. "Hmm, then want to do a copycat?"
1. "There was another page."
2. "And I never got to see it, so I don't know what it said..."
3. "Only Yamabe-san would know."
4. "Could we get in touch with her?"
5. "I already asked her."
6. "She said she'd tell you more if you're interested!"
7. "Already-!?"
8. "She's awfully cooperative..."
1. ...Maybe she was looking to tell someone.
2. but at the same time... isn't part of it the urge to let others know?
3. Secrets only exist if you don't tell anyone,
4. I have to think she wants to talk about it too...
5. If she's keeping a secret just like we are,
1. "Secrets always have an inner conflict."
2. "On that note... Sakuragawa-san?"
3. "Isn't there something you need to tell Ooe-san?"
4. "Ooe-san."
5. "The reason Sakuragawa-san came to find me"
6. "was to ask if I could be with you and take her place."
7. "...!?"
8. "Eh?"
9. "Huh...!?"
10. "But, why...?"
11. "You were so interested in who sent the letter..."
12. "So I thought... you'd be happier with her..."
13. "But... why would you think that?"
1. "Sumi-chan..."
2. "But now you realize you were wrong, don't you?"
3. "She only did what she thought was best."
4. "...I'm sorry."
1. "I told her, I already have someone special to me."
2. "Besides, I flatly turned her down!"
3. "H-Hawawaa!"
4. "Awh hhh"
5. "I can't believe I saaaid that..."
6. "Mh-hehehe"
7. "I-I'm not letting you have her~!"
8. "You see, she..."
9. "And at any rate... don't feel too hurt by Sakura-gawa-san."
1. "said it was because she cares about you very deeply."
2. "Somehow, even after trying to leave you,"
3. "that thought made me jealous."
4. "I didn't tell you about today because I was worried you'd be excited to meet them."
1. even when all I was doing was feeding my own ego.
2. I covered up what I wanted with loving words,
3. And when I heard Senpai had someone, it was like I could breathe again.
4. "...Do you love me, Sumi-chan?"
5. "...I do."
1. She's keeping it a surprise...!?
2. I was oh so excited for our date today!
3. What do I wear!?
4. Can't sleep... Not sleepymimimi
5. "Then no more sneaking behind my back!"
6. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again."
7. "can I start over now?"
8. "Our date..."
9. "So please,"
10. "...hold"
1. "Wherever you want to lead me!"
2. "Aww... They were cute, weren't they."
3. As light shines brighter, shadows grow longer.

6. "So she said us S couples should have a W date."
7. W date is a casual shorthand for double date, but I kept it because of the play on English letters. Kasumi's being silly but not that silly.
8. And because the bubble's small.
9. The flower on the cover page is a white clover. In the language of flowers they signify Think of me, promises, belong to me, and even revenge.
10. Of course it also evokes hanging flower symbolism, representing secrecy. The one above a clean silhouette while below its more detailed and withering.

15. "I like you."
