1. I'm shimamura hougetsu.
2. I decided to skip class, but I'm not sure where's a good place...
3. Can't get to the roof, huh?
4. On that day, when I chose the second floor of the gym...
5. Maybe the gym...?
6. Right. I don't think it's used anymore.
7. And so...
8. It so happened that...
9. Adachi...
10. Was there too.
2. It was pretty hot up there, which was probably why she...
3. Had been sitting around lazily with her shoes, and even her socks, off.
4. I still remember her cute, little toes...
5. And the way she wiggled them around.
1. Known each other since school started, we aren't all that close of friends.
2. Neither of us takes studying seriously, and even though we have ...
3. Adachi and I are both first year high school students.
4. And as I go to check...
5. "I wonder if adachi has come already..."
6. That also goes for skipping class. I think:
7. Often find ourselves doing the same thing.
8. Ever since our initial meeting, we...
9. She really is there.
10. "No-one's on the first floor."
11. "Shima-mura."
12. "Let's play ping-pong."
1. "Okay."
2. "Yeah, I played basketball."
3. "Were you in any clubs back in middle school?"
4. "Really? Wouldn't have guessed."
5. "Ah!"
6. "And sometimes stayed late practising shots."
7. "I was pretty into it, actually..."
1. "It's no fun playing against an amateur."
2. "Yeah, yeah."
3. "Should we play basketball then?"
4. Also, our skirts aren't really suited for it.
5. She was just joking, of course.
6. Playing basketball would make a lot of noise, and we'd be caught instantly.
7. Much better.
8. For an amateur, ping-pong is...
9. Was adachi always left-handed?
10. "Hm?"
1. "Adachi, when did you last play table tennis?"
2. "Hmm..."
3. "Not since 6th grade, I don't think."
4. "6th grade!?"
5. "That's like, forever ago."
6. "Wow!"
7. "You're pretty fast, still..."
8. "Am I?"
9. "If I was in the classroom, it'd be third period right now."
10. "What was it on mondays again? Maths?"
1. "Or maybe japanese history?"
2. "Well, who cares ..."
3. "No..."
4. "No more."
5. "It's too hot. I can't."
1. "Ah... I forgot to put this down..."
2. "I want some wind..."
3. "Whatever..."
4. "Haa..."
5. "Huh?"
6. "You're actually really pretty, adachi."
1. "No I'm not!"
2. "I mean, not compared to you..."
3. "My, how immodest!"
4. So hot...
5. "..."
6. "What's up with that?"
7. "'tis being degraded."
8. "Yeah, that's it."
9. "Dignity?"
10. "Umm, what's the word..."
11. "Our school's..."
12. "Anyway, what are we gonna do about lunch?"
1. "Water and a danish, please!"
2. "I promise I'll go next time."
3. "Fine, fine. I'll go."
4. "Your drink?"
5. "Water is fine."
6. Come to think of it, she also bought mineral water back then.
7. "Ah!"
8. You said that last time and the one before that, yet both times I ended up going...
9. "You're going to class after lunch?"
10. Could it be...!
11. Instead of blood, she has water running in her veins?
12. Might that be why her skin is so clear and without any spots?
1. "Hmm..."
2. "Maybe. What about you? Going home?"
3. "I have..."
4. "Well... Not to class anyway."
5. Still feeling a little bored...
6. We simply happened to both come here at the same time and...
7. Never tried seriously asking adachi why she doesn't go to class.
8. "Ping-pong... Is pretty fun, huh?"
9. Tried playing table tennis to see if that would help.
1. "Sorry..."
2. "You're hogging the ball again."
3. Like, even though I do enjoy basketball too...
4. I always end up hogging the ball to myself.
5. "True that. Individual sports might be a better fit for me after all."
6. "Same here."
7. "I'll be hiding somewhere else if that happens."
8. "But, you know."
9. "If we were having ping-pong in gym class, I probably wouldn't go."
10. "We sure agree on the weirdest things, shimamura."
11. "Yawn!"
12. "Damn."
13. Adachi probably isn't aware, but I really don't like it when people call me by my last name.
14. "Shimamura... Huh?"
1. "Shima-mura!"
2. "Shima-mura."
3. "Shima-mura."
5. First thing that comes to anyone's mind when they think about "Shima-mura"...
6. I can't help but to feel that whenever people refer to me, that's what they're imagining.
7. Is the fashion store by the same name.
8. Being a "Shimazaki" or something would be much better.
9. "There is the chime."
10. "Off you go now."
11. "Yeah, yeah. I'm going."
1. "Phone... Phone..."
2. "Uuh..."
3. "Just a little more..."
4. "I know that feeling."
5. "Haa..."
6. "Ho Ho Ho!"
7. "Forget it."
8. "You..."
9. "Sloth!"
1. "!?"
3. "~"
1. "Haa... That was fun."
2. Still, I wonder ...
3. Who does adachi have registered in her phone?
4. I have never seen her talk to anyone besides me in school.
5. Could it be that...
1. Adachi is...
2. Coming to school to see me?
3. "As if."
4. "Still, I feel like if I bring that up with her..."
5. "She'll never come again."
6. "Yeah, I better not."
7. "Should I try going with water too?"
1. The next day.
2. "I learned a new technique. It only works one out of every ten tries, thoug-"
3. "Ouch!"
4. Is that how much she's into ping-pong...?
5. Even she has her cute side, I guess.
