1. "So neither of you are joining a club?"
2. "It'd be great if you found something you wanted to do."
3. "Yeah?"
4. "Same."
5. "I went to a bunch as a trial member, but none of them really clicked."
6. "Hey!"
7. "So listen to this!"
8. "Is it about okuma-senpai agaiiiiin?"
9. "You've got band again today, yuka?"
10. "Uh-huh."
1. "Cool!"
4. I saw it at the school festival.
5. There was a literature club at my sister's high school.
6. "I know, right?!"
7. "Ugh! We still gotta go to high school after this."
8. "I don't wanna go to university!"
9. "Oh! That reminds me!"
10. "So okay, the other day, okuma-senpai, okay?!"
11. "Not agaaaain."
1. Me, yuka, and mana-chan...
2. Hung out a lot over spring break after graduating.
3. I was happy when we all ended up in the same class in junior high.
1. We're not doing the exchange diary anymore.
3. They could have kept it going just the two of them.
4. But I guess they're trying to be nice to me.
5. I feel kinda bad about that.
1. "No, no one."
2. "Do you have someone you like, ikka-chan?"
3. "Uh-uh. Not yet."
4. "Huh?"
5. "Do you have a crush on anyone?"
6. "I wonder if I ever will."
7. Now that yuka's started band, me and mana-chan walk home just the two of us a lot more.
1. "But it's not a proper club. It's one of the extracurricular activities."
2. "One of the once-a-week ones."
3. "There's no literature. But it looks like there's a writing club."
6. "There's an illustration club, too. Maybe I'll join that."
7. "Hmm."
8. "Why don't you join, mana-chan?"
9. "I feel like you'd get to try more stuff in art club, though?"
10. "Ha ha ha!"
11. "It's like, art club's too much pressure."
1. Hmm. Art club...
2. "My mom said the same thing!"
3. "We won't have as many chances to walk home together."
4. "Once we all start up in clubs, though..."
5. That actually...
6. Made me sad somehow.
7. "You're so right!"
8. "Aaaaaah!"
1. "Oh!"
3. Sorry this is out of the blue.
5. But can I talk to you?
6. About the person I like...
1. "Whaaat?"
2. "So she does like someone!"
3. "Someone in our class?"
4. "What? Who? Tell me!"
5. "You just got a crush on them now?"
6. "Oh! Or maybe you've liked them forever???"
1. "Huh?"
2. "She's not answering me."
3. She messaged just me and not our group chat. Which means...
4. No way.
5. "Maybe she feels weird about it."
1. "Finally!"
2. "Mana-chan..."
3. "Really?"
1. Mana-chan likes yuka...
1. "I didn't know."
2. "I'm sorry..."
3. "I wrote all that mean stuff."
1. "Yuka, too. I mean, she only saw what she wanted."
2. "Back when we would meet away from you, ikka-chan..."
3. "We used to be in the nurse's office a lot."
4. Asano-sensei more or less got it and would always let us take a break there.
5. We'd keep writing our story and things.
1. "Look, Mana, look."
2. "It's the next part of the story you wrote."
3. "So then you're the princess from the country next door."
4. "Ha ha ha!"
5. "After this, we have to kiss."
1. "Hm?"
2. "Kakizaki-sensei?"
3. "Are you in here?"
1. "It sucks hearing Yuka talk about that guy she likes..."
1. "Oh, good. You're home then."
2. "What is it?"
4. "Well..."
5. "Hello?"
1. "Oh! Then I'll come with!"
2. "Everything's fine. I'm just going to pick up a letter."
3. "And while we're out, we can get supper!"
4. "Yay! Evening outing!"
5. "Why don't we do that then?"
1. "Hooray!"
2. "Oh my goodness, coming all this way..."
3. "Akari-san! How you doing?!"
4. "Apologies for the sudden intrusion!"
5. "Oh!"
6. "We're just stopping by!"
7. "Oh my!"
8. "Pardon me. I was in the area myself, so I came to say hello, too."
9. "Well, come in."
10. "See you! We'll talk later."
1. "Waaaah!"
2. "I was so nervooo-ous!"
3. "But then I thought of how sketchy that would look..."
4. "I thought about waiting outside until you were done, ayano-chan."
5. "It's nice to not have to sneak around."
6. "But I was happy to worry."
7. "I did, though!"
8. "You didn't have to be so worried."
