1. "Oh, that'll be fun to watch!"
2. "It says they start growing faster from here on."
3. "Glad to see they're growing alright~"
4. Already August, huh...
5. It's been a week since we planted the seeds.
1. "Oh, you came at just the right time."
2. "Eh? Can we!?"
3. I remember that...
4. "I want some!!!"
5. "Shizuku and Kaori-chan, how about some shaved ice?"
6. "I was cleaning the closet earlier and found this~"
8. "Ah, no... never mind."
9. "Hoshikawa-san, were you going to say something?"
10. "Oh?"
1. "go ahead..."
2. "can I!?"
3. "I want to do it!!!"
4. "Okaay."
5. "Shizuku, use this ice."
6. "ah, it's pretty hard"
7. "I'm home..."
1. "Welcome home."
2. "Welcome home~"
3. "thanks for having me!!"
4. "hi there, Kaori-chan"
5. "Uwa!"
6. "That shaved ice machine sure brings back memories. I'll have some too!"
7. "Shi-zuka."
8. "You can play with him!"
9. "Waa~ a dog!"
10. "Oh? Did I not say before?"
11. "Yes, it is!"
12. "So your name is Shizuka."
13. "Ah, sorry. I forgot."
14. "Did you get the milk?"
15. "Shion-kun!"
16. "Ah, and the dog's named Shion."
17. "he's a boy"
1. "Eeh? Really!? That'd be great!"
2. "That's right~! I'll do your hair too next time, Kaori-chan."
3. "Oh yeah, Shizuka-san, you're going to become a hairdresser, aren't you? Hoshikawa-san's hair when she wore the yukata was so good~!"
4. Asaka-san could probably get along with anyone...
5. "Wow..."
6. "Don't push your chores on us."
7. "eh..."
8. "but okay"
9. "Also, buy some milk while you're at it."
10. "Eh!? Can we!?"
11. "Shi-zuku."
12. "Since Kaori-chan is here and all, why don't you two take Shion for a walk?"
13. "even though it's earlier than usual"
1. "Good for you."
2. "he's so strong~!!"
3. "I always wanted to walk a dog~!"
4. "she sure is having fun"
5. "How long have you had Shion-kun?"
6. "Around four years now."
7. "Oh really~!"
8. "That's nice."
9. "Shion is such a cute name, like the flower."
1. "Eh..."
2. "Ah... it was nothing..."
3. "What was it?"
4. "...Hoshikawa-san, weren't you going to say something earlier?"
5. "Before we ate shaved ice"
6. hmm...
7. "ah... No..."
8. "Was it something you're not comfortable saying in front of your family?"
9. "About the novel for Ruri-chan..."
10. "...I see."
11. "...It's just,"
12. "there's something I wanted to ask you."
13. "Ask me?"
1. "When it's done,"
2. "I want you to read it."
3. I think I'll have trouble making it into a letter...
4. Even if I'm able to get my feelings out as a novel,
5. "...So can you help me?"
1. "...!"
2. "I'm happy that you're relying on me."
3. "Thank you."
4. "Of course. I'll help with anything."
5. "I'm the one who should be thanking you..."
6. "...? Why are you thanking me?"
7. "Ah... um..."
1. "Thank you."
2. "...I'll be counting on you."
3. "You're welcome."
4. "Is that so?"
5. "Eh? I can't do that. It's not something I really want to show people..."
6. "If you can't put it into a letter, I feel like leaving it as a novel would be effective too."
7. "...It's really nothing worth getting excited for."
8. "I'm so excited for your novel, Hoshikawa-san."
1. "I don't even want people to know I write novels..."
2. "You haven't told your family? That you write."
3. "So it really is just our secret, Hoshikawa-san."
4. "I had no idea."
5. "Of course not."
6. "You can't tell Shizuka-san and the others."
7. "Ah, but now Shion-kun knows too."
8. "Hm?"
9. "Asaka-san..."
10. "..."
1. "Are you not going to call me by my first name anymore?"
2. "I mean, everyone in your family is Hoshikawa, so..."
3. "Eh! No that's not it."
4. "I mean... you called everyone else by their first names."
5. "...Eh!?"
1. "...Not like I care either way."
2. "Hah!?"
3. "I never knew you could sulk like that, Hoshikawa-san."
4. "I'm not sulking or anything..."
5. "That's not it."
1. "...Then how about we call each other by our first names?"
2. "I want you to call me by my first name too."
3. "Shizuku."
4. "...I'm fine with that."
5. "...k-..."
1. "Um..."
2. "No, I know it, but..."
3. "eh..."
4. "Shizuku, could it be that you don't know my name?"
5. "Sad..."
6. "Then say it?"
7. "Ugh..."
8. "Yes we do!"
9. "...We don't have to say them now."
10. "...k..."
1. "So you do know my name. That's a relief."
2. "...Kaori...?"
3. "Of course I do."
4. "Hehe."
5. "That's me."
1. It's hot.
2. because I don't usually take walks when the sun is this high.
3. My face feels hot
4. because the sunset is making it look that way.
5. Asaka-san's face looks red
1. We're not doing anything special.
2. So why?
3. This is just a normal summer break.
5. "I'm going to take a bath."
7. "Let's call when you're done!"
8. Why do I feel this excited?
1. I think I can write it faster than I thought.
