1. "Onee-san! Hello."
2. "Um..."
3. "Sorry, Shizuku has a fever today..."
4. "Kaori-chan."
5. "Eh..."
6. "I... I understand..."
7. "sorry, even though you came all this way,"
8. "so I think it'd be best if you went home."
9. "But we wouldn't want you to catch it too,"
10. "She's fine, she's fine!"
11. "I-... Is she okay...?"
12. "I have a re-quest..."
13. "Um, Onee-san."
14. "..."
Memuatkan…Memuatkan…
3. Surfacing wounds.
1. "You're so nice, Shizuka-chan."
2. "Real-ly?"
3. "You are!"
4. "Yes!"
5. "I mean, you're always helping Ruri-chan, right?"
6. "Well, she sits next to me,"
7. "Showing her your notes and stuff."
8. "and she's absent so much, so I feel bad for her."
9. "Yeah."
10. "That's exactly why you're nice!"
11. "Ruri-chan?"
1. "You could say that~"
2. "eheh"
3. "She's totally dependent on Shizuka-chan."
4. "Isn't the one who's always absent at fault?"
5. "..."
6. "Riiight."
7. "It's really admirable of you, Shizuka-chan."
8. "...I see."
9. I'm doing "something good".
10. "It's true."
11. "...I don't know."
1. "Ah."
2. "Thanks Shizuka-chan."
3. "We start from here today."
4. "Don't worry."
5. "S... Sorry. You're always helping me..."
6. Helping her is an act of kindness.
7. "Eh..."
8. "Ah..."
9. "It's not your fault you're slow."
10. "Look, you made a mistake here."
1. It felt nice to do "something good".
2. "Wooooow"
3. Apparently, my strength is that I can say clearly what I'm thinking.
2. "It's your fault, Ruri-chan."
3. "Everyone tried so hard because it's our last event as a class."
4. "But you made us lose because you were always absent and never practiced."
5. "Shi-zuku-chan..."
6. "Our class almost won!"
1. "Shi-zuku-chan..."
2. "How could I not be upset..."
3. "...orry"
4. "Sorry..."
5. Ruri-chan
6. never spoke back.
7. "You don't get it because you don't come to school, duh."
1. "S... Sorry..."
2. "Ruri-chan,"
3. "Are you skipping school because you know that you can just look at my notes later?"
4. "I mean, look how only our group is behind."
5. "It's because we have to make up for the parts that you don't do."
6. "N... no..."
7. "The other day I had to go to the hospital..."
8. "Eh..."
1. "Huh?"
2. "Why?"
4. "...Shizuku-chan, that's going too far..."
5. "..."
6. "Well..."
7. "It's an annoyance to us, isn't it? When she's absent."
8. "I'm just saying what I'm thinking."
9. "That's true, but..."
10. "..."
11. "..."
12. "Ah..."
1. "..."
2. "Ah..."
3. "Speak clearly, won't you?"
5. More and more
6. she kept apologizing.
7. "Sorry..."
8. "Look at Ruri-chan, she's been looking down this whole time."
9. "Eh?"
10. "Shizuku-chan, that's going too far."
1. "..."
2. "Yeah, but-"
3. "Well then she shouldn't do anything she'd need to apologize for."
4. "After all,"
5. but can't say.
6. I'm just putting into words what everyone thinks
7. Too far?
8. "That's my strength."
1. "Today's lunch is curry. That sucks."
2. "Ew."
3. "What? Why do you hate curry!?"
4. "that's unusual"
5. "Why is she so slow bringing the curry over?"
6. "I'm starving!"
7. "It's too spicy."
8. "Me too!"
9. "Ugh..."
10. "Ruri-chan!"
1. "Every-one's waiting!"
2. "If you walk so slow there'll be no time to eat!"
3. "Ah..."
4. "You don't have to apolo-gize!"
5. "S... So..."
6. "Eh..."
7. "Ah..."
8. "Come on, hurry!"
1. "Ehhh!?"
2. "Wow, someone from class 2 spilled curry everywhere!!"
3. "Sensei"
4. "Ruri-chan..."
5. "You really are slow..."
6. "Are you okay?"
7. "Jeez..."
8. "Eh... Why are you..."
9. "Ruri!?"
10. "So... rry..."
11. "S..."
1. "Are you okay, Ruri!?"
2. "It's not that big a deal..."
3. She's from the class next door...
4. "W-What?"
5. "Shizuku-chan."
1. "Eh...?"
1. "You made ruri trip just now, didn't you!?"
2. "That hurt! What are you..."
3. "Huh...?"
4. "She was slow so it was okay to trip her?"
5. "She was slow carrying the curry so..."
6. "No..."
7. "You pushed her back and made her trip."
8. "It was clear even at a distance."
9. "What are you saying..."
1. "What happened? Did she do it on purpose?"
2. "What's going on?"
3. "Did she really trip her?"
4. "Maybe we should call a teacher..."
5. "Is she crying?"
6. "That's not what I said!!"
7. "I see..."
8. "I just thought everyone was tired of waiting."
9. "So this is how you always bully Ruri."
1. I tell Ruri-chan for her own sake...
2. And that's hurting her!!
3. "Huh...?"
4. "You don't get that even after you see her crying!?"
1. "What you've been doing is bullying."
2. "You make it sound like it's for her sake,"
3. "But you're really just attacking her with harmful words"
4. "But..."
5. "No one..."
6. "and watching her cry without an ounce of guilt."
7. "We told you..."
1. "What? What happened?"
2. "It feels like you can't go against her, you know..."
3. "I was always scared of Shizuku-chan..."
4. "Shizuku-chan can be like that sometimes."
5. "Yeah..."
6. "We told you you were pushing it too far..."
7. "Sensei!"
8. "Shizuku-chan was bullying Ruri-chan."
9. I...
10. "That's terrible."
11. "Shi-zuku-chan was that kind of person?"
12. "Wow..."
1. But I was just doing "something good".
2. "Hypocrite."
3. "Shizuku-chan, that habit of yours"
4. "hurts others."
1. "Ha..."
2. "Ha..."
3. "Ah..."

2. "Shizuku!"
3. "Ah..."
4. "..."
1. "Onee-chan..."
2. "Oh."
3. "You're awake."
4. "Here, I brought you some porridge."
5. "Eat what you can and take some medicine."
6. "I'll leave it on the desk."
7. "..."
8. "Ok..."
9. "Kaori-chan came by today."
1. "...She asked me to give you this."
2. "She just checked on the morning glories and went home though."
3. A letter...
4. "She was worried because you didn't answer her calls or read her messages."
5. "Here."
6. "I don't know what happened, but"
7. "Oh..."
