| Tangerine | Good sorning! |
| Citron | ….. |
| Tangerine | «Nii-sama, I’ll return to Zahra tomorrow.» |
| Citron | ——. |
| Chikage | You’re going back to Zahra tomorrow? That’s pretty sudden. |
| Izumi | Eh!? |
| Sakuya | Are you going home, Prince Tangerine!? |
| Itaru | But our show kicks off next week. |
| Izumi | Citron-kun even plays the lead role, too. Are you not going to watch? |
| Omi | Do you need to go back home that soon? |
| Tangerine | I need to return quickly and continue preparing for the conferment ceremony because I’m not doing good. |
| I’m brateful to everyone. |
| Tsuzuru | It’s “grateful.” |
| Izumi | …Are you really alright to go back home just like this? |
| Tangerine | I’ve already made up my mind. I’m glad to have come here. Everyone was kind to me, I had fun. |
| Izumi | I see…. |
| (He looks like he’s gotten over his troubles, but I wonder if Citron-kun is really alright with this.) |
| Omi | You were just getting used to life here; that’s such a shame. |
| Sakuya | ——Let’s throw him a good farewell party, then! |
| Omi | Nice idea. I’ll cook a lot of Japanese food tonight, since you won’t be able to eat it for a while after this. |
| Tsuzuru | I’ll help out too. |
| Itaru | Then, shall we, the Onii-san, prepare souvenirs for you? |
| Chikage | Other than shokugan, all right. |
| Itaru | If that’s so, I’ll give you a Japanese traditional capsule toy. |
| Chikage | He’ll end up receiving a lot of garbage if we leave this to you. |
| Citron | ….. |
| |
| …… |
| Guy | «Citronia.» |
| «Despite what just happened, he has already came all the way here. Are you not going to let him watch your performance?» |
| «You are the ministry of international art and culture, right? And he’ll be the next king, you know?» |
| Citron | «….I know.» |
| Guy | «Besides, you don’t intend to act so strict towards Prince Tangerine, right?» |
| «You seem to be seeing your past self in him, so you can’t look at him in the eyes.» |
| Citron | «….You can see through that, huh.» |
| «I was scared.» |
| «It’s true that father had discovered Tangerine’s talent as a king….» |
| «I, too, know that Tangerine has the qualification to be a wise leader.» |
| «But I don’t know how Tangerine feels about this.» |
| «Having such heavy responsibility suddenly pushed onto him, there’s no way he wouldn’t have been bewildered.» |
| «I’ve heard from Mika that he’s doing his best, but the environment around Tangerine is by no means easy.» |
| «He’s succeeding the throne because of me, and he’s getting compared to because of me. He’ll continue to suffer.» |
| «Tangerine might have had future that he was dreaming of. But that, too, was taken away from him.» |
| «I was scared to show Tangerine the me who is chasing my dream together with my beloved friends.» |
| Guy | …. |
| Citron | «There will be a lot more responsibilities coming his way. When he becomes aware of this, Tangerine may hold a grudge against me.» |
| «If I think about that, I can’t bring myself to treat him like l always had until now.» |
| «Do I even have the right to get close to him after I pushed everything onto him….» |
| Guy | «But Prince Tangerine still loves you. You’re a source of emotional support for him.» |
| Citron | «I know that too, but… I don’t know what I should do.» |
| Masumi | …. |
| Citron | Walls have ears, doors have eyes….. There’s Masumi at the back. As a punishment for eavesdropping on us, you have to do tongue twisters 600 times. |
| Masumi | The numbers are higher than what I’ve heard before. Besides, I don’t understand Zahran language, so I didn’t do anything wrong. |
| More importantly, there’s something I want to tell you. |
| Citron | ...It’s something serious, right? |
| Guy | I shall take my leave, then. |
| Masumi | ….. |
| Citron | What do you want to tell me? |
| Masumi | Not only does he stay in my room, but Tangerine also moves to my bed—he’s disturbing my sleep. Do something about it. |
| Citron | Oh, so he caused you troubles. But please enbure it until tomorrow. |
| Masumi | It’s “endure.” |
| And then, he told me yesterday that he respects you and wants to be like you. |
| Citron | ——. |
| Masumi | He wants to deliver a violin performance similar to yours, but he can’t do it. |
| Let him listen to your violin. |
| That guy didn’t run away from home because he hates being the king. He just wanted a comforting push on the back. |
| He wanted to be consoled by you, not by anyone else. He was hoping for your support, that’s why he came all the way here. |
| Have some faith in him. He’s not that much of a child—he knows what you’re thinking. |
| In my opinion, he’s a surprisingly solid and strong guy. |
| Citron | ——. |
| Masumi…. As I thought, you have to do tongue twisters 600 times as a punishment. |
| Masumi | But why? |
| Citron | Say, How well can Tsuzuru play the violin? |
| Masumi | Tsuzuru? I played with him two days ago, he’s about the same as Sakuya. It’s still far from the level where you can play it live on the stage. |
| Citron | That’s good enough. |
| Please tell Tsuzuru and Sakuya to bring their instruments and come to the theater. |
| The time when I’d need both their help, as well as Masumi’s, has come. |
| Masumi | But today is our off-practice day, you know. |
| Citron | No, no, no, this isn’t practice. This is the time to enjoy our “Spring”. |
