| Tsuzuru | Kuraki-sensei. As I thought, I’m going to stop being in the theatre club. |
| Kuraki | …..Are you sure? |
| Tsuzuru | Yes. I have family matters to take care of first. It was fun being part of the club activities in the short time I was here. |
| Kuraki | I see…. |

| Tsuzuru | …. |
| …(Talk about a blast from the past, that dream… Didn’t think I’d remember about Kuraki-sensei after this long.) |
| (Why would I have that dream now of all times…) |
| …I hope he’s doing well these days. |
| —Oh crap! Now’s not the time for me to be thinking about that! |
| |
| Izumi | Good morning, Tsuzuru-kun. Food’s all ready. |
| Tsuzuru | Gotcha! Oh, and good morning. |
| Kumon | Thanks for the meaaal! Ah, ‘morning, Tsuzuru-san! |
| Tsuzuru | Morning. |
| Citron | Tsuzuru, good morniiiing! |
| Azami | Tsuzuru-san, there’s something I need to talk to you about. Can we chat after school? |
| Tsuzuru | Something to talk about? |
| Azami | Well, if I have to be precise, it’s a request not from me, but from Shifuto. |
| Tsuzuru | From Shifuto…? |
| Kumon | Azami! If we don’t go now, we’ll be late! |
| Azami | I’ll tell you about the rest when we get back. Later then, Tsuzuru-san. |
| Tsuzuru | Got it. Take care. |
| Izumi | Take care, you two! |
| *DOOR SLAMS* |
| Citron | It’s about time for me to get going too. |
| Izumi | You have a schedule today, Citron-kun? |
| Citron | Yes! I’m gonna have tea time with the madames at the shopping district! |
| |
| Tsuzuru | (Today’s lecture was pretty interesting… Hm? Is that—) |
| Hey, Azami. Heading home? |
| Azami | Ah, Tsuzuru-san. |
| Tsuzuru | You and Kumon aren’t walking home together this time? |
| Azami | It’s not like we go home together all the time. |
| Tsuzuru | Haha, I suppose so. |
| Azami | Oh yeah. About what I mentioned earlier this morning—— |
| Tsuzuru | You said Shifuto needed me for something? |
| Azami | Right. Shifuto was told that you knew someone named Kuraki-sensei? |
| Tsuzuru | …!! Y-Yeah, the theatre club advisor…? |
| But how does Shifuto know of Kuraki-sensei? Unless he attends Fuko High… |
| Azami | He sure does. You graduated from Fuko High didn’t you, Tsuzuru-san? |
| Tsuzuru | I did but…. Wow. That’s some coincidence. |
| Azami | Apparently they started talking about you after Shifuto talked to that teach’ a while back. |
| It seemed like that old advisor of yours was wondering how you were, at least that’s what Shifuto said. |
| Tsuzuru | Kuraki-sensei… About me? |
| Azami | So then Shifuto told him that he’s got a friend who’s in the same troupe as Tsuzuru-san, and that maybe there’s a chance you guys can meet again… Seriously, that guy… |
| ‘Nyway, long story short, he wanted me to ask you if you could see Kuraki-sensei soon if you’re up for it… |
| If you’re not, it’s okay to say so. It’s on Shifuto for bringing this on you without warning—— |
| Tsuzuru | No, actually, I’ve been curious about Kuraki-sensei too. If there’s a chance to meet him again, then by all means. |
| Azami | Alright. I’ll tell Shifuto then. |
| Tsuzuru | Please and thanks. |
| (That dream from this morning seems more like a vision now…) |
| Oh right. If I’m gonna meet up with Kuraki-sensei, I should ask that guy to come with me too. |
