Tsuzuru "Romeo, you're going to carry this family in the future." Masumi "This town." Tsuzuru Eh? Masumi It's "this town," not "this family." Tsuzuru Ah, damn... Masumi You forget your lines despite being the playwright. Tsuzuru You even remember other characters' lines, huh. Masumi Even an idiot can remember the lines just by hearing it everyday. Tsuzuru Are you being sarcastic? Masumi You're just imagining it. Tsuzuru What? Izumi Stop right there. Continue with your lines, Tsuzuru-kun. Tsuzuru ...Okay. Izumi (Several days have passed since we started doing the read-through, but things still aren't going smoothly.) (I'd like to go on with the actual practice, but looking at this, we may not have enough time...) Masumi You're next. Tsuzuru I know. Izumi (And the atmosphere is bad because of this...) Sakuya Ah, so-sorry. I'm next. Izumi (In this kind of atmosphere, practice is getting harder and everyone makes more mistakes than usual.) Alright, that's all for today's practice. We're progressing slowly, so I'd like everyone to practice more on your own. Masumi By everyone, you mean just these two, huh. Tsuzuru Who are you referring to? Masumi Who knows. Tsuzuru You're really being sarcastic. Sakuya Sorry, I'm the one who should practice more, right? Masumi *sigh* Izumi (I don't have any issues with Masumi-kun's acting skill, but this part of him troubles me...) Sakuya Citron-san, I'll turn off the lights. Citron Okay. Tsuzuru Hey, are you awake? Sakuya Tsuzuru-kun? Yeah, we're awake. File:Act 1 Ch 11.png Citron How strange for you to come at this time. Sakuya You even brought a pillow. What's wrong? Tsuzuru I don't want to sleep in the same room with that guy. Let me crash here; I'll sleep on the floor. Sakuya Eh? Do you mean Masumi-kun? Tsuzuru Hearing his name alone annoys me so much. What's with that guy? He kept turning on me when I was practicing by myself. Sakuya Is that so? That's rare. Tsuzuru Rare? He's always like that. Sakuya No. It seems Masumi-kun is always alone at school. He's popular with the girls due to his appearance, but he's also known to be always ignoring everyone who tries to talk to him. I was surprised to know that he clings to Director, but I feel like he doesn't have any interest in us, like he won't even respond to us... Tsuzuru Now that you mentioned it, ever since we started practising Romeo and Juliet, he began criticise us more. Citron I get it! He's a tsundere. Tsuzuru He doesn't have any dere. Sakuya I heard that Masumi-kun's parents are usually overseas, so he's always alone at home. That's why I think he's just not used to interacting with people... Tsuzuru Home alone? He doesn't have any siblings? Sakuya I think he's an only child. Tsuzuru I see... I have a lot of brothers, so I can't imagine being home alone. Sakuya Uhh, I know that what Masumi-kun says is harsh, but I also think he's correct. I always panic whenever my turn comes, so it makes me wonder whether I'm the source of our lack of practice... Citron Don't mind it. I don't even mind not having a lot of lines. Tsuzuru But I want you to mind about it a little more. And yeah, well, you have a point. Alright, should we start doing morning practice? Sakuya Ah, that's a good idea! Let's do it! Citron Me too. The early bird catches Toku-san Tsuzuru Who is Toku-san? It's "the worm". Very well, I'll see you guys at the practice room at 6 tomorrow. Sakuya Okay! We should head to bed soon. Please use my bed, Tsuzuru-kun. Tsuzuru Ah, no, it's okay. I'm going to sleep in my own room. Sakuya Is that so? Tsuzuru I should tell that guy about our morning practice, anyway. Sakuya I see! I'm sure Masumi-kun will show up! Tsuzuru We don't know for sure. Citron Then, we should send a voice mail to Director and Itaru. Sakuya Let's do that! Sakuya Are you there, Itaru-san? ...Eh? I wonder if he's already asleep. Tsuzuru But I heard clattering noises from inside. Citron It could be cockroaches. Sakuya Eh!? Tsuzuru Isn't that the sound of a game con——. Sakuya If there are cockroaches, we have to exterminate them! We're coming in, Itaru-san! Itaru Sweet! 10 kills. Take that, you're a hundred years too early to challenge me. Sakuya Itaru, san...? Tsuzuru Ah, he's really playing games. Itaru Hm...? Citron You're in relax mode, huh, Itaru. Japanese dried fish! Itaru Ah—... What do you want? Sakuya Uh, ummm, we're planning to do morning practice tomorrow. Do you want to join us, Itaru-san? Itaru What time? Tsuzuru We plan to start at 6. Itaru 6, huh. I'll think about it. Sakuya Y-yes. We'll leave, then. Itaru Good work—. Sakuya .... Tsuzuru .... Sakuya He's a little bit different from his usual image. Tsuzuru It's not just a little bit. I took a peek at what Itaru-san was playing, and it's a hardcore online game. I heard that a lot of people from all around the world are addicted to the game. Citron "Ultimate Weapon 4" is an online FPS war game. Judging that he has that equipment at level 124, it means that he's a heavy whaler. He's super addicted to the game. Tsuzuru The fact that you even know such a thing means you're an addict too! Citron It's a mandatory lesson in my country. Sakuya Seriously!? Tsuzuru You're lying, aren't you!? Citron It's a joke. Sakuya And here I was wondering if you're telling the truth... Still, will Itaru-san show up for morning practice tomorrow? Tsuzuru Well, I can't say for sure. He's too busy playing games. For now, let's tell Director.
