Rin

Listen

I'm bored...
2

Rin

(Kanade and the others are probably all working on the song that made Mafuyu smile right now...)
3

Rin

*Sigh*
I'll go see what Miku's up to.

Miku

Listen

Oh, Rin... Can I help you?
5

Rin

Listen

Not really. I'm bored is all...
6

Miku

I see. Would you like to sit with me...?
7

Rin

Okay...

Rin

Listen

It's like you're always waiting in the same spot, Miku. Is it so Mafuyu can come here whenever she likes?
9

Miku

Listen

Yes.
10

Rin

But she hasn't been here lately.
11

Miku

The song and school have kept her busy.
12

Rin

Listen

Sure, but...
You're okay with that...?
13

Miku

Yes.
14

Miku

Listen

Before, she came here every day. She was in so much pain, but all I could do was sit next to her and watch.
15

Miku

Then she discovered her true feelings with Kanade and the others, which seems to have helped her quite a bit.
16

Miku

She used to come here because she was in pain, as if to escape it, but how she comes to visit.
17

Miku

Listen

So, I think she's in a much better place now...
18

Rin

I see...
19

Miku

But Mizuki is starting to worry me...
20

Rin

Listen

Oh, that's right...
Mizuki's been coming here all alone lately.
21

Rin

(Maybe today too...)
22

Rin

(I knew it...)
23

Rin

Listen

(What's Mizuki doing way over there...?)
24

Rin

(I could so say, Hi, and... Oh...?)
25

MEIKO

...

26

Rin

Huh...? She's gone...
27

Rin

Listen

(What's MEIKO up to?
Observing again, I guess...?)
28

Mizuki

Listen

Oh, hey, Rin♪
29

Rin

Hi...
...
30

Mizuki

Listen

Perfect timing. I was just getting bored and looking for someone to talk to...

31

Mizuki

Listen

Hm? Why do you want to sit back-to-back, Rin? Can't we just sit together like normal?
32

Rin

Listen

Because you always start playing with my hair when we do.
33

Mizuki

Listen

Haha. If you don't want me to, you know you can just say so, right?
34

Rin

I'm not moving.
35

Mizuki

Listen

Aww...
36

Mizuki

Listen

MEIKO upped and left after watching me or something, and now you, Rin...
37

Rin

Listen

Oh, you noticed?
38

Mizuki

Listen

Yeah.
Just people watching as usual I'm guessing.
39

Mizuki

Listen

Anyway, Rin, what brings you here?
40

Rin

I was wandering around and just happened to run into you, Mizuki...
41

Mizuki

Listen

Haha. Okay.
42

Rin

...
43

Rin

Listen

Do you want to me leave you alone, like MEIKO did...?
44

Mizuki

Listen

No, didn't I just tell you that I was looking for someone to talk to?
45

Rin

Right...
46

Mizuki

Listen

So, wanna chat?
47

Rin

Listen

Sure, why not?
48

Mizuki

Listen

Yay! Thanks, Rin♪
49

Mizuki

Listen

Wanna start by sitting next to me like normal? It's gonna be hard to have a real conversation if we're like this.
50

Rin

Fine...

Rin

Listen

Okay, how's this?
52

Mizuki

Listen

Great. This is much better.
53

Mizuki

Listen

Oh, that reminds me. I found this corsage that I thought would suit you a while back.
54

Mizuki

Listen

I want you to try it on, so I'll make sure to bring it next time.
55

Rin

No, that's okay.
I know you just want to use me as your dress-up doll.
56

Mizuki

Listen

Haha. Busted...
57

Rin

...
58

Rin

Listen

(I don't know what's bothering Mizuki but...)
59

Rin

(But if it means not having to see that frown, maybe I should just play along.)
