Emu

Listen

Really...?!
Th-That was Honami?!

Classmate A

Shh! Not so loud, Otori!

Classmate B

Yeah, this isn't exactly something we want others spreading around.

Emu

Listen

S-Sure, but...

Honami

Listen

Good morning.

Classmate A

Oh, Honami...

Emu

Listen

Good morning, Honami...

Honami

Listen

Hm? Is something wrong?
You all seem so somber.

Classmate A

Uhh...

Classmate B

Why don't we just ask her to make sure?

Emu

Listen

Yeah, it could all be just a big misunderstanding.

Classmate A

Y-You're right... Let's ask!

Classmate A

Honami, there's something we need you to tell us...

Honami

Listen

Sure, what is it?

Classmate A

Yesterday, after school, we thought we heard you arguing with someone.

Honami

Listen

Huh...?

Emu

Listen

We were wondering if you were arguing like that because you were having a fight with them...

Honami

Listen

...

Honami

Listen

(I thought that spot was secluded enough, but I guess it wasn't...)

Honami

Listen

I appreciate your concern.

Honami

Listen

I really didn't mean to raise my voice like that, and I apologize for causing such a disturbance...

Classmate B

But it really was you, huh...?

Classmate A

Hold on, Honami can get that mad at people?!

Emu

Listen

Noooo! That's not possible! Honami's a saint!

Classmate A

Yeah! Who's the one that made you do this?! Tell us!

Honami

Listen

Uhh...

Honami

Listen

(Maybe it's okay to tell Emu and these two. I'd rather not make them worry more by giving them the wrong idea...)

Honami

Listen

Please don't tell anyone else this, but I was with Shiho that time...

Honami

Listen

We were discussing something regarding our band and our conversation got a little out of hand...

Classmate A

Oh, it was Hinomori... Now it makes sense...

Classmate B

Yeah, she's like the most unwavering person I've ever met. I bet this isn't the first serious argument she's had with someone.

Emu

Listen

Maybe. You two both work so hard for your band too.

Emu

Listen

I really understand how you must've felt. I've had some not-so-nice conversations with people too and also had to raise my voice to them...

Classmate A

Yeah, I totally get that. It's like, the more you take something seriously, the more you want others to do the same.

Len

Listen

What's wrong with that?

Len

And you're trying to go pro, right? You have to work together, which also means you're not always going to agree on everything.

Honami

Listen

(They're right...
And they've all experienced this before...)

Honami

Listen

Oh, but Shiho didn't actually do anything wrong in this case.

Honami

Listen

She was just trying to do something for our band all by herself and I was just worried about what would happen to her if she went through with it...

Honami

Listen

So I told her that I didn't want her to suffer on her own and asked if I could help out somehow.

Emu

Listen

I didn't know that part...

Classmate A

So you had an argument, but also found a solution you both could agree on...?

Honami

Listen

Yes. So please, don't tell anyone else about what I just said.

Classmate A

Of course! Not one peep.

Classmate B

As long as you're fine with that, Honami. I guess it really isn't something we should be telling others.

Emu

Listen

Yup yup♪

Emu

Listen

Hehe. Still, I was really surprised when I heard that you were who they were talking about, Honami...

Emu

Listen

I mean, this is Honami Mochizuki we're talking about☆

Classmate A

Right?

Honami

Listen

...

Honami

Listen

(It really is important to clearly tell someone what you're feeling...)

Honami

Listen

(I don't enjoy raising my voice the way I did...)

Honami

Listen

(But it was something I had to do. Len was right. We aren't going to agree on everything and I have to express myself whenever a situation calls for it.)
