She won't be able to get along with her new family as long as her old one's around... Including me...

In terms of what's best for her future, I feel like she needs to learn to get along with her new family.

Which is why...
Today, I said, “We need to stop meeting like this.”

Sh-Shiho...!

I told you not to talk to me, didn't I?

Oh...

Honami! How about we have lunch together...?

S-Sorry...
I kind of want to have lunch alone today...

Alone...?
Did something happen...?

*Gasp*
I'm really sorry... Bye...

H-Honami...!

What? Saki caught a cold...?

Yes. Her fever finally broke yesterday, but it seems to have taken a significant physical and mental toll...

Which is why I'm glad she has a friend here to visit. She should be back from her test soon, so I hope you can cheer her up somehow.

Okay...

Ichi, you're early.
Welcome.

Hi, Saki...!
The nurse told me about how you caught a cold.

Haha. Yeah, I kinda did...

One of those that makes your sinuses really stuffy too. I guess I caught it from someone, but I couldn't stop sneezing.

I blew my nose so many times that...
Wait, is it still really red?

No, you're fine.

Really? Thank goodness...
I was worried that everyone was gonna start calling me a red-nosed reindeer.

(Saki just never changes...)

(But I feel like she's pushing herself too hard to keep me from worrying about her...)

Oh, I almost forgot. My mom brought me some snacks when she visited. Wanna have some?

Thanks, Saki...
But I need to head back soon.

(But the nurse said she's tired physically and mentally, so I'd rather she saved her strength.)

Okay. That means I get to have all these snacks to myself! Hehe...

Well, within reason. You still haven't fully recovered yet.

I know♪

Anyway, I'll see you later...

I have to transfer at... Okay, I still have time.

*Sigh*
I wish I could've stayed to chat more with Saki...

...

I guess I can listen to some Miku songs instead...
