And then, and then, Airi...!

Saki...
I get you're happy about it, but you've already told this story like ten times.

What?! Have I been talking about it that much?

That goes to show how wonderful a memory it is for you.

Oh! I'm pretty sure I haven't shown you this yet, though!

You see... I got a picture of me and Airi!
Look, look!

Wow... That's amazing!
I'm so glad for you, Saki!

You're looking a little bashful here, Saki.

I-I mean...!
Airi was so dazzling when she was in idol mode...

My heart really got racing!

Yeah, I'm sure it would for me too if I got to take a picture like this with somebody I always dreamed of meeting!

I'm glad you got a precious photo to put in your album.

So, what other kinds of pictures have you gotten? You've been doing a bunch of the things on your list, right?

Well... I made a domino chain with Tsukasa... And I studied with my classmates at a diner too!

Here, these are the pictures!

Wow... There are dominoes lined up all over the room. Tsukasa looks really serious too.

Your study session also looks like fun.
Though, I see you all ordered parfaits, pancakes and other treats.

Way too many...
Were you even able to open up your notebooks on that table?

It's fine, it's fine!
Time spent snacking and chatting with friends is all part of the study session experience!

(Huh? This picture...)

Oh, and! This picture is from when me, Ichi and Haruka recorded a challenge video!

A challenge video?

That's when people record themselves trying to do something difficult. Like...knocking over a pencil by throwing an eraser from far away.

We set out to roll six dice and have them all land on the same number, and it really was an ordeal...

Yeah! They totally refused to match up, so we rolled like two hundred times!

(Yeah, it's the same for this picture...)

(Saki's in the photo with Momoi, but most of the other pictures are of other people.)

(And even for the ones she is in, she's not fully in frame since she's holding the camera...)

Huh? I got a message from Mom...

Ack! I was supposed to pick up the ingredients for dinner today!

Sorry, everyone!
Mom won't be able to make our ginger fried pork if I don't hurry, so I'll head back now!

Ah, be careful not to trip and fall over!

Will do!
See you all tomorrow! Bye bye!

Well, I guess we should start getting ready to head home as well.

Um... Hold on a second.

There's something I want to talk to you guys about...

So there aren't many decent pictures of Saki, huh...?

I was kind of thinking that as well...

If she's making a photo album, I'm sure it'd be better to have lots of pictures that clearly show her.

That should make it easier to remember how much fun she had with everyone whenever she looks at it.

Yeah... I agree.

So, why don't we take pictures of Saki whenever we do the stuff on her list with her?

Oh...! That way, we can get good pictures of her!

Yeah. I think she'll like that...!

Oh... I've got an idea!

If you're gonna give her pictures, you should make it a surprise! Don't you think that would make her even happier?!

Yeah... Saki tends to enjoy that sort of thing, so that might be good.

Then we'll have to be as sneaky as possible with our photography.

Right. Let's do our best to make sure she loves the surprise!

Thanks for coming, everybody!

I wanted to play with everyone too, so it's my pleasure.

It's been a while since I've played, so I'm not sure I'll do well... But I'll try my best!

You guys! Wh-Wh-Wh-What are we gonna do?!

What's wrong, Emu?

So, I went to the gym since I wanted to do some warmup exercises, but there were already some girls there using it!

Wait, for real?!

*Sob*
I'm sorry! If I'd just run ahead to secure our spot...

Don't blame yourself.
I hadn't thought about securing a spot either... It's just some bad timing.

Then, why don't we go to the schoolyard?
If we draw lines in the dirt with our shoes, we can make a court ourselves.

Oh... But I heard the softball team is using the schoolyard. They apparently have a practice match coming up.

Huuuh? What do we do?!
And after you all came to join me for this...

Isn't there any other place that might work...?

Hm?
What are you all doing gathered around here?

Oh! Asahina!

Um... Actually, we're looking for somewhere we can play dodgeball. The gym and the schoolyard are both taken.

Do you know any good spots, Asahina?

Dodgeball...?
In that case, you'll be able to play as long as there's room to draw up a court, right?

It might be a bit small, but there's a spot on the way over to the archery range that might work.

R-Really?!

Yeah. It's in an area behind the school that people don't go to that often, so I don't think anyone will be using it.

Wow, thanks so much, Asahina!

Isn't this great, Saki?☆

Yeah! Thank you, Emu!

Well, I'll be off.
Have fun, everyone.

We will!

Oh...

W-Wait just a moment, please!

Otori? What is it?

Would you like to play dodgeball too, Asahina?

What...?

Um... I figure you might be busy with studying and stuff, but...

I just know this is gonna be suuuper fun!!!

So, even just for five minutes...!

...

Well...

Since you insist, maybe I'll take you up on your offer for a bit.

Wha—
R-Really?!

Sure... I was just thinking that I want to take a breather.

Thanks for inviting me along, Otori.
Is that alright with everyone?

Yes! Of course!

Thank you.
Then, I'll go get ready.
