Mizuki

Listen

What? You're helping with a solo exhibit?
2

Ena

Listen

Yeah, as part of a special lesson for my art class.
3

Ena

Listen

To be fair, it's gonna be just me and Mr. Yukihira.
4

Mafuyu

Listen

I see.
5

Rin

Listen

Wait, what's a solo exhibit?
6

Len

Listen

Uhh... Is it different from the ones they do at art museums?
7

Ena

Listen

So, your standard art exhibit usually involves displaying various works revolving around a certain theme...
8

Ena

Listen

But a solo exhibit involves the works of just one artist.
9

Ena

Listen

Like this...

Len

Listen

So many paintings...
This is amazing.
11

Rin

Listen

There's stuff other than paintings too.
12

Ena

Listen

Yeah, some solo exhibits focus on sculptures or other inanimate objects. It all depends on what the artist wants to express.
13

Len

Listen

I see...
14

Mizuki

Listen

It's pretty cool how you can get a glimpse of what's going on inside the artist's head based on what they put on display!
15

Miku

Listen

So, what are your tasks going to involve?
16

Ena

Listen

Hmm, could be a number of things...
But since they've already picked out a venue and what to put on display, I'll probably be helping move the paintings and putting up decorations.
17

Kanade

Listen

That sounds like a lot of physical work...
18

Len

Listen

But sounds fun...
19

Mafuyu

Listen

Are you interested, Len?
20

Len

Listen

Y-Yeah...
I really wanna see what it looks like once all the paintings are put up.
21

Rin

Listen

Me too.
22

Rin

Listen

So, Ena, can we come see it...?
23

Ena

Listen

What?
24

Ena

Listen

Umm... I mean, sure...
25

Mizuki

Listen

Is something wrong?
26

Ena

Listen

Nothing's wrong per se...
27

Ena

Listen

But this is his... My dad's exhibit...
28

Mizuki

Listen

What...?
29

Mizuki

Listen

Are you sure you're gonna be okay?
30

Ena

Listen

I think so, but I'm not really looking forward to it...
31

Len

Listen

...?
Is it bad that you're helping your dad with his exhibit...?
32

Ena

Listen

Bad isn't quite it... It's just that, we have some history between us...
33

Len

Listen

H-History...?
34

Len

Listen

Umm...
35

Ena

Listen

Don't worry about me.
I'll probably be fine.

36

Ena

Listen

Again, I'm not looking forward to it...
37

Ena

Listen

But there must be a reason why my teacher offered to give me a special lesson, so I don't wanna pass up this opportunity.
38

Mizuki

Listen

Ena...
39

Mizuki

Listen

Okay.
40

Kanade

Listen

Good luck.
41

Ena

Listen

*Nod*
Thanks.
42

Ena

Listen

I'll probably be helping set everything up in the morning. Rin, Len, you two can come over whenever during that time.
43

Len

Listen

O-Okay...
