Hey, thanks for waiting!
I'm all set!
2

Kohane

Listen

Welcome back, An.
I'm glad you found something you liked.
3

Haruka

Listen

Alright, where to next?
It's past noon so...
4

Minori

Listen

Oh, you're right!
How does lunch sound?
5
Yeah, sounds good! I'm starving!
6
Also, Minori, I did promise to tell you more about Haruka from way back when.
7

Minori

Listen

Yes, please! I'd love to hear more about her!
8

Haruka

Listen

You promised to tell her more about me...? When did you two decide this?
9
So, Minori seemed really jealous about me being your childhood friend...
10
I promised to tell her more about you from back then, but totally forgot last time.
11

Haruka

Listen

I see.
Hehe. Don't tell her too much, okay?
12

Kohane

Listen

I... I'd like to hear more about An from back then too...!
13
M-Me?
14

Kohane

Listen

Yeah...!
I really want to know what you were like when you were little.
15
I mean, sure...
But I don't think I was that different, you know?
16

Kohane

Listen

I-Is that a no?
17
It's just, well...
Pretty embarrassing, you know?
18

Haruka

Listen

Hehe. If you plan on telling them about me, then that makes your past fair game too, right?
19
Yeah, I guess so.
20
Anyway, let's continue this after we find a place to eat.
21

Minori

Listen

Yeah, let's go!

22
Alright, where should I start?
23

Minori

Listen

Question! When did you two first meet?!
24
Second grade, right?
When we were in the same class.
25

Haruka

Listen

Yeah, but we weren't really friends at that time...
26
But started talking more when were put into the same class again as fourth graders!
27

Kohane

Listen

And that's when you became friends?
28

Haruka

Listen

“Friends” might not be the right word...
Our personalities were like oil and water.
29
Yeah... We were in totally different cliques too, so we didn't really get along right off the bat.
30

Minori

Listen

Wait, really?
31
Really. But she really caught my attention during music class one day when we all had to sing.
32
Most of our classmates didn't take it seriously, but Haruka was different. She took that more seriously than anyone else...
33
It's hard to describe, but she wasn't like the others. It's like she really cared about music, you know?
34

Minori

Listen

That's amazing, Haruka!
You've really always taken music seriously!
35

Haruka

Listen

I wasn't doing anything special...
But I was serious about learning to sing properly since I wanted to be an idol...
36

Kohane

Listen

That's incredible...
37
Hehe. I felt the same way back then, so I decided to try and out-sing Haruka by being louder than her.
38

Haruka

Listen

And it was hard not to notice.
I mean, every time our class sang together, your voice always overpowered everyone else's.
39
Oh, was I that loud?
40

Kohane

Listen

I can totally see you doing that, An.
Your voice has this natural echo to it.
41
Haha. Thanks, but I feel embarrassed now...
42

Haruka

Listen

But that did make me want to hear you sing more.
43
Really? That's a first!
44

Haruka

Listen

Well, I've never told anyone that before.
45
Why didn't you tell me sooner?!
I would've loved to have heard that from you back then...
46

Haruka

Listen

I'm saying this now because I couldn't then.
47

Kohane

Listen

...
48

Minori

Listen

Aww, I wish Haruka would praise me like that more...!
49

Minori

Listen

Not just current Haruka, but little Haruka too!!
50

Haruka

Listen

M-Minori...
51
Haha!
You really can't help it, can you, Minori?
52
It's adorable how much you admire Haruka, you know?
53

Minori

Listen

Yes, I really do!
54

Kohane

Listen

So, you two became friends through music class?
55

Haruka

Listen

No, that didn't happen until much later.
56
Right. We still weren't really “friends” yet...
57

Haruka

Listen

If anything, we were more like rivals.
58

Kohane

Listen

Rivals...?
59

Haruka

Listen

Yeah, we were playing basketball but on different teams this one time during P.E.
60
Yeah, I remember that!
That was a really fun game.
61
It ended up being a tie, but we really started going at each other after that. That extended outside of basketball too.
62

Haruka

Listen

Yeah, from P.E. to music... Oh, remember when we had a contest to see who could eat lunch the fastest?
63

Minori

Listen

What?! Haruka doing an eating contest?!
64

Minori

Listen

Actually, maybe I shouldn't be that surprised...
65

Kohane

Listen

Really?
I find it pretty hard to believe...
66

Haruka

Listen

Hehe. I can see why.
I also remember challenging you to a studying contest and immediately turning me down...
67
Because that would've been so boring!
68

Kohane

Listen

An...
69

Minori

Listen

I think I'm with An there...
I wouldn't stand a chance if schoolwork gets involved.
70

Minori

Listen

B-But I think I'd be willing to try if it's against you, Haruka!
71

Haruka

Listen

Oh? Can I hold you to that?
72

Minori

Listen

Yes, please!
73

Kohane

Listen

How about us, An?
74
Huh? Us, well... Eventually!
75

Kohane

Listen

Oh, An...
76

Haruka

Listen

Hehe...
77
But we really did have a lot of fun back then. We'd challenge each other and the loser would pick the next one...
78

Haruka

Listen

Yeah.
And we never really got to determine who was better at basketball.
79
That's right!
Who do you think would win right now?
80

Haruka

Listen

Would you be up for a free throw contest sometime?
81
Yeah, totally! You're on!
82

Minori

Listen

Wow, they're so close...!
83

Kohane

Listen

Hehe. They really are.
84

Kohane

Listen

Also, it's really interesting how they're so evenly matched at everything...
85

Kohane

Listen

(An's always there to push me in the right direction, but their competitiveness is what drove their growth.)
86

Kohane

Listen

(Almost like Haruka should be her...)
