Airi

Listen

Phew...
I'm done with my homework and got in some practice. Time to get ready for tomorrow.
2

Airi

Listen

(We may have a good idea what we'll be doing, but I should probably get myself ready for anything that's thrown at me...)
3

Airi

Listen

Alright, I have every recipe printed out, so let's start by choosing which to do first...

Airi's Sister

Airi.
Huh? Are you working on stream ideas again?
5

Airi

Listen

No, this is for something else.
I'm baking sweets with some other friends from school for Valentine's Day.
6

Airi's Sister

With your other friends...?
Not your idol group?
7

Airi

Listen

Yes, because I'm giving mine to everybody in MORE MORE JUMP!
8

Airi

Listen

I'll also be helping my other friends put their surprise gifts together alongside my own!
9

Airi's Sister

That's so nice!
Does that mean your other friends have people they want to surprise too?
10

Airi

Listen

They do indeed!
We all want to give back to all those who've been there for us.
11

Airi

Listen

We're all after the same thing, so I thought I should help out by teaching them how to bake sweets.
12

Airi

Listen

I mean, I wouldn't be much of a friend if I didn't, would I?
13

Airi's Sister

Hehe. That's my big sister for you.
14

Airi's Sister

I'm sure they'll be looking forward to having you help them out, so good luck!
15

Airi

Listen

Thanks. I promise to make it a big success!

Hehe.
I'll need to see this through to the end now that I have an extra fan cheering me on!

18

Airi

Listen

Hey, Rin! Welcome!
19

Rin

Listen

<Would you mind if I asked you something right now? It has to do with chatting and communicating during talk shows...>
20

Rin

Listen

<Huh...? What are these notes for...?>
21

Airi

Listen

W-Wait, that's...!!
22

Rin

Listen

<Homemade chocolate surprise...
Oh, is this for...!>
23

Airi

Listen

Busted, huh...?
24

Airi

Listen

Yeah, I'm baking some sweets to show my appreciation for those around me.
25

Rin

Listen

<Aha! I knew it...!>
26

Airi

Listen

Yes, also, this is meant to be a surprise, so can we keep this just between us...?
27

Rin

Listen

<Of course. My lips are shut!>
28

Airi

Listen

Hehe. Thanks!
29

Rin

Listen

<Hehe. I hope your surprise goes over well♪>
30

Rin

Listen

<Oh, how about this?! Since you're baking sweets, can I come and watch?>
31

Airi

Listen

I'll be baking with some friends, but sure, as long as you stay out of sight...
32

Rin

Listen

<Yay! Awesome!
Good luck, Airi! I'll be rooting for you!>
33

Airi

Listen

Hehe. I promise to do my best!
34

Airi

Listen

I'll let you know when we get started tomorrow, so could you wait until then?
35

Rin

Listen

<Okay, just don't forget!>

Tsukasa

Listen

Thank you for seeing me out, Saki!
37

Saki

Listen

Of course!
38

Saki

Listen

So you're going out to get some stuff for your show today, right, Tsukasa...?
39

Tsukasa

Listen

Yes, and we'll be hauling everything over to the Wonder Stage right after.
40

Tsukasa

Listen

I plan on being home before it gets dark, but are you sure you're going to be okay being all by yourself, Saki...?
41

Saki

Listen

I'll be fine since Ichi and the others are gonna come over later!
42

Tsukasa

Listen

Yes, that's right. Then you're in good hands!
43

Saki

Listen

Exactly. That's why I want you to relax a little today for a change, Tsukasa.
44

Tsukasa

Listen

Alright, point taken.
Again, I should be home before it gets too late, but be sure to call me if you need anything.
45

Tsukasa

Listen

I'll be off!

Ichika

Listen

During today's practice...
Oh, I almost forgot. Saki can't make it today.
48

Ichika

Listen

Which means we'll be focusing on the rhythm section.
49

Tsukasa

Listen

Hm? Ah, Ichika, hello there!
50

Ichika

Listen

Huh? Tsukasa...?
Hello.
51

Ichika

Listen

I was told that you'd be with Saki today.

52

Tsukasa

Listen

No, I could be asking you the same.
53

Tsukasa

Listen

Saki said that you and the others would be going over to our house later...
54

Ichika

Listen

What...?
55

Tsukasa

Listen

Did you not have plans to meet today?
56

Ichika

Listen

Well, we were going to have band practice, but Saki said she couldn't make it...
57

Ichika

Listen

In fact, she said that she'd be with her family...
58

Tsukasa

Listen

Wh-What?!
59

Tsukasa

Listen

Saki... Please don't tell me that you've been lying to all of us this whole time!
60

Ichika

Listen

P-Please try to calm down.
I'm sure it's nothing serious...!
61

Shizuku

Listen

That dessert we had yesterday was so good.
62

Shizuku

Listen

I'm sure Airi will like it very much if I got her something like that for Valentine's Day.
63

Shizuku

Listen

Hm? Is that...?
