Mizuki

Listen

What are you doing up here, Rui?
2

Rui

Listen

I could ask you the same thing.
I'm surprised to see you here too.
3

Mizuki

Listen

You sure do have a habit of avoiding my questions.
4

Rui

Listen

Hehe, I guess so. It's just that I don't have any particular reason for being here.
5

Rui

Listen

I'm just enjoying the scenery.

Mizuki

Listen

...
8

Rui

Listen

What is it?
You look a bit confused...
9

Mizuki

Listen

Do I? I just remembered that you said the exact same thing the first time we met.
10

Rui

Listen

Oh, did I?
11

Mizuki

Listen

But you seem a lot different now...
12

Rui

Listen

Hm?
13

Mizuki

Listen

Anyhow, do you know where I can find someone named Tsukasa?
14

Mizuki

Listen

He's your friend, right?
I saw you two talking earlier and...
15

Rui

Listen

Tsukasa?
Is he a friend of yours too?
16

Mizuki

Listen

Not quite. He's a friend of a friend, I guess.
I've been looking everywhere for him.
17

Rui

Listen

I wish I could help, but I have no idea where he went. He's like a storm that blows by and is gone before you know it.
18

Mizuki

Listen

Yeah, he did seem like the type who can't sit still for long.
19

Mizuki

Listen

I saw his play earlier today. The plot, his performance, everything was just crazy! I had no clue what was going on.
20

Rui

Listen

Hehe, that sounds about right.
He's like that day in and day out.
21

Mizuki

Listen

You know, Rui...
22

Mizuki

Listen

I saw you rehearsing earlier and you seemed to be having a ton of fun.
23

Rui

Listen

Ah, yes. Tsukasa, Nene and I were going over some lines for the play...
24

Mizuki

Listen

We used to spend a lot of time doing nothing on the rooftop back in middle school...
25

Mizuki

Listen

But I felt some relief when I saw you getting along with people and having fun.

Rui

Listen

Oh, I wasn't expecting an audience in such a remote location.
28

Mizuki

Listen

An audience?
29

Mizuki

Listen

I was here first, you know.
You got a problem with that?
30

Rui

Listen

Not at all.
I didn't mean to offend.
31

Rui

Listen

Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Rui Kamishiro.
32

Mizuki

Listen

Kamishiro, huh?
Oh, you're that notorious third year...
33

Rui

Listen

Ah, my fame precedes me.
Will you tell me your name?
34

Mizuki

Listen

Nah.
35

Rui

Listen

I see. Well in any case, it would seem fate has brought us together here today. It's nice to meet you, Mizuki Akiyama.
36

Mizuki

Listen

Why'd you ask my name if you already knew it...?
37

Rui

Listen

Because I wanted you to tell me yourself of course.
38

Mizuki

Listen

You're pretty weird...
39

Rui

Listen

Hehe. Yes, I get that often.
40

Mizuki

Listen

Anyway, what did you come up here for?
41

Rui

Listen

I'm just enjoying the scenery.
42

Mizuki

Listen

During the School Festival? Don't have anything better to do?
43

Mizuki

Listen

All you can see from up here is people milling around like ants down below.
44

Rui

Listen

You're right. But I like the view.
You can see just how lively everything is.
45

Rui

Listen

Everyone's enjoying one show or another.
46

Mizuki

Listen

If you like that sort of thing, why aren't you down there with them?
47

Rui

Listen

I wish I could.
I would if I actually could...
48

Mizuki

Listen

Sigh...
49

Mizuki

Listen

I guess we're kinda two peas in a pod...
