What else do I have left to do...?

Oh, I still haven't done my morning strength exercises!

3
Character icon

That was a close one! I'll need to do those to ensure that we have a wonderful day!

Starting with pushups!

Hmph! Hmph! Hnnnnnnng!!

Morning, Tsukasa.

You seem more excited than usual this morning.

6
Character icon
Tsukasa

Morning, Mom!

7
Character icon
Tsukasa

That's because Saki and I are going on a trip for the first time in a very long while! I can't contain my excitement!

8
Character icon
Tsukasa

That reminds me. I made a special breakfast today as a way to boost my luck. Have some if you like, Mom.

Character icon
Mother

Oh, thank you.

I hope you two enjoy your trip.

10
Character icon

We will!

Wait, look at the time...

I need to wake Saki...

15
Character icon
Saki's Voice

You don't have to shout!

I'm already up!

16
Character icon
Tsukasa's Voice

Oh, you're checking to see if you've packed properly! Did you make sure to include bug repellent?

17
Character icon
Saki's Voice

Yeah!

It's in this bag...

18
Character icon
Saki's Voice

No, it's not...!

Wait, where'd it go?!

19

Hehe. You two are so excited.

(Mhm... It's morning already...?)

21
Character icon
Shiho

(Huh...? My alarm went off earlier than usual...)

22
Character icon
Shiho

(Oh, right... Today's...)

23
Character icon
Rin

<Rin-Rin-Riiiin☆ It's morning!>

24
Character icon
Shiho

Whoa...! You scared me...

25
Character icon
Rin

<Wakey wakey, Shih!>

26
Character icon
Shiho

Relax... I'm already awake.

27
Character icon
Rin

<What? But you're still snuggled up in your bed! You're gonna be late if you don't start getting ready soon!>

28
Character icon
Shiho

Okay, I'll get up. There's no need to rush.

29
Character icon
Rin

<Hehe. I'm so excited about visiting that cafe, picking fruits and seeing some pretty leaves!>

30
Character icon
Rin

<Thanks again for agreeing to let me go with you today, Shih♪>

31
Character icon
Shiho

I mean, you looked like you really wanted to go the other day when I told you about this trip...

32
Character icon
Shiho

I think Shizuku and Tsukasa won't notice as long as you don't pop out too often.

33
Character icon
Rin

<Right! I should be fine since I can just sneakily watch from your pocket or Sakki's☆>

34
Character icon
Shizuku's Voice

Shii?

35
Character icon
Shizuku's Voice

Shii, are you awake?

We're going to be late if you don't get up soon.

36
Character icon
Shiho

I'm already up.

37
Character icon
Shizuku

Morning, Shii.

I'm glad we were both able to wake up early like we planned.

38
Character icon
Shiho

You didn't have to worry about that. I had an alarm set for today.

39
Character icon
Shiho

Also, Shizuku, you've got bed head...

40
Character icon
Shizuku

Huh?

41
Character icon
Shiho

Look, around your right ear. This bit of hair's sticking up.

42
Character icon
Shizuku

What? But I thought I got it all...

I-I'll go fix it now...!

43
Character icon
Shiho

*Sigh*

She's so careless when it comes to these things.

44
Character icon
Rin

<She might've been distracted because she's just that excited about today. That happens to me a lot!>

45
Character icon
Shiho

Yeah, you also seem like the type to forget about fixing your bed head before going somewhere.

46
Character icon
Rin

<What?! R-Really?!>

47
Character icon
Rin

<But you've also gotten so excited about something that you forgot about other stuff, right?!>

48
Character icon
Shiho

I don't think so...

49
Character icon
Rin

<O-Or ended up just spinning your wheels...?>

50
Character icon
Shiho

Nope.

51
Character icon
Rin

<Y-Yeah, I probably am barking up the wrong tree...>

52
Character icon
Rin

<But you are excited about this trip, right?

I mean, you kept checking the weather forecast yesterday.>

53
Character icon
Shiho

Of course I kept checking the forecast.

Depending on the weather, we would've had to pack differently.

54
Character icon
Shiho

But I am glad that it's supposed to be nice out today.

55
Character icon
Rin

<Oh...>

56
Character icon
Rin

<Yeah!

So let's have lots of fun on today's trip♪>

57
Character icon
Shiho

Yeah, within reason...
