...

(Going to SpoJoy Park with everyone was so much fun.)

(I never imagined doing anything like that with Kanade, and Ena turned out to be a really nice person.)

(And we swapped contact info, so I'm looking forward to seeing them again.)

Ichi...?

...

Ichi?

Good morning!

Wah!

Oh, Saki, Honami... Good morning.

Good morning, Ichika.

Whatever you were thinking about seemed to make you really happy.

Yeah, so happy that you didn't notice at all when I was calling your name.

Sorry, I was just thinking about something I did over the weekend.

Something you did?

Yeah. Minori, Kanade and Ena stopped by to watch the street performance I was putting on down by the station...

Oh, Kanade's the person Honami and Asahina introduced me to the other day, and Ena's in the same music group as her.

Really?! Hm? Hang on...

Did Minori already know them?

She did. As it turns out, Ena and Momoi are old friends.

I didn't know that.

So they stopped by to listen to your performance together?

Yes, but only the last part.

Minori and them were exercising at a nearby park.

And she decided to bring them along since the opportunity came up.

Huh?! Wait, Ichika!

Ms. Yoisaki was exercising...?

Yes. She decided to try going on a walk in order to increase her stamina so that she can keep composing music.

I had no idea...!

But I feel somewhat relieved.

Outside of errands and such, she hardly ever leaves the confines of her home...

Really? I mean, I'm usually out the door if I have free time since I wanna do band practice and stuff.

Hehe. Because that's just who you are, Saki.

However, Honami, if you're surprised by that, you may want to brace yourself before I tell this story.

What?

M-Ms. Yoisaki went rollerblading, did bubble sumo and played strike zone at SpoJoy Park...?!

Wah! H-Hona?

Oh no! I-I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to shout...

That's totally fine.

I was more surprised by how surprised you were about this person.

Yes, well... I understand that she's doing this for her music, but to think that she did so much in one day...

Which means she's going to be very sore today. Is there anything I can do for her...?

Oh, I know! I can try coming up with a dinner menu that includes plenty of protein.

Still, SpoJoy Park...

It's sorta been on my mind too!

You have so many exercise options too. It was so much fun that we'd worked up a good sweat before we realized it.

Plus, it's good for your health and lets you work on your lung capacity.

Yeah, playing a bunch of songs back-to-back can get pretty exhausting.

Why don't the four of us go together sometime to work on our stamina?

Yeah, I really wanna go!

Playing bubble sumo like you said sounds super fun, Ichi♪

Hehe. I'd like to play again as well since it was so much fun. Oh, do you think Shiho would be willing to wear a bubble suit?

The thing that looks like a big, clear balloon?

It's not like it's a mascot's costume or anything, so I'm sure she'll wear it!

Who's wearing what exactly...?

Oh, Shiho, good morning.

Morning. I thought I heard some familiar voices...

Hehe...

Wh-What is it, Saki...?

The way you're smiling's kinda scaring me.

Don't be scared.

I just wanna ask you to do something, Shiho.

Ask me?

I've got a bad feeling about this, so can we skip it...?

What?!

I'd like you to hear this as well.

Yes, me too.

What? That's only making me more suspicious...

Don't say that!

The thing is...

I'll show you the pictures we took at SpoJoy Park later, Honami.

Oh, really?

Thank you, Ichika.

It's also nice to hear that you've gotten to know Ms. Yoisaki better than before.

Huh? How can you tell?

Hehe. Because you're calling her by her first name.

Oh, right...

Yes, some things did happen...

Ichika, Honami, the light turned green.

Okay!

Photos are nice and all, Ichika, but I'd like to hear more about what you did at SpoJoy Park.

Of course.

We can talk as we walk.

Okay, thank you.
