Okay, do we all have our things?

I'm all set!

Huh...?

This drink's only half-finished. Whose could it be...?

Oh, thanks! That's mine!

Then, let's start heading out.

The after party's at Weekend Garage like usual, right?

Yes, Ken said he'd have a spread ready for us.

Then, we should head over while everything's still warm. But before we do, we should thank the owner.

Oh, I already did that. I bumped into him when I went outside for some air just now.

(Oh, I was hoping to go with either Tono or An when they went...)

(I hope I managed to achieve some results this time...)

(No, our event went great...

And I was able to sing better than I usually do.)

(But I didn't do that by myself...

Kohane definitely pulled us all forward...)

(Along with the owner wanting to see “good results”...)

Akito? Is everything okay?

The others have already left.

Hm? Yeah, um...

Sorry, Toya...

You go ahead with everyone to Weekend Garage. Tell the others that I'll be running a little late.

Okay...

Let me know if anything comes up.

Will do.

Now then...

Sir...

Ah, it's you.

Nice work today.

So, what bring you here...?

I thought you and your friends were having an after party. Are you not going?

No, I'll attend later.

But before I do...

Thank you for today.

I thought I owed you that much.

Anyway, I'll be...

Ah, just one second.

I already told An this, but I'd like to tell you as well.

Tell me what...?

You put on a good event.

What...?

I can't say that you were able to produce the same sort of noise and energy that RADder did during their debut event...

But you definitely created a good atmosphere.

So...

You were finally able to produce some good results, Shinonome.

...!

In fairness, I may be seeing RADder's debut event through rose-colored glasses. But I still put that on top...

Still, I'll be looking forward to hearing more about you and your friends.

...

Thank you. We promise to surpass Ken... We're definitely going to surpass RAD WEEKEND.

Yes, I'll be looking forward to that moment.

Thank you!

Akito, what took you so long?!

Huh...?

Have you all been waiting for me?

You know you guys could've just gone ahead without me, right...?

We're a team, so we weren't about to leave you behind.

Hahaha! You hear that, Shinonome? That's coming from the guy who's always going off and doing stuff on his own!

Anyway, don't be so standoffish with us.

So, were you able to speak with the owner...?

Yeah, I managed to say what I wanted, and I even got to hear something nice in return.

I see.

I'm curious as to what he told you, but let's head over to my place first...!

Yeah! I'm totally starved!

Akito...

Yeah, let's go.
