Sorry about today, Kohane.

You came to join us for your party,

but we weren't finished prepping in time.

Don't worry about that! I'm already so happy

you all wanted to celebrate!

Besides, I enjoy relaxing with you too.

It's fun to go on a stroll like this once in a while.

Thanks.

Oh.

Hehe. It looks like we aren't

the only ones who want to celebrate, Kohane.

Huh?

Look, over that way.

Wah! When did they get here...?

You're all here for Kohane, right?

I feel bad hogging her all to myself...

Could you guys wish her a happy birthday with me?

Here we go!

Happy birthday, Kohane!

Wow...

Everyone... Thank you so much!

I'm so happy...!

You're one step closer to becoming an adult.

D-Do you think so...?

It still feels so far off to me...

Oh, there they are! Kohane! Miku!

What was that sound a second ago?

Oh, umm...

Everyone was wishing me a happy birthday.

That's what it was? In that case,

I wish we'd gotten here a moment sooner.

Yeah. Maaan, if only we could've joined in!

Hehe, hearing you say that is enough for me.

Thanks, everyone!

All that said, you two certainly walked

a long way. What were you talking about?

Hm? Well, all kinds of stuff... Like how

Kohane's a little closer to being an adult.

Has she?

She doesn't seem all that mature to me...

Though, I guess I don't know many people

who've changed this much since I met them.

What was that? I'll have you know

Kohane has ALWAYS been this cute and cool!

A-An...

Still... If I really have changed, even just a little, I'm glad.

Now that I'm going to more unfamiliar places,

it feels like I'm taking in so many new things.

Practice is incredibly tough... But I feel like

I'm focusing on music more than ever, and it's so fun.

So, I hope I can keep taking in

all sorts of new things, and keep changing...!

I see. I like your appetite.

Yeah, not bad.

So, since you three are here,

does that mean everything's ready at the cafe?

Oh, right!

We came to get you two because they're done

decorating and setting the table at MEIKO's.

Thanks, guys. Then should we

wrap up our little walk and head back?

Oh, wait! Before we do... Can we sing here?

I mean, so many people came to celebrate my birthday, so...

It'd be nice to thank them...to give something back.

Yes. That's a very nice thought.

C'mon, of course we'll sing with you!

Yeah, sounds good. Let's sing, huh?

Thanks, everyone!

Okay then, let's do this! Realize!
