The next day.
“So Kazuki was immediately chased away?”
“Yeah.”
Tadashi asked me, so I told him what happened yesterday.
Only Tadashi knows that I know where Hiuri's house is. If it's Tadashi, he won't look at me with jealousy or try to use force on me.
Tadashi knows nothing about Hiuri's parents. Even people other than Tadashi have no way of knowing what kind of people Hiuri...

“Uuu...”
“There there...”
I was single-mindedly patting Hiuri. Hiuri is hugging me, and to be honest, it's a bit painful even though we’re in the dream, but with the circumstance as it is, I don't stop patting her.
Before, when Hiuri caught a cold, neither of her parents were at home. Thanks to that, I was able to enter the house and see that squishy Hiuri, but ...

“Hiuri?”
“...”
“Hiuri!”
“Eh!? What, what’s wrong?”
In the dream, Hiuri was spacing out, and when I called out to her, her response was more sluggish than usual.
“Are you okay?”
“What? I’m okay.”
Even if this is a dream, Hiuri is usually dignified. Therefore, the fact that she doesn’t respond when I call her means there is some kind of...

Tadashi raises his voice in the classroom. Today is the test return day.
“Look at this score, Kazuki!”
The score Tadashi showed is 50 points. To be honest, I don't think it's a score that he should be overjoyed with, but... well, considering Tadashi's usual score, I guess it's a score that he can be happy with.
Tadashi was concentrating during the joint test study...
“Is there anything you don't understand, Nakano-kun?”
“I’m fine, Sakura-san.”
We are studying after taking the break. Hiuri sometimes shows concern for me and asks me that, but since what I'm currently studying is what I'm good at, I don't need to ask any questions.
I only single-mindedly keep doing the exercises, but I am doing them with the determination not to lower my score in the...
The next Sunday. Me, Tadashi, and Hiuri. Furthermore, Hayashi-san and Kannazuki-san, all of us come to the spacious rental space.
At first, we thought that a regular library would be fine, but Hiuri wouldn't be able to concentrate that way, so Tadashi and I decided to split the cost and rent a space. Hiuri attracts attention after all...
Since all we needed was desks and chairs, we rented an ordin...
“BueEee”
“...”
“BueEee”
“...”
“...BueEee!”
“Shut up!”
In front of me, the one who was making the strange noise was Tadashi. He's slumped over his desk while letting out something that sounds like a B-movie zombie.
“Didn’t I say ‘bueeee’! Ask me what happened!”
“You're just feeling languid after the events are over anyway.”
“That’s t...
“Are you planning to have a cultural festival even in the dream?”
“I just thought about the cultural festival when I went to bed.”
As usual, in the dream.
I was thinking about the cultural festival the moment I went to sleep, so instead of the white space, we were standing at the school while the cultural festival was being held.
“It was fun, wasn't it? The cultural festival....
2023-10-02 22:39:14 +0000 UTC View PostWith several encouragement from Hiuri, I managed to regain my composure.
“You don't have to feel that depressed. Didn’t you say the prize was too small?"
“Since we made it that far, wouldn’t you want to clear it?”
That said, we proceed through the school festival in a peaceful atmosphere.
“Hmm, then, next is this place.”
“...Aah.”
The classroom Hiuri stopped ...
2023-10-02 22:36:40 +0000 UTC View Post“Hmm...”
“What's wrong, Hiuri?”
After finishing our choco bananas, we are walking around randomly, Hiuri looks at the food stall and hums. There is a yakisoba stall in the direction of her gaze.
Could it be, she wants to eat it?
“When I'm with Kazuki-kun, I just can't control myself. I feel like eating right now is okay.”
“Do your best with your self-control.”

2023-10-01 22:58:53 +0000 UTC View PostAfter Hiuri ran away, the number of customers increased, probably because Hiuri's was here just now.
Also, because of Hiuri wearing the maid uniform, the number of people wanting to wear it decreased. They probably didn't want to wear it anymore because they were afraid of being compared to Hiuri.
Also, I don't know why, but the maid uniform Hiuri wears is managed separately. I think it's probably...
2023-10-01 22:55:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe day of the cultural festival. Our classroom has been very busy since morning.
At our cafe, the hardest part is the preparation for the day of the event because we handle food. Today is also the day we bring tools from the cooking room, so every team is busy.
“Is anyone absent today?”
“None! There is none!”
“Very well!”
Tadashi checks the attendance with his loud voice. ...
2023-09-30 22:50:21 +0000 UTC View PostThe day before the cultural festival.
Today, the entire day's schedule is devoted to preparations for the cultural festival. It’s not only because there is a lot of preparation for the actual cultural festival, but also because the teachers think that the students won’t be able to concentrate on their class on the day before the school festival.
“Small props team, check all the equipment....
2023-09-30 22:48:12 +0000 UTC View PostPreparations for the cultural festival were well underway.
Tadashi's command was much more accurate than I expected, and Nakatani-san's support was also excellent. Thanks to that, our class was able to prepare smoothly without any quarrel.
“How much is left in the budget?”
“There’s no problem If we keep this up. There’s no need to worry.”

Last night, in the classroom I materialized, I kept praying that I would come up with a good idea, but I couldn't come up with one until the very end, and just went with the flow.
It's the cultural festival after all, so I wanted to think more about it, but... well, it can't be helped.

The sports festival is, to put it bluntly, an event where the sports clubs are the main event. For those in the cultural club who don't do much exercise on a daily basis as their club activities, or for those who go home quickly after school, the sports festival is an event that they don’t need to make a fuss about when it ends.
So, wh...

One night, Hiuri asked me such a question while drinking a smoothie.
The smoothie I prepared today is a fruit-based smoothie packed with as many sweet things as possible. Hiuri likes it, but it's a little too sweet for me.
“My name’s origin?”
“Yes.”
It's unclear what made her suddenly want to ask such a thing, but I te...

“So true. I enjoyed it too.”
In the dream.
Hiuri and I are talking in my seat in my classroom, inside the school building that I recreated based on my memories.
During the sports festival, the only times I had any interaction with Hiuri were lunch and the scavenger race.
I cheered for both Tadashi and Hiuri in the relay, but in the end...

A businesslike broadcast echoes throughout the field. Being told this would probably be very mentally damaging.
The current event is the long distance running. The one running right now is a boy, just one of them, and the whole group is cheering on him as he is unable to reach the goal.
“I wouldn’t want that—. I wonder why they say things like th...

In the blink of an eye, the day of the sports festival arrived.
I was only a bystander, a minor player so to speak, but I remember that the people in the sports club were practicing as if they were condensing their youth.
In reality, there was only about two weeks between the start of the second term and the sports festival. Even in that short period of time, the spo...

“Hi... Sakura-san, what's wrong?”
During practice, Hiuri suddenly spoke to me.
Currently, we are practicing on the field separated by school year. In addition to Hiuri's class, another group from a class further back is also practicing in the same place.
The purpose is to practice for the inter-grade relay race and others. In order to create the ...
Practice for the sports festival has begun.
However, there are no group performances or cheering competitions in this high school, so we only need to practice for events in which we will participate.
Perhaps because of that, there isn't that much practice time for the sports festival at this high school.

In other words, there will be boys who want to ...

“No, no, if it’s just something like this, I can make it just by imagining it.”
Since summer was about to end, we decided to go in the pool inside the dream. It's a huge pool that can't be compared to public pools.

Hiuri said that after taking a break at the cafe.
The arcade was a new place for Hiuri. The reason was that it was a difficult place for her to enter alone.
Therefore, with me here, she can enter places that are difficult to enter alone.
