Haruto’s singing echoed throughout the karaoke room. Is this what people mean when they say their ears feel blessed? The enka song he was singing was a famous one—I’d heard it a few times on TV music programs. The lyrics portrayed a bittersweet yet fiery love story. When I imagined Haruto singing those lyrics as if they were directed at me, I felt a warmth bubbling up from deep within, an indescribable mix of emotions that made my heart race. I wished I could listen to his singing…-

After thoroughly teasing Haruto and Ayaka about Ryota’s “Wedding Fund Piggy Bank,” Tomoya and the others said their goodbyes to Ikue and Kiyoko before leaving. Since there was still time before dinner, Haruto and Ayaka returned to her room and decided to study until the meal was ready. "Ugh... that was so embarrassing..." As soon as they got back, Ayaka collapsed onto the table, burying her face in her arms with a loud sigh. "Ryota's piggy bank is probably going to be the topic of jokes…

Having greeted Ikue, Tomoya and the others headed straight to Ayaka's room. "Wow, I’d heard from Aizawa-san before coming here, but Ayaka’s house really is a mansion," Tomoya remarked. "I’m confident I could live in just the hallway of this house," Shizuku added. "Ah, I thought the same," Tomoya nodded in agreement, recalling the grandeur of the corridor stretching out from the entrance. As they climbed the stairs, Tomoya and Shizuku continued their banter, prompting Saki to speak up…

Shizuku proposed playing the King’s Game. In response, Ayaka frowned slightly. “Aren’t we here to study today, Shizuku-chan? Playing around too much isn’t good.” “Aya-senpai, efficient work is brought about by efficient breaks. Taking proper rests to recover focus helps studying go more smoothly.” “But... the King’s Game is a bit much...” Ayaka hesitated. “That game is the one where you have to obey the king’s orders, right?” “Exactly! …Oh, could it be,…

The study session at Ayaka’s house had turned into a lively gathering. To break the monotony, they started a game of King’s Orders, which brought unexpected energy to the room. At one point, Saki developed an odd condition—bursting into laughter every time she glanced at Tomoya's face—but overall, everyone seemed to be enjoying the game much more than anticipated. "Alright! I'm the King this time! Number 3, sing the chorus of a song you're confident in!" Tomoya declared…

The moment Ayaka invited Haruto to karaoke, the classroom buzzed with excitement. Noticing the commotion, Haruto briefly scanned the room, then responded with a cheerful smile. "Sure, let's all go to karaoke together." Despite her past trauma, which made Ayaka hesitant to reveal their relationship, she had taken the initiative to approach him. As her boyfriend, there was no way he could ignore her courage. Ayaka beamed at his agreement and returned to her desk, leaving Haruto to fend off a…

The end-of-summer vacation periodic exam. If I scored over 80 points in every subject, Haruto-kun promised me a reward. “Alright, I'll hand back your tests now. Come up when your name is called.” At the math teacher’s announcement, I clenched my hands tightly under the desk. I had studied diligently throughout summer vacation to ensure I earned that reward from Haruto-kun. So far, every test returned to me had been above 80 points. Now, as long as this math test was also over 80…

Saturday afternoon. Haruto and Ayaka were in her room, surrounded by reference books, engrossed in their studies for the upcoming test. The sound of their pens scratching against the paper echoed softly in Ayaka’s room, as both focused intensely on their work. Glancing up from her notebook, Ayaka checked the clock hanging on the wall. "They should be here soon, right?" "Probably. Tomoya messaged me earlier saying they’ve met up, so it won’t be long," Haruto replied, briefly checking…

On the way home from school. The residential streets had grown quieter compared to the height of summer, with the cicadas' cries beginning to subside. Haruto, Ayaka, and Shizuku walked side by side. "Hey, Ayaka-senpai? If you don’t proclaim your love for Haruto-senpai, I might just hug him again!" Walking on Haruto’s right, Shizuku teased Ayaka with an exaggerated gesture, pretending to wrap her arms around him. Ayaka, her ears still red from embarrassment, glared at Shizuku with teary eyes…

After leaving the school grounds and walking for a short while, Shizuku stepped ahead of Haruto and the others, then turned to face them. Her expression was one of triumphant satisfaction. "Well, Haru-senpai, how about my flawless plan?" With her hands on her hips, Shizuku puffed out her chest proudly. "I'm impressed. As expected of you, Shizuku." "Hmm, praise me more!" "Of course, oh great Shizuku-sama." Although her face remained expressionless, Shizuku's mood seemed noticeably elevated…
