TL: NaCl PR: shion, Ikea And now, in the present. Hayato stood before a large building in the city, hours away from the mountainous countryside. “It’s massive…” He sighed as he looked at the high school in front of him. Compared to his old, rundown, leaky, one-story wooden structure school in the countryside, the three-story, pristine and white reinforced concrete building in front of him was significantly larger and cleaner, almost making his head spin. In a slight act of…

TL: NaCl PR: shion “Gaaah! I overslept!” In the early morning, Himeko’s piercing scream, far from the tranquility one might expect at this time of day, echoed throughout the Kirishima household. Hayato, hearing her voice, muttered, “Here we go again…” while flipping eggs skillfully in a rectangular rolled omelet pan. : Pans designed for tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelet). He was making rolled omelets with dashi, one of Hayato’s specialties, which paired well with the…

TL: NaCl PR: shion The Kirishima family had just moved recently. They had already unpacked essential items such as tableware, summer clothes, stationery, and textbooks, but there were still many boxes left unopened. In Hayato’s room, several cardboard boxes still remained and formed a small mountain. “Well, time to get to work.” After coming home from school, Hayato quickly changed his clothes and immersed himself in the task of unpacking and sorting. He knew he’d be occupied with…

TL: NaCl PR: shion Hayato, who had just transferred, still had many things he wasn’t used to. Unlike in Tsukinose’s countryside, he passed by no tractors on the way to school, nor did any deer or wild boars enter into the schoolyard. Even the fact that the classrooms were full was something he needed to get accustomed to. This was also true for physical education class. “The ball went that way!” “No way, can you make it in time from there!?” “You’re always so easy to…

After Shizuku-chan’s mysterious team introduction, we parted ways with her and began practicing baton passes. The practice routine was led and planned by Saki, who had experience in track and field. To start with, we lined up in a single file at short intervals and repeatedly passed the baton in rhythm. The goal was to get our bodies used to the underhand pass motion. After completing the full routine and taking a short break, I watched Shizuku-chan and her group practice. She happened to be…

After parting ways with Shizuku, Haruto walked alone through a residential neighborhood. The sky, dyed red by the setting sun, gradually darkened as night began to fall. He gazed down at the faintly illuminated, blurred outline of his shadow as he slowly made his way to the Tōjō household. "Shizuku-chan Mk2, huh... Sounds just like her..." Haruto rubbed his stomach with his right hand. The aftershock of the “Shizuku Explosion” still lingered there as a dull ache. Having lost both his…

"Where did Ayaka and Shizuku go?" At the student entrance, Haruto looked around for the two of them. But the entrance hall only had a few students heading home—there was no sign of Ayaka or Shizuku. Suddenly, Ayaka had said it would be better if she didn't go to the amusement park on Sunday. Upon hearing that, Shizuku grabbed her arm and briskly led her away, telling her they needed to talk. The look on Shizuku’s back said, "Don’t follow us," loud and clear, and Haruto couldn’t bring…

As I carried the dinner dishes to the kitchen, I thanked Kiyoko-san for preparing such a delicious meal. "Kiyoko-san, today's dinner was really delicious." "I'm glad it suited your taste." Tonight’s dinner was summer vegetable tempura. Everything Kiyoko-san fried was exceptional. The batter on the eggplant was crispy on the outside but juicy inside, and the okra tempura was super tasty too. The shrimp was plump and crispy, and the whiting was light and fluffy. Next time, I’ve got to…

Lately, Haruto had been spending most of his lunchtimes with Ayaka, Tomoya, Saki, and now Shizuku, making it a group of five. Today as well, under the clear blue sky during lunch break, they all sat at a table-bench in the courtyard, enjoying their packed lunches. "Now then, everyone, let’s hold a meeting about our trip to the amusement park this Sunday." Shizuku made this bold announcement after stuffing a dumpling from her lunch into her mouth. Haruto glanced at her lunch and…
