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…-

The day after Haruto and the others had talked about the mixed relay, they gathered after school on the school grounds to practice. "Feels great to go all out in a sprint again," Tomoya said, wiping the sweat lightly forming on his forehead with his arm after finishing his 100-meter dash. Haruto, who had already run his own 100 meters, replied, "With your athletic ability, isn't it a waste for you to be in the go-home club?" "I could say the same about you," Tomoya shot back, giving…-

After finishing the discussion about the mixed relay for the sports festival, Haruto headed straight to the Dōjima Dōjō from school. "Thank you for your guidance!" Bowing as he greeted them, Haruto quickly changed into his training uniform. Because the discussion had taken place after school, he arrived at the dōjō later than usual, barely making it in time for the start of practice. As Haruto hurriedly changed, Ishikura, who was already dressed in his uniform, came over to him. "Hey,…-

After school, classmates began leaving the classroom one by one, either heading to their club activities or going home. In one corner of the gradually emptying classroom, Haruto, Ayaka, Tomoya, and Saki were gathered around a desk, discussing something. “So, shall we decide the running order for now?” Haruto looked at Ayaka and the others gathered at his desk as he spoke. “Yeah. But it’s a no-brainer that you’ll be the anchor, Haru. You’re the fastest among us.” “Agreed~…-

Author's Notes: Lately, I’ve been feeling under the weather, especially with some intense headaches, and I’ve been having a hard time organizing my thoughts properly for the main story… So I’m really sorry, but for this time, please forgive me for writing an extra chapter that I just went with the flow on, without using my head too much. I do plan to update the main story sometime next week. (Maybe it’s because Shizuku is too tricky, and trying to tie her story together is giving me a…-

"Alright, next up, we’ll decide on the members for the class’s mixed gender relay race at the sports festival," the physical education committee member announced while scanning the classroom. The last lesson on Monday is the long homeroom, and today, they are discussing the upcoming sports festival. The sports festival at the high school where Haruto and his friends attend is a class competition format. Each event has assigned points, and the ranking in each event affects the score. The…-

Saki and Shizuku arrived at the rooftop and sat side by side on a bench near the fence. "Phew, it's actually pretty hot when you're directly under the sun," Saki said, shading her eyes with one hand as she looked up at the sky. Beside her, Shizuku squinted slightly against the sunlight, turning her expressionless gaze toward Saki. "This warmth in my body is the result of my growing emotions for you, Saki-senpai." "Yeah, yeah, an adventure, an adventure," Saki replied dismissively, opening the…-
