(Crap… I can’t think of any idol I’m close to…)
(I had a bad feeling about this… I shouldn’t have accepted that magazine interview so thoughtlessly.)
(I don’t think it’s too late to reject the offer if I ask the agency to do it for me, but… I shouldn’t do that, should I…)
(I don’t want there to be complications between our agency and the client, all because of me…)
(But being close to someone isn’t the same as just knowing them, right? It’s practically the same level as “friends”…)
(And it’s hard to tell if it’s only me who considers them a friend… What if they think I’m being rude for writing them down as one…?)
(Ahhhh… Just thinking about it makes me wanna die…)
(Maybe I should go for the safe answer and say Tetora-kun or Shinobu-kun… But if I write someone from Ryuseitai, it’ll basically sound like I’m saying I don’t have any friends…)
(Urghh… Why do I have to write about my relationships, anyway? What does anyone get out of knowing that…)
Yoohoo, Midori-kun~♪ Why’re you holding your head?
…Must be nice, Hinata-kun. I bet you have loads of friends.
Um, what’re you on about?
I’ve got a job related to an interview project, but I have to answer this survey first.
And they dropped a really hard question in there, asking me which idols I’m close to…
I don’t have anyone like that… Ahh, this is so depressing. Maybe I’ll just leave it blank…
Oh, I get it now~ If you’re that unsure, then how about writing my name?
Um, no, you’re just somebody I know…
Oh c’mon now! I think of you as a friend, y’know~? ♪
What’s the difference between a friend and an acquaintance to you? What do I gotta do to be your friend, huh~?
Uurgh, don’t get so close… Um, let’s see…
I guess I’d consider someone I hang out with on my free days a friend…
Got it! Then let’s find the time to hang out together~♪
E-Ehhh…?
Location: Seisoukan Dorm Courtyard
On a day off
(I ended up cracking under pressure…)
(We didn’t even decide what to do together… What’s he planning?)
Heeey, sorry to keep you waiting, Midori-kun~
Ah, Hinata-kun… and—
HaHa~♪ Good morning, Mido-chan! Sora will greet when he meets someone in the morning~♪
Me too~! ‘Morning, Midori-chan!
U-um. G’morning…?
Yesterday, I talked to Mitsuru-kun and Sora-kun about our plans today when we were eating lunch in the cafeteria.
They both had a free day too, so I invited them to hang. The more the merrier, after all~♪
Sora wanted to play with Mido-chan! Sora is very excited~♪
That’s appreciated…
(Harukawa-kun and Tenma-kun are the good, friendly type, so I know there’s no reason to be so stiff, but…)
(Those three are way better at socializing than I am… I feel like I’m out of place here…)
Midori-chan, what’s wrong? You don’t wanna play with me?
N-no… That’s not…
Really!? Yay! I already thought up what we could play together!
Let’s start with a race! Time to dash dash dash~☆
HiHi~♪ Sora’s going to chase after Mitsu-chan~♪
Isn’t this just running around…?
It’s gonna be good exercise for us. Let’s run too, Midori-kun!
Ehhh? Are you for real?
‘Course I am! I promised we’d hang out today, didn’t I?
Let’s move our bodies and laugh until we can’t anymore! Like friends, yeah? ♪
I-I can’t move anymore…
Ahaha, take a rest~♪ You did your best to keep up with Mitsuru-kun and Sora-kun, huh~ Good job, good job~♪
No, that’s not it… I just didn’t wanna disappoint them when they came here just for me…
Ohh~ You’re so kind, Midori-kun.
So? Did you have fun?
I did, but I’d only wanna do this once in a while… I prefer taking it easy in my room on holidays.
(I was dragged into other games too, like tag and hide-and-seek, but…)
(I didn’t hate it. Even though I’m so exhausted now…)
(Maybe the reason I wouldn’t mind hanging out again… is because I see them as friends?)
Hey, about the survey I have to do… Could I write your name down for the “which idols are you close to” question, Hinata-kun…?
Tenma-kun and Harukawa-kun, too… It’s alright if you don’t want me to, though…
Sora would never mind! Sora and Mido-chan are friends~♪
Me too! I wanna get closer and closer to you, so let’s hang out again!
Ahaha, then how about we hang out next week, too? ♪ ‘Cause we’re all friends here~
Next week? Urghh, I just said I’d rather do this once in a while…
(Oh yeah, wasn’t there another question that asked what I do on my free days…? I wrote down a safe answer like reading manga and stuff, but—)
(I’ll write down what happened today instead. ‘Cause we’re bound to hang out together again, anyway…♪)
