“It’s Yuzu’s birthday,” you explain. “She’d understand if duty called, but I’d rather not ditch her, you know? Even if she has friends around, it wouldn’t be right.”
“No, no, I understand,” Miho replies. “I’m sure Azusa will be thrilled to come anyway, so no harm done.”
“Thanks,” you reply, getting a wink and a thumbs up.
“So, what did you get her anyway?” Miho’s question is punctuated by Hana firing the gun, seemingly just to cause chaos amongst the manouvering tanks.
“I got her a full set of gardening tools,” you reply.
“From the shop that supplies the agriculture department?” Hana asks. “How did you get them to sell to you?”
“I just explained the situation,” you reply. “They felt honour bound to help me out.”
“They don’t even sell to me,” Hana complains. “And I’m the Student Council President!”
“What can I say? I have a way with words,” you reply, getting some scattered laughs.
“Regardless, they sell good quality tools,” Hana says. “They will serve Koyama well.”
“Well, that’s the hope.”

“Happy Birthday,” you say as she squeaks in surprise. “Didn’t think I’d forget, did you?”
“I didn’t think you knew,” she admits. “But thank you anyway.”
Anzu gives you a wink and a thumbs up from behind Yuzu.
“Are you free in the evening?” You ask. “I don’t know what we can do at short notice, but we can do something.”
“Like what?”
