Ramona
Everyone was working so hard, I couldn't let myself fall behind.
Ramona
But Koyomi contributed a lot to the class too, you know?
Koyomi
...I couldn't ignore Ramona-san for Gingaza's sake. You were trying to do everything from chores to everything else.
Ramona
Hahaha. So you were watching me carefully?
Ramona
I appreciated that. For example-
Ramona
...Haah, shopping is fine, but these are all items that can only be found at specialty stores.
Ramona
Hmm, which route would be the shortest to get everything...
Koyomi
I'll go too.
Koyomi
Wouldn't it be faster if we split up?
Ramona
Oh! Thank you, Koyomi!
Ramona
Then could you handle the paints and art supplies? I'll give you a list.
Koyomi
Really, third year students' activities should be kept within reasonable limits, but you're pushing yourself too hard.
Koyomi
Even if life experience becomes nourishment for actors, it's pointless if your main occupation suffers.
Ramona
There's no problem so far, but thank you for worrying about me.
Koyomi
...Well then, I'll be going.
Ramona
Hehe, Koyomi is so awkward.
Lilja
Ramo, what are you doing?
Ramona
Ah, I'm doing research for the cultural festival. I'm struggling with the pricing for our planetarium.
Ramona
I want to give back to everyone who worked hard. To increase sales, should I set the price low so more customers will come...
Lilja
Ramo, you sound like Xue.
Ramona
If I set the price too low, it might make what we created seem less valuable. It's a dilemma.
Koyomi
You don't need to take on everything yourself.
Koyomi
Why don't you consult with the festival committee or someone who has experience from last year?
Ramona
Ah, that's a good point. Thanks for the advice, Koyomi.
Ramona
...So during the cultural festival preparations, she was always wandering around me. She helped me whenever something came up.
Hikari
Wow, so Koyomi-san was excited about the cultural festival too! That's unexpected!
Koyomi
As I've said many times already.
Koyomi
I was merely cooperating with Ramona-san for Gingaza's sake.
Koyomi
...Besides, the other classmates seemed hesitant to ask me for help.
Ramona
That's why I asked you to help with the decorations.
Ramona
The stars Koyomi cut out of cardboard looked like starfish in the sea...they were so earnest and adorable.
Koyomi
You were watching!?
Koyomi
Please don't say such things in front of everyone...
Lilja
Indeed, the decorations had character and were beautiful. So Koyomi made some of those.
Ramona
Lilja had her duties as part of the beautification committee. Koyomi actively approached our classmates and worked diligently.
Koyomi
T-That was just how it ended up.
Koyomi
It all started because you took on the responsibility.
Xue
Well, I understand the feeling of getting swept along. Especially with Germany around.
Hikari
Xue worked really hard for us too!
Hikari
But hearing all this makes me wish I could have seen it even more. The third years are graduating, so this was the last cultural festival with Ramo-san and the others.
Ramona
Hehe, then why don't we go see a planetarium on our next day off?
Hikari
That sounds great! Nice one, Ramo-san!
Lilja
How lovely. I want to go too.
Xue
If Germany is treating, I might join. Depending on my schedule.
Ramona
Of course Koyomi will come too.
Koyomi
Haah.
Koyomi
You're free to spend your days off as you wish, but in exchange, don't slack off during rehearsals.
Ramona
If you're not refusing, can I take that as a yes?
Koyomi
...I'm busy too. It depends on my schedule.
Koyomi
(Really, when talking with this person, there are times when I just get swept along.)
