>>THWOMP

>What are you giving her flowers for, you bastard!?
>Eh!?

p2-3
>>Oh, butterfly, flying from flower to flower,
>>please stop by these lovers
>>and bloom their flowers of love...!!

p4
>EEEEEEEEEH!?

>EEEEEEH!?
>A-
>Are you okay, Prince!?

>That was mean, Kase-san!!

p5
>Hurling your bag of all things!
>What if you hurt the Prince!?
>H-He's from TV, y'know!?
>Waaah~
>Who's the mean one here!?

>I told you not to meet with that guy...
>and yet you were riding in his car?
>Isn't that pretty mean!?

>Eh? Car!?
>...N-
>No, you've got the wrong idea, Kase-san!

>I didn't ride in his car!
>I literally just ran into him just now...
>Liar!
>Ow ow ow...

p6
>>thwip

>Yamada.
>Do you hate being with me?

>You'd prefer someone who understands gardening stuff, right?
>And you'd probably prefer a guy too...

>Sorry, Yui-chan.

p7
>Who's this girl?
>A friend of yours, Yui-chan?

>Yu-

>Yui-chaaan~~!?
>Huh!?
>Why are you using her first name...!?

>Kase-san!

p8
>I-
>I'm sorry, Prince! Um...
>>whoosh
>>thwip

>This person is my girlfriend!

p9
>Girl-...

>Hah

>Ah!
>>zoom
>Get in the car, you two!

>>vroom
>That was quite a shock.

>>giggle
>Could you maybe not have a lovers' spat in front of the station?

p10
>Sorry that it's so cramped in here.

>What's with the inside of this car?
>Densuke-sensei always gives me his extra decorative plants.

>Every time, I find myself unable to refuse and take them home with me, but it was starting to get a bit too much,
>so I was thinking of sharing them with someone else.
>My poor apartment~
>It's turning into a jungle.
>Can't you just turn him down?

>I can't do that.
>They're Densuke-sensei's plants, after all.

p11
>I know what you mean!
>Right~?

>I was hoping there'd be someone who could take proper care of them.

>And when I saw you at the college, you were the number one candidate, Yui-chan.
>I've been to all kinds of famous gardens and met many gardeners on my show,
>but not even the pros were as thoughtful as you are.

>You know about "green fingers", right?
>Fufu
>They're the mark of a genius, I guess?
>I can tell when people have those.

>Could you stop calling her Yui-chan?
>Eh? What's her surname?
>Yamada.

p12
>Hey, you.

>What are you so unhappy about?
>You've got a girlfriend who loves you back, don't you?

>Even when I offered her a ride home, Yui-chan said she'd take the bus to the station.
>That's where I brought her the flowers.

>She's a really good girlfriend.

>Being jealous is fine and all, but...

p13
>what's the point in spending all the time you're together thinking about how you're gonna fall apart?
>Is there anyone who only thinks about a flower wilting
>while it's still blooming beautifully?

>Why miss out on watching that flower in bloom
>when you've put so much effort into growing it?
>It feels like a waste.

>Don't you realise
>that you've got a flower that's in bloom too?

p14
>Thank you very much! I'll take good care of them!
>...

>I'm so glad you could accept two people's worth<3
>Please don't come to this apartment again.
>So untrusting.

>Ah.
>Oh yeah. Here.
>My business card and...

>one for my family's store.
>Give us a call if you need anything<3
>?

>>Sekkaen
>>Greenery Advisor
>>Seki Tomoharu
>S-...
>Sekkaen!?
>Eeeh!?
>What?
>It's the biggest gardening shop in Kansai!

p15
>The noble son
>of the gardening world.
>>shine~
>Haha~
>He's on another level~
>I'm not worthy~
>>Golden shovel

>Later then.
>Do come see my talkshow at the festival.
>Sure!

>>beep beep
>Wait!

>>bow

p16
>I'm sorry for hitting you with my backpack!

>The athletic type...

>It's fine, it's fine.
>>pat pat
>I've got a pretty sturdy face.
>Ahaha

>More importantly, you get along with Yui-chan, okay?

>>vroom

p17
>Phwah

>Haaaaaah~
>>floop

>That was so nerve-wracking~~!

>??
>Why?

>I was with the Flowerbed Prince that whole time!
>It was like a dream!
>I don't even remember anything from after you hit him with your bag, Kase-san!

>?
>That's what that was about?
>That's what that was about!
>Aah~ I was so nervous~~~
>Aaah~~~

p18
>>bonk

>I'm sorry.
>But I was happy

>that you called me your "girlfriend", Yamada.
>Do you remember that at least?

p19
>Yeah.
>I remember...
>That's what I'm always calling you
>in my heart...

>Wah!
>Now that they're in my room, they're pretty huge~

>I'll do my best to raise them!
>Moth orchids are usually really expensive!
>Heh~
>Is that so?

>By the way, Kase-san.

p20
>Why were you at the station today?
>Did you need anything?

>Eh?
>>badum...
>No.

>Really?

>Well...
>...How should I put it.
>My times have been slipping since I've been so out of whack lately...
>Eh!?
>No way~

p21
>Can that even happen to you, Kase-san!?
>It can!
>I've had plenty of slumps!

>Heh~
>Heh~
>Heh~

>What's with you? I'm no superwoman, y'know?
>The coach has given me an earful plenty of times!

>Eh? What!?
>Shh! Be quiet!

p22
>I'm giving your legs the "there there" treatment!

>Huh?
>There there?

>This usually helps when I have a tummyache.
>They're not aching or anything, though.

>>Bam
>Don't worry!
>I've got "green fingers", y'know?
>I can even cure slumps!
>That's what the Prince said!

>What are "green fingers" anyway?
>They're magic fingers that people who are good at raising plantlife have!
>And what's that got to do with me?

p23
>...

>Ah,
>but...

>Maybe I can let you try it...

>Let's do it! Let's do it!
>You'll feel better in no time!

>I'll put on some massage cream~

>There there.

p24
>>rub rub
>There there.
>You'll be just fine, Kase-san~
>>giggle

>Ahahaha
>That tickles!

>There there.
>There there.
>>rub rub
>>giggle

>Go far~
>Go far~
>>rub rub
>Kase-san's legs~
>>grope grope

>Kase-san...

p25
>I won't ever go out with a boy who understands garden stuff.

>I'm sure we would just get into fights.
>We'd make a big deal out of just liking different kinds of flowers.
>When it comes to gardening, I consider even the Prince as more of a rival than anything else.
>Eh?

>I don't know anything about track and field either,
>but I can support you like this.

p26
>Do your best, Kase-san!
>I know you'll be fine.
>You've got me with you, after all!

>Is there anyone who only thinks about a flower wilting
>while it's still in bloom?
>He's right.

>>stroke...

p27
>>bonk

>Could you do it a little more,
>Yui?
>Those "green fingers" feel kinda nice.
>>giggle

>Right!?

p28
>Eh? Fukami-san has a cold?
>You should've said so sooner!

>If you're gonna buy her something, get her jelly or yoghurt!
>Or maybe some fruit!
>Something that goes down easy!
>>nod nod

>Later!
>Come to the festival, okay!?
>Later~

>Oh crap!
>Look at the time!
>It felt like my legs had become really light.
