p4
>Sorry, Nico.

p5
>Mama has to head back to work soon.

>I see. Do your best!

>Hey, Nicocchi.

p6
>Do you want to come over to my place in a little bit?

>Sure.

>Oh yeah, your parents are...
>No...
>I guess they're not coming.

p7
>I see...
>I can't stay out too late since I need to sort out the kids' dinner.
>That's fine.

>I understand.

>Come to think of it...

p8
>This might be the first time that it's just the two of us at Nozomi's place...

p9
>It's been a while since I've been to your place, Nozomi
>Sure has~ Well, make yourself at home

p10
>Embarrassed even though she's the one who invited her.

>I know! I'll make us some tea.
>Wai-

p11
>Nozomi!

>Um...

>I came over for "that", didn't I?

p12
>Same here.

p13
>Mm

>What the heck!?

>My heart's already pounding from just a kiss, so maybe we're not ready to go any further yet.

>I guess so...

>But I'm sure...

p14
>that if we have lots of kisses, we'll eventually stop being embarrassed from just kissing.

>We'll get used to it?

>Yeah.

>Something like that, huh?
>Something like that

p15
>It somewhat feels like just a little bit but...

>All these things are changing a little at a time.
>Even though it's a natural thing, to think it would be this sad too.

p16
>I wonder why?

>Hah...
>I'm home.

p17
>Welcome back, Nicocchi.

>Man, I'm tired.
>Good work today.

>Is that the report that's due this week?

>Yep. Have you made any progress on yours, Nicocchi?

>You should know all to well that I haven't.

p18
>Kya

>Since it's come to this, Nozomi, I'll have to get in your way too.

>Geez...

p19
>Ah

>Hey, Nozomi.

>Back then, you were afraid that we'd change but
>I think I'm glad that we did.

p20
>And from now onwards...

>Of course, the one thing that hasn't changed is how good Nozomi's boobs feel...
>So soft...
>?

p22
>How about the three of us have a graduation celebration party?

>Graduation celebration party?

>I mean, we normally hang out as a group of nine, right?
>We haven't had a chance for just us seniors to hang out!

>Right?
>Please<3

>You can't really turn down that smiling face. [different endings for their speech style, but I don't think it matters in English]

p23
>Cheers

>It's too bad Elichi couldn't join us.
>Eh!? Grandma's come home!?
>So she said.
>>in Nozomi's place.

>Hm
>Yeah...

>Huh~?

p24
>Could it be, Nicocchi,
>that you were thinking that it's lucky

>that it's now the two of us?

p25
>Hya!
>Don't be stupid!

>Stop saying such things.
>It's disgraceful!!

>Besides, it's the total opposite!
>I was just thinking it was unfortunate that it's not an even threesome, that's all!

p26
>You're right!

>So anyway, about this party...
>I made a decent amount but... will this be enough?
>No no! This is more than enough already!

>Nicocchi is super cute in an apron!
>Of course I am!
>Well then! Let's eat!

p27
>It's...
>DELICIOUUUUUUS!

p28
>You don't need to make that much of a reaction...
>But it really is delicious!

>Pfft
>Thanks

>But doesn't it seem like I haven't done anything...?
>You brought the drinks, didn't you?

>I want to repay you somehow, Nicocchi!
>No, it's fine.
>I'll do whatever you ask!

p29
>You'll really do anything?
>That's right!

>I-In that case...
>There is something I wanted to try but...!

>It's fine.
>It's a small price to pay to taste such delicious cooking!

p30
>I did say anything but...
>Something like this is a little embarrassing...
>If you're gonna do it anyway, it may as well be something cute, right?

>What?

>I've always wanted to see a naked apron in real life at least once~
>But still...

p31
>What's with this AMAZING VIEW!

>N-Nicocchi?

>If you're going to do it...
>then hurry up...

>Bad, Nico!
>I got a little fascinated!
>Okay, here I go!

p32
>Hya!

>What's this mysterious
>sensation!

p33
>EH!?
>Nicocchi, you said you'd only touch them once, right?
>Um... Nicocchi, maybe you should...
>Don't just tease the tips...

>Hey, Nicocchi...
>What should I do...? I'm losing my strength...
>Hah
>Ahn
>Hah
>Ah

p34
>Nicocchi!

>Sorry... I was having so much fun that I just...
>G-Geez...

>Well, I'll forgive you.
>It felt good for me too...

p35
>Okay! That's everything I wanted to do!
>What the heck~

>Consider that a taste of your own medicine!
>Sorry~
>I guess now I know how Nicocchi feels...

>But it feels sad knowing I won't be touched over my uniform like that again~
>What are you even saying?

>But y'know
>This year went by fast...

>You sure you're not glorifying your memories?
>Huh?
>What are you trying to say?
>I didn't mean it in a bad way.

p36
>I think our memories were already way too fun even without glorifying them.

>Cos, y'know...
>the countless days I've spent with everyone
>have been more fun than I could possibly imagine.

>Same here.

>Wait, you don't have to cry about that!
>You're crying too, Nicocchi!

>We need to greet everyone with smiling faces at our graduation ceremony tomorrow

p37
>so let's empty out all of our tears, okay?

>Sorry~ I rushed to get my errands at home finished so I could come over.
>...wait, huh?

>What's going on here!?
>Waaaaah
>Harasho

p38
>Our three years of high school
>wasn't all spending every day just having fun.
>Your hair is so cute, Nozomi-chan!

>Really? Thank you!
>Did you do it yourself?
>No, I didn't.
>However,
>I've made so many important friends and am surrounded by the people I love.

p39
>And I've found someone important to me.
>I've been blessed with happiness.

p40
>You're got real pretty hair, Nozomi.

>It's not that great!
>Your hair is much prettier, Nicocchi!
>>Post-Washiwashi

>Hey! Do you have some time before the ceremony tomorrow?
>Eh? I think so, but why?

>Nico's gonna inject you with some very special spiritual power!
