>That's amazing!!

>Yep.
>I got taller during summer vacation alone!

>Amazing!
>Yep.
>I'm in my growing period.

>From now I'll keep growing taller and taller and taller.
>And taller!
>Amazing!!
>I'm in my growing period
>Hana
>If you praise her too much, something besides her height is gonna grow.

>If I grew 2cm within a month...

>That means I'll grow another 14cm until the first year is over.
>Wow.

>And at the end of the second year, I'll be another 24cm taller.
>And then...

>I'll be two meters tall by graduation.
>Two meters!
>Amazing!
>Wow.
>Must be hard on your neck.


p97
>A two meter tall Kamuri-chan, huh...

>Wah~

>Kamuri-chan, want some candy?
>Sure.

>How cute...
>That's cute?

>But still, it's impressive that you managed to grow 2cm within a month.
>Yep.
>I grew about this much last summer too.

>Eh?
>So in other words, the only time you grow taller is during summer vacation...?

>~~~~
>Is the shackles of school somehow hindering her growth?
>Awawa! I'm sorry, Kamuri-chan!

>Aaaaah! Kamuri-chan's writing about this in her student notebook!!
>Please reconsider, Kamuri-chan!!!
>...

p98
>Gooooood morning!

>Just kidding~
>Wah!
>Stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid stupid banana
>Morning.
>You're lively this morning.
>Ehehe~ Well, we made plans to eat in the cafeteria, after all.
>I'm excited.

>Yeah.
>It's my first time in a cafeteria. I'm looking forward to it.
>Yep.

>I've checked the website for printable menus.
>You're certainly taking this seriously, Kamu-chan.

>Ladies' Set C, Wakame Ramen, Curry Katsudon, Leek Fried Chicken, Leaf Mustard Fried Rice, Soft-cooked Seafood Yakisoba, Milk Pudding and even more.
>This menu has quite the selection.

>So they have a Ladies' Set
>even though this is a girls' school.
>There's only about five male teachers here.
>Yep.

>Quite the tease, huh?
>Ah, but the neighborhood association president came to eat here.
>He had Ladies' Set A comes from.
>Oh?

>If male teachers request it, they have no reason to refuse.
>Despite how he looks, the neighborhood association president is a lady at heart.
>Eh?

p99
>Why is Andou-sensei nicknamed neighborhood association president?

>He gives off that kind of appearance, don't you think?
>Ah, I kinda understand.
>I get it, but to leave it as that?
>Didn't you just get the nickname "Hairpin", Eiko-chan?
>Who calls me that?

>Ah, speaking of which,
>earlier...

>Um, I've been curious for a while but...
>Tama-chan, could it be.
>You got fat.
>Gyaaaaa

>AAaaaaaargh! You're wrong!
>You got fat.
>Just a teeny weent bit!
>You got fat.

>It's just a little I got from a campaign of increased bargains during the end of summer!
>An increase in meat.
>Kya~ Eiko-chan! Shut this girl up!

>So, how much did you gain this time?
>This time?
>A-
>About this much...

p100
>Two kilos?
>Hiiiiiiiiii!
>Please don't say it out loud, Hana-chan!

>Awawawa, I'm sorry, Hana-chan!
>But it's quite the coincidence.
>Kamu grew two centimeters taller.

>My word!
>Kamu-chan grew 2cm, and I grew 2 mumblemumblemumble
>Then...

>That's good.
>It all balances out to zero.
>Yeah.
>If you're okay with that, Tamate-chan, then it's fine.

>Of course it's not fine!
>Woah! Really squishy.
>You shouldn't do that.

>It'll be a disaster if I can't fit into my winter uniform next month!
>I gotta get back to normal!
>I'm gonna exercise my butt off!

>Then how about some squats. They're easy to do.
>You'll build muscle too.
>from your flab.
>From your flab.
>I see.

>I wish I had hard abs like Sensei.
>Muscles sure are nice.
>Eiko-chan, how do you know the hardness of Sensei-san's skin?
>So fat turns into muscle, huh?

p101
>Yeah.
>You can easily do squats in your spare time.
>Practical and effective.
>Don't ignore me.

>It builds stamina too, so it's reccomended for you too, Hana.
>M-Me too.
>You're ignoring me, aren't you?

>Well, whatever.

>I'll give it a shot!
>I-I'll try it too!
>Do your best~
>Do your best~

>To distract me from the squatting, could you guys pass the time with some free talking or something?
>Sure.
>Leave it to us.

>Good afternoon~
>I'm Eiko.
>I'm Kamuri.
>What the heck?
>I don't need an introduction.
>Also, Eiko-chan, that's now how you use the "what the heck" line.

>Kamu.
>Has anything left an impression on you, lately?
>Yep.

>The bakery in front of the station.
>Their new cheese bread was delicious.

p102
>How does that work?
>The cheese in the dough melts.

>Moist and springy
>Moist and springy

>Also.

>Fluffy and sticky
>Fluffy and stick
>Eiko-chan!
>shut this girl up right now!

>Geez
>That kind of discussion is putting uneccessary pressure on my stomach.
>I thought it was good-natured...
>I'm sorry.
>aha
>Ahahahahahahahahahahaha

>How are you doing, Hana-chan?

>Eh? You're still on the first one...?
>This one's in worser shape.
