Ishitsumugi no Shou 19-3N

Understanding school events - 3

[Tourist spot]

Fuu: Aah, that was delicious! Udon away from your hometown isn't bad either.

Yum: I believe we are free to go shopping if we have time remaining after the lunch break.

Chi: That store has some cute keyholders, they caught my eye earlier.

Fuu: Huh. If they have different kinds, maybe I should get myself and Itsuki a matching pair.

Chi: Matching... I-I should get Takashima-san too... Ah, but... Maybe that'd be invading her space too much...?

Nat: Are the keyholders that big?

Fuu: That's not what she means. N-Natsume... are you buying too? Same as Itsuki.

Nat: Let's see... But I don't have a key...

Fuu: R-Right... Well, I guess you don't need it! Ahaha... ha.

Chi: ...Miroku-san, want to come check out souvenirs with me?

Yum: Eh, Chikage-san, are you inviting me!? Gladly. With not a moment of hesitation!

Chi: Let's go then. Inubouzaki-san, Kohagura-san, see you later.

Nat/Fuu: Ah... Mhm.

[Shopping mall]

Yum: Well, Chikage-san. Now that you have me, I shall make sure to carefully pick out only the most wonderful of souvenirs!

Chi: I don't actually care about that. I just... Did them a favour.

Yum: Huh? Them? Uh... Whom?

Chi: You're... surprisingly dense, huh.

[Beach]

Fuu: We went on an after-meal stroll but ended up, as always, at the sea...

Nat: Do you... hate the sea?

Fuu: N-No I don't hate it! If I had to say... I l-like it...

Nat: Right... Good to hear...

Fuu: Y-Yeah...

Nat: ...

Fuu: ...W-Why'd you go silent?

Nat: Eh... What about you, Fuu?

Fuu: I... Uh.

Nat: ...

Fuu: Ah... W-What do I do... When Itsuki was around I could talk just fine, but when I think about it...

Fuu: You could count the amount of times I've talked to Natsume alone on your fingers! A topic... I need a topic...

Nat: ...What do I do? I need to say something... Usually Fuu's the one talking..

Nat: But if I don't... come up with a good topic every now and then, she'll get bored...

Nat/Fuu: ...Y-You know!?

Fuu: W-What!?

Nat: Uh, well... Eh... You know... W-Want to swim?

Fuu: Urg... Aaaaagh! IIIII'll swim!
