Hanayui no Shou 26-1E

A weird promise - 1

[Tamako's room]

Tam: Huh? You're giving this honetsukidori to Tama? Suzume, you sure?

Suz: Of course, of course. I bought it just for you, Tamako-san.

Tam: Thanks, my kindred spirit!

Suz: Now, would you listen to a request of mine?

Tam: Sure thing, say whatever you want!

[Chikage's room]

Chi: Huh? This brand-new game is for me? I'm not sure if it's okay to accept this.

Suz: Of course it is! The game wants nothing more than to be played by you, Chikage-san!

Chi: Y-You think? I'll accept it then. Sorry for the trouble...

Suz: Oh no, no need! Although... I have a little request to make...

Chi: Request? What exactly?

[Sanshuu Middle - hallway]

Yuu: Eeh!? This bouquet is for me!? Thanks, Suzume-chan!

Suz: Well, there's nobody flowers suit as much as you, Yuuna-san. Lovely to the max!

Yuu: Ehehe, that's kind of embarrassing to hear. Thanks a lot!

Suz: Eheheh... Also, I have a request to make...

Yuu: Yeah, sure! Ask whatever you want!

[Hero Club room]

Yum: Suzume-san, we have heard everything. How can you do something so unsightly and shameful?

Meb: Is it true you're going around asking the club members to protect you in battle?

Suz: Sure am. I mean, you two don't pay me any attention once we're in the Jukai.

Shi: I think they do...

Suz: No they don't. So I decided to ask other people. Smart of me, right?

Yum: Even resorting to bribery... Have you no shame?

Meb: Suzume... You have the power to fight too. You understand that much, don't you?

Suz: I'm doing that exactly because I understand just how weak and powerless I am!

Aya: Did you really give presents to everyone?

Suz: Yep! Every single one, without fail!

Yum: With you acting like this, they might assume the rest of us are a bunch of cowards too!

Suz: Hmph, whatever. I'm the weakest person in the world. My life'd be in danger without anyone protecting me.

Meb: *sigh*
