>It's been half a year since I first met Eli.

>Sonoda-san!

>Good morning.
>Morning...

>Umi~
>About this part...

>Thinking back on it, we've spent a lot of time together.

p3
>It feels like we've been spending even more time together as of late.

>What's that all about, Honoka?

>Even if you ask me that...


p4
>Hah~

>Harasho~

>They're really close!
>It was a mistake to ask you guys...

>Now that you mention it,
>Umi-chan smells pretty nice.

p5
>It's the scent of tatami and incense!
>If you were to ask me, Umi smells really calming.
>It's kinda like the smell you get at your grandma's house.
>Umi's house is pretty old, after all.

>My house is pretty old too!
>Does that mean I smell good like Umi-chan!?

>You smell like red bean paste -nya.
>Why~?

p6
>...Umi.
>You can consult us anytime.
>?

>I don't have much time right now
>but I'll take you up on that when I can.

>Hey, Nico.
>I've been listening to you for a while now but...

>I'm not gonna give up this seat.
>I don't want it!

>Enough with the sniffing, you guys!
>Aaaah
>Did you eat miso soup?

p7
>Ah
>Welcome back.

>I'm... home...?

>Um...
>Why did you get here before me?
>I thought you went to get a change of clothes...
>Already done.
>On days that Alisa went to have a sleepover with Yukiho,
>Eli would come by to my house more often.

p8
>Umi-san.
>Head on upstairs.

>We're having Russian for dinner tonight.

>What are we doing tonight, Eli-san?
>How about borsch?
>The fact she managed to become close with my mother at some point
>made me half-surprised, half-happy,

>and a little bit irritated.

p9
>You too, Umi?

>You're gonna help too, right?

>...Sure.

>Could you take care of the pelmeni? [TN: Russian meat dumplings]

p11
>Mmm

>Umi.
>We should get to bed soon.

>...I guess we should.

p12
>I'm turning the light off.

p13
>Good night.

p14
>Good night.

>I wonder when it was that I started spending more time with Eli.

>I wonder when it was that Eli started touching me.

>I wonder when it was that I...

p19
>Hey, Umi.
>I'm not asleep, you know.

>This is... um...
>Keep still.

p20
>Ah!
>Noo...

>Umi...
>~!

p21
>Hah...
>Hah...

>My body is hot.
>My chest hurts.

>But I don't hate it.

>I've thought about putting these feelings into words

>but I've never been able to write them down.

>After all, beyond that is...

>...Do it.

p22
>Could you
>make love to me?

p23
>Eli
>Can I

p26

>Hah

p27
