...Hm

You're late-...

...So you were with Rika... That's... Well... I suppose she'll be joining us...

I'm going to Hawaii for the end of the year, so- There was lots I had to look for-☆

The snow stopped too, so everything turned out alright! Let's head back to the office-☆

So then- Of course-♡

Right-!! So exciting-♡

Of course, that's a secret from my sister☆

? Why have you been staring at my face... Ah, was I talking too much? Sorry?

Ah... No, that's not it- Well, I was thinking 'She sure talks a lot', but...

You seem like you're really having fun... You have a truly pure way of talking, so... It gave me a lot to think about

I daresay there was a time when I too was like that... I was searching through my memories

However... I couldn't recall that 'boundary'

Perhaps it was a memory I wanted to erase... I wonder if people always reject that 'genuine' speech as foolish when they get older...

Huh, but there are great adults who are still genuine, right? Like P-kun, right?

Ufu~n♡ Well?

P-kun♡

You know, when I said 'I'm gonna wear a real daring swimsuit in Hawaii~☆', he was genuinely super happy to hear it!

Is that so...?

But anyway Asuka-chan, you haven't really gotten less genuine, or 'become a certain way'

Haven't you just started to 'like who you've become'? Cuz... When you're talking, you seem like you're having fun too, Asuka-chan!

Fufu... You've got me there, sorry Rika...

I treated you like a kid, but you've actually shown your maturity

It's decided, my Hawaii swimsuit is gonna be a super sexy one-☆ Now you can't say 'It's too early for you, Rika' anymore-☆

Should I... Take back what I said?
