Student Girl 1st: I see...
Yuki's Mind: Who was it?
Yuki's Mind: Don't tell me his idol likes her!
Yuki's Mind: Or... Inomata-san from the gifted class?
Hayato took the love letter away from Ryuuichi with his hand when he spoke.
Hayato: Well, there's no name on it.
Hayato: Maybe it's a prank.
Ryuuichi: Kamitani!
Hayato: Hard to imagine any girl doing something so old-fashioned these days...
Ryuuichi took the love letter away from Hayato with his hand.
Ryuuichi: I-I'll do it! I'll check it myself! You don't have to open it!
Hayato: I'm not gonna open something that doesn't belong to me.
Ryuuichi: Still... it can't be a love letter.
Ryuuichi: Girls don't especially like me.
Usokawa's Mind: How many girls has he ignored to think that?

Maria: Excuse me!
Ryuuichi: Hm?

Usokawa: What? Kashima, do you like this girl?
Ryuuichi: Eh?
Hayato: Why are you blushing, too?
Ryuuichi: No, it's just... no one's ever said this to me...
Yuki: ...
Ryuuichi took the love letter away from Usokawa with his hand.
Ryuuichi: Anyway, I need to give careful thought to my reply, I guess.
Ryuuichi: For now, I need to get to the daycare room.
He said as he walked past them when Hayato spoke.

Yuki: ...She's my favorite idol. But I'm scared when I told her I have to write lyric for her!
Student Girl 1st: Hey, you can vent to me. Let's stop somewhere on the way home.
Student Girl 1st: You're invited, Inomata-san.

Minori: I told you I'm fine!
I avoid Ryuuichi when he shocked.
Ryuuichi's Mind: What's wrong Minori-hime... but why she avoid me?
Ryuuichi's Mind: I need to think of what to say...
Mina & Kotaro: ...
Ryuuichi's Mind: But... my chances of dating have always felt so remote, I've never even thought about it...
Kirin told Ryuuichi as the book is upside-down when he widen his eyes.
Ryuuichi's Mind: Now that I think about it, I don't even know the person who sent that letter very well...
Ryuuichi's Mind: But being told someone l-likes me did feel pretty nice.
Hayato saw it when he point Ryuuichi's indoor shoes as Ryuuichi saw it as he widen his eyes.
After all, Hayato and Ryuuichi look around for me... because I was not here.
Ryuuichi's Mind: Minori-hime is acting strange...

Ryuuichi looked at Hayato when he spoke.
Hayato: Forget him.
Hayato: You two go around the festival together with Minori-hime and her sister.
Minori: What? Why?
Hayato: Because, we're not at school. You're under no obligation to look after him here.
Hayato: And you two don't want to drag around a pain-in-the-neck like him.
Minori: Dude... this isn't about clubs. We just want to help you look.
Ryuuichi: I agree with Minori-hime.
Ryuuichi: We're friends, right?
Hayato: ...
Minori: Right!?
I stare at Hayato when he sighed.
Hayato: Right.
Hayato: But you two are really something.
Minori: How so?
Hayato: If he wasn't my little brother, I'd never spend time with a pain-in-the-neck like him.
Ryuuichi and Taka widen their eyes.
Taka: I don't wanna play with you either, Nii-chan!
Ryuuichi: Please stop making him cry, Kamitani.

Usokawa: What's up with her?
Ryuuichi: She lost her aunt Hanayo's pin.
He said, we leave before those 3 boys are shocked. Ryuuichi spoke him as to look for Taka's toy small sword and my aunt Hanayo's pin, but the man said sorry.
Ryuuichi: W-We couldn't find it...
Taka: My... my sword...
Minori: I never find my aunt Hanayo's pin...
Cotton Candy Sellerman: Hey there, kiddo.
Minori: Hm?
Cotton Candy Sellerman: If you dropped something, there should be a lost-and-found at the festival office.
Minori: Oh!
Ryuuichi: Thank you!
Ryuuichi: Okay, let's go, Taka, Minori-hime!
Taka nodded his head as so do I.
Tomoya: Welcome. How can I help?
I see a lot of girls and women's eyes like a heart.
Ryuuichi: Eh? Yagi?
Ryuuichi: I was wondering why there were so many girls around here...
Hayato: What's this, a host club?
Tomoya: I live in this neighborhood, so I'm helping out.
Tomoya: What about you three?
Ryuuichi: Actually, Taka and Minori-hime here lost his toy sword and her aunt Hanayo's pin.
He said, Tomoya look down as shocked because Taka cry, Mina holding Taka's left hand and Kotaro holding Taka's right hand.
Taka: My sword...
Tomoya: How... awful.
He said as his nose are bleeding.
Ryuuichi: You're the one looking awful!
He said, I took my handkerchief to dabbing Tomoya's nose. But a lot of girls glare at me as jealous.
New Tomoya's Fangirl 1st: WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE!
New Tomoya's Fangirl 2nd: Tomoya is ours! Get away from him!
New Minori's Fangirl 2nd: SHUT UP BITCH! LEAVE OUR MINORI! SHE'S SWEET AND AN IDOL!
My new fangirls glare at new Tomoya's fangirls to make them flinched.
Tomoya: Thanks Minori.
He thank me as smile when I smile back.
Chuukichi: You're good as helping him, Minori-hime.
I turn my head... it's my childhood Chuukichi.
Minori: Chuukichi?
Chuukichi: The lost-and-found is over, Kashima. Minori-hime.
Ryuuichi: Nezu!
Chuukichi: We have quite a few toy swords, so just wait a minute.
Chuukichi: Suekichi, Kichi, get them out.
Kichi & Suekichi: Okay.
They said as to get them out... but there's no Taka's toy sword are here.
Taka: Mine's not here...
Chuukichi: I see.
Chuukichi: I'm afraid these are the only ones we've received.
Chuukichi: I'm sorry, I couldn't help it.
Taka whimper.
Ryuuichi: Taka...
Mina patted Taka's head with her small hand.
Hayato: ...
Hayato: Hey, Taka...
Hayato: We've done a lot of searching, and we can't find it. You need to give up.
Taka hear as what his big brother said when he turn around as he shake his head.
Taka: No! I wanna keep looking!
Hayato: Then look by yourself.
Taka widen his eyes when Ryuuichi stood up.
Ryuuichi: Hey, Kamitani, don't be like tha-
Hayato: Shut your mouth.
Minori: NO, YOU SHUT YOUR MOUTH!?
Hayato: !?
Everyone look at me as shocked.
Minori: How could you such a jerk about your little brother!?
Minori: If I give up! My aunt Hanayo was crying for me!?
Minori: Hayato, you are such an idiot!
I yelled when I hitted Hayato's chest repeatedly with my fists.
Hayato: H-Hey! Stop it!
Hayato: If you keep crying... do you think your beloved aunt doesn't hate you!
I stopped when I look up as he hugged me gently and he spoke.
Hayato: Your Aunt loves you... so stop hitting me, understand.
He said as softly... to making me crying on his chest when he stroke my hair with his hand.
Ryuuichi's Mind: Minori-hime...
Hayato: In exchange, if you two give up... I'll take you to that lottery booth.
Minori: But...
Taka and I look up at him when Hayato looked away because he's blush.
Hayato: Deal with it, idiot.
Hayato: This is the best compromise you're getting.
Hayato: And make sure you thank Kashima for looking for it.
Ryuuichi: Eh?
Hayato look at Ryuuichi when he spoke.
Hayato: If he hadn't asked me to look for it, I would have made you give up from the start.
Hayato: Without the lottery offer, of course.
Ryuuichi laughed nervous.
Hayato: Well? Gonna go look for it by yourself?
Minori: ...
Taka and I look down.
Taka: I...
Taka: I give up.
Hayato: And you?
Minori: I give up...
I said, Hayato place his both hands on my head and Taka's head.
Hayato: Okay, then, let's go.
Old Man: Go on. Draw your lots.
Old Man: Hm?
Taka stare at it.
Hayato: Go on. Pull one.
Ryuuichi: Kamitani, give him a minute. He needs to think.
Taka: ...
As suddenly, Kotaro and Mina grab the string one by one. Taka gasp when they pull the string.
Ryuuichi: Kotaro! Mina!
Kotaro and Mina pull together them out... it's Taka's toy sword and my Aunt's pin.
Minori: My Aunt Hanayo's pin!
Hayato and Ryuuichi shocked.
Ryuuichi: Incredible!
Ryuuichi: It's just like Taka's old sword!
Ryuuichi: And Minori-hime's aunt Hanayo's pin.
I hold my aunt Hanayo's pin and Taka hold his toy sword.
Ryuuichi: Great job, Kotaro! Mina!
Minori: I can't believe him! He stole my aunt Hanayo's pin!?
Hayato & Ryuuichi: WHAT!?
Hayato glare at the man when he grab his collar.
Hayato: Hey, old man. Let's talk!
Old Man: No, I swear I didn't just find it!
Minori: He's liar!
Ryuuichi's Mind: As an apology, the old man gave us the newest game system... or rather, a piggy bank shaped like one.
*In Aijima Mansion*
Cecilia: Having fun?
Mina: Yes, momma! That old man stole our aunt Hanayo's pin from the newest game booth!
Cecilia: WHAT!
Cecil: Minori, is that true?
Minori: Yes, father... thanks to Hayato. He's such a kind man.
I said as my cheeks are red.
Cecil: Looks like Minori have a crush~
Minori: DAD!?
My father laughed as teasing me because my cheeks are still red as blushing.
Minori: Sh-Sheesh.
