*Pant* *Pant*

Is she already here? I've gotta hurry!

[Fade in/out.]

I'm home!

Welcome home! You're pretty early today.

Yukiho, is she already here?

She had some special lessons after classes today and said she'd be a little late, remember? You were just in too big a hurry.

Ahaha, come to think of it…

She's going to help you mind the shop today, right?

Yeah, so I'm super looking forward to it!

*Stare*

N-Need something?

You didn't force her to come along because you didn't want to mind the store alone, did you?

N-No! She even said she was looking forward to this, too!

She's helping you out with the shop and practice, huh? How nice of her.

Yeah! She's not just nice, either; she's very reliable!

Oh, and when I was practicing yesterday, she said that my singing inspired her! *Giggle*

Oh yeah?

It's strange, because I'm the one getting inspired with how much she's helping me!

Sounds like that love's mutual, then.

L-Love?

Oh, not like that.

Just hearing you now, I thought you two deeply trusted each other. Like things are going well between you.

What's between us is… Is love?!

I told you, I didn't mean it like that!

More importantly, how about you get ready before she gets here? I mean, isn't she due soon?

Y-You're right! Hey, my clothes and hair aren't weird, right?

No, they're fine.

Would it be weird if we both wore aprons while minding the shop?!

Honoka! Don't ask me about that, ask her!

Oh! You're right! I'll go get her, then!

She could just wait a few minutes, but that's my sister, all right.

But I'm glad that μ's has someone now they can depend on. Good for you.
