Kanata Ep. 9: Restless Nights
Kanata is sad because she thinks Haruka doesn't like her. She's been too troubled about it to sleep at night. You stay behind with Kanata, who has fallen sound asleep in the club room, and ask her about Haruka on the walk home.
Player
Everyone ready to head home?
Rina
Kanata's asleep.
Player
What?
Kanata
Zzz… Zzz…
Setsuna
She looks so peaceful, I feel bad waking her up.
Player
Let her sleep, then. We still have to lock up, and I can stay until she wakes up. You all can go home.
Shizuku
But you…
Player
It's cool. Don't sweat it.
Karin
All right. Take care of her, then.
Kasumi
See you.
Player
See you tomorrow.
Player
Let's see. Maybe I'll take this chance to do my homework.
Kanata
Zzz… Zzz…
[Fade in/out.]
Kanata
Hn… Mmm… Oh, did I nod off?
Player
Good morning. Have a good sleep?
Kanata
Yeah. Where are the others?
Player
They left already.
Kanata
Wait, did you stay late for me? I'm sorry. You really shouldn't have.
Option 1: “It's no big deal.” |

Player It's no big deal. I got all my homework done while you were asleep. Kanata Huh? Now it sounds like you did something clever. But really, I'm sorry. |
Option 2: “I couldn't leave you like that.” |
Player You haven't been getting much shut-eye lately, have you? I couldn't just leave you like that. Kanata *Whine* You can see right through me. Sorry if I made you worry. |
Player
Did that nap help a little? Let's go home while you're still feeling refreshed.
Kanata
Yeah.
[Fade in/out.]
Player
So, has Haruka been making her own rice balls for lunch since the first time you brought it up?
Kanata
*Siiiiiiiigh*
Player
That was an extreme sigh. All right, say no more.
Kanata
She's been insisting on doing everything by herself ever since. She's avoiding me.
Player
Is it getting worse?
Kanata
It's the first time anything like this has happened, so I have no idea what to do. I haven't been able to sleep at all.
Kanata
*Sigh* I'm too scared to go home. The thought of her hating me forever terrifies me.
Player
Well, things can't continue like this. How about I ask Haruka why she's doing it? Maybe it'll be easier for her to open up to me. Or should I stay out of it?
Kanata
You'd do that? I'm a little scared to find out how she feels, but it would help if you could ask her for me.
