Maki #348: I'm Always Me
Maki
I'm so relieved that I got a perfect score. But this test took everything I had just to finish in time.
Maki
Maybe I should spend more time studying in the morning.
Eli
Maki, you were already here?
Maki
Eli!
Eli
You look a little down. Is something bothering you?
Maki
Not really. It's just that I didn't have enough time to do one final look-over of my test, so I'm thinking about how I need to work harder.
Eli
Really? So even the academic achiever Maki worries about that.
Eli
Oh?
Eli
What? I thought you might have gotten a low grade, but you got a perfect score like always.
Maki
D-Don't look. It's only natural to get full points on a test.
Eli
Not really. You only get full points when you really understand the material.
Maki
Well, I suppose that's not so bad to hear from you, Eli.
Maki
I won't lose to anyone when studying is involved. I will always keep my grades right at this level.
Maki
I'm not going to let anyone tell me that being a school idol has a bad effect on my grades!
Eli
*Chuckle* I'm glad to hear that.
Maki
Wh-What do you mean?
Eli
You're back to your usual self. I love the look in your eye when you know you're going to win.
Maki
Hey!
Maki
Stop teasing me! Come on, it's time to start the club.
Eli
Sure, sure. Let's keep doing our best.
