Classmate A
We're second-years now, but this still plays out the same.


Classmate B
Hang on. Don't tell me you're not friends with anyone in your own class.

Akito
Huh? Then what am I supposed to call you guys? But I'll be happy to leave if that's what you want.


Classmate A
Wait, what?! I thought we were besties!


Classmate B
Fine, leave. We didn't want you anyway.


Classmate B
Toya, as a former classmate, here's a friendly piece of advice. You're a socially awkward guy, so you should be talking with people from your own class more than someone like Akito here.

Toya
Thank you, but I should be fine. I've been able to put into practice all my experiences with you from last year.


Classmate A
Aw, shucks, that's a nice thing to say about us!

Mizuki
Apparently, the creator of the source material for this anime I'm hooked on lately was really influenced by mystery novels!

Mizuki
And both the original and the show have all these little nods to the genre scattered throughout it.

Classmates A & B
*Sigh*


Classmate A
*Sigh* Can't you tell that we're feeling depressed?


Classmate B
Yeah. If only there were someone to listen to what's bothering us.


Classmate A
Seriously, what happened?! How did I only grow three millimeters this past year?!


Classmate B
They told me that I shrank two centimeters! I'm supposed to be a growing teenager!


Classmate B
Wait, why do you sound so calm...? Please don't say that you grew...


Classmates A & B
...


Classmate B
Only two centimeters?! I shrank two centimeters! That puts me under 170!


Classmate A
Yeah, there's a huge difference between being above and below that number...!


Classmate B
Don't patronize us!


Classmate B
Akito! Gimme your legs...! No, your torso! Five centimeters! That's all I ask!

*Door Sliding*

Classmates A & B
What...?!


Classmate A
How is this fair?! It's like only the tall ones get to keep growing!


Classmate B
Yeah! I'm really starting to reconsider our relationship!


Classmate A
Oh...


Classmate B
No, that was a joke! I didn't mean what I just said! Don't take it seriously!


Classmate A
Guh...! You're right, but this is still really frustrating...


Classmate B
Yeah, that's all true! Sorry, Toya, you've done nothing wrong...!

Toya
For a second there, I was worried that I'd overstepped a boundary and said or done something to offend you...


Classmate B
Argh...! M-My poor heart...


Classmate A
No, big feet means being able to support a large body! It's a sign that someone's ready to grow, right?!

Akito
Yeah, I thought the same thing. But it's apparently normal to stop growing after your voice changes.


Classmate A
What...?!


Classmate B
No, that doesn't make any sense. You're still growing! Explain that!

Akito
I mean, if you wanna grow taller, then why don't you make some changes to your current lifestyle? Staying up late playing video games probably isn't helping.


Classmate B
Urgh... I didn't come here to be lectured.
