Side Story 1


Mafuyu's Room
Mafuyu: <Okay, see you tomorrow.>
Mizuki: <See you, Mafuyu!>
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (Still, what was that sound...?)
Mafuyu: <...!>
Kanade: <Yuki...? What's wrong?>
Mafuyu: <The hallway... I thought I just heard a noise...>
Mafuyu: (But I already said that I'd be staying up a little late to work on my cram school assignments...)
Mafuyu: (She even made me soup as a midnight snack, so it shouldn't be that surprising to see me still up...)
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (I should make sure that I don't forget to take any textbooks and such, then go straight to bed.)
Mafuyu: (Come to think of it, about a week's passed since Mom last cleaned my room... She might come back to clean again tomorrow...)
Mafuyu: (I'm logged out of Nightcord... And I'll shut down my computer...)
Mafuyu: (That just leaves my lyrics notepad...)
Mafuyu: (I'll put it in my school bag and take it with me...)
Mafuyu: That should be everything. And I put my lyrics notepad in my bag.
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (How much longer do I have to keep hiding this from her...?)
Mafuyu: (But...)


Mafuyu's Mother: Um, Mafuyu... Is there anything you're hiding from me?
Mafuyu: What...? No, nothing. Why would I hide anything from you, Mom...?
Mafuyu's Mother: Are you sure?
Mafuyu's Mother: Can you say that while looking straight into my eyes?
Mafuyu: No, I'm not hiding anything from you. Again, Mom, why would I ever do that...?
Mafuyu's Mother: Then, what is the meaning of this?
Mafuyu: ...!
Mafuyu: (My synthesizer...)
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (My chest... It hurts...)
Mafuyu's Mother: Mafuyu? It's almost time for you to go to school. Do you have everything you need?
Mafuyu: Oh...
Mafuyu: Yes... I'll be right out.
Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy
Classmate: Good morning, Mafuyu!
Mafuyu: Good morning. Oh, your hair's parted in the middle now. It's nice. You look much more mature this way.
Classmate: Hehe. And I have you to thank for that, Mafuyu.
Classmate: But I still feel kinda bad about asking you for advice about this. I know it must've seemed like something out of left field.
Mafuyu: No, I knew that you were very busy studying for exams, so I hope changing things up will help you stay motivated.
Classmate: It definitely will! Lemme pay you back by getting you some delicious cake sometime!
Mafuyu: Oh, are you sure? Then, I may just take you up on that.
Classmate: Yes, I'm absolutely sure! I'll look for a nice shop!
Mafuyu: Hehe. I'll be looking forward to that very much.
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: (What happened just now...?)
Mafuyu: (It definitely seemed like I was talking, but it felt like someone else was...)
Mafuyu: (And... What is this sensation...? I feel all light and foggy...)
Mafuyu: (Did I catch a cold again...? But I'm not running a fever...)
???: Asahina...?
Mafuyu: ...!

Side Story 2


Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy
???: Asahina...?
Mafuyu: ...!
Shizuku: Asahina... You had your hand on your forehead just now. Are you by chance not feeling well?
Mafuyu: I was...
Shizuku: Pardon me.
Mafuyu: Oh...
Shizuku: ... Hm...?
Shizuku: You don't seem to be running a fever...
Mafuyu: (I knew it... So, did I imagine that light and foggy feeling just now?)
Mafuyu: I'm sorry, Hinomori. I was just trying to move my bangs out of the way.
Shizuku: Huh...? I-I'm so sorry! I didn't realize! I completely jumped to the wrong conclusion and...
Mafuyu: It's okay. I really appreciate your concern.
Shizuku: Really? If you say so...
Mafuyu: Yes, you're so moth... It's like having an older sister.
Mafuyu: Oh, hang on. Hinomori, you actually have a younger sister. Is that how you usually check to see if she's running a fever...?
Shizuku: Yes, but Shii hardly ever catches a cold, so I've only ever done this a few times with her...
Mafuyu: I see. Still, you show concern for others in a way that makes you seem like an older sister.
Mafuyu: I can't help but admire that since I'm an only child.
Shizuku: Hehe. Thank you. But I believe that you'd also make a wonderful older sister, Asahina.
Mafuyu: What, me?
Shizuku: Yes. From club to the student council, you do such an incredible job of looking after all your juniors.
Shizuku: You're always willing to lend them your ear and they always seem so relieved after consulting you.
Shizuku: I believe it's proof that they trust and think very highly of you.
Mafuyu: Hehe. I sure hope that's the case.
Mafuyu: However, high expectations mean having to produce good results, which makes me a bit nervous.
Mafuyu: Have you ever thought that being an older sister is too tough?
Shizuku: Hmm... Too tough...? No, I can't say that I really have.
Shizuku: When we were little, I was a little worried about Shii since she had some trouble making new friends. Luckily, she ended up meeting some wonderful companions.
Shizuku: If anything, on more than one occasion, I felt rather feckless...
Mafuyu: You, Hinomori? Feckless?
Shizuku: Yes. In particular, after I started working as an idol, my hands became full with managing what I had to do.
Shizuku: I couldn't be there for her when she really needed me, which must've made her feel so lonely. On top of that, she had to plan things around me being an idol...
Shizuku: Honestly, I found the way Shii always stayed true to herself really encouraging.
Mafuyu: I wouldn't have guessed...
Shizuku: It felt like I was being given so much, while I gave Shii so little.
Shizuku: However... One time, she said, "You've given me so much"...
Shizuku: That made me incredibly happy.
Mafuyu: I see...
Shizuku: Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do all the talking.
Mafuyu: No, that's okay. Again, I'm an only child, so I really enjoy hearing stories about what it's like to have siblings.
Mafuyu: Also, you made it clear just now that your younger sister means the world to you.
Shizuku: Yes, she does! She's the apple of my eye!
Mafuyu: Hehe. That's so nice. I wish I had an older sister who could say things like that about me.
Mafuyu: (Siblings...)
Mafuyu: (Ena's like Hinomori... She's an older sister with a younger sibling...)
Mafuyu: (She calls him a "little brother with attitude", but they seemed really close.)
Mafuyu: (That reminds me...)
Ena: <Um, Yuki...? How have things between you and your mom been recently?>
Ena: <Okay... If you say so, Yuki.>
Ena: <But you need to tell us the next time something does happen...>
Mafuyu: (She shows a clear concern for others from time to time... That's usually when she seems the most like an older sister.)
Mafuyu: (Oh, Mizuki also has a sister... But she's much older, lives abroad and hasn't seen her in a while...)
Mafuyu: Siblings...
Mafuyu: ...
Mafuyu: I should head back to class...
