Choir Recital Chairman
Okay. Has your class decided on its free choice selection?


Choir Recital Chairman
Smile Tomorrow Too is a great choice, but also very difficult. Are you sure about this?


Choir Recital Chairman
Don't worry about it. Your class wasn't the only one that took a while to decide.


Choir Recital Chairman
You've got your work cut out for you, but thank you for your song choice!


Classmates
Everyone has stuff going on in their lives, so we should just go for something simpler.


Classmates
But can't you see we're trying to drum up some enthusiasm here? You really should've kept all those demoralizing excuses to yourselves.

Shiho
You're making it pretty obvious you think your current friends would turn on you given half a chance.
Honami
I think I've figured it out. What I needed was the courage to speak my mind... And the courage to trust my friends.


Classmate A
Honami! We were looking for you!


Classmate B
We thought something happened because you were taking so long to get back!


Classmate A
What happened, Honami? Did the committee say something mean to you?!


Classmate B
Was it because we took too long to choose our song?


Classmate A
That wasn't Honami's fault! Who do they think they are?!


Classmate A
Me too! I'm gonna go give that committee a piece of my mind!

Honami
But if you were sent to look for me, it must mean that everyone in the class is waiting for us, right? We should hurry back.


Classmates
Welcome back, Mochizuki!


Classmates
We've been trying to come up with a schedule together while you were gone.


Classmates
It's still pretty rough but can you take a look and tell us what you think?


Classmates
Honestly, some of us still aren't in the mood yet, but that doesn't mean we want you to do all the heavy lifting.


Classmates
We'll help out with whatever we can.

Cleanup Committee Senior
You must be Mochizuki. Have you been told what the cleanup committee does for beautification week?

Honami
Yes. We look out for litter, like lunchboxes or wrappers that may've been left behind, and see if students are throwing away their trash properly.


Cleanup Committee Senior
That's right. Okay, let's start.

Honami
(She's cool and decisive... And if I remember correctly, she's the vice captain of the badminton club too... She's so impressive...)


Cleanup Committee Senior
Yeah. There's no litter around... Aha.


Freshman
Ah, that was delicious.


Cleanup Committee Senior
Hey, hold on a second. Yes, you.


Freshman
Huh? Um, yes!


Cleanup Committee Senior
Always cover your disposable lunchbox before throwing it away, or at least put it in the bag it came in.


Freshman
U-Umm...

Honami
The garbage bins at school aren't covered, so if a box is left exposed, the odor might attract flies and other pests. Please make sure to put it in a bag before throwing these away.


Freshman
Oh, I see...


Cleanup Committee Senior
Understand?


Freshman
Y-Yes, ma'am! I'll be more careful next time!


Cleanup Committee Senior
Alright, we're done for today. Good work, today.

Honami
Um... I just wanted to say that I was impressed by the way you delivered your warning back there.


Cleanup Committee Senior
Oh, really? I mean... Someone has to say it, right?


Cleanup Committee Senior
Also... You helped me back there too.


Cleanup Committee Senior
Don't worry about it. I'm looking forward to being paired up with you for another patrol.

*Footsteps*

Classmate A
Sigh...


Classmate B
C'mon! Cheer up already! You can't mope around like this forever.


Classmate A
I know, but...


Classmate B
Hey, Honami. Oh, it's nothing major. She just had a fight with a senior club member and I'm trying to comfort her.


Classmate A
Don't cheapen it like that! This is a serious matter for me, okay?


Classmate A
Okay... Well, this girl was really breathing down my neck. I mean, it was my fault that I kept making the same mistakes over and over again but...


Classmate A
She just kept saying, Where are you looking? or, Get your head back in the game! But she could've been a little nicer, right?!


Classmate B
Actually, I was kind of surprised too since it was the vice captain saying all these things.


Junior High Classmate
Whose side are you on?


Classmate B
You okay, Honami...?

Honami
Actually, I kind of know the badminton club's vice captain because we're both in the cleanup committee.

Honami
We talked the other day too and I just can't imagine her acting like that. Could it be that she meant something else when she said that?


Classmate A
Huh? She might've meant something else?


Classmate B
Oh, right...! Didn't she talk about your opponent's style or tactics or something after she asked, Where are your eyes?


Classmate B
But I guess you didn't hear that part. You were already pretty upset by then...


Classmate A
I-I didn't hear anything like that at all...

Honami
In that case, you could always ask her again or maybe see if someone heard what she said back there. Then you'll definitely understand what she was trying to say.


Cleanup Committee Senior
Good work today, Mochizuki.


Cleanup Committee Senior
And thank you for the other day too. My clubmate understands what I was trying to tell her now.


Cleanup Committee Senior
I wanted to tell her to watch the opponent closely and try to predict her next move, so that it's easier to come up with a counter.


Cleanup Committee Senior
But, well... It kinda fell flat. Sigh... I never choose the right words.


Cleanup Committee Senior
I guess I have to watch what I say too, huh? Anyway, I'm off to the club now, so... Bye!
