Mizuno: I've always had a slightly weak body you see.

Mizuno: My family has always been kind, but they also make too much of a fuss about it.

Mizuno: It's annoying just because my breathing get's obstructed a little. They should realize I'm an adult now.

>lil txt: Hahhh (sigh)

Gorou: That's why you don't like staying at home...?

Mizuno: It's been this way since I was young. I'm used to it now though.

Mizuno: I always wondered about what another family would be like.

Mizuno: Your family seems nice and peaceful Hozuki-kun.

Mizuno: Since you and your sister are always all over each other.

>top txt left: Date? (5)

Mizuno: I'm sure what I'm saying sounds selfish huh...?

Mizuno: I'm trying to be nice, and yet I end up making the mood all gloomy like this.

Mizuno: Thank you for listening anyway...

Gorou: ....well.

Gorou: Since you're growing up, it's only natural to think this way isn't it?

Mizuno: That's true huh? Because I'm growing up...

>top txt right: Date? (6)

Mizuno: Thanks for today.

Gorou: Uhmm, don't mention it.

Gorou: I was nervous at the cafe since I don't usually go out and talk to girls all that much....

Mizuno: I know a few more places to go out and kill time.

Gorou: They all require money don't they?

Mizuno: Well, yeah but that's okay since I have a part time job.

Mizuno: But I go to places that don't require money as well.

>top txt left: Date? (7)

Gorou: Well, see you later.

Mizuno: Okay.

Mizuno: ....will you listen to my complaints some other time as well?

Gorou: Y, yeah....okay.

Gorou: That could have been a disaster.

Gorou: But still, she was kind of cute...

Gorou: No, I can't!! What am I thinking!?
