Hina: Well. Then.

Hina: Why do I have to listen to your sermon out here, Hayate-kun?
Hayate: N-no. It wasn't really a sermon...

Hina: Geez...
Hina: That's none of your business!!
Hina: And it means you don't find me to be weak or cute...

Hayate: It may be none of my business...
Hayate: but I'm worried about you because you have no self-awareness.

Text in right margin: Hayate "confessed" that he thought Hinagiku-san should have more shame. Hinagiku-san's anger was the natural response.

03

Hina: I have no self-awareness?
Hina: About what?
Hayate: Well you...

Hayate: have no self-awareness of the fact that you're...a cute girl...

Hina: Eh?

Hayate: You're a very cute and charming girl.
Hayate: The fact that you're so defenseless despite that fact isn't good for the guys around you...

Hayate: Umm...are you listening?
Hina: Eh!?

04

Hina: Wh-what are you talking about!? This is none of your business either!!
Hayate: S-sorry...

Hayate: It's no good...I made her mad again...
Hayate: I really am no good at this...And I have to thank her properly...This is a problem...

Hina: W-waah...
Hina: Wh-what should I do...?
Hina: This is a problem...

Hina: I'm so happy...
Hina: my expression won't go back to normal...!!

Hina: Th-this is bad, Hinagiku.... If Hayate-kun saw you smiling like this...
Hina: It'd be so embarrassing you'd die...
Hayate: But I'm so happy my smile just won't go away...

05

Hina: A-anyway, I...I just have to work hard at not making any kind of expression...
Hayate: Uhh...What's with this long silence...? I must have really made her mad...

Hayate: But I have to show her my thanks...
Hayate: Um, Hinagiku-san?

Hina: Ah?

Hayate: Waaah!! I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!!
Hayate: I didn't think I'd made you that mad!!
Hina: Y-you haven't made me mad!!

Hayate: But...!! Then why did you give me such a stern look...!?
Hina: Well...I...!!

06

SFX: *growwwwwl*

Hayate: So you were angry...because you were hungry?

07

Hina: I'm not in elementary school!! You idiot!!
Hayate: Hinagiku-san!!

Hayate: Kh...!! She always runs away at the crucial point...!!
Hayate: But...!!
Hayate: But...!!

Hayate: This time...!! I won't let her run!!
Hayate: Wait, Hinagiku-san!!

Hina: Haa
Hina: Haa

08

Hina: Geez!! What...!?
Hina: What's wrong with me...!?

Hina: I've just been so lame...
Hina: And I don't know what expression to face Hayate-kun with...

Hayate: Wait, Hinagiku-san!!

Hina: Why are you chasing me!!
Hayate: Because you're running away from me!!
Hina: What are you, a puppy!?

Hina: I never...
Hina: asked you to come after me...!!

09

Hayate: Hinagiku-san!!
Hayate: In front of you!!

Hina: Eh?

Hina: Ah...!!

Hayate: Hinagiku-san!!

10

Hayate: Hoo...

Hayate: Are you okay, Hinagiku-san...?

Hina: Hayate-kun...

11

Aika: That was a really close call.

Hayate: A-Aika-san!! Why are you here!?
Aika: Because the view is nice here and it was tea time.

Aika: And...what are you two doing?
Hayate: N-nothing...!!
Hayate: This was, umm...!!

Hayate: Hinagiku-san saved me a bit ago and I wanted to show her my thanks...!!

Aika: So you embraced her from behind so you could whisper your love to her...?
Hayate: No!!

12

Hayate: But I don't know how to show my thanks in a way that'll make her happy...

Aika: Hmm.
Aika: Thanks that will make her happy...

Aika: Ayasaki-kun.
Aika: Do you know of the Greek date course that's sure to make a girl happy?
Hayate: Eh?

Aika: There's a super high class Mediterranean restaurant called "Sunrise" on a hill that let's you see all of the Greek city of Athens.
Aika: The view there is the best and the food is the best, so it's the ideal restaurant to make a girl happy...

Aika: Inviting her there for dinner...
Aika: is a plan that would make almost any girl happy!!
Hayate: R-really!?

Aika: And of course...
Aika: our difficult student council president is no exception.
Hina: Who's difficult!?

13

Hayate: Th-then...!!
Aika: But prepare yourself, Ayasaki-kun.

Aika: That restaurant...
Aika: is expensive.

Hayate: Ah...Of course it is...

Aika: If you use my business card, you will get to use the VIP room that has the best view...
On card: Kasumi Aika
Aika: even though it's usually difficult to even get a reservation there.

Aika: But if you take this...
Aika: can you show her your thanks from your heart...
Aika: and use your own money?

14

On card: Kasumi Aika

Hayate: If I use all of the money...
Hayate: I got from that cafe I started working at the other day...

Hayate: I think I can...
Hayate: express my thanks to Hinagiku-san.

Hina: Hayate-kun...

Aika: Heh...
Aika: Such a gentleman...

15

Aika: I wish you good luck.
Hayate: Thank you very much, Aika-san...
Hayate: No...
Hayate: Love Master...!!

Hina: You'd...
Hina: better let me eat some really good food!!
Hayate: Eh?

Hina: And you'd better escort me!!
Hayate: Hinagiku-san...

Hina: ...Be...

16

Hina: Because I'm looking forward to this!!

Hayate: Okay!
Hayate: Just leave it to me!!
