Nakamura-senpai<br />Is it ok for you to keep showing up at the team's activities like this?<br /><br />-... hm<br />I guess if the third years keep showing up like this it's distracting?<br /><br />Page 3<br />Ah, no, I'm glad you're showing up like this!<br />/it's fun when the senpai are here!<br />/you don't have to worry about us like that<br />No, no...<br /><br />Because... you have the university examinations coming up<br />/ah, Nakamura-senpai's an honour student so she's fine<br />-... just, being swept along without resistance along the soft currents<br /><br />Is this alright...<br />Is this normal?<br /><br />Page 4<br />I'm returning the tests from yesterday<br />Come get it when I call out your name<br /><br />Wa-n it was horrible this time, how were you, Shizu-chan?<br />Well it's probably perfect or 90 or...<br /><br />Oyo?<br />That's rare<br />Well I guess there're days like this sometimes<br /><br />I guess<br />/she's not answering that at all<br /><br />Page 5<br />Senpai good bye<br />Kay<br /><br />It's gotten really late...<br />Shortcut shortcut<br />/if I go through here it's faster<br /><br />Sound of water?<br />/maybe a stray cat fell in or something?<br /><br />Page 6<br />Yo, Shizu!<br /><br />What are you doing, Katsuo...<br />It's really cold, I guess swimming in it is impossible<br /><br />You're really out of whack<br />/you're wanting to swim in the middle of winter?<br />Well I don't think I'm that-<br />It wasn't a compliment				<br /><br />Page 7<br />Alright Shizu<br />Big brother will walk you home<br />He's a senior, but I still can't figure out why Katsuo is this simple-minded			<br /><br />Our school won't make it a hot-spring pool<br /><br />If only they'd that, then Shizu and I could always swim freely<br /><br />Well, this guy probably has no worries or anything<br />I'm ready	<br /><br />Page 8<br />... what?<br /><br />You... haven't been very energetic lately<br /><br />I don't... think I'm any different, though?<br /><br />Page 9<br />Hmm...<br />It's really rare for Shizu-chan to get consecutive bad scores<br /><br />Well, with a storm of tests like this<br />See, Shizu-chan's working out with the team, too, maybe she's tired?<br /><br />Hmm, this bowl of fried-fish and rice, the shrimps are small	<br />... she's not minding at all?<br /><br />Oh, Nakamura's still showing up at the team activities at this time?<br />Maybe that's eating away at your study time<br /><br />It's not a bad thing to work on what you want to do now<br />But you need to keep studying for what you want to do in the future<br />... what I want to do?<br /><br />Page 10<br />Right... like Minami, wanting to go into the same university as her boyfriend (Houno) and have a sweet four years<br />S- Sensei!<br />Hohoooooooo I see, Ryouko<br /><br />What, Aoi was working hard to get into the same university as Youta-san too!!<br />No- nooooooo not so loud!<br /><br />Well, just don't enjoy the present so much that you forget you're an exam student<br />What I want to do...<br /><br />... it's not like I'm clinging to the swim team<br />But studying for the exam was also just a side-thought that I should work to get into a university<br /><br />I guess... everyone has their own goals<br />I wonder what I want to do<br /><br />Page 11<br />-... I don't really have... one...<br /><br />... maybe that's really a sad thing<br /><br />Well anyways, I'm still an exam student<br /><br />I'll work hard<br />/good<br /><br />Page 12<br />Katsuo...<br />I wonder if he's still here<br /><br />Guess... not<br /><br />I wanted to talk to him about the team<br />Oh well, I'll just talk to him another time, time to go home time to go home	<br /><br />Page 13<br />There he is...<br /><br />What are you doing there?<br />Yo... Shizu<br /><br />Baked potatoes<br /><br />It's the winter of your senior year... and Katsuo's still having fun<br /><br />Page 14<br />Yup!<br />There's not much more fun than this<br /><br />Shizu-kun, are you enjoying school life?<br /><br />... it's not boring, but if I guess it's dull<br />Well you can't swim in winter<br /><br />The cold of winter and the cold of the water<br />It doesn't feel real<br /><br />It's like I'm someone else<br /><br />Page 15<br />If you feel dull, it's because you're not doing something you like<br /><br />So, what did you want to talk about?<br />... yeah<br /><br />Katsuo, what are you going to do after graduating?<br />/is there something you want to do?<br />Me?<br /><br />I'm going to become a fish<br />I want to keep swimming freely<br /><br />Page 16<br />I'm stupid for even asking you<br /><br />Katsuo... tell the swim team members for me<br />Hn... what is it?<br /><br />I'm... going to stop showing up<br /><br />Page 17<br />What are you going to do instead?<br /><br />Of course, study for the exam<br /><br />Well...<br />Farewell, captain<br /><br />Page 18<br />Since then, I...<br />Went full-force into my studies<br /><br />Days and months went by quickly, and before I realized it, the second semester was ending<br />I began acting more like an exam student<br /><br />-... however...<br /><br />It's your last test exam of the year, but what's with the grade				<br />Hah...<br /><br />If it keeps going down like this you'll be in trouble getting into your school, ok?<br />That's odd...<br />But I've spent even more time studying?<br /><br />Page 19<br />Even if it's a slump, if it's going on this long this could be bad<br /><br />Shi-zu<br />What's wrong, you look downcast<br /><br />Tomorrow evening... after the graduation ceremony, we're having a Christmas Party at the Sunflower, where I work<br />Shizu-chan do you want to come along, too?<br /><br />Sorry...<br />It looks like I'll be in trouble unless I study<br /><br />Page 20<br />... Alright<br /><br />But we'll be waiting<br />If you change your mind, come over<br />/you'd better!<br />Ok...	<br /><br />What am I doing...<br />Turning down invitations from my friends<br /><br />Is this the exam student's blues?<br /><br />But I don't feel any rush<br />It doesn't feel real<br /><br />Page 21<br />Every now and then... it feels like I couldn't care less about what happens<br />And I'm afraid of that<br /><br />Yo, Shizu!<br /><br />What a coincidence... let's go home together<br /><br />Page 22<br />You going home at this hour, that's unusual, isn't it?<br />/how about the team?<br />Mmm... I also go home early some days<br /><br />You probably heard I've been down from Oogata Ryouko and the others, so you waited for me<br />/what do you mean, a coincidence<br />I hate having people worry for me<br /><br />Will you leave me alone?<br /><br />Page 23<br />And Shizu is bad for wanting people to do that<br /><br />If you don't want people to worry about you, then make sure you don't make them worry in the first place<br /><br />When are you saying I ever made people worry about me?<br />... always<br /><br />Page 24<br />Until the summer, Shizu was free			<br />You spread out your limbs and swam... breathed<br /><br />But right now, in water where you can't see ahead<br />You're a fish that stopped swimming<br /><br />Page 25<br />I can't believe you<br /><br />The hell do you mean, fish...<br />Grow up<br /><br />We're seniors already<br />It's no longer the time to just keep doing what you want to do<br /><br />... bye bye<br /><br />Page 26<br />What am I doing?<br /><br />I didn't...<br />Want to say that<br /><br />I hurt Katsuo...<br />All he did was worry about me<br /><br />Page 27<br />I can't see ahead nor behind me...<br />I don't know what I'm supposed to do<br /><br />I don't understand myself<br /><br />Snow...<br /><br />Ryouko's party's started by now<br /><br />Page 28<br />It's a white christmas pretty enough to make you sad<br /><br />Page 29<br />The water...<br />Looks a bit muddy<br /><br />It's like the future of us seniors<br /><br />Page 30<br />Shizu isn't very kind to herself right now<br /><br />Even though she actually wants to swim, using the exam as a reason, she refuses to let her arms and legs move...<br />And so she can't even manage to breathe right<br /><br />Page 31<br />I'm an exam student,  there's no helping it<br /><br />... I don't really get those difficult things<br /><br />But I know this much<br />I'm... a fish<br /><br />Fishes swim<br />And so I...<br /><br />Page 32<br />Swim when I want to swim<br /><br />Page 33<br />H... hey<br />Katsuo!?<br /><br />I... love myself when I swim<br /><br />... you're doing such insane things<br />For the high school exam, I was worrying so much I was about to stop swimming<br /><br />But all of a sudden...<br />I couldn't do anything<br />In the end... all I could do was loosen up my shoulders and swim through the muddy waters again<br /><br />Page 34<br />Shizu-...<br />You're probably also a fish<br /><br />Even if you can't see in front in the water... if you swim like you always do<br />You'll quickly regain yourself and start breathing again<br /><br />I...<br /><br />Liked...<br />Shizu's swimming<br /><br />Page 35<br />Spreading out your limbs as far as they could go...<br />Swimming happily, that glowing Shizu<br />I've watched you these past three years<br /><br />Don't push yourself...<br />Loosen up a bit<br /><br />Page 36<br />You...<br />Need an asylum<br /><br />Page 37<br />Hyoooooooooooooh!!<br /><br />Wh- wh- wh-... what happened, Shizu?<br /><br />What happened...<br />You said to come, so I came<br />Not that!<br />Why are you all wet!?<br /><br />Well I did some swimming in the school pool<br />/doshieeeeeeee<br /><br />Page 38<br />Why in the middle of winter...<br />/these kids...<br /><br />/here, Shizu-chan, towel!<br />/Katsuo-kun too!<br /><br />I wanted to swim, so I swam<br /><br />... I see<br />I'll just be myself<br /><br />Page 39<br />Even in heavy, cold water where you can't see ahead...<br />If I swim like myself<br />Then that's that, but more importantly<br /><br />At the end of high school life...<br />A future that suits me will be waiting<br /><br /><br />Winter Term End</summary>

Youta-kun!?<br />Kya...<br /><br />S... sorry!<br />It's not a story someone else should be talking about<br />I'm sorry... I forced him to tell me<br />... It's alright<br /><br />Page 21<br />Eh?<br />It's alright... by now<br /><br />It's just a story about the past...<br />/here, breakfast<br /><br />-... So that's it...<br /><br />Why he always stared at that door...<br />Is because he was waiting for his old girlfriend<br /><br />Page 22<br />The past-... no...<br /><br />I get it...<br /><br />Knowing me, covering for me, being kind<br /><br />All of it is because I look similar<br />... to his old girlfriend<br /><br />Page 23<br />I was so happy...<br /><br />That's true... if he still has her photo, then he's not over her yet<br />Hn...<br />/is your job alright?<br />/it's closed until 3~4<br /><br />It feels like, wow~ what now<br /><br />... so<br />Aoi is going to give up on Youta-san?<br /><br />Page 24<br />... what else can I do<br />He loves her so much he still carries her photo<br />And... for me to confess to him, with how similar I look<br />Feels like cheating...<br /><br />But... the one close to Youta-kun now is Aoi-chan!<br />You're still going to give way to the old girlfriend and give up?<br /><br />What's more important is not the old girlfriend but the feeling of liking Youta-san<br /><br />Page 25<br />-...hn<br />Alright...<br /><br />Alright, I've decided...<br />I'm going to gather up courage and confess!<br />/go at it head on-<br />Alright!<br />That's Aoi!!<br /><br />/good luck<br /><br />Page 26<br />...

Youta-san<br /><br />Page 29<br />I-...<br />Youta-san..<br />Aoi-chan!<br /><br />It's almost time for the store to open<br /><br />... then<br />I can't be it<br /><br />Page 30<br />Aoi-cha...<br />Even before I started working here...<br />I was always watching Youta-san!<br /><br />I was happy I could finally talk to you...<br />I was so happy I could cry when you called me by my name<br />/what what<br /><br />Even if it was just a bit...<br />I wanted you to see me!<br /><br />... Aoi-chan!<br /><br />Page 31<br />You left your belongings... and without a word ran out?<br />Yeah...

I'm really sorry!!<br /><br />Oh no... he's looking really scary!<br />What to do...<br />What to do!!<br /><br />-... um<br />You said &quot;look at me&quot; yesterday, so I'm looking<br /><br />Page 34<br />M... meanie!<br />/uh~~~~<br />Yep<br />/did you just notice?<br /><br />/he laughed...<br /><br />... Youta-san?<br />In the beginning, I was drawn to you because you looked like her<br /><br />But-...<br />As that feeling got stronger<br />I thought I couldn't let it be like this...<br />It's rude to Aoi-chan<br /><br />That's why I tried not to think about it and looked away<br /><br />Page 35<br />But yesterday... when you left yesterday, I felt really empty, and I thought about why that was<br /><br />My old girlfriend is perfect somewhere...<br />And was the type to never show her feelings to others<br /><br />But Aoi-chan is hyper...<br />/sucks at cooking<br />And shows her emotions so well it's impossible to miss<br /><br />When she cries...<br />/that's mean<br />She immediately laughs or gets angry<br />/like that!<br /><br />With her expression rolling around changing and changing...<br />I became surprised<br /><br />Page 36<br />She's entirely different from my old girlfriend...<br />A bright, straight-forward, smiling Aoi-chan<br /><br />I liked that you so much...<br />That I couldn't figure out what to do<br /><br />Page 37<br />I'm sorry...<br />/I made this yesterday, do you want to eat it?<br />/I'll eat it...<br /><br />From the door I was always waiting for to open<br />I just realized that Aoi-chan stepped through<br /><br />Page 38<br />Huh-?<br /><br />Aoi... weren't you going to quit the job?<br />/what? quit<br />Ahahaaaaaaa<br /><br />Come on-... Ryoko!<br />There's no way I'd quit at such a busy time~!?<br />/ok ok<br /><br />Plus Aoi-chan has to keep being trained to cook by me<br />Uwah... that sounds like it'll take a lot of time<br />Yes-<br />... that's so cruel<br />/even though it's true<br /><br />Page 39<br />Well...
