Is it a cold?

Are you feeling chilly?

Don't exaggerate, it was just a sneeze.

You are so overprotective.

Sorry.

We walk to school toward the high school's side gate every morning.

Hey.

What is it, Micchan?

Why are you always on my left, Koichi?

The main gate doesn't open until 7:30 a.m.

Because of basketball practice,

Koichi had to go earlier than this.

So we used the side gate instead.

I'm not in any clubs nor do any sport, so I don't have any morning practice.

I tag along with him anyway,

but I shouldn't have come on this day.

The rain.

The rain was...

incredibly cold.

[Episode 1]

Oumi!

Hey, come on, Oumi!

Thank you!

That class just now was so confusing.

You're amazing. This is so easy to understand.

So much better than our Class President.

What?

If only you were sociable, you would be perfect.

Right, Sumi-chan?

Try laughing for us.

I can laugh if I want.

But is there actually anything funny in this world?

Wow, you're not cute at all.

No, Micchan is cute.

What?

In gym class earlier, all we did was run,

but he almost tripped over his own feet.

It was so cute.

I was speechless.

I wish I had a video.

Sorry.

My name is Oumi Mitsuru.

The only one who calls me "Micchan" in this school is Koichi.

Yamada Koichi is the only one.

We met two years ago, in Spring.

It rained that day as well.

How many high schoolers were living

in Japan that year? I don't know.

I bet the number is pretty high.

This sucks.

Of all those people, Koichi enrolled in the same school as me,

was put in the same class,

and happened to make eye contact with me.

You could statistically call it a miracle.

Geez, but seriously, how'd his hair get so wet?

Oh, really? You noticed?

That's a lot.

Whoa, you're getting me wet.

Stop, you're making me wet.

- You're already wet. - That's true.

Thank god practice was canceled. Today's practice looked tough.

But I can't consider it a miracle.

After all, "miracle" is a lazy word.

It's nice when you want to stop thinking,

but it can become a habit.

It wasn't a coincidence that we'd often meet each other's eyes.

It was because I was looking his way.

Wow.

That lunch is really typical for you, Sumi-chan.

I packed it with my wishes.

- What wishes? - I can't tell yet.

Well, whatever. What did you bring, Yamada?

Well, I...

I was watching Koichi

because he was already popular.

Here we go!

What? Isn't that too much?

Isn't that the size of Kagami's face?

Well, my mom gets too excited every morning.

But still...

Can you eat all that?

I could finish that.

It's impossible, Sumi-chan.

I don't think anyone can.

I'll be right back.

Oumi, right?

Yeah, so what?

Can we talk?

Half a month after our eyes first met,

Koichi called me outside.

[Seiryoku-Zenyo] (T/N: maximum efficient use of energy)

What are you doing?

What?

You know, regarding sports and stuff.

Tennis. But I quit.

I play basketball... very actively.

Are we done here?

Can I leave?

Wait a second.

Can't we become friends?

What do you mean?

Well, you know, friends

that hang out with each other.

I don't need anyone to hang out with.

Then we can chat.

I don't need that, either.

Then we can be silent together.

"Silent together"?

But eat lunch with me.

Of course, we can do that in silence.

Is there anything I would gain from this?

Sorry, maybe there isn't.

There isn't, huh?

There's nothing really good about me.

I can play basketball, but that's irrelevant to you.

And I'm not smart like you.

You...

Your name is Yamada, right?

Yeah, it's Yamada. Yamada Koichi.

My name is ordinary, too.

Oumi is a nice name. Oumi Mitsuru.

It's a pretty name.

It reminds me of the sea.

My name uses the character for "sea." You would read it as "blue sea."

I see.

I never said yes or no in the end.

I just stayed silent.

Koichi took my silence as tacit agreement.

At first, we really just ate our lunches in silence.

Koichi's giant lunch box was always packed with side dishes.

He always had rolled omelets and sausages.

Always in an octopus shape.

Maybe it's a rule in the Yamada family.

Crab sausage?

It's like my lunch was made for a kid, right?

I think it's fine.

I have two younger siblings. A brother and a sister.

My brother is in kindergarten, so my lunch is always...

Making octopuses is fine, but crabs seem tricky.

What?

I mean, how would you cut the sausage?

Oh, the shape? That stuff interests you?

Well, kind of.

Look.

Oh, you cut it from both sides.

Yeah, it's pretty easy. I can make it too.

But the sausage has to be red, or it won't look like a crab.

Here.

What?

Eat it.

How was it?

Yeah, pretty normal.

Right?

From that day onward, we slowly started talking a bit more.

And we'd leave school together.

Have you ever gone camping before?

No.

Oh, really?

Our family goes camping every year.

It's really fun. You get to barbecue and go to the beach.

Man, I really want to chomp down on a huge chunk of barbecue.

But we're probably just having hot pot today.

Fried chicken would be nice once in a while.

And we'd walk together in the mornings too.

I'm so tired.

Aren't you sleepy?

Morning practice is tough.

For some reason, Koichi always walks on my left.

It's okay, I'll sleep during class.

It's summer break.

He begged me to help with his summer homework.

Oumi!

Sorry I made you wait.

Let's go.

Oumi, about this...

Hey.

I'm at a loss with question 14 on page 22.

Could you teach me?

For this, you start by gathering these numbers together.

Then, 4x is...

Um... minus...

Are you listening?

Yeah.

Then it's 2x...

We agreed I wouldn't have to do this, and yet...

What a shrewd guy.

Thanks for having me.

Whoa, this is huge!

This is so big! Seriously?

Sometimes, we did homework at my house too.

You have so much expensive stuff.

Stop looking so much.

Whoa, this TV is huge!

It'd be fun to play games on this.

Is this your mom, Oumi?

Yeah.

Wow. She surely looks like you.

- It becomes negative six. - Yeah.

We went to Koichi's house too.

And when that happens...

3x is bigger than negative six.

Micchan! Micchan!

What is it, Minato?

Play with me.

Micchan, let's play!

Come on, this isn't the time to play.

- We're studying. - We want to play superheroes.

We can't play superheroes.

We want to play!

We can't play with you.

Don't interrupt our studies, okay?

Well, in that case...

What're you... Come on.

Geez, seriously, you two.

Don't interrupt Micchan's studies.

Here's some fried chicken.

- Yes, fried chicken! - Fried chicken!

Eat some too, Micchan.

- Okay. - Thanks, Mom.

So good!

But we're always too busy dealing with his younger siblings,

so we don't get any homework done.

From angle AHC...

I could tell that I was changing.

Ever since I was a kid, I was diligently building a wall,

or some kind of barrier around me.

And Koichi tore it down.

Now I get it. That was so easy to understand.

Yeah.

See? Isn't he amazing?

Micchan is amazing, right?

Tore it down?

That's not quite right.

He built a door.

A door without a lock.

But I didn't get anxious about it.

Oh, so that's how you do it?

Then, 3C...

Hey, Oumi! What're you going to do about this?

Your exam target was off!

What the hell? Move, Yamada.

Koichi was always standing in front of my door.

That was enough for me.

As long as he was always with me.

Yet in the blink of an eye, Koichi...

Is it a cold?

Are you feeling chilly?

Don't exaggerate, it was just a sneeze.

You are so overprotective.

Sorry.

Hey.

What, Micchan?

Why are you always on my left, Koichi?

Oh, you noticed?

Yeah.

Obviously, I'm doing it to be your shield.

What?

Well, you never know when a ball might fly over

or when a bike might come crashing in.

And I'm right-handed.

But your right hand is holding an umbrella.

It's okay.

If a ball comes, I'll do this.

And if it's a bike, I'll go, "Wham!"

- You got me wet. - Oh, sorry.

And a ball's never flown over.

In fact, you're the one who always flies over. Twice.

Oh, really?

You threw yourself at me over a dead cicada.

But it's all right.

It was in the blink of an eye.

What the hell?

It was so sudden, it was inevitable.

I couldn't do anything.

Koichi?

Koichi.

Koichi!

Koichi!

In the blink of an eye,

Koichi became a dead body.

♫ We pretend to be fine ♫

Chaos is inevitable.

I want to tell everyone in class and let them help out.

That's absurd! - Still, we'll do it.

The situation is already absurd.

Aren't you scared of him? [This story is completely fiction]
