-I didn't get a single minute of sleep last night.I NEED SLEEP!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAg0ipuBoGxk
Tadashi's face is covered by Natsuko's foot,he gently pushes it away.On the other hand,Natsuko is peacefully sleeping in the bed.Tadashi looks over to an alarm clock on the table showing 8:12 am.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAsbqSvu5ynU
-This girl came into my room saying she couldn't sleep alone in the other room.I thought it would be fine to let her sleep with me.(yawns) I couldn't sleep all night because she kept kicking me.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAXFiyFwq8DN
Tadashi gets up and pulls back the curtains and opens the window.
Sunlight pours into the room as and as it hits Natsuko in the face,she rolls to the other side of the bed. She obviously didn't want to be bothered.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAKwYtlRQ6xl
"(Yawns)Natsukooo...time to wake up."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYvyIq13RMf
He says this as he gently shakes her shoulder..
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0PiF5GYVtm
"Mmm....Later.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAvibmRHrYlX
Saying this sleepily,she pulls the blanket up from her feet and covers her head.

"Oi,Don't be so lazy,it's already late.wake up Natsuko."
151Please respect copyright.PENANANYVXkg2pBC

151Please respect copyright.PENANApVCEGgjei5
"Natsuko,it's not good to sleep late."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA1w2ne1bG45
"Mmmmm.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA05NODRn15w
She babbles something
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbryNML88Ha
"Eh,Natsuko,wake up, I'll buy you anything u want if you're obedient."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAXWL8k5sDuV
"Papa is lying.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA41xqt7FoLi
-This brat knows..
151Please respect copyright.PENANAysH7yNhrfM
Feeling helpless,he turns to a very common strategy-shouting at them until they wake up.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAHKByhr431F
"NATSUKO!!!! WAKE UP!!! WAKE UP."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAvbRBPjVROa
She is startled and immediately wakes up to look around for signs of trouble.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYbFjW0nNvO
"Papa! What happened?.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0xN9mwQlAK
"You woke up at last,huh?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAmAPhMOWhv9

151Please respect copyright.PENANA2nkBUTEJT4
"Papa is very noisy.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAG3UIHsjw5W
"Yeh yeh, I hear that a lot,let's go washup."

151Please respect copyright.PENANAJyoIvEFtdC
"Hey hey,don't say that.Kids of your age are supposed to be energetic."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbeJSFv2aV3
"Papa,I'm not a child.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9b7x8uEJgj
"That's no excuse.Come,let's go."
151Please respect copyright.PENANANSYE1J2P3m
Tadashi could be heard running around and shouting from inside the washroom as Natsuko continues to make a mess everywhere due to her carelessness. As they exit, Tadashi collapses on the floor, a defeated expression on his face.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA2jCxjjCdEz
"That is hard,this is harder than anything I've ever done."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAM8NSs0ptLU

151Please respect copyright.PENANATQRicCBrve
"Papa,I'm hungry.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdFv73UCZVB

"I'm hungry myself too.Let's go, I'll make breakfast."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzoW1JnAuL6

151Please respect copyright.PENANAHiG4CbMJYB

151Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4qDELtjrM
"Mama makes it for us there,mama makes very delicious food.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAU1ig0Y84hh

151Please respect copyright.PENANAognp0tl3Cf
"Nice to hear that,but there's no mama here,so we gotta make it ourselves."
151Please respect copyright.PENANACI15kxt80Z
"Okay papa~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA7aCjDutjty
"Um Natsuko,have you brought anything ..from the future that can make food by itself? Like a magic tablecloth."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbJrn86xrD6
Tadashi points at her little bag saying this which makes her rant saying that she wasn't a blue cat with gadgets to which Tadashi laughs saying that he was just kidding with her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANApGSLef6kmN
They head downstairs to prepare breakfast.Natsuko climbs up to the chair and settles down while he inspects what's inside in his fridge.

"Ok Natsuko,before we go, I'd like to explain some rules to you."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAnyhQ33xEZL

"I thought kids of your age like things that are sweet."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA13IJZS7kvn

They reach school and Yui looks up to see some big school buildings.Tadashi's school was considered one of the best in the state and everything there looked perfectly placed.The school had a big compound with some few big buildings in the center,one which included an old abundant building which was once the main school building.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA02haLj0jW1
"Papa,where are we?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAcZERDpVu8X
"The school! I need to practice for the upcoming interschool sports week!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAOFb4IrNnI7
Tadashi was enthusiastic about it and Natsuko could hear it in his tone.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAmkrIrBOM9X
"Why is it empty then?~"
She looks around but sees none around.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0BrbI2t2bt
"Well,it's a Saturday....The only students here are the ones who have club activities."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAybb1rGxDkB
"Okay.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAV8gvWfiB3P

"Papa always goes to the office.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhSAGCSUZpV
"So I'm just a simple office man then."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAvbodGsw58v
Natsuko tells him that he would always say that he's busy and never made time to play with her...He is disappointed in himself and apologizes to her and promises her to do better in the future.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAOafTE5n3Xh
"Papa,It's okay.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAWZg7jSjarg
As he considers what he has said,Tadashi turns to face her to make up for the future.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAjpWRzabbw4
"Natsuko,let's play when we're back home today."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAUredWHYjzZ

151Please respect copyright.PENANAMY6KOCBWoZ
As they're having a conversation,Tadashi hears someone call out to him.He sees a guy waving at him coming towards them along with a girl.They seem to be his friends.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAx1EgH78BKX
"Papa,who are they?~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAf8vKTxPkJ9
"They're my friends."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAwHGZxjo2X3
He tells Natsuko to remember the rules as his friends approach.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAfRhX2hPCD0
"Akigo,Misaki,good morning."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0QFeTDsYW9
They wish him back.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAuCaENAldvI
Misaki sees Natsuko and asks Tadashi who the little girl was.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAwrkTtercTN
"Yes,who's she?."
Akigo points at her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA0HOPUqZyxY
Natsuko walks closer to them and gracefully introduces herself.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAs7CnJ9nPIU
"Sooo cutee, she's soo adorable."
Misaki says this as both she and Akigo awws in unison.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAPwLuKYeW7J
Misaki tries to make Natsuko comfortable with them by lowering down to her and then she introduces herself.
151Please respect copyright.PENANANP7Qj69N5Y
"Natsuko, hello there I'm Misaki and he's Akigo, we're very close friends of Tadashi, you can call me elder sister and you can call that guy an idiot."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAU6pRWWIoI3
"Hey!! Why am I called an idiot?"
Akigo shouts at Misaki after hearing that.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAnJvDcIdhv2
"I wasn't wrong tho."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAxqJf4iyq16
"Why you!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANABB9wq1Pvcw
Natsuko sees them shouting a lot and now understands why her father frequently shouts.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAmVANbd3IWe
"Tadashi, I thought you wouldn't come." Akigo exclaims.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAXNjD5BLjXg
"You sound like you don't want me here,Akigo."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdgz0YWDb3s
Misaki pinches Tadashi on the arm as he says that.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAJpeYSYsWoc
"Ouch,Misaki,why?" Tadashi cries in pain.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAwSsJydv8CY
"Hey hey,let's not argue here."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAOAFWyR0GoW
"Akigo started it though!"
Tadashi tries to reason with her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAn3EpXkgufq
--oh.I haven't introduced them to you guys,
Aight,let's start with my childhood friend Gushiken Akigo.
When you see him shouting at anyone,don't worry,he's not angry or anything, it's his natural tone.He's usually a fun person excluding the fact that he asks a lot of useless questions.Physically,he's very handsome and matured looking and is very talked about from the girls who like him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAnBGMIy6pEG
"Tadashi, why didn't you tell us you had relatives coming over?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAeNlrkHd6pf
"It was a surprise visit, she just came alone last night."
151Please respect copyright.PENANApFH5WPmWsU
"Alone?!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAgNS4uKRN5j
The idea of a young girl being sent off by herself appears to have annoyed Misaki.He makes up something to calm her down.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAVIxw4tWHsj
-This girl here is Minamoto Misaki.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA6R5lESAsZw
She's also a childhood friend of mine and Akigo.She's quite the hothead and is considered a beauty,she would have been the perfect girl if not for the fact that I feel like she literally loves hitting me and Akigo.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAofc5aWeELy
"Tadashi,you know how happy I am to see you."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAw4bJZ6a9EG
"You're acting like it's been years,we saw each other yesterday."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA3qWjA4qVe7
"Don't say that,a true friendship contains missing each other."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAGEkclNjugS
Akigo taps Tadashi's shoulder and winks while saying that.Tadashi shivers at the sight.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA42DUvxEemP
"Akigo,you sure you're not into that?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAThH2VKXoFE
"Noo,noo I didn't mean that!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAe8m6BHyvRp
Akigo sees Tadashi has a grin on his face after saying that.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAqy7DaPEOXw
"I'm speaking the truth!Misaki,say something!"
Akigo tries to get Misaki to help him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAngoMQikGbU
"What am I even suppose to say here? Aren't you into that?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAJFouFHgLlj
They all seem to be against him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAWTFJ3dJ1C5
"If caring for a friend is considered that,then I shall accept it!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAlqHvWrQUUK
Akigo tries to sound cool while saying that.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAT28L1nZgf0
"That's making it worse,please shut up."
Tadashi and Misaki speak in unison while looking creeped out by him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYRYajbOrO9
"Papa, I'm bored."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhhFTN4pZIq
Akigo and Misaki both turn their gaze at Tadashi after hearing Natsuko calling him papa.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAr8RhHwtFsF
-Oh my!! this girl! Did she forget?!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAExrqyh9s7P
"Oi Tadashi, why is she calling you papa?." Misaki leers at Tadashi.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAHRaeavsf5f
"She likes to play around.Hahaha
,right Natsuko?"
Tadashi laughs strangely as he feels the nervousness take over him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAjI5v3nkmcL
"Yes..Papa's right!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9iHAeWzrYG
-Oi oi oi,are you doing this on purpose??
151Please respect copyright.PENANAvKHtDwYNI4
"She said it again!"
Misaki says it out loud, pointing to Tadashi.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhkJviGyHlj
Akigo is perplexed by what is happening (he is lost)
151Please respect copyright.PENANAN5zEi4jAQ7
"Misaki,you're overreacting."
Tadashi spews anything that comes to his mind at the moment
151Please respect copyright.PENANA4B5yXfC5iS
"What do you mean by that?"
Misaki looks at him, unconvinced by what he had said.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhXdIgv10YK
"Natsuko...she lost her dad soon after she was born,I've been with her a lot of times as I usually go to her place,that's why she calls me that."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAinKfzzkUyf
Misaki seems convinced and then pads Tadashi's shoulder saying she was proud of him while blowing her nose with a tissue, feeling emotional.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAeMOwyQwUyO
-holyyy!! That was close...
151Please respect copyright.PENANA8UyuUQHNp7
According to Akigo,he had already understood that it wasn't a significant issue. Both Tadashi and Misaki express their surprise that he realized this. He tries to convince them that he is quite smart, but they simply ignore him and carry on with their conversation.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA1nWHstsNXR
After a while,Misaki looks at them and sighs after realising that they had brought nothing.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAAGJ1zFkLzH
"Oh,Tadashi,Akigo,did you guys forget to bring your sports kit?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAoUIjwOMp87
They both 'ooh' and Tadashi turns to Akigo asking him where the sports kit were.Akigo tells him that they're at his place.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA5aQxOPb3ky
"Eeh,I entrusted it to you yesterday, you said you'd bring it."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYHbTctBuud
Akigo folds his hands and apologies before running back home to get it.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAjCbqAuwk7F
"Ok ok,I'll wait for you here with Misaki and Natsuko."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzOUtXT1Ovh
Misaki then tells him that she was going out shopping.She would visit his place later and asks him if she could take Natsuko with her.Tadashi thinks it's a great idea since she was a responsible girl and Natsuko would enjoy it with her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA1c9eCWt8Yj
"Natsuko,what do you say?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9sHDGt1LVH
Natsuko says that she only wanted to stay with him and so, Misaki tries a different approach.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAw49ALQqAo1
"Natsuko,let's buy lots of clothes for you."
151Please respect copyright.PENANArCn2RZZRMv
Natsuko doesn't seem to be interested and so misaki tries different approaches but it results in nothing new.She finally asks what Natsuko wants to get.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAItziPd7PFl
"Burger."
Natsuko simply says.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA6SD8Zuqg6C
"Burger?"
Misaki was quite surprised to hear that and tries to confirm what she has just heard.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAhjM8PhSwDL
"Yes,she seems to love burgers more than anything."
Tadashi clears Misaki's question.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAE4ZQYzh87l
"Your elder sister will buy you lots of burgers then."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAneVFJGOFpA
Natsuko runs to Misaki's side as she hears that.Tadashi sighs at the thought of how little it takes to make Natsuko happy.As Misaki is about to leave,Natsuko runs to Tadashi and tells him to bend down to hear her,she whispers something and goes back to Misaki and leaves.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAvl34xoSuC7
As he yawns,he decides to go wash his face to freshen himself.As he dried his face with a towel,he notices the old building and decides to check it since there's none to scold him and Akigo still had time to return.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYB52U1q9pS
He explores the rooms and the things on the ground floor and decides to check the other floors too.He reaches the top floor but doesn't see or feel anything unusual,he now starts to find it boring.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdpgrrtGcSi
"I expected something unusual to happen like in those movies,reality is quite boring."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA7owmbBKWa1
He walks down the steps and feels his phone vibrate.He takes it out to check it but it slips from his grasp and he tries to catch it when he missteps and goes rolling down the stairs and only comes to a halt when he hits a wall.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAI2LVRfkuWD
"Arghhh,what the! Arghhhh!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA4q9CKJJPwW
He tries to walk but gives up as he could hardly stand.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAtFrBIabXXv
"Arghhh this is bad! I can't seem to walk!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANARRV4gfJiP5
-So much for practice,huh?... This is bad,I'm bleeding from my arm and hand.I think I hit the edge of some old staircase,the cuts look bad...
151Please respect copyright.PENANASVWOetnKgC
He soon starts to feel dizzy.
151Please respect copyright.PENANATLUZjjg7gF
"I can't fall unconscious here."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAaNKBMXnc3p
He tries to walk with the support of the wall but falls unconscious.When he comes back to his senses,he hears a girl's worried voice talking to him,but due to his current state,he has trouble comprehending it.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA1M6c83rv53
-what happened? Did I pass out?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAp2WGPi7qfm
"Please don't move a lot,you'll open the wounds.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbFFSjwtCop
He sees a girl tending to his wounds.She was a young woman with black hair that was around shoulder length and the thing that stood out was a scar that covered part of her face. He looks at the bandages on his arms and hands and figures out that she had helped him from bleeding out when he was unconscious.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbUaI6qPzdB
"Umm ...Yamada,thank you for doing this."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAS6UidKrMm3
"It's fine,don't worry about it.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9kjR3mFyUl
She ties the last bandage to his arm.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAp0XboRXVUW
"This will do it, we only have to wait for your friend now."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAix8qpYZFod
Saying this,she closes her first aid kit and sits down next to him,feeling exhausted.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA4ySP48VTyi
"Thank you a lot."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAFrWnEfVXYV
"Like I said..it's fine.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzriLgHOktE
She tells him to stop thanking her since it was nothing special.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAVv4xkCzzY2
As they wait for the Akigo to arrive.They hear Akigo's voice call out his name.They then hear something fall with Akigo screaming and the voice stops.
151Please respect copyright.PENANARYvcODCRzg
"What was that?~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAcSe8NRdMlJ
Natsuko seems concerned and stands up to go check it.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA4KzyWQ54T9
-I'm sure he fell down.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAUIG7qNmdDn
"Nothing,it must be your imagination."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbD7nO4iGtf
"Ok.~"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbwNtbgkaqJ
She sits down again.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA8Npmc2LBpa

-My heart is pounding inside my chest. A girl is holding my hand, massaging my hand,her hand, her hand is so soft and arm...Forget pain,this is straight out of a fairy tale!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAC9pbBQ5LVe
Tadashi tries to speak, but the pressure of the circumstance causes him to stammer. She believes that he is feeling uneasy because of her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAuCX73jaauP
"Umm... Asato,am I making you uncomfortable?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAam7B5F6Chy

"You speak a lot.~"
She softly but quickly says this
151Please respect copyright.PENANARprX6wsnJG
"Well..it's not my fault,after all,a cute girl is holding my hand."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA6PzKJhPwVi

He gently says this.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAsjDYEFvDPt
"Ummm...but I'm not an interesting person or anything."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAJJs1jIuynE

151Please respect copyright.PENANAmKB7D2gVsV
"You,You're a-a- asking me out?"
She stammers and looks down to hide her blushing face.

"Heh? You guys didn't have to do this."
151Please respect copyright.PENANARdp5g832dJ
Tadashi feels like a burden for disturbing their schedule and apologizes.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAmR96a9OV70
"Tadashi you know,It's not everyday that I get to be useful to you,I'm happy I can do this even though I was one of the causes."

"Misaki!! You were worried about me,right?.I'm sorry for making you wor-"

151Please respect copyright.PENANAwG0IjP0o1s
"I was kidding! Just kidding..ghhh"
Akigo taps on her arm and it starts to look like a scene from a wrestling match.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA8HHyt0mzpt
To add fuel to the flame,Tadashi tells her about Akigo falling out of a window from the first floor.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAp11YPMylqc
"Heh! You fell too? That's soo sad."
She tightens the hold.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzROvPgfgfF

151Please respect copyright.PENANAfKg1spWPQ2
"Natsuko, were you worried about me?"
Tadashi thinks that he must have gotten her worried.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1Q30Gavkp
"No papa."
She instantly replies.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAUHCUGNBv3k
"It hurts to hear that."
He looks disappointed and sighs at the reply.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAXut4hXHIlx
"Hehe papa is funny."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAsW7nCcYM3W
After dinner, Misaki and Akigo can be seen building a card castle, which Akigo keeps crashing down by mistake.Tadashi exits the shower and enters his room, where he discovers Natsuko writing something.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAMwHixNVLCj
"Natsuko,what are you writing?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdR1dgLRCYe
She quickly closes the book and hides it behind her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAmkGR9SsTfk
"Hey hey,you can't fool me with that."
He points at the book that she was holding to behind her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAZRNYowKgxn
"Eeeeh, it's Mama's diary."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzPERLHZo4S
As he hears that,he realises that it was the same book she was reading yesterday and then told him about meeting his wife today.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA5CNveAossm
"Wait so this book knows the future?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAIdhYj1XiIl
"Yes! Mama wrote it when she was young."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA99P1o4Vtjq
-by young,she means as a teenager..which means it's the present.
151Please respect copyright.PENANABxP8WWBsmy
"I see....can I read it?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAm0ktImSxIW
"No! It will harm papa's future."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA5NJHa3LLZZ
"But you're here to help me,right?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAi1fxheSCDt
Natsuko tells him that she can only help with things that her father will regret in the future, and that he will have to do the rest on his own without knowing what is about to happen.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAsfBxVIkF0b
"True but you could have at least warned me about today right?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAEQqDrlSpY4
"Natsuko told you to watch out, papa forgets easily."
151Please respect copyright.PENANANvzndbwXP8
"Oh that's what you meant by that.Now I understand why you weren't worried."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAaSvBT7q8Bo
He sighs and says that he only wanted to know who his wife was since he couldn't meet anyone due to his injury but she tells him that he had already met her.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAlW4H4oY6IC
-did she say 'help'?
151Please respect copyright.PENANAqKw0YiQjHK

151Please respect copyright.PENANACYpdoWcd3P
"Natsuko,what is mama's name?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAMlsunCeZBE
"Yui Asato."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAXe9tY6Sxxg
-it's her!!! It's Yamada !!!
151Please respect copyright.PENANAFMM5MnEkPW
Tadashi thinks about her massaging his hand and unconsciously touches the hand.Natsuko looks at him and could see his face red out of embarrassment.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAwVsYQO2fFD
"Papa,what happened?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA8bdPw0jlv9
He snaps back to reality.
"Nothing,nothing!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANA09oRo7ciRq
"Hehe, Papa is in L-O-V-E."
She grins at him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA7HOMLbtcuH
"Hey hey,you're too young to be saying that."
He tries parenting her but seems to be failing at it.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA9lUyUh6ddJ
"Papa L-O-V-E!"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAbnNiBsfMu9
He pursues her playfully while limping a bit while she circles the room yelling that. When Misaki enters, she rubs her knuckles on Tadashi's head and asks him why he's playing rather than relaxing.He apologizes and then,Akigo comes in saying that he couldn't concentrate on his card castle because of their shouting and it fell again.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAwLX1wQeDZD
"Huh? You couldn't do it even if the cards were glued together."
Misaki taunts Akigo
151Please respect copyright.PENANAeAjdE9Qd7l
"Damn you! You don't know how much creativity and time it takes to make one! A single castle takes ages!"
Akigo replies to Misaki's remark
151Please respect copyright.PENANARAaKQLcuDA
"I could make an entire house of cards by the time you put 2 cards up!"
Misaki taunts Akigo again.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAerN0adwwBv
They begin to argue, and Tadashi attempts to calm them down. He then laughs thinking about how much they argued unnecessarily,Akigo and Misaki stop and laugh thinking about it too.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAIMGRxhongW
As night comes,Natsuko and Misaki are seen sleeping,and in the other room,Akigo and Tadashi can be seen talking while in their bed.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAD1K80jfDHB
Akigo is sleeping on the bed while Tadashi sleeps on the futon mattress.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAdr5lmc0iaw
Tadashi is curious about Yui and so he tries to ask Akigo about her thinking he'd have some idea.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAoCFjYeRUeA
"Akigo,can I ask you something?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAk7cbNK5adc

151Please respect copyright.PENANArR3WB9ikgi
"Umm..How do you feel about our classmate,Yamada?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAfRE25eHtke
"You like her?"
Akigo crawls over to the edge of the bed and looks over to him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAM6Bki0hoip
"Noo,I was just asking!"
He waves both his hands while denying it.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAYot4GRV9aP
"Eeh,I thought my friend finally had his eyes set on a nice girl."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAaVkzEC6C6Z
"No,you're expecting too much from me."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAPTi2yOvdUr
"I do think she's nice,maybe she's someone who likes to keep things in her heart,that's why other students have a hard time talking to her...but whatever the reason,she saved my best friend and I can't thank her enough."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAuwaYaQI2bT
"Here you go with the emotional lines again."
151Please respect copyright.PENANANemJvS0ibB
"Haha Tadashi, I'm not kidding."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAnWaVMyVOkZ
"Tell me, Akigo."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAHtXMyVSJD7
He looks up at him.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAoj0x9V6IfY
"Yes,yes,what do you want to hear?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAqoKNXkHfC9
"Do you have anyone you like? And don't tell me the names of those girls you hang out with."
151Please respect copyright.PENANA7mrYjwMCw6
"Well,maybe I have,but I don't think she'd feel the same way."
151Please respect copyright.PENANApNVEFsWmLJ
"Who?"
151Please respect copyright.PENANAynMO4QhVUy
He crawls back to his pillow while yawning.It was as if he didn't want to answer it.
151Please respect copyright.PENANA1zMJk1gCq1
"Well,I'm sleepy,goodnight Tadashi."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAsbV6sKPT1Y
"Good night,Akigo."
151Please respect copyright.PENANAFh2NbfJ5EP
He pulls the anchor to his table lamp making the room go dark.He can be seen staring at the ceiling while thinking about something.
151Please respect copyright.PENANAajRtUIUWJf
-Yui Yamada,hmmm...I'm really curious about her now,she's really mysterious and ...and ..
151Please respect copyright.PENANAzhFJD2fprT
