I wasn’t interested, but when they said it was a thank-you for letting them copy my notes around summer, I couldn’t bring myself to decline.

“…n”

The drink flowing into my mouth is surprisingly sweet. It is accompanied by an aroma and a refreshing bitterness. It’s like I’m drinking a matcha parfait.

“Do you like matcha?”

“Well… just kind of.”

I was on guard because Ai and Soyo were teaching each other spell-like customizations, but ordering normally was surprisingly anticlimactic.

There is no particular reason for choosing the matcha frappuccino among the various menus; it just caught my eye.

“Well, it’s quite delicious, isn’t it?”

“That’s right. I also drank it for the first time, and I can understand why people line up for it.”

“Certainly, it feels like there’s always a line everywhere.”

No matter when I looked, it was always crowded, so I just walked by. I never thought I’d actually go into the store with Mutsuki and get takeout.

“It’s nice once in a while.”

“Well… if it’s just once in a while.”

I felt a bit annoyed by the thought that I might seem like someone who has never had it, but since it’s also my first time with Umiri, I can relax and not feel too tense.

“I can’t believe it has cream on top even though it’s this sweet.”

“Thanks to that, it looks glamorous.”

I find it a bit unexpected that Umi seems to be enjoying the taste and appearance in her own way, especially since she hasn’t changed her expression while drinking for a while now.

Speaking of which, we have never eaten out together, so I’m not really sure what you like.

“…I don’t really have the image of Uminari being described as delicious or glamorous.”

“What does it mean?”

“Well… just a feeling.”

It doesn’t seem like Umirin is interested in eating. I won’t say it, but I really have that impression.

“Is there even a situation where we would eat and drink together…?”

I don’t really know my favorite food. I don’t know much about my favorite music genres either. Friends I talk to at school.

“Riki, I am not a robot.”

“…I know.”

She lets out a small, fleeting smile.

It’s not that it lacks humanity. It’s just a little hard to understand. I get that much.

I felt a bit embarrassed to respond any further. I took a small sip from the straw extending from the cup I was holding.

As expected, Umidaki is definitely spreading.

It came back again!

I was moved to tears.

Matcha

A moment until the stray cat comes attacking…

Riki-san looks cool at all times.

Grounded Umitaqi

It’s as if there’s always a feeling of being unsteady, like Umitaki…

Well, well.

It seems that our date with Riki was seen, huh?

This is… a fact.

It seems like they could actually do something like this…

This is… a fact…

It is indeed a fact…

It is indeed a fact, but what could it be? Is it okay to have no climax or conclusion…?

Is this a continuation?

That’s excellent! 👏

Umi-taki is so sweet that it raises doubts about U-chan’s delusions in her mind.

If a stray cat finds me, it will drink Rikkie’s matcha without permission… that’s an indirect kiss, isn’t it?

I feel like this was the official history.

It’s the true history.

Are you also part of the Ranataki faction after writing something like this?!

A thread with calm sea rings.

There are many scenes depicting interactions, so it seems more trustworthy to present them in a straightforward, fact-based manner.

That’s the point where I can’t fully trust Umirisu because they tend to exaggerate their fantasies… This is just about right.

This is what a sea turtle is supposed to be like, just like this.

What do you mean by “continuation”!?

Thank you, I found the log!
