Morning-- well, it was already afternoon.

I’d just woken up, and was absently washing my face in the bathroom.

I finished washing my face with lukewarm water, and wiped it with an organic towel Meme sent me from France.

 

 

Minato; ….Aaah. Refreshing.

 

As I met my own eyes in the mirror for the first time, I noticed black ink spattered here and there.

 

Minato; Aw~ Kasuka poured ink out in the bathroom again.

 

Need a towel… but, I don’t want it to get dirty. I took out a high quality wet wipe I got from a modeling job, and wiped the mirror with it.

 

Minato; Oh~, it came off. --Yep, all clean ♪

 

This is the beginning of one of many normal, peaceful days.

• ☆━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━☆

I got to school after third period, during the break, and when I walked into the classroom Shion-chan and Shigure were gathered by Yanagi’s desk.

...Looks like they’re reading a book.

 

Minato; Good morning~

 

Yanagi; Morning, Minato.

 

Shigure; You’re late.

 

Minato; Then, good late morning~

 

Shinya; Ahaha, good late morning, Minato-kun.

 

Minato; You look like you’re having fun, what are you talking about?

 

Yanagi; I’m thinking of growing something new in the greenhouse.

 

Minato; Hm~ nice. The strawberries you grew were delicious. What’s that book?

 

Yanagi; It’s a catalog of plants you can cultivate in a greenhouse.

 

Minato; Show me too, me too~

 

I peered into the thick catalogue laying open on Yanagi’s desk--

 

Minato; Hm? What’s this “request form”?

 

Yanagi; I was asking my sweeties their opinions, then decided to ask the first years on a whim, and I received this request sheet from an oddly shaken Touji.

 

Minato; Hm~

 

The paper had “name” and “what you want grown next” written on it.

 

Minato; ...Senri said, “Something high quality like melon”, Yuma said, “If I can eat it, I’ll be happy with anything”, and Touji said… Huh? “What would an exquisitely beautiful girl be happy to receive?” -is what he wrote.

 

Yanagi; Haha. He answered a question with a question, huh?

 

Minato; All the first years are so cute.

 

Yanagi; If you have a request, you can write it anywhere there’s space. I’ll go over it with my sweeties later.

 

Minato; Wow~ You’re really motivated, Yanagi.

 

Yanagi; Rather than motivation… in gardening, it’s best not to waste too much time thinking in vain about it. If you raise flowers with love, they’ll respond in kind.

 

Shinya; That’s really nice that you raise plants as a hobby, Yanagi-kun… Maybe I should pick something up too? There’s research showing that people who can immerse themselves in their hobbies are less stressed.

 

Minato; But Shin-chan, aren’t you a doctor?

 

Shinya; Yeah… I don’t know if that’s a hobby, though? I wish I had something more like Yanagi-kun has, something relaxing that makes me think “this is a perfect fit for me”.

 

Minato; I see~

 

Shinya; Do you have something you’ve been into lately, Minato-kun?

 

Minato; (Something I’m into…)

 

In the morning, I wake up. I wipe the ink off the mirror. I come to school and chat with everyone like this. After school, I hang out with Yanagi-kun or some girls and have a nap. Sometimes I have modeling work. In the evening, I absentmindedly listen to Kasuka’s incantations or watch him write talismans, and sometimes we chat.

Scenes of my daily life drifted through my head.

 

Minato; --Yeah ♪ Everything is fun.

 

Shinya; Everything...?

 

Minato; Yeah. I’m having fun right now--

 

Chizuru; Aha.

 

Minato; …?

 

I suddenly heard someone laughing. I thought Chizu wanted to join the conversation, but he was looking at me with a sort of mean face.

 

Chizuru; “Everything is fun”- wouldn’t that imply nothing is fun?

 

Minato; Um……. Huh?

 

Yanagi; Did you come to pick a fight?

 

Chizuru; Although I’m more interested in water fleas than in what you care to grow in the green house, for Jin-san’s sake, I simply wanted to caution you against allowing any pest outbreaks. Excuse me.

 

Chizu abruptly turned his face away and left the classroom.

 

Yanagi; Fufu. Chizuru’s hobby is Jin-san, huh.

 

Minato; A hobby…
