[3rd Person POV]

Another morning came and the start of another week of school. Walking down the road leading towards Hanajo is the brown haired girl herself, Kasumi Toyama smiling happily whilst carrying her guitar, which was now inside of it's very own guitar case.

"Are you really that happy?" said a voice which belonged to Arisa Ichigaya.

"It's really exciting!!" Kasumi said in her usual tone of excitement. "Let's do our best at the cultural festival!"

"Huh? And What's that got to do with me?" The blonde asked, stoically.

"You should perform with me Arisa."

"No thanks."

"What about the castanets?" Kasumi asked, but before Arisa could answer. The brunette runs off as she noticed a familiar face up ahead. "Rimi-rin!!"

It was of course her recently recruited band member, Rimi Ushigome. The girl mentioned smiled after seeing Kasumi. But only for a moment her smile fades as she braces for impact towards Kasumi's friendly hug.

"Look, Look! I bought a new case!" said the brunette as she shows off her guitar case to Rimi. Rimi in return, responded with a 'Wow' towards Kasumi's brand new guitar case. "Rii-chan-senpai ordered it for me!"

"It does have an odd shape, doesn't it?" Rimi pointed out. "How's the fit?"

"Perfect!"

"Now you won't have to leave it at Arisa-chan's house everyday." Rimi said, to which the blonde heard and felt somewhat disappointed.

"What?" Arisa said, to which the two girls looked at her. "Huh?"

"Don't worry I'll still come over." Kasumi assured the girl whilst showing a smile.

"Don't!!" Arisa exclaimed in disagreement. Though, one could tell that she's obviously lying.

"...Good morning..." A voice of a familiar male greeted. The three turned and saw their friend Katsuhiko, who still has his sleepy face.

"Good morning Katsuhiko-chan!" Kasumi greeted the boy.

"Natsuki-san, Good morning." Rimi greeted the same.

"Good morning... again..." Katsuhiko said, raising a palm to greet whilst yawning.

"What have you been up to last night?" Arisa asked him in curiosity. "Don't tell me you've been working all day at the bakery even through weekends?"

"That... and I was more or less having a lament yesterday..." The male answered, rubbing his eyelids to fight the sleep. "...and that recent concert at space..." He added.

"Eh? What were you sad about, Natsuki-san?" Rimi asked. Though upon hearing the previous statement and the question coming from Rimi. Arisa had the slightest clue as to know what the reason is for the male's lamenting as she was showing a rather grimaced expression.

"You... were lamenting over that, weren't you?" The blonde said, whilst crossing her two arms. "Seriously Katsuhiko, you know you can still re-watch that live stream right?"

Katsuhiko shot his gaze up to her as he was now showing an expression of disbelief. "You don't understand! Re-watching a live stream means I can't communicate with them!" He said as he held his head with his two hands. "And whenever I do that, I felt envious to those people who actually communicated with them... Thus, it makes me feel like I'm being left out... "

Kasumi then comes up to him. Patting the male on the back to reassure him. "Don't worry Katsuhiko-chan. There's still a next time right?"

"I suppose..." He said, letting out an exasperated sigh afterwards. "Looks like I will have to wait for a number of days to redeem myself..."

"I really thought that you were normal..." Arisa said, placing a hand over her face as if to show that she was disappointed. "Why am I the only normal person here..?"

Katsuhiko narrowed his eyes at her upon hearing her statement. He then turns towards to Rimi. "Ushigome-san. Ichigaya-san thinks that you are weird as well." He said. Which caused Rimi and Arisa to flinch.

"E- Eh!?" Rimi said, a tinge of red appeared on her face in embarrassment.

"O- Oi! T- That's..! I didn't meant to say that, Idiot!!" Arisa retorted, whilst seeing the male himself letting out a light-hearted laughter.
