Children were laughing, clamoring . And people were entering the school chatting, smiling . There was an announcement "Today's annual cultural program will start at 10:30. So, wait till then, thank you ".

"Sato! (Sato is busy in preparation for the event) Sato! Where is Hina?" Inoue came asking about Hina "I don't know, Miss Iumi and Hina both haven't come yet". "What ? are you kidding, the function is about to start and she's not here yet !  what about Takemichi , Akihiko and others?" Inoue was really stressed .
" They are there, the most handsome and popular boys from the whole school showing off their beauty" said Sato, pointing to a place where the girls had surrounded someone. Inoue peeped inside and found them both. Losing her temper, she went closer to them and shouted "You two ! Don't you have any other work to do instead, you're playing lead roles in the play remember ? Now go and memorize your dialogues." Inoue's voice really frightened them both. All those girls also ran away in fear due to Inoue's screaming. " Yes , mam sorry ! I...i just remembered I was I'm going to memorize my dialogues again, see ya " Takemichi left trembling . Inoue glared back at Minamoto angrily.

He came close to her. She panicked. He whispered in her ear "Don't you dare to shout at me like that again, you're nothing to me. So, stop pretending like you are..." Inoue's eyes got overloaded with tears and her lips quavered... After speaking out, he walked away . Meanwhile "Inoue !" Sato called her . She wiped the tears away, turned around and replied smiling " yes?" " Hina , and miss Iumi have arrived. " Sato called her shouting.

Hina was standing beside the blackboard inclining her head. Hiding herself behind Miss, Iumi's back . The moment she noticed her . She ran to her steadily . " Hina where have you been till now ? You are playing the role of the lead character . And you are still late.  Btw why are you hiding yourself " .

" it's because I can't face you , I...I can't sing today " Hina's voice sounded hoarse, it seemed her voice was getting heavier than before . "Hina, what happened to your voice ?" Inoue asked worriedly . "It's because...?" Hina was trying to say something and Miss Iumi said interrupting "It's because last night this silly girl ate ​​3 big scoops  of her favorite chocolate ice cream due to nervousness" . Hina pinched her from the  back  out of pain  miss Iumi screamed . " Now what should we do , how can we find another Marie within 15 minutes  ?" Inoue got worried . Minamoto was listening to them . And suddenly miss Iumi said " don't worry sweetie we have already found her " she chuckled " Really , who is she ?" Inoue 's eyes sparkled out of excitement . Miss Iumi replied " You,  who else ?".

" Wh..What ? me ?" Inoue was surprised , Minamoto's jaw dropped . He felt amazed and blushed at the same time . " But how can I...." Inoue's voice shivered . " Why can't you?" Hina queried ,(Inoue quietly listened to her ). "You know all the dialogues. After all you've written this story, you can even sing better than me, please take my place. And let me dance in your place at the end of the function. That's the only thing I can do perfectly ". Please Inoue... don't say no." Hina held her hand and started requesting her to let her take her place...Inoue's eyes widened, she placed her left hand on Hina's and said smiling "I will try to give my best and I expect the same from you too . Inoue's words really touched Hina . Out of joy she gave her a tight hug . " Someone hug me too, I'm also going to play a tough role which is out of my league" Sato made a face. "Come...! over dramatic" Hina extended her hand towards her and asked her to join them.  Sato jumped on them and they all squeezed each other like best buddies . Minamoto was delighted to see them together. "Hey! What are you three doing, you are looking like some baseball team that's going to represent our country Japan? " Takemichi asked as he stepped inside the classroom. " Shut up !" Sato said aloud " Okay fine , be cool ! I was just kidding " " Btw why you all are so happy ?" asked Takemichi " because Inoue is going to play Marie's role " Hina replied him back " Inoue ?" Takemichi felt dejected because Minamoto is the prince . And now Inoue became his beloved
" but why ?" Takemichi queried " it's because Hina's throat has a sore and she can't sing  " Miss Iumi answered him. "Oo , All the best  " After  wishing good luck to her he left . Inoue  felt bewildered due to his strange act.   Sato understood the point behind his saddened face .  So she said " Inoue you go and get ready for the play  I will talk to him, okay ! " Sato grinned and went after him . " Inoue can you help us ?" Some students in her class c asked " Ah ! Sure , Hina I'll come within  5 mins . You go and memorize your steps " said Inoue " Sure , you should go and don't stress yourself out too much okay " Hina replied . Inoue nodded and left .
