It had been one week since the National Mock Exam, and we received our results. Upon seeing my score, I managed to both exceed and subceed my expectations.

**Third Nationally... Impressive, Y/N. But if I didn't fall asleep, I bet I was on course to actually achieve the number one spot. Well, no point wondering, I've got somewhere to be...**

The Quintuplets' father, Maruo, had contacted me and requested to meet me at a nearby park to discuss the results, or so I assumed. I left my house and made my way over to the park to meet their father, but instead, I was met by Takeda Yuusuke.

Y/N: Takeda? I don't know why, but I'm not surprised you're here, too.

He was on a swing set looking like a little kid. I personally also enjoyed swingsets, so I got on the one next to him.

Takeda: "Impressive." That's the only way to describe it, yeah?

**Why does he end his sentences with, "yeah"?**

Takeda: I came into the National Mock Examination with the intention to defeat you even if you managed to place in the top ten rankings. So eighth place is a most favorable ranking to me.

**He placed eighth? That's genuinely impressive. Being the top in class at our school would be one thing. But across the entire nation, top 100 is already insane.**

Y/N: You placed eighth? I admit I underestimated you. Good work.

Takeda: But to think that you would go even higher than that, yeah?

Y/N: I'm not surprised you know.

Takeda: Who doesn't? The results are public information. Congratulations on placing third.

Y/N: Finally willing to admit that me and the Quintuplets are an unbeatable team?

He completely changed the subject after that.

Takeda: The school trip is coming up soon-

Y/N: Wait, wait, wait a second... Why am I on the swings with you on a day like this?

I jumped off the swingset.

Takeda: Yesterday's enemy is today's friend. This might be what youth is all about, yeah?

Y/N: I don't know..? I'm leaving, though.

Takeda got up off the swingset.

Takeda: Now, now, don't be in such a hurry. Did you forget we were called here?

A familiar-looking car pulled up and the door opened.

Takeda: See? There he is.

Maruo Nakano got out of the car and approached us.

Maruo: My apologies for making you wait.

We sat down on some of the park benches. Seeing their father at a park was completely unfitting for his character, but he was still as intimidating as ever.

Maruo: To begin, I would like to congratulate you on placing eighth, Takeda-kun. I'm sure your father is quite proud to have such a capable son. I heard that you are aiming to become a physician. What do you think about coming to my hospital? Having someone as exceptional as you-

Takeda: I am deeply sorry. While your offer is an incredible honor, I would like to spend some more time thinking about my future.

Maruo: I see. I hope to hear a favorable reply.

**The hell did he even call me here for? This conversation has absolutely nothing to do with me...**

Maruo: Y/N.
