In the swimming club, all members make a pledge: "I will Reach to the Summit, till then, my Soul will be full filled once again", or something like that.
Aiko Yamada is a 3rd year at Kentaru High School, she has a talent for both music and swimm...
A breeze from the autumn season came along, which made it's way across Okayama. All of the cherry blossoms has been put to slumber, as all the leaves has fallen off. Aiko is accompanied by a fellow underclassmen, whose true talent is 'melodies on clarinet'.
Chinatsu Nakahara, a second year at Kentaru High School who has been playing the clarinet since middle school in a orchestra group. Now, she accompanies Aiko before school ended, not only practicing-but wanting to hear Aiko's guitar playing again and again. Aiko, sitting next to Chinatsu as she's playing her clarinet. The music room is filled with stools-to-music stands and posters with all of the most popular musicians, back when Mozart was around. A giant grand piano stand near the corner of the room, where the window shined upon it. The room is made for new talented creators to start exploring the world of music.
"Hey Aiko-senpai, would you like to join a musical duet with me?" Chinatsu asked Aiko.
"Yeah sure, let me get my guitar." Aiko replied back.
Aiko walks towards the end of the classroom, she placed her guitar case behind a storage cabinet. She grabbed the case and placed it on the floor. Chinatsu came over to watch Aiko unzip her guitar case, which revealed a beautifully polished-electric acoustic guitar. Which still amazes Chinatsu every single time. Before Chinatsu can say something to Aiko, a student dashed into the music room. A girl with a "nerdy" appearance was another friend of Aiko's, who she met on the first day of the Music Club.
Back then, after successfully joining the swimming club, Aiko--a first year, was bold enough to join the music club. Aiko was granted her own guitar from her father, as a present on her 15th birthday. Since then, near the end of middle school, she self-taught herself how to play the guitar. Aiko with her large guitar case, entered the music room. A girl came over and greet Aiko.
"Hi there! Want to join the music club?" the girl asked Aiko.
Aiko was timid meeting new people. Suddenly, the girl felt a shook at that moment.
"Ack! I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Kasumi Satou, and I'm a pianist in the music club. If you hear music from the piano from the end of the hallway, that's probably me."
Aiko gave out a chuckle.
"Haha, my name is Aiko Yamada, and I'm an amateur musician." Aiko replied back to Kasumi.
"Nice meeting you, Aiko! It seems you're carrying a guitar, our music teacher can help you learn how to play. Are you willing to join?"
Aiko nodded her head. At the same time, she is nervous seeing many other talented students playing their instruments. Most of them were upperclassmen.
"Say, can I have a peek at your instrument?" Kasumi asked Aiko.
Aiko nodded, she placed her guitar case on the floor. Kasumi leaned down to Aiko's shoulder, and watched her unzipped the case. A brand new-gently polished electric acoustic guitar was revealed. Aiko looked back, to see Kasumi's face in astound. The two has known each other since, after Aiko joined the club.
— "We lost...the flash drive for the student...photos for the seniors! The worst part is...the deadline is coming up too!" Cried out Kasumi while catching her breath.
Aiko was uninformed from her friend's traumatic alert. The two walks over to Kasumi. Chinatsu tries to comfort Kasumi, while she's still out of breath and is fairly sweaty.
"Aiko, our senior pictures might not be in the school's yearbook! The other club members are looking for the hard drive. I really want my legacy to be on this school's yearbook." said Kasumi.
Aiko turned to Kasumi.
"Everything is going to be fine, there should be a backup copy of the photos. Like it was saved on a computer, right?" Aiko asked Kasumi in a low-key tone.
Kasumi paused for a second.
"Huh, possibly some of the editors at the club saved it on one of the computers. I have to look into that!" Kasumi spouted out.
Aiko and Chinatsu looked at each other with a grin, as Kasumi was feeling less anxious.
"Hey Aiko, you were in the middle of taking your guitar out. How about all three of us play a trio, while there's still time." Kasumi asked Aiko.
"Yeah, lets all play as musical trio!" Chinatsu cheered out.
Aiko gave out a smirk at the two. She pulled out her guitar from its case.

Kasumi headed towards to grand piano, while Chinatsu grabbed her clarinet. Just before lunch ended, the three performed as a trio. Possibly a few students can hear their music from afar as well?
