The next day…

Her Mom notices a note left on the table..
Mom,

Hihara-sempai and Yunoki-sempai will help
Me plan my birthday party...

Kahoko
Mom: (sigh) Kahoko…
At school… Hino went to practice so that she can go with Yunoki and Hihara after class… To her surprise… she saw Len again inside the room…
For her not to be noticed, she slightly sneaks to see what Len's doing…
Hino: Len, what's up with you?
Len was about to play when suddenly…
Hihara: KAHO-CHAN!
Hino: Hihara-senpai… (sigh)
Hihara: Eh? What's with the sneaking? Is there someone inside?
Hino: (panic) N..Nothing really…
Len heard their conversation and went out…
Hihara: Oh... Tsukimori… Ohayou...
Len: Ohayou...
Hino looks at Len…
Len: What's with the look?
Hino: Nothing Nothing… (turns away)
Hihara: You're sneaking at Tsukimori?
Len: Nani?
Hihara: I just saw…
Hino: Oh nothing nothing… Hihara-senpai let's go.. . Yunoki-sempai is waiting….
Hihara: EH? But I haven't told…
Hino: See you later Len… (drags Hihara)
Hino and Hihara left to look for Yunoki…
Len: (smiles)
Len went back to the room to practice…
Hino: That was close! (exhausted)
Hihara: What's that all about?
Hino: I was trying to see what Len was doing… then you suddenly called me… (pissed)
Hihara: oh.. Gomen… but… why didn't you just try and ask him… I'm sure he'll answer you…
Hino: Iie.. it's okay… (sad)
While the two are talking, Yunoki finally came…
Yunoki: Konnichiwa…
Hihara: Konnichiwa Yunoki-san…
Yunoki: What's wrong with Hino? (pats Hino's head)
Hino: Nothing.. I'm fine..
Yunoki: Want a hug? (smiles)
Hihara: Yunoki!
Yunoki: What? I'm asking her if she wants a friendly hug… Do you want one Hihara?
Hihara: No thanks…
Yunoki: Are you sure? It's free…
Hihara: No way…
Hino: (laughs) you guys…
Yunoki: Okay… Let's plan your party..
Hihara: Yeah… Let's go!!
So the three started planning Hino's birthday party… They went to the park and sat down on the green grass…
Hihara: (sigh) relaxation at last…
Hino: (sits down beside Hihara) Yeah…
Yunoki: Let's start then…
Hino: Hai!
Hihara: OK.. let's start with this one…
The Three enjoyed planning… As if they are just sitting on the grass relaxing… relaxing…
Yunoki: I guess that's all…
Hihara: The cake?!
Yunoki: Hmmm.. we've almost forgot about that…
Hihara: I'll make one!!
Yunoki: Really?
Hihara: I can cook you know…
Yunoki: Thanks for suggesting, but I think we should just buy one? Right Kahoko?
Hino: (chuckles) hehe.. maybe you're right…
Hihara: Hey!
Hino: Arigatou… Yunoki-sempai… Hihara-senpai…
Hihara: (pats Hino's head) it's nothing…
Yunoki: (smiles)
After that relaxing day… Hino went home…
Hino: I'm home…
Mom: Oh welcome back Kaho-chan… Have you eaten dinner already?
Hino: yes.. with Yunoki and Hihara-sempai…
Mom: Speaking of that, Len came here earlier looking for you…
Hino: Len-kun?
Mom: Yeah, he told me to give this note to you…
Hino: Thanks mom…
Hino took the letter and went to her room…
Kahoko,
Sorry for not talking to you these days…
I'm just busy doing something…
I hope you'll understand… You'll know it soon enough…

Hino: I wonder what that something is? I hope its not something that will upset me…
