Mai never got a reply. Sad as she was—is, actually—she tries to use reason. This is Naru, after all, the idiot scientist who can't be bothered with anything but research on the paranormal. Of course trivial things such as giving kudos is rare.

For three months, she has forgiven and forgotten.

But just like the year before, a package is delivered to her dorm on the afternoon of her birthday. When she opens it to find reference books, her heart flutters. Oh, Naru. All of them are related to her degree program—did Mori-san mention it to him?

The only unrelated book is the thick English one. Remembering how Naru used to scoff at her poor English, she takes it as a challenge. So just like on her eighteenth birthday, she starts on the English book.
