"A full scholarship to business school?" Akane lets out an impressed whistle. "I'm honestly a little jealous."
"But it's to a university in Osaka," Hikari protests. "I wouldn't be able to help with the cafe!"
Hikaru rolls his eyes. "Sis, the Tako Cafe is literally a truck. If it was that big of a deal, Akane could just drive down to Osaka and run the cafe there."
"But I won't," Akane adds. "Because it's not a big deal. I started the business before I took you in, and I can keep it going without your help. If you turn down this opportunity, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."
"But-"
"Sis, stop acting like you don't want to go. You signed up for the scholarship and took the entrance exams, didn't you?"
"How did- Hikaru, have you been going through my things?!"
"No, but I'm not dumb and neither are you. Whenever someone seems to win a contest they didn't enter, it's always a scam. You didn't ever get suspicious of this scholarship, and you accused me of spying on you just now, so you must have signed up for it."
"Ngh... smartass."
"He's right though," Akane says. "And here's something else: We won't stop being your family just because you grow up and move out."
"You should do what you want to, Sis. If Akane needs help, me and Kaneda have got it covered!"
