Volume 2 Chapter 4.1 - Shimizu-san and the Midterm Exam
Shimizu-san and the Midterm Exam 1
About a week before the midterm exams in the afternoon, we of the Astronomy Club were all gathered in our club room, studying.
This study session came together at the suggestion of Ai-san.
The room was arranged with two long tables placed together in the center, surrounded by five chairs.
Sitting across from me was Shimizu-san, to my right was Seto-san, across Seto-san was Ai-san, and to the right of Ai-san from my point of view was Yousuke-san.
“I can’t do this anymore~”
About ten minutes after we started studying, Ai-san was already showing signs of giving up.
“We’ve only just begun. Hang in there.”
“I am trying for the sake of astronomy. It’s just that I can’t seem to get my engine running.”
“Sigh… What can we do to get your ‘engine’ running?”
Yousuke-san asked gently, sighing yet speaking as if talking to a child.
“…You won’t get mad, right?”
