Chapter 246: End of the Rumors (2)
After the last scheduled session, our practice for the day finally ended. Since tomorrow would be the day for rehearsals as the real thing would start the day after, they let the students use the yard for practicing. Of course they wouldn’t let the students practice until late at night, so in reality we’d only get one or two hours worth of time. Nevertheless, everyone who was serious about the festival appreciated the extra time.
“What should we do after this, Maki? Honestly, I’m tired, should we just go home? It’s friday too…”
“I kinda want to practice a little more. The weather is cooler than usual today, so I can go on a little more.”
Since we would be up against the various members of the sports club, it would be impossible for us to win or even get a high rank for the race. Still, I wanted to do my best at least.
We had been practicing hard, so I wanted to give it my all.
“If you say so, fine. I won’t go easy on you though.”
“I didn’t expect you to. Thanks for going along with my selfishness, Umi.”
“Don’t mention it. Just make some time for me later to make up for the time we’ll spend on practicing, okay?”
“…Do you want to go on a date?”
