After school, at the final drop off time, the budding grenades student council officers cut the job off. Faces who checked inside the school and came back to the student council room started a discussion there.

"Who will send Mr. Nanahara today?

The advantages cut out so, and Ami put the lottery up next to his face, which Lailuo was making "Jae-ja".

"I've circled, so I'll reorder today."

That's how he comes. He tries to turn the lottery to the board. On that day, however, the bud grenades reluctantly stopped the act, which was about to become a routine event once a week.

"Bud Grey? What's the matter with you?

Fengya looks down wondering about the bud grenade. Under the straightening gaze of Fengya, Shoutaro looked at Shoutaro with a little awkwardness.

Upon receiving his gaze from the bud grenade, Shotaro exhaled gently with his stomach bracketed.

"I'll send Nanhara for a while."

That's what Shotaro said, not Shotaro, and all the officers turn their gaze toward Shotaro. It was the wind and elegance that first raised the question in Shotaro's statement.

"Oh, why!?

No one expects Shotaro to mention that, etc. Continuing with the wind and grace of his surprise, Shotaro asks why.

"There's a good reason, Shotaro."

It's probably not a bud grenade mistake to feel scared of the smile on his face. Next to the question, Feng Ya asked, "Why! Why!" he shouts loudly.

"Lotus Moon, shut up!

Shotaro slaps Fengya in the head and shuts him up. Meanwhile, Shotaro's gaze remains pointed at him, and he will not deviate. Seeing Shotaro with the thought face, Bud Grey was feeling sorry for him.

"Um, Gejong-kun"

After the two of us decided to take care of the dark spot phobia this morning, Shotaro hoped for this.

"To everyone, will you keep it to yourself?

'... why'

'It's not like I don't rely on everyone... but I figured I'd just ask Gejong-kun because that's what they'd think'

I thought Shotaro was the best fit. But that's not because we all never rely on it. That's not even what I ask everyone to do. Anyone who can help is fine.

If you rely on everyone, you'll be taking turns helping. That's why Shotaro had dared to tell everyone he wanted to hide it.

Thanks to this, Shotaro is having trouble excusing himself now. Shotaro has been questioned by Shotaro because of more than 90% of the bud grenades. So Shotaro raised his voice in place of Shotaro, who was lost in reply.

"Oh, you know what!

When the bud grenade opens his mouth, his gaze quickly turns to the bud grenade. Shotaro looked just a little surprised.

"The..., Kei has to trick me at the launch party of the club next time"

Somehow mouths the story that comes to mind. That doesn't mean complete bullshit, but in fact Kei seems to show off his tricks a lot at gatherings like that.

I remember Shotaro showing off his tricks at Eve's party before, and Shotaro lied like that to Rushu.

"That's why I need you to give me a little help."

Fixing the actual likely reason, the bud grenade adds a deluded laugh. Then Shotaro got on with such a bud grenade excuse too.

"You're supposed to stop by Nanhara's house on your way home, so you'd better send it to me later."

Shotaro inserts his cough and turns his voice back on, saying it out calmly. Speaking out to Lailuo, in his favor, and also to Fengya, "Are you convinced," Shotaro pushed up the bridge of glasses.

"Hmmm...... yes"

However, he stared alternately at Shotaro and the bud grenade to his surprise, and eventually shrugged his shoulder with a big sigh.

"Okay. Shotaro will do five times the job, so I won't pursue it any further."

Say something tough with a gentle voice. Shotaro said, "Ha!?" and absurd his voice, but soon came to his advantage and came to his senses.

"I think I can..."

Bud grenades were smiling back bitterly at the wind they said in a obstinate manner.

After being stuffy, Shotaro and I walk home. Until the end, Fengya said, "Shotaro, it's sloppy!" He was screaming.

"Gejong, I'm sorry"

Looking up at Shotaro, who looked tired, Bud Grey apologizes with his brow lowered with regret. I was going to come up with a good excuse, but it still bothered Shotaro.

"Nothing... it's something I've already been ready for since I took it on"

While Shotaro says so, he sighs imagining a double sentence for work that starts tomorrow. "I'm sorry," Bud Grey apologized again after seeing Shotaro like that.

"I'll help you with the increase."

"You don't have to do anything because I think you're going to get extra work."

Shotaro narrows his eyes with a straight forward look.

Maybe I should have told the truth, without hiding it after all. It's easy to say because it's not an obnoxious thing.

But when you think about the later, if you can stay without telling me, it's better not to talk.

Seeing the sprouts worried about that, Shotaro sighed loudly again.

"You're not bad.... I was also in favor of hiding opinions"

Shotaro speaks up to erase the sprouts troubles. Shotaro's sense of responsibility is a little soothing, if he agrees.

"If things don't work out today, we're going back to blank tomorrow. You'd better not speak poorly at this stage."

Shotaro tilts his face slightly and drops his gaze on the bud grenade. Shotaro is right, if I try today and fail, I have to think of another proposal. And I knew at this stage how much trouble I would cause Shotaro when I failed.

"If it doesn't work... sorry"

Bud Grey apologizes first. Hearing a bitterly mixed voice of bud grenades, Shotaro quietly expressed his doubts.

"... why, did you try to overcome it?

I've never been over it if I could overcome it. However, the dark spot phobia was' insurmountable 'for budding grenades. So I still don't like it. It was a natural question to want to overcome it further now.

Hearing Shotaro's question, the bud grenade cheeks. Bud Grey talked about the TV news he saw yesterday as Kei.

"If I go to America and get trapped in a dark place... no one can help me."

But that's just an incentive to 'want to overcome'. The root part was set for the day Shotaro helped me.

"For me, the dark room was a place where no one could help me."

No one gets a voice. Nobody comes to help me. The dark room for bud grenades was a scary lonely world.

"But... now I feel a little bit like I'm not."

At that time, Shotaro found me a bud grenade when I was trapped by a Fengya fan. The bud grenade's voice reached Shotaro properly.

Even on the rainy day before the sports festival, Shotaro stayed by the bud grenade in the dim room. Advantage came to help me even when the room darkened on my school trip.

"I thought I might be able to overcome it now that someone's helping me."

Voices are reaching someone even in the dark room. Someone will surely come and help. I felt like I could accept a dark room if I thought so.

Still, I was afraid to try it alone, and I wanted someone to be there to practice overcoming it.

"Gejong-kun said he can't support you... but Gejong-kun's presence is too much support."

Shotaro takes a short early walk and goes in front of Shotaro. About five steps ahead of Shotaro, Shotaro looked back at Shotaro.

"So... thanks for your cooperation"

Bud grenades again, please. I turned my serious feelings to Shotaro and bowed my head.

Then Shotaro made a pessimistic noise and slapped Shotaro on the head of the sprouts. There is no pain at all at the end of the sound. Shotaro, however, did not know the intent of his actions, and the bud grenade raised his face.

"Thank you, say it after you succeed.... Let's go."

Shotaro says in a small voice, going at the tip of the bud grenade.

Cold and unspoken words. Yet the words were packed with a lot of clumsy kindness, and Bud Grey smiled and walked next to Shotaro.
