At Hiro and Yuuta’s apartment,

“Oi! Yuuta! Breakfast is ready!”

“Yes! *Achoo!* Coming!”

Yuuta goes to have his breakfast. Both are on the dining table when the news on the television starts.

*The television*

‘Apparently, Kuroyoru-sensei has posted on his twitter account that he is going to go on a month long hiatus, so his latest and work, ‘The night without the fall’ will be on a month long hiatus. And this news is causing havoc online among the teenagers. Now moving onto the further news…’

Yuuta takes a brief look at the news. Suddenly the doorbell rings.

*DING DONG*

“Who must have come so early in the morning…” says Hiro as he progresses towards the main door. He opens the door.

“Yahho! Good morning guys!” greets Sena.

“Se-Sena?! What are you doing here this early?” exclaims Hiro.

“Why? Am I not allowed?”

“Um… N-not that… But…”

Just when Yuuta comes in and interrupts.

“Yo! Sena!”

“Yahho! Sensei!” says Sena.

“How are you doing?”

“I’m doing great sensei! How about you?”

“I am doing great!”

Suddenly Hiro interrupts and says,

“Hey! Until when are you guys are planning to stay here and talk? Get inside!”

“Okay!” says Sena and enters.

Sena comes inside and makes herself comfortable.

“Uwa! Sensei! You work so much and still keep the house clean!” says Sena.

“Oh! It’s actually all thanks to Hiro. He usually keeps it clean. Or most likely he does the cleaning work.” replies Yuuta signaling Hiro. Hiro takes the signal and says,

“Y-yeah! I do the cleaning! I clean the house everyday! Haha!”

“But…” says Sena with a frown on her face.

“But…?” repeats Hiro also with a frown on his face.

“I like messy rooms. Clean rooms look very weird.”

Hiro makes a disappointed face and says,

“Ehhhhh?!” and looks down in disappointment.

Yuuta and Sena look at each other and start laughing.

“W-why are you guys laughing?” says Hiro.

“You look cute when you get sad, Sato.” says Sena and continues laughing.

Hiro blushes and says,

“Sena! Don’t toy with me!”

“Nice one Sena!” says Yuuta.

Sena looks over to the dining table and says,

“Oh! So you guys were having breakfast? Continue!” says Sena.

“Did you have your breakfast Sena?” asks Hiro.

“Yep! I did” replies Sena.

“Oh ok!” replies Hiro.

“So, Sena…” says Yuuta.

“Hm?”

“Which one would you prefer? Apple or Orange?” says Yuuta showcasing two bottles of juice.

“I’ll take the orange one!” replies Sena.

“Ok!” says Yuuta as he brings the orange juice.

“Oi! Yuuta! Don’t drink it!” exclaims Hiro.

“What happened Sato?” asks Sena.

Yuuta says,

“It’s nothing-”

“The doctor said he has to refrain from having cold stuff for some days because of-” says Hiro interrupting Yuuta just when-

*ACHOO!* sneezes Yuuta.

“Cold.” continues to Yuuta.

Sena says,

“Well, sensei, is this why you decided to take a break?”

“No. I actually had a lot of workload and pressure on me. And I’ve been working on the series non-stop for the last whole one year. So I thought I deserved a break and so I decided to take a break.” says Yuuta.

“I see…”

“Oi! Don’t drink the juice!” exclaims Hiro again.

“Awww! Please! Just this once!” says Yuuta.

“No! Not a chan-”

*ACHOO!*

“Yuuta! Don’t sneeze on me!”

Sena briefly look at both of them as they both fight over the drink and thinks,

‘Such a good friendship.~ So this is how close friends are…’

Just when, Hiro calls out for Sena and says,

“Sena! Please hold his glass! He’s really troublesome! Sorry about that!”

“Haha! It’s fine Sato!” replies Sena.

They all settle down. And alas! Yuuta doesn’t get to drink juice. Yuuta sits down with pouting face and looks down. Just when, Sena asks,

“Sato…”

“Yes?” says Hiro.

“Um… Are you… um…”

“Yes…”

“By any chance… free today…? I want to go for some shopping… So… um…”

“Yes. I am but…” turns his head around to Yuuta and starts to glare at him.

“HEY HEY! DON’T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!” exclaims Yuuta.

“Yuuta is actually a complete airhead! Can’t even take care of himself. So…” just when Yuuta interrupts him and says,

“Hey! Don’t says such things about me! I’m mature now! See!” gets up and starts flexing his body.

“See this fit body? Yeah! This is me! Yuuta! You guys can safely go to your shopping!” says Yuuta while flexing his body. And bends down and whispers to Hiro,

“This is your chance.”

Hiro looks at Sena. She smiles back at him.

“I guess, it’s okay.” says Hiro.

“So you’re coming?!” asks Sena to Hiro.

“Y-yes.” replies Hiro.

“Let’s go then!!!” exclaims Sena.

“Oh… So… I’ll go get ready!” replies Hiro.

Hiro leaves off to change his clothes in a hurry.

“Sorry sensei! I’ll be borrowing Sato for today.” says Sena to Yuuta.

“Haha! Don’t worry! He’ll just get yell at me all day for watching the television or playing games. So, it’s a win-win for me too!” says Yuuta with a smug on his face.

“Hehe! Naughty sensei!”

“Well… I guess you can say that!” says Yuuta with a smug.

“Haha! But, thank you sensei! For making him come with me. Actually my one friend is busy with her work today, so she can’t make it. So I would’ve been alone. I’m really thankful to you!” says Sena.

“Don’t get so formal! He’s just your pet for today! Hehe!” says Yuuta with a smug on his face. “Well, I know how hard he works all day cleaning my mess up. Helping me out. Working, cooking and stuff. Even I feel he should take a day off. But whenever I tell him to, he just ignores me and continues to work. I’m thankful to you for letting him accompany you.” Says Yuuta with a straight face.

“I see… I promise you to make today his most wonderful day!” says Sena and gives a warm smile to Yuuta.

Yuuta smiles back.

Hiro comes out and says,

“Let’s go Sena?”

“Oh! Sure!~” replies Sena.

Yuuta accompanies them till the main door. Hiro says,

“Have your lunch on time. Don’t play video games too much! Don’t make a mess in the house. And! Don’t drink the juice from the refrigerator! Take your medications on time! And-”

Just when Yuuta interrupts and says,

“Okay okay! I get it! Now get going already! You’ll be late!”

Sena says,

“Well then sensei, take care of yourselves! We’re off!”

Hiro says,

“Yup! Take care and if anything’s the matter, call me right away!”

“Yes! I will.” replies Yuuta.

“We’ll be off~” says Hiro and they leave.

“Take care! Have a great day! Bye bye~” says Yuuta.

He closes the door and goes takes out his video games and starts playing.

Hiro on the other side starts to think,

‘Yuuta did send us for shopping, but… isn’t this more like a… DATE?!’

“Sato!” says Sena while clinging on Hiro’s arm.

“Y-yes?” says Hiro.

“Where do you want to go?”

“Um…I don’t know much places.”

“I see… Then let me take you somewhere fun!”

“Su-sure!” says Hiro and they are off to their so called ‘Date’.
