Script[]
- Namiko: Rikka, come with us for a sec. To the vending machine.
- Rikka: Huh?
- Hass: 'Tis an interrogation!
- Rikka: W-whoa, wait--!
- Namiko: Now now, this might be something that's hard to talk about in the classroom, you know.
- Rikka: So... what is it?
- Hass: Don't "what is it?" us! Namiko said she saw you last night, is that right?
- Rikka: Oh... that.
- Hass: Right. Last night. What were you doing with Hibiki Yuuta-kun?
- Namiko: C'mon c'mon, I'll buy you a bottle o' MATCH, so out with it.
- Rikka: I can't drink carbonated stuff though... Wait, I mean, it's not like I'm hiding anything, you know?
- Namiko: Then hurry and spit it out! C'mon, c'mon, c'mon-c'mon-c'mon-c'mon--
- Rikka: Gah--! So yesterday... Hibiki-kun collapsed in front of my place, gone amnesiac, then I brought him to the hospital. That's about it.
- Namiko and Hass: Amnesia!?
- Rikka: It's not that big of a deal, really.
- Namiko and Hass: That's a damn big deal, dammit!
- Namiko: I mean, amnesia? Is that for real?
- Hass: Dayum, dude's in deep doo-doo...
- Rikka: Looks like it's true though. The amnesia stuff.
- Namiko: Oh, gimme a break... isn't it strange that he's collapsed in front of Rikka's house in the first place?
- Hass: Hear, hear. How'd this happen with just Hibiki and Rikka involved?
- Rikka: Uhh... It's not strange though?
- Namiko: Hmm... you're definitely hiding something.
- Hass: Like, what, you two went home together?
- Namiko: For real!?
- Rikka: None of that. For real.
- Namiko: Then what's going on here?
- Rikka: Like, he randomly turned up at my place and said some stuff... what was that about again...?
- Namiko and Hass: You suck at lying or what!?
- Namiko: And wait, you two aren't dating or anything, right?
- Rikka: That's not it! Really!
- Namiko: Mm-hm, I see.
- Hass: Thank goodness... As if a guy like Hibiki would make moves on Rikka-san here. That's just ridiculous.
- Namiko: Yeah, this is the Rikka-san we're talkin' about, you know.
- Hass: The Rikka-san who'd once been a hair model for a parlor in Aoyama, you know!
- Namiko: The Rikka-san who'd once bought an Aroma Diffuser from Francfranc, you know!
- Rikka: Hey, stop making it sound like I do those stuff all the time.
- Namiko: Right then, Rikka-san... What did you have for today's breakfast?
- Rikka: This morning? Well... fruit granola and smoothie. The green stuff.
- Namiko and Hass: There y'go~~
- Rikka: Well excuse me! My mom just bought way too much, so I had to finish them!
- Namiko: So you're trying to live the Terrace House lifestyle now, eh~~
- Hass: Now that's the Rikka-san who'd once been mistaken for a college student at Omotesando!
- Namiko: You might not be aware, Rikka-san, but it's like you're trying too hard to act like an adult, yeah?
- Rikka: What'd you mean I'm trying too hard--
- Namiko: Now wait... Were you that close friends with Hibiki?
- Rikka: Nope, not at all. Haven't talked with him much...
- Namiko: Right.
- Rikka: There's that time, during the ball game rally before summer...
- Namiko: Mm-hm.
- Rikka: I went back to the classroom during break time, and it was just me with Hibiki-kun there...
- Namiko: Mm-hm.
- Rikka: That's when I talked with him a for bit.
- Namiko: Ooh... Wait, what's that about?
- Rikka: I mean, other than that time, I haven't talked with Hibiki-kun much at all.
- Namiko and Hass: R-right...
- Namiko: That sounds... pretty bland.
- Hass: Well, that's Hibiki for ya. Ain't got much special aside from that redness of his hair.
- Namiko: Yup. So red.
- Rikka: Not like it matters how red it is...
- Namiko: Really, if I was a boy, I'd probably not go well with Rikka at all.
- Hass: Me too. A 15-year-old who eats granola and eggs benedict for breakfast is way too much for me to handle.
- Rikka: I don't remember saying I ate any eggs benidict though...
- Namiko: If I'm gonna go with someone from our class, it's gotta be... Akane, yeah?
- Hass: Hear, hear! Super cute, but never around the boys. If I was a boy, I'mma nab her!
- Rikka: Gah... I actually get where you're coming from...
- Namiko: Rikka-san here, on the other hand... She's like a girl who'd get along better with the working adults, yeah? That's no good...
- Rikka: Now you're just stereotyping!
- Hass: Okay then, Rikka... How much did those shoes of yours cost?
- Rikka: These? Let's see... 18,000 yen?
- Hass: Damn, this is why you're--
- Rikka: That's not it! My grandpa bought them for me when I got into high school!
- Namiko: Yeah, yeah~~
- Hass: Gotta have high standards, eh~~
- Namiko: So high~~
- Rikka: I can't help it when the stuff just come naturally, you know!
- Hass: That's our Rikka-san for ya~~
- Rikka: Enough already, jeez...
