After chatting with the two for a while longer, Kobayashi Tomoaki returned to Shinchosha.
anwhile, Yukinoshita Shizuku had taken the day off school. Instead of attending classes, she stayed at the hospital to accompany Tsushima Kagami.
During the day, the two took a walk near the hospital, then sat and chatted for a while in Mrs. Ijichi's ward.
Finally, as the setting sun was about to dip below the horizon, they ate dinner at the hospital cafeteria before returning to their own ward.
At this mont, Tsushima Kagami was lying on the bed reading a manga that he had asked Yukinoshita Shizuku to bring. Shizuku, sitting at the head of the bed, took out an apple that Kobayashi Tomoaki had brought earlier as a get-well gift and began peeling it with a fruit knife.
After peeling it, she cut the apple into small pieces before bringing them over to Tsushima Kagami.
"Eat so apple."
Lying on the bed and reading his manga, Tsushima Kagami shook his head.
"I won't eat. You eat it yourself."
Yukinoshita Shizuku glanced at Tsushima Kagami, who hadn't even lifted his head and was completely focused on the manga. She pursed her lips in disdain, then picked up a toothpick, skewered a piece of fruit, and brought it to his mouth.
Tsushima Kagami saw the apple reaching his lips out of the corner of his eye. Only then did he take a bite and begin to chew.
Just like that, Yukinoshita Shizuku skewered another piece and handed it over.
Tsushima Kagami took another bite.
During this ti, she had truly discovered just how lazy a person Tsushima Kagami was.
It wasn't that he didn't like fruit, but he simply refused to get his hands dirty. Unless you prepared everything and brought it right to his mouth, he basically wouldn't take the initiative to eat it.
This person really had a lot of bad habits.
Just as Yukinoshita Shizuku was feeding Tsushima Kagami, the room door suddenly opened.
"Ahaha, Kagami-kun, we all ca to see you."
The arrivals were Tsukuyomi Komoe and Douraku Utage. Behind them followed Shimizu Nayotake, the trio from the Manga Research Club including Sayuri, Hiratsuka Shizuka, and Yamada Kenta...
As soon as they entered, they saw Yukinoshita Shizuku coaxing Tsushima Kagami to eat the last piece of apple. Machida Sonoko suddenly spoke up from the crowd.
"Ara, did we co at a bad ti?"
Tsukuyomi Komoe said with a smile, "Ara, this is Student Yukinoshita Shizuku. She is Kagami-kun's sister."
After explaining, she led everyone inside.
The group exchanged greetings with Yukinoshita Shizuku.
At this point, Tsushima Kagami moved the manga aside and looked at the group of people walking in from the doorway.
"Why did you guys co?"
Sayuri: "We saw that Kagami-kun didn't co to the club today and didn't ntion anything beforehand, so we went to ask Tsukuyomi-sensei from your class about the situation. It just so happened she was coming to the hospital, so she brought us along."
Hiratsuka Shizuka: "Ara, I just happened to see the two teachers leading so many students on my way back. I asked and found out they were coming to the hospital to visit you, so I tagged along."
Shimizu Nayotake stood beside Tsukuyomi Komoe, remaining silent as usual.
Yamada Kenta said with a smile, "I saw you didn't co to school today, so I thought about asking Tsukuyomi-sensei. I didn't expect Student Shimizu to have already gone to ask ahead of ti out of concern for you."
Tsushima Kagami only now noticed there was another man present.
"Umm, who are you?"
Yamada Kenta pointed at himself, looking like he was about to have a breakdown and cry.
"I'm Yamada Kenta! You comforted just a few days ago! I thought we were already friends!"
"Ah, sorry Kenta, I didn't recognize you."
"Aren't you a blonde? Why did your hair turn black?"
Tsushima Kagami finally superimposed this person's appearance onto the Yamada Kenta from a few days ago.
"I had a great awakening and voluntarily dyed my hair back at ho."
"Is that so? Well, thank you for coming to visit ."
After Tsushima Kagami finished speaking, Yamada Kenta hurriedly leaned in close to him and spoke mysteriously.
"Kagami-kun, lying in the hospital must be boring, right? Please accept this small token of my regard. I originally planned to share it with you at school today, but since I didn't bring any other get-well gift, take this as my gift."
After speaking, Yamada Kenta looked left and right at the curious gazes of the girls behind him and gave an awkward laugh.
Tsushima Kagami watched as Yamada Kenta pulled his clothes open to block the view on one side, while his other hand pulled a copy of Comic Kairakuten from his chest and quickly stuffed it into Tsushima Kagami's blanket.
Then, suppressing his voice, he whispered beside Tsushima Kagami.
"Rember to read it secretly by yourself; absolutely don't get caught."
"By the way, I recomnd Xuanyayi-sensei's chapter."
"Although the NTR part isn't that great, the art style is top-tier!"
Before Tsushima Kagami could react, Yamada Kenta smiled and looked toward the others.
"I've seen Kagami-kun now, so I'll head back first. I won't disturb your chat."
With that, he left elegantly, looking like an unsung hero hiding his rit and fa.
After Yamada Kenta left, Shimizu Nayotake walked over.
Tsushima Kagami pulled the Comic Kairakuten out from under the blanket, tossed it casually to the side, and then smiled at Shimizu Nayotake.
"Is Student Shimizu not going to work today?"
Shimizu Nayotake shook her head, then spoke in a cool, clear voice.
"I'm going in a bit."
"I'm sorry, I didn't bring a get-well gift."
Tsushima Kagami waved his hand.
"I'm very happy that Student Shimizu could co to see ."
"Gifts and such aren't important."
Hearing Tsushima Kagami's words, Shimizu Nayotake's eyes seed to hesitate for a mont. Finally, she reached up and untied the small bun she had made with a red hair tie—likely to keep her slightly long hair out of the way for her part-ti job—and let her hair down.
Then, she naturally slid the hair tie onto Tsushima Kagami's left wrist.
"This is the 'Amulet' my mother gave when I was little."
"Ah, this... Since it's an 'Amulet' from Student Shimizu's mother, it's not good for to just take it like this, right?"
He wanted to take it off and return it to Shimizu Nayotake, but she stopped him.
Tsushima Kagami then looked toward Yukinoshita Shizuku at the side.
Shimizu Nayotake also looked at Yukinoshita Shizuku, seemingly seeking her opinion.
In the end, Yukinoshita Shizuku simply nodded at Tsushima Kagami.
The others at the side all covered their mouths, looking like they were enjoying the spectacle.
Tsushima Kagami could only smile and express his thanks.
"Thank you. I will take good care of it for you, Student Shimizu."
"Then I'm going to work."
After speaking, Shimizu Nayotake nodded, waved to Tsushima Kagami, then turned and bowed slightly to Yukinoshita Shizuku and the group before leaving directly.
At this ti, Hiratsuka Shizuka leaned in.
No, can't you guys co all at once? What is this, one by one?
Seeing Hiratsuka Shizuka leaning in with a look of wanting to speak but stopping, Tsushima Kagami felt slightly speechless.
"Brother, ah no."
"Umm... Kagami."
As Hiratsuka Shizuka spoke, she constantly fumbled around in her pockets.
"Good brother, if you didn't bring anything, you didn't bring anything. You don't have to copy others and give a gift."
Tsushima Kagami was really afraid Hiratsuka Shizuka would just pull out a pack of cigarettes and light one for him.
"Don't look down on , Koraaaa!"
"Eh, found it!"
After speaking, Hiratsuka Shizuka finally pulled her hand out of her back pants pocket, grabbed Tsushima Kagami's right hand, and with a pa sound, slapped sothing onto his hand.
Tsushima Kagami looked; it seed to be a coupon. Upon closer inspection, it read: [All Ran 50% OFF!]
"Ara, that was the last one."
"So you and Student Yukinoshita Shizuku are siblings. I was saying the surna Yukinoshita sounded so familiar."
"I originally had two. If I had known, I wouldn't have used one, so you two could have eaten together."
Tsushima Kagami then rembered that Hiratsuka Shizuka and Yukinoshita Shizuku seed to be in Douraku Utage-sensei's class.
"Well, I've seen the person, and the gift has been delivered. I won't disturb you all anymore."
After speaking, Hiratsuka Shizuka said goodbye to the others and left directly.
"I told you we ca at a bad ti."
At this mont, Machida Sonoko spoke again from the side with a teasing smile.
Tsushima Kagami finally sat up, then looked at Sayuri and the others with a smile.
"No, you ca at exactly the right ti."
"I would like to ask Sonoko-senpai, Akane-senpai, and Sayuri to do a favor."
After speaking, he looked at Yukinoshita Shizuku.
"Help get the thing I asked you to bring."
Yukinoshita Shizuku nodded. She opened Tsushima Kagami's school bag that was sitting nearby, took out a stack of manuscript paper, and walked over to Tsushima Kagami.
Tsushima Kagami took it. He looked at the 'Amulet' hair tie Shimizu Nayotake had given him on his left hand, then took it off and handed it to Yukinoshita Shizuku.
"You keep it for now. After all, it was a gift from Student Shimizu's mother; it wouldn't be good if it got dirty or lost while I'm wearing it."
Yukinoshita Shizuku nodded upon hearing this, took the hair tie, and put it away.
Subsequently, Tsushima Kagami handed the manuscript to Machida Sonoko and the others.
"Please trouble yourselves to ask Watanabe-san for if this can be published in Comic Kairakuten."
After he spoke, and as the group took the manuscript, Yukinoshita Shizuku, Tsukuyomi Komoe, and Douraku Utage also leaned in, and everyone began flipping through it together.
