I'll do everything I can. <0010> // From now on, that's what I'm going to think; that alone has merit. <0011> // That's what I believed. <0012> // The garden from yesterday. <0013> // As expected, it's not possible for grass to grow thickly overnight. <0014> // But, when I look at it with a steady eyes, I can see that it was quite rough work. <0015> // I have to think about how to do it properly if I want to make it in time for Kotomi's birthday. <0016> // I move the chair and the table to the corner of the garden. <0017> // I look at the condition of the table. <0018> // In my memory, it was painted with a dazzling pure white. <0019> // The coating right now is loose, and the surface is showing off some red and light brown rust here and there. <0020> // I use the wire brush and scrape off a lump of big rust. <0021> // The paper rasp becomes covered with fine rust. <0022> // I smear some rust-proofing on the unprotected metal. <0023> // I was immersing myself into working. <0024> // It took me around an hour to finish giving the table some rust-proofing. <0025> // While letting it dry, I began working on the chair. <0026> // I thought I was happy it was small, but its shape was so complex that it took some time.* <0027> // I did the same thing to the next chair, scraping it with a paper rasp and painting it with rust-proofing. <0028> // I decided to trim the garden tree and the hedge before letting the chairs dry. <0029> // I position the shears around some branches and apply some force into it. <0030> // With a fine snapping sound, thick, lush, green leaves fell on the ground. <0031> // I was working my way near the edge of the garden. <0032> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "Whoops..." <0033> // Something hit my tiptoe, and that immediately made me adjust my stance. <0034> // I thought that was a stone, but it was just a dirty black brick. <0035> // It was buried in the ground together with weeds in a circular pattern. <0036> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "I see..." <0037> // As if thin skin falling out, I started to remember again.* <0038> // This was the flower bed. <0039> // It was blooming with multicolored flowers as if it was scattered around... <0040> // I look at it as if looking at a city that was destroyed long ago. <0041> // I gently separate the overgrown weeds with both my hands. <0042> // A small earthworm suddenly ran away from the sudden light. <0043> // The rust-proofing has dried up, and it was finally time to paint. <0044> // I removed the lid of the paint can and drip the paint brush on it. <0045> // I painted it repeatedly to make sure as much as possible that it's not inconsistent. <0046> // The sky is clear; it's a good day for painting. <0047> // It makes me want to whistle. <0048> // I didn't imagine myself painting at a garden on a Sunday. <0049> // The leg's rust-proofing hasn't dried up yet, but it felt quite good to have its pure white color returned with new paint. <0050> // If Kotomi comes too, it would surely be fun. <0051> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "Heh... but she might be only nothing but a burden." <0052> // The only thing I see is Kotomi tripping over the tools, drenching her clothes with paint. <0053> // There's no need to be impatient, so I think. <0054> // Because a chance to garden with Kotomi will someday come. <0055> // It's three o'clock in the afternoon. <0056> // I've finished painting up the chair and table. <0057> // I worked it out carefully, so I'm quite impressed with the result.* <0058> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "I'm quite good at this too, huh." <0059> // I want to quickly return this garden to how it used to be. <0060> // And for that reason, I learned some gardening tips. <0061> // I was happily gazing at the pure white chair when my stomach grumbled. <0062> // I decided to go in front of the station to have a meal. <0063> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "... Kotomi--- are you eating properly?" <0064> // I try to call her on her second floor window. <0065> // Of course, there's no response. <0066> // It would be good if she's hiding somewhere, looking at me. <0067> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "I'll be going out for a while, but I'll be back again, all right?" <0068> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "You should eat too----" <0069> // I changed out of my paint-stained clothing. <0070> // It was the same as always for this city. <0071> // The bustling people and the exhaust fumes of cars. <0072> // From signs to displays, a dizzying flood of sights. <0073> // I look like I came from another world, from the smell of the earth, the grass, and the paint. <0074> // I drop in the bookstore first. <0075> // I stand for a little while in the gardening book corner. <0076> // Even a single page is filled with useful information. <0077> // Just as I thought, the way I sharpened the shear yesterday was completely wrong. <0078> // To make it worse, that shear isn't for mowing, it was for maintaining the hedges. <0079> // Cutting the lawn at random is no good. Looks like I have to fix the damaged things first. * <0080> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "I'm no good at all..." <0081> // I stay dumbfounded for a while. <0082> // I bought a beginner's manual for gardening as well as a guide on how to flower a garden. <0083> // And then I went to the usual fast food restaurant. <0084> // I took a seat and ordered a hamburger coffee set. <0085> // From there, I make a list of the necessary things and procedures from the books. <0086> // ......... <0087> // ...... <0088> // ... <0089> // I realized that the sun was about to set when I returned to the streets. <0090> // I head to the bank's cash machine and withdraw all my savings. <0091> // I saved this money when I was desperately trying to leave my house a long time ago. <0092> // But in the end, I didn't get the chance to use it, and had forgotten about it myself. <0093> // I felt grateful for being wild back then. <0094> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "Next is the home center, huh..." <0095> // It's a bit of a walking distance, but I don't have much time right now. <0096> // So I decided to ride the bus. <0097> // As I hurried to the edge of the street, my eyes turned towards the bench from the other side. <0098> // Sitting there were three uniformed girls from my school. <0099> // Thinking, "How could there be school on Sunday?", I realized today is School Foundation Day. <0100> // I wonder what Furukawa and the gang are doing... <0101> // As I think of that, one of them heads towards me. <0102> \{Furukawa} "" // \{Furukawa} "... \m{A}-san?" <0103> \{Ryou} "" // \{Ryou} "Ah..." <0104> \{Kyou} "" // \{Kyou} "Hey, what are you doing in this place?" <0105> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "Huh, so it's you guys?!" <0106> // Even though I rushed up to them, the three didn't stir an inch, remaining seated. <0107> // They look strange somehow. <0108> // There's a familiar violin case placed at the edge of the bench. <0109> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "That's the violin from a while ago, right? Did you borrow it again?" <0110> // No one replied. <0111> // I realized that the case looks strange. <0112> // The hinge of the lid cover is gone, and the snap fastener is bent too. <0113> // I lift it up and open its cover. <0114> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "Woah...!" <0115> // I suddenly gasp. <0116> // The violin was divided in two. <0117> // The bracket supporting the strings and the gourd-shaped body were torn apart. <0118> // It was completely broken, and its plank is filled with scratches. <0119> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "What the hell happened here?!" <0120> // I didn't receive an answer. <0121> // As I was about to ask one more time, <0122> // Kyou, who was looking down, answered: <0123> \{Kyou} "" // \{Kyou} "We were planning to give it to Kotomi as a present..." <0124> // I listen to her explanation and try to understand the situation. <0125> // These girls seem to be giving their best too, doing something different from me. <0126> // They must have searched for the real owner of the violin, with some help from Nishina of the Chorus Club. <0127> \{Kyou} "" // \{Kyou} "And we had finally contacted the real owner, too." <0128> // As expected, the real owner, a former member of the Music Club, left the violin at the school and had forgotten about it. <0129> \{Kyou} "" // \{Kyou} "She told us \b'I won't use it anymore so do what you like with it'\u, and formally gave it to us. We also talked about it with the Music Club." <0130> // I bet these three were overjoyed that they decided to polish the violin. <0131> \{Furukawa} "" // \{Furukawa} "When we talked with Nishina-san, she had suggested that we tune it properly one more time." <0132> \{Ryou} "" // \{Ryou} "And then... the three of us brought money to a musical shop..." <0133> // Furukawa and Fujibayashi probably were really happy about it. <0134> // Both of them taking along their new friend, the violin case, while nonchalantly crossing the pedestrian lane. <0135> // And there, suddenly a motorcycle crosses the red light. <0136> // Furukawa and Fujibayashi managed to avoid it in time. <0137> // But the violin case sprung up, and by chance, the lid cover opened up. <0138> // And then, the violin fell to the road surface... <0139> \{Kyou} "" // \{Kyou} "I'll be saying this, but it was definitely the motorcycle's fault, all right? It's not Miss President or Ryou's fault or anything!" <0140> // Even Kyou's follow up was futile, as the two of them feel depressed from their misery. <0141> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "What about that motorcycle?" <0142> \{Kyou} "" // \{Kyou} "I chased it, but it got away." <0143> \{\m{B}} "" // \{\m{B}} "You ran?" <0144> \{Kyou} "" // \{Kyou} "It couldn't be helped, right?
