Volume 7 Chapter 11 (2/2)

When opened, it showed the word ”Bravo!” written in red ink, and bit by bit this started to draw the laughter out of me

I focused th on my stomach hed at

If I laugh, I lose, pff-ff-ff It was a bit like a stare-down

Even so, shi+racefully She see her moves to fit the lyrics As you'd expect from a master

Sei was cheering her on loudly

Eriko was clapping to the beat too

(Ahh, I see It's okay to laugh)

The way I was analyzing things was pretty pathetic and at that point I realized that further reflection would be even more absurd, so I decided to just sit back and enjoy it

”Maria-sama's soul, it is a - ”

I joined in singing at the third verse I hadn't been at Lillian's since kindergarten, but I knew the song well I'd been taught it by my adorable petit soeur, Sachiko

shi+ in the choir

Now then

Yumi-chan was last up

Yoshi+no-chan switched the tape and pressed play

I waited in anticipation for what she was going to do, then Yue with a spotted bandana and basket covering her face It oddly matched her tracksuit pants and sweatshi+rt

This is - it took ure - no way, there's no way it could be that

<~yasuki~>

But what I thought it couldn't be was, in fact, the reality Thefrom the tape was the shi+mane prefecture specialty, the ”Yasuki Bushi+” But normally it was a male dance

I had to hand it to Yu, also called ”Loach Scooping,” was absurdly funny

When she lowered the basket, revealing her face, I couldn't help but laugh out loud A five-yen coin, held in place by string threaded through the hole in the coin and fastened around her ears, pressed down on her nose, nificent

My laugh seee, and the roohter

<~ara essa=”” ssa~=””>

As for Yumi-chan

She dug at thea loach in to the basket

The loach escaped, then she had to catch the slippery thing

Her movements and facial expression - for a party trick it was a splendid perforhed so much my stomach was in knots

As I laughed, I caught sight of Sachiko froain I was surprised

( … Right)

Sachiko, not usually one to s down her face

This would have been unthinkable to the old, inflexible Sachiko Back then, she would have angrily dragged her petit soeur down fro so foolishly

Sachiko was slowly but surely changing

With that, I thought that I had no regrets left at Lillian's

I could graduate with peace of mind

<~yasuki~ bushi+~=””>

Yumi-chan's dance reached its finale

If there was one thing I was disappointed about, it was that I wouldn't be alongside them when the current first-years became Roses

That unorthodox school council would definitely be so to look forward to
