Volume 28 Chapter 18 (2/2)

”But it can't be bad Because it's the thought”

She had confir you'd expect from a wily old third-year student In the end, no led they were easily able to maneuver me around It was even their preference that I refer to them as onee-samas

”Ah, right, right”

When I was about to leave, one of the onee-samas called out to me

”Like ere saying, you can't ask Tsutako-chan for help on this one”

”Huh?”

I hadn't even thought about that, but it still upset et Tsutako-sama to help

”You'll be fine We'll help you with developing the film All you have to do is take the photos by yourself, and bring the film here Of course, those photos have to be ones that prove to us, no, to everyone that sees them, that you took them all by yourself”

I felt uneasy when they gave me an unused roll of film

”But hoill I … ”

Be able to prove that I took them all by myself?

”Don't make that face You'll work it out, if you think about it There's at least one way of doing it”

”Huh … ?”

”Ah”

Froht a perrounds and entered the toilet block, where I have just opened the box of filiven

The words I wrote on the roll of fil it out of the box were 'Takeshi+ma Tsutako'

For the next couple of days, I' to walk around with this film in my camera

The significance of the name 'Takeshi+ma Tsutako' written on the film is that I intend to fill it with shots of her

Without Tsutako-sa about it excites me

At this point, I still don't knohat an ordeal it will become

I can't even iine the sort of fuss that the completed film will cause
