Alone.

[ It turns out that maybe he doesn't know anything. ]

I'd love to learn a thing or two about gardening from you, Haru-san. I can make clay pots for your plants in exchange.

[ This whole conversation feels so unreal. Haru asked him to talk to her, but still. ]

[mapsio]

Do you make pottery, Hibiki-kun?

[secrowtary]

I do. It's nothing special, but I enjoy doing it.

[ He takes a breath. This. This isn't happening. Why are they talking about all these mundane things in such circumstances... ]

Haru-san...do you think you could help me find my favorite flower?

[mapsio]

Of course I will. When they free us... I can help you find your favorite flower. Maybe you will even find two?

[secrowtary]

I hope so.

[ He goes silent for a while after saying that. ]

Is there anything you'd like to do together in the future, Haru-san?

[ Maybe it'll help her think about something happy at least for a short while. ]

[mapsio]

Get to know you even better, if that is possible. That is what I wish for.

[secrowtary]

I'll do everything I can to make it come true. I promise you that.

[mapsio]

You will really let me?

[secrowtary]

Why shouldn't I? You're my friend. That's what friends do, am I wrong?

[mapsio]

You aren't wrong, thank you...thank you for being my friend.
