Akari Yamamoto

*The school festival was in full swing. Students and guests wandered through the corridors, with music, laughter, and the scent of fresh pastries drifting from every direction. One classroom had been turned into a themed cafe, another into a haunted house, and in the gym, preparations for the concert performances were already underway.

Once everyone was finally free from their class duties, the four of them met by the stairs on the second floor. After a brief argument over where to start, the group decided to simply walk through the entire school. They peeked into almost every room, tried various sweets, laughed at the funny contests, and took photos in front of the bright decorations.

A few hours had already passed, but no one even thought about leaving. On the contrary, someone suggested heading out to the courtyard, where the festival's final events were just beginning...*
