The time for watering came. I went out of the house rather early so there was less people than usual and inside of the still train felt little lonely. When I arrived at school my breath was rising more than I thought, to think that going to school while running
lightly is too intense. I would like to also appear in that marathon convention before long.

Only the sound of my footsteps can be heard in the corridor which was very quiet… it was supposed to be until I heard footsteps from behind me from which I saw a person standing at the entrance unintentionally.

“Good Morning” (Don’t know who is talking here)

“HYUA!!”

His heart jumped out of his mouth and I thought that he would soon depart.well, it’s the opposite.I was surprised at the person behind me to the extant that my heart almost went out my mouth.

Ikemen san with his narrow eyes and swept back hair. That person was inspecting the school uniforms at the gate before.

If I remember correctly, his name is Katsura-san? Was that it? I am not sure.

“Goo, good morning!” (Aika)

“You are too early. I remember you from before when I met you at the school gate, may I know your name?” (Katsura)

“Yes, it is Aika Shinozuka” (Aika)

The moment I said that name, he looked like I was a frog being stared at by a snake. His thin eyes became thinner, the air became gloomy …wh,why?

“Aika Shinozuka? Is that you?” (Katsura)

Hey this is the pattern when they learn about Aika-
chan. (TLN: Not sure about this one) And it is like I had done something bad kind of feeling. I will soon get accustomed to this overbearing look, I think.

“I lost my memory so I do not understand, I am Aika Shinozuka. Uhm, Katsura san… did I say anything that caused you
trouble?” (Aika)

“…. It’s Katsuragi. I directly have not heard of any good rumor. I
heard a of a rumor about a memory
loss.” (Katsuragi)

Isn’t Aika-chan, in fact ,a popular person? The rumor shouldn’t have
spread out if it isn’t so.

“Why are you here so early in the morning?”(Katsuragi)

“This is because I wanted to water the flowers in the flower bed.” (Aika)

“Were you part of the environment committee?”(Katsuragi)

“No, they said that they were lacking members so I said I would help them.”(Aika)

“Why you?” (Katsuragi)

“It is because I would like to water it!” (Aika)

I incidentally noticed that I was silently being stared at. I need to finish watering before the time runs out! I must hurry!

“I have a task to water the flowers so excuse me”(Aika)

I, unintentionally, gave a salute and went to the cla.s.sroom to put my bag. The atmosphere while in front of Katsuragi-san became stiff. I think it is befitting of him since he is part of the public morals committee.

When I arrived at the flowerbed, the hose, considering that it is essential, was not there. Eh, what should I do? People from the environmental committee are yet to arrive, so I cannot water the flower bed! Though it would be in the tool room, I am helpless since I do not know where that place is. Regardless, it’s useless…

(TLN-not sure of this line: や、役立ず……Ed- it
means useless)

I hung my head, but then suddenly I heard a sound and when I turned around, it’s the hose! The hose is there! It is connected but moreover there is water coming out neatly. Though there was not one until a while ago. Why is that?

“By any chance . . . fairy -san?” (Aika)

There is no one in the area. The fairy helped me who was in trouble. Maybe, I do not think so,but it might be Angel-san. It shouldn’t be strange even if there is a fairy-san.

(Remember the angel who sent
MC in Aika’s body)

“Arigatou, fairy-san.”(Aika)

One must say thanks even though they cannot be seen. I began sprinkling the water right away. The splash of water glistens in the morning sunlight brilliantly. The flower also seems comfortable. When I am watering it,surprisingly, a rainbow which glistens on the seven colors appeared.

“Beautiful, seeing such a rainbow up close. “(Aika)

The people from environmental committee came when I was swinging the hose and started doing the same. They looked surprised for some reason.

“No way, I didn’t really think that you will come. Before that you also helped me with planting, so really thank you very much.”

This person was also on the occasion with the seeds for flower bed where I first met Mayu-chan. I only have memories of meeting Mayu-chan and bug-san.

[ED- The True hero, bug-san reappears…Forget about Ichinose, Katsuragi or any other ikeman, No one can come closer to the greatness of the only one and original bug-san.So brothers let’s celebrate the arrival of our true hero, bug-san!! TLN: o/]

“There are a lot of people in the athletic club from the environmental committee members, and there are only a few who sprinkle water alongside with their morning
exercise and self training”

“Is that okay? I will help you everyday if I’m alright.” (Aika)

“I can not bear to go up to that point, I am in the committee and I have to let them (other committee members I guess) do it.”

“I see….”(Aika)

I thought that I can water it daily. The person from the environmental committee was depressed and smiled bitterly at me.

“I didn’t think you were so depressed. Is watering so boring?”

“No! It’s very fun.”

“Oh, really? Can I ask you for about a week?”

” Please leave it to me.”(the line used here literally means ‘please leave’)

Hooray! I got the job of watering for a week! I will do my best.

I finished watering cheerfully and got him to tell me about the equipment room when putting away the hose.

“Was it here? I’ll keep it in mind.” (Aika)

“Eh, you did not know. Because you used the hose ,I a.s.sumed that you knew already.”

“Fairy-san helped me.”(Aika)
