sixth memory (tneu): boyfriend talk

[springtime]

[ Wako is walking through the school’s hallways ]
Wako: The flowers that dot the hillside
Reach out towards the sun
With their thousands of tiny breaths
The world is reborn
[ in the classroom, she sees Ruri and the tennis guy kissing through the glass ]
Wako: Good morning.
Ruri: G-good morning. You’re early today.
Wako: Is that a racket?
Ruri: Yeah. He gave it to me last week for my birthday. He’s going to teach me tennis.
Wako: Sounds like it’s going great.
Ruri: We’re still in the glass-kissing phase.
Kanako: Really? You can’t get this kind of mark through the glass though. [ pointing out a hickey ] Good morning.
Wako: Does that mean you’ve done it?
Ruri: No, we haven’t. But…
Wako: But what?
Ruri: He invited me to come to his house net Sunday.
Wako: H-his house?
Ruri: Yeah. He wants to introduce me to his parents.
Kanako: [to Simone] What do you think?
Simone: Well, he is likely planning to claim his parents had some urgent business and ensnare her alone in his house.
Ruri: I sure hope so!
Wako: [SHE’S HAPPY ABOUT IT…]
Kanako: I’m jealous.
Ruri: Aren’t you married, Mrs. Watanabe?
Kanako: My husband is not my boyfriend. I think having a boyfriend is part of high school life.
Ruri: Anyway, sorry, Wako. I can’t come over on Sunday.
Ruri: Did you forget your own birthday?
Blah blah blah blah, then Sugata and Takuto come in and Wako looks at them awkwardly.

The point of this memory is that Wako loves both of them.
