Shigure's Point of View

Iruru: It's past 1300......Hatsumi is probably talking to Daikoku.

Iruru: Daikoku must be surprised~

Shigure: Hey, Iruru-senpai! Don't just stand there, help me put out the lunch!

Iruru: Oops, sorry, sorry.

Shigure: Will you please pull yourself together? If you're going to be Shigure's guardian, you have to act accordingly.

Iruru: No, no, Shigure is right. If I'm just sitting around, I can't take care of them, can I?

Riko: ......Iruru-san is a wonderful person, but she seem a bit distracted today.

Koharu: Yeah......is it okay? Maybe it would have been better if someone else had come.

An: But I heard that Hatsumi-san and Daikoku-san are out. Nikako-san is Shigure-sama's junior......

Iruru: Haha ......Nikako is a wonderful Nee-san too, you know~?

Shigure: Well, it's fine. I didn't have any expectations from the start. More importantly, come on, let's hurry up and eat our lunch.

Iruru: Hmm, onigiri set, fried chicken, egg omelet and potato salad......

Iruru: Wow, it's a nice picnic-like bento.

Shigure: Hmph, of course it is! This Shigure made it, you know~.

Riko: But is it really okay? We left today's lunch entirely up to Shigure-sama…...

Koharu: And she even prepared the tickets for Hanayashiki amusement park for us…... This makes the existence of the SS meaningless…...

Shigure: That's why I've said it it so many times, isn’t it? It's like a token of appreciation.

Shigure: The tickets were left over from gifts, and Shigure just happened to want to make the lunches.

Shigure: You guys should just shut up and take the charity.

An: Shigure-sama...... you’re so cool~!

Koharu: We've met such a wonderful person…...!

Riko: Yes......we must thank God for this encounter.

Iruru: Hmm, this level of infatuation…...

Shigure: Iruru-senpai doesn't have fans like this, right? You can envy them all you want, you know~?

Iruru: Hahaha…...I'm not sure if I'm jealous, but more like I'm scared......

Iruru: But that aside, you’re in a good mood today.

Iruru: Is it because Hatsumi praised your recent performance?

Shigure: Well, that's part of it, too.

Koharu: Shigure-sama's acting has always been the best!

An: I'm looking forward to the next performance! I'm excited!

Riko: The public's opinion of you has definitely improved. It is safe to say that Shigure-sama has reached a new stage.

Shigure: It feels like everyone is starting to realize how amazing Shigure is♪

Shigure: But it's rather late, isn't it?

Iruru: It's important for an actor to be full of confidence. In that sense, Shigure certainly has the makings of a leading role.

Shigure: Hmph, of course she does.

Iruru: Then, Iruru-san has some useful information for you. Since we can't let everyone in the SS hear it yet, let's go a little further away and-

Shigure: Excuse me. You guys!

Riko, An, Koharu: Yes!

Iruru: Ohh…... All three of you put on earplugs at once…... How loyal are you to Shigure…...?

Shigure: More importantly, tell me the latest news quickly.

Iruru: Yes, yes. Hatsumi gave me permission to tell you.

Iruru: She said Shigure will be playing a leading role in the next original play.

Shigure: Eh......!?

Iruru: Surprised?

Shigure: O-Of course not! With Shigure's ability, it's no surprise that she was chosen for a leading role!

Iruru: Heh heh, I see, I see.

Shigure: But isn't it too soon to tell me? In the first place, why did Iruru-senpai have to be the one to tell me?

Iruru: Just my way of being an old woman. After all, isn't it important to be mentally prepared?

Shigure: Hmph! Mind your own business! Even if Shigure been told out of the blue, she would have been able to handle it easily.

Iruru: Heh heh, that's probably true. I guess I was being a bit over the top.

Shigure: But…...I'll be grateful. Thank you for telling me so early......

Iruru: Well......Shigure is very clever in this way, isn't she?

Shigure: What do you mean by that!?

Iruru: Hahaha, I'm complimenting you!

Iruru: Oh, that's right. Shigure's partner....... I also know who the other leading man is.

Shigure: Hmph......! I wonder who it is? Who has the good fortune to be chosen as Shigure's partner?

Iruru: It’s Daikoku. You should get along with her for a while, okay?

Shigure: Geez!

Iruru: 'Geez!' Nothing, you...... You should give yourself more plausible deniability......

Shigure: I can't help it if it's what I really think!

Shigure: Ahhh~! It's good that I was forewarned!

An: Hey, hey. Shigure-sama and Iruru-san, have you finished talking yet?

Koharu: Hmmm......it’s getting kind of lively.

Riko: Maybe they forgot about us.

Riko: But as far as Shigure-sama is concerned.......

An: I'm sure something happy happened!

Koharu: We, the SS, have to celebrate too!

Riko, An, Koharu: Congratulations, Shigure-sama!
