Convenient Semi-friend vol4 extras
p6
You're going home for summer break, Suuna-chan!?
Y-Yes.
Wh-What did Ruka say...?
Ruka-san? Erm... She was like "Is that so~?", I guess.
Is that so~...
I-I see...
D-Did I do something bad...?
Heh!?
N-No, not at all!
It's good that you're spending time with your family!
p7
...Out of interest, are you going to be busy once you get home?
No, not really...
I'll probably just laze around at home like always.
I see...
Erm, enjoy yourself, okay?
Yes.
Suuna isn't here right now...
I'm so lonely.
p8
Yep... Should've expected this...
You should tell that to her directly.
Easier said than done, you brat.
I'll hang up on you.
I knew this wasn't on an "is that so~" level,
but I guess Ruka was putting on a brave front.
But I'm surprised.
You'd look like you'd hold her back without caring what she thinks.
...I was thinking about persuading her to stay.
She considered it, huh.
But after seeing her smile like that,
there was no way I could force her...
p9
This coming from Ruka, who only desires convenient people!?
Sorry for asking for some convenient advice.
...If this were the Ruka from before she had met Suuna-chan,
she would've probably forced her own selfishness...
...But lately,
even if it's just a little,
it feels like she's back to the Ruka from back then.
I'm glad.
Ruka may appear strong,
but she's surprisingly affected by her environment and the people around her.
Her sudden change during middle school
probably wasn't her fault...
I've only just realised that recently, though...
I was just plain ticked off at the time.
p10
I'm glad you understand.
You're so tolerant, Kohaku-san~
Didn't Suuna-chan say
that she wouldn't be that busy with her family?
Hmm~
In that case...
Suuna-chan's family live in Kanagawa, right?
I think she said it was Yokohama.
Hmm...
Honestly.
I hear that at the start of August,
you're such a handful.
there's supposed to be this huge fireworks festival.
p11
Suuna, who had been burdened with a randoseru backpack until just the other day.
Height: 152cm
Weight: 48kg
The 2nd tallest in her grade school, she was popular for being a mature mother figure due to how quiet and tall she was. She had yet to realise how out-of-sync she was.
p12
So Suuna has lots of clothes like these at her home too...
It smells like her...
She let her hair grow out over summer break.
p14
Meanwhile
GYAHAHAHAHAHA
AHAHAHA GYAHAHAHAWatching TV
Ow.
That hurts.
p15
A rough page I submitted myself knowing full well it wouldn't fly.
Wanna touch me?
Of course... that's "if you can", Suuna.
After several revisions, a 4-panel method showing just her face gave it a pop vibe and it somehow passed.
p17
Rejoice! Volume 4 Exclusive Bonus Manga!
Mm...
Gh...u...
Fu...
Mm...
Hah
Hah
Um...
R-Ruka...
p18
D-Does it not... feel good?
Huh? Why do you ask?
I-I can't see your face, a-and your voice sounds like it's in pain...
...My voice is the same as when we did it at your home, isn't it?
Think about it.
Just like how it was at your house,
it's not exactly just the two of us right now, is it?
Th-That's true...
I couldn't bear it if I got too loud and someone heard us.
...
And the reason you're hiding your face is...?
...
p19
Because I don't want you to see it.
Nng!
Wh-Why not!?
Cos it's weird.
I'm weird?
No. It's me.
I'm
weird.
I mean,
just from
hear you call me "Ruka",
I can't stop smiling.
Hah... Hah...
It's weird.
p20
Hng<3
Ruka-san.
R-Ruka.
She's this happy
over someone like me
calling her name...?
p21
That just makes me so happy.
Um, I'll
try to get used to it,
so I can call you "Ruka" lots of times.
...Thanks for that.
But putting that aside...
R-Ruka...
What?
I want to see... your face.
...
Weren't you supposed to bad at looking people in the eye?
Urk
I-I am!
But...
p22
I want to see
Ruka's... face properly...
W-When we has se-... x, you make expressions I've never seen before, Ruka-san...!(?)
So you're getting a kick out of me looking ridiculous.
Th-Th-Th-That's not...
I-I just can't tell if you're feeling good if I can't see your face.
It's fine. You don't need to tell.
Th-
That won't do!
p23
...Then
could you tell me?
Ng...
Does it
feel good right now?
p24
How does... your stomach feel?
...It's ticklish.
...How about around here?
Ng... Not bad.
Then... here...?
~Ng
...That's... I...
told you before, didn't I?
...
Nng

May I
look at your face...?
Ruka.
p28
Thank you... very much.
Ruka.
Hah...
You don't have to keep saying that.
p29
Ehehe. I've never seen you be this happy over me saying your name, Ruka-san...
You trying to say I'm some floozy!?
N-Not at all...!
Haha
I know.
Well then,
Wah!
p30
Mm
Fu
Hah...
You've gotten a good look at my face,
p31
so let's
continue.
p32
...Hyesh.
It's not even our first time!!
Where'd all that enthusiasm disappear to??
Hey, wake up~
We're gonna be late~
Hrm...
p33
Six more minutes.
I just said we're gonna be late.
You're always saying "six minutes", Suuna.
Why that specific number?
Fweh...? I-I've never thought about it... Eh? I wonder why?
Well, whatever.
If you're awake, hurry up and get ready.
R-Right.
U-Um.
p34
Good morning,
R-Ruka.
Yeah. Morning, Suuna.
p35
Afterword
Thank you for picking up volume 4! Quite a lot of progress in this volume...!
I managed to safely deliver some le....wds to you too!
I had originally planned on drawing something more specific, but I couldn't exactly put that in a magazine, so I stopped myself and added a little bonus for the fourth volume.
Well, they're dating now, but the story will continue a little longer. I hope to see you again in volume 5.
A big thank you to everyone involved. -Chigusa Minori
Ruka-san... Um, y-you're a bit close...
What is it, Suuna-saan?
Uuh... R-Ruka...
Ahaha.
Sorry. Just kidding. Take your time.
R-Right.
p39
The Daily Life of Kaneko-senpai
Hey hey, mind if I go to the first year's building today?
Asks this every time.
I very much do mind.
You stand out, Nee-san. In more ways than one.
Okay~
Honestly, Nee-san. Ruka is all you think about...
Ehehe~ Sorry~
I just wanted to take a look around to see if Haku-chan is enjoying her class~
Haku-chan never talks about herself, after all.
Kaneko-san is always looking at her phone.
When I looked the other day, she was looking at a photo of her little sister.
Eh~ How cute~
A photo of Ruka that has Haku in it (blatantly taken in secret)
