Rock In Soul ch13-1

p1

Tests are over and I'm finally free!

Heh~ So many manufacturers I've never heard of.

Woah! This guitarist passed away, huh...?
Man~ These guys got pretty old.

It's the usual music store, but...?

p2

Yeah, it surprised me at first too.
It's quite the shock. The guitar's gone up in price by a bit too...
Hm...?

Yo.
Anju! How did you get here!?

Thank you very much~

Geh! You two...

p3

It's because they're completely different that they're a good match...?

p4

I knew you were knowledgeable about guitars, Silk-chan, but I had no idea you worked here!
Well... I like it, so...

It's funny how you're working part-time even though you talk like a rich girl!
You really lack delicacy, don't you!?

...So, are you here shopping today?

Well... Telecaster-kun's been acting up lately.

Hmm. Let me take a look.

p5

Geh... I don't remember it being this beat up when I first saw it.

Are you doing proper maintenance?

Yeah... Aki gets mad if I don't take good care of it.
She taught me how to do maintenance, but it got damaged...
Hey, Haru! Take proper care of it!
Wawah...

I see...
Well, it's no normal guitar, so maybe there's a reason behind it.
Anju's guitar is worn out too...
The dirt and rust can be dealt with to an extent, so you should buy the necessary things for that.

Maintenance Set

Also...

p6

A bunch of local bands will be performing here for an event next week.
The culture festival's coming up, so it should make for good reference.
You guys are gonna take part too, right?

June 15th
Store 54 Sound Hall
Participating Bands

Will you be joining us, Silk-chan...?
Can't you tell just by looking? I'm gonna be busy with work!

But well...

I don't mind putting my name down for the light music club...

p7

So when I'm free...
Silk-chan!

Hey... I'm just putting my name down.

Yeah! Anything's fine! I'm just happy you're thinking about the club, Silk-chan!

They're still at it.

p8

So, how'd it go?
Badly~ I couldn't study at all.

How did you do on the test, Sudou-san?
Ah... Erm...

p9

Hah...

Not good, I'm guessing.
Since you're hooked on that thing.

Eh...?
Nanka High's light music club.

I happened to see it in a video that was playing.
You were wearing a hat and changed your uniform, but that's you on bass, isn't it?

p10

What's the meaning of this?

Doing something like that...
I...!

T-To me...

p11

It's something more important... th-than studying...
B-But!

I don't intend on neglecting either...!

p12

What's all this?
Sudou-san?

...Hah.

W-We'll settle this another time... Hehe...

Hmph...

...
