Part 7: A Lost Girl and a Secret
Hikari: Oh no…
Hikari: I’m totally lost…
Hikari: Haven’t I already passed through this hallway? Which way was the bathroom again?
Hikari: K-koyomi-san… Hikawa-san… Xue~… Ramo-san… Lilja-san…
Hikari: No one’s coming…
Ramona: Isn’t it taking her too long?
Lilja: Did she really get lost?
Xue: She isn’t going around randomly checking every room, is she?..
Koyomi: I-I doubt she’d do something like that…
Koyomi: (…I hope she wouldn’t, would she?)
Koyomi: (I think I put away my medication. Even if Hikari-san accidentally goes into my room, she shouldn’t find out about it…)
Koyomi: …I guess I’ll go look for her.
Ramona: Shouldn’t we all go? It should be faster to find her with more people, no?
Koyomi: N-no need… I don’t want anyone else getting lost in the process.
Ramona: But…
Xue: Come on, Germany, sit down. I don’t think Koyomi-san will be comfortable with guests wandering around her house.
Ramona: Well… True… I don’t want to cause her trouble…
Xue: If you get it, then back off. Right, Koyomi-san?
Koyomi: …Yes. Thank you for your help, Xue-san.
Koyomi: Hikari-san? Where are you?
Koyomi: (…She wasn’t in the bathroom. But where is she then?)
Hikari: W-what should I do… All the doors look the same…
Hikari: M-may be, it’s this one!
Koyomi: (Wait. Did I really put my medication in the drawer?.. I feel like I might have left it on my desk…)
Koyomi: (I must hurry to my room, before anyone sees it!..)
Koyomi: It’s just around the corner…
Koyomi: H-hikari-san? You’re here…
Hikari: Ah, Koyomi-san!
Hikawa: Oh, here you are, Koyomi-sama.
Koyomi: Hikawa?
Hikawa: Did something happen? You seem to be out of breath.
Koyomi: Umm, you see… No, everything’s fine. Why are the two of you near my room?
Hikawa: I was just passing by when I noticed Hikari-sama opening the door.
Hikawa: So I stopped and called out to her. “Do you know that this is the room of Koyomi-sama?”
Hikari: Koyomi-san, please, excuse me! I slightly opened the door without realizing it was your room…
Hikawa: That’s when you’ve arrived, young lady. And here we are.
Koyomi: So that’s how it is…
Koyomi: Anyway, Hikari-san, did you manage to find the bathroom?
Hikari: Yes, I did! Sorry, Koyomi-san… I didn’t mean to cause you trouble…
Koyomi: It’s no problem. Could you please return to the rehearsal hall ahead of me?
Hikari: Of course! Umm, the rehearsal hall should be…
Koyomi: Turn left on that corner. Hikawa, could you escort her, please?
Hikawa: Yes, young lady. Hikari-sama, this way, please.
Hikari: Thanks!
Koyomi: Phew.
Hikawa: Young lady.
Koyomi: Is something the matter?
Hikawa: Please, be at ease. Your medication is securely hidden. I made sure that no one would have found it, even if I hadn’t come in time.
Koyomi: I see… Then I’m glad.
Hikawa: Young lady?
Koyomi: Is there something else?
Hikawa: Seeing you with such a thoughtful look on your face will make everyone worry. Please, brighten up a little.
Koyomi: You are right. Thank you, Hikawa.
Hikawa: No, it’s my pleasure to be of help. Young lady, you too should have a good time every now and then.
Hikawa: Well, Hikari-sama, shall we get going?
