Yamada and Kase-san ch48: Graduation Album and Kase-san.

What did Kase-san get in the package her family sent over...!?

Delivery~

thwomp

Kase-san~
There's a huge package for you.
Eh~?
Ah!

It's my things from home!

Little bro

They were gonna send all my old stuff over since my little bro's moving into my room.
Uwah~ What a pain.

Heh~
Kase-san's old things!

You can just put them in the closet.

riiip

Nah, it's probably just junk I was gonna throw out anyway...

Ah!

close

Oh crap!
Hold your breath!!

!?

Waft~

clatter
flap flap
cough cough

rumble rumble

I'm really sorry.

I didn't think they'd pack my unwashed tracksuit too~
From when?
They must've thrown in whatever they could find...
Even these old shoes.

Ah.
A cup and ball!

Hyup!
Hoo!

Amazing!

clap clap clap clap

I guess I had a knack for this back then.
Heh~

Just like I thought, it's all junk. I should probably just throw it out as is.
These shoes are too small for me now anyway.

...

Ehehe. If you don't want them, Kase-san,
maybe I'll take them all.
Huh?

Ah, isn't this a graduation album?
Yeah, from grade school! Talk about nostalgic!

Bonds

It's treasure!
Eeh~?

Erm...?
Give it here.

Class 6-A, class 6-A...
Woah, this brings back memories.

flip

Here!
Can you tell which one I am?

Class 6-A

Heh...
Erm...

SHINE~

!?

Hah!?
It's so bright!!

P-Pretty girl!!
She's always been on another level!!
She looks like a celebrity!!

H-
Here, right...?
Ah, you got it~!
You sure figured that out quickly!

Of course I would!
Heh~

Ah.
She's here too.
Always in the center.
A Kase-san I've never known about.

I was good at running,
so when I was in the 5th grade, I asked my parents to let me join a nearby track and field club.

That's when they bought these for me.
I was so happy to have a proper pair of running shoes for the first time ever.

So you were fast back then too, huh?
Yeah, in my school, at least.

But the girls in the club were on another level entirely.
I was surprised by how different it was
being taught by a specialist club.

But as I kept going there,
I kept getting faster and really enjoyed myself.
Good times...

Kase Tomoka

Do you think we would've been friends if I had been in the same class as you back then, Kase-san.

p10

Eh?
Of course we would've.
Ahahaha
What are you saying, Yamada?

giggle

I wonder about that...

pomf

Maybe I'll keep this stuff after all!

Like you said, Yamada, it'd be a waste to throw it away.
You get to see my graduation album too, after all!

Bonds

p11

I think I felt a little sad.
Aha

I'm not in those photos of grade school Kase-san.
Well duh!
We met in high school, after all!

giggle

Same goes for me, Yamada.
I'm just as frustrated that I'm
not in your grade school album.

Also, about what you were saying earlier.

p12

If I had met you back in grade school, Yamada,
we would've become friends.

And I definitely would've fallen in love with you.
