Chapter 1 『The Link of Hope』
Tumblr media
『On the way home』
Black Cat: Meow~...
- A black cat - How cute
Black Cat: Meow~...
- Pet it - Watch it
Black Cat: Meow~... 
*Clink*
- Did the cat drop something? - What’s that sound?
Looking down, there was a ring that rolled over from the cat. The ring was sparkling gold and looked fairly expensive.
Black Cat: Meow~... 
*Step step step...* The black cat dropped the ring and ran off.
- Put the ring on
For some reason, in the next instant of wearing the ring... I suddenly lost consciousness. *Thump* ...
Black Cat: Meow~...
- The cat from before? - The cat that was holding the ring?
Black Cat: Good day to you.
- The cat’s talking!? - This must be a dream.
Black Cat: People hold hopelessness in their hearts... and somehow live like that everyday.
Black Cat: Because if you stop moving forward, your balance is thrown off.
Black Cat: In order to avoid feeling the hardships as much as possible... you dull your awareness.
Black Cat: Then, when you recover consciousness, time has passed... and while holding regret, you die.
Black Cat: I... I don’t want that to happen to you.
Black Cat: And... they too...
- They...? - What are you talking about?
Black Cat: Please. Save them...
Black Cat: Everyone’s waiting for you.
- What’s going on... - Who am I saving?
Black Cat: It’s alright... You’ll soon understand.
Black Cat: Now then, open your eyes... I’ll meet you later...
- Hold on! - Mx. Black Cat!
...... ......
???: Arujisama...
- (Who...?) - (I can hear someone...)
???: Arujisama... Please wake up...
『Mysterious Residence』
....
- Uuh... Uuuuh...
???: Thank goodness. You have finally woken up.

Laterー
Tumblr media
Aizou: Ouh, Minami. You’re here early.
Minami: Aizou! Yuujirou! It’s been a while!
Yuujirou: This meeting for 『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』 was squeezed in the schedule really suddenly.
Minami: Yeah it was... I wonder what’s it about?
Aizou: Anyway Minami, I saw the live broadcast the other day. Nice performance.
Minami: Ah! You watched it!
Yuujirou: I saw it too. It’s true that it was a wonderful performance. It was much better than Aizou’s, wasn’t it?
Aizou: Aah? Why are you always turning on me at every single little thing?
Yuujirou: I’m just telling the truth.
Aizou: You...
Tumblr media
Mona: You two are always fighting. Don’t you get tired of it~
Minami: Mona, you’re here too.
Mona: Nice work today, Minami-kun.
Aizou: We’re not always fighting, this jerk was askin’ for it!
Yuujirou: Whether or not we’re fighting, it’s not of your business. Go away.
Minami: G-Guys, please don’t fight...
Minami: This meeting has to hurry up and begin...
Tumblr media
Suzumi Hiyori: Ah, there you are!
Yuujirou: Suzumi?
Suzumi Hiyori: I got a mail from Ms. Uchida..
Suzumi Hiyori: 「The sponsors will be late so please head into the meeting room and wait first」
Aizou: Ahー I see. So the room’s that one, right?
Suzumi Hiyori: Yea!
Minami & Mona: ...?
Yuujirou: Aah, you haven’t met.
Suzumi Hiyori: Ah, I’m sorry! I’ll introduce myself...
Suzumi Hiyori: I’m LIPxLIP’s trainee manager, Suzumi Hiyori.
Mona: Nice to meet youー... It must really suck to be those two’s manager.
Aizou: 『Trainee』 manager.
Minami: I am glad to meet you, please treat me well.
Suzumi Hiyori: Yup! Please treat me well too!
Yuujirou: For the time being, let’s head in.
Minami: Yeah ok.
Tumblr media
Minami: In the end, I wonder what today’s meeting’s about?
Aizou: I think the sponsor will explain different kinds of stuff.
Minami: I wonder if they were the person who gave us the offer?
Yuujirou: Hm? You haven’t heard?
Minami: Eh?
Aizou: The ones who requested for us was that 『Full Throttle4』.
Tumblr media
Minami: 『Full Throttle4』 !? That dance-vocal unit!?
Mona: I only knew after the live broadcastー
Mona: The sponsor’s 『IV』, who’s both a manager and the leader of the unit.
Minami: S-So, 『Full Throttle4』 will be here from now onward...?
Yuujirou: Yeah.
Aizou: Don’t say anythin’ weird from nervousness, ‘kay~
Minami: Don’t say that! I’ll get unnecessarily anxious!
???: Ah, sorry for being late.

A Present of Hidden Feelings Epilogue
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: Ahー I’m beat... The shop was packed today and I was super busy...
Shibasaki Ken: (But it’s for Arisa-chan and how I’ll be getting the present to her, I have to work hard.)
Shibasaki Ken: (It’s going to be our one-year anniversary... I wonder what kind of date we’ll have.)
Shibasaki Ken: (Just as I’m thinking it, I’m getting sleepy... Before that, I have to message Arisa-chan!)
Shibasaki Ken: Urmー 『Good night』 and send.
Shibasaki Ken: (Haah... Lately, I haven’t been able to talk to her much.)
Tumblr media
Female Student: Thank you for yesterday! The pasta was super yummy, y’know! I would go again!
Shibasaki Ken: Reallyー? Well, I’ll be waitin’. Next time too, you’ll be given a perfect treatー
Shibasaki Ken: (Thanks to this part-time job, my cooking skills have been increasing)
Shibasaki Ken: (Making something for Arisa-chan someday isn’t too bad an idea...)
Shibasaki Ken: (Hm? The person over there isー)
Shibasaki Ken: Oh, Arisa-chan.
Takamizawa Arisa: Ah.
Shibasaki Ken: Why’re you here? Are you feeling well?
Takamizawa Arisa: ...It’s nothing.
Shibasaki Ken: Really? That’s not the face where everything’s alright though.
Shibasaki Ken: If there’s something troubling you, tell me.
Takamizawa Arisa: I’m fine. Aren’t you worrying a little too much?
Shibasaki Ken: Well, that’s ‘cause I want to know everything about you.
Takamizawa Arisa: ...!
Shibasaki Ken: ...Ah, speaking of which
Shibasaki Ken: From before, you went to the hamburger shop with Kotarou and the rest, right?
Shibasaki Ken: How was it?
Takamizawa Arisa: In the end, we didn’t go.
Takamizawa Arisa: Because you weren’t there, we decided to go at the next chance.
Shibasaki Ken: (Psh, I thought she was acting a little distant so I got worried but she’s acting normally... I’m glad.)
A few days laterー
Shibasaki Ken: ...Arisa-chan, did something happen?
Takamizawa Arisa: N-No...
Shibasaki Ken: (Yeah no, it’s obvious you’re acting weird.)
Shibasaki Ken: (But if she doesn’t want to talk about it, there’s no point in asking about it.)
Tumblr media
Yamamoto Koudai: Shibaken, can I have a minute with you?
Shibasaki Ken: Ouhー, what’s up?
Yamamoto Koudai: Takamizawa-san is worried.
Yamamoto Koudai: She said that it was because lately, your messages to her have been decreasing and you seem busy.
Yamamoto Koudai: Since it’s you, you might already kind of have that thought to do it but could you talk to Takamizawa-san?
Yamamoto Koudai: ‘Cause she was crying at the park.
Shibasaki Ken: C-Crying...!?
Shibasaki Ken: (You were thinking too much by yourself...! Why didn’t you tell me anything?)
Shibasaki Ken: (I was always facing forward, thinking about our anniversary to the point where I wasn’t thinking about Arisa-chan...)
Shibasaki Ken: (Crap, what a failure of a boyfriend I am to worry you and make you sad!)
Shibasaki Ken: Thanks, Koudai!
Shibasaki Ken: (Once classes end, I’ll go tell Arisa-chan my feelings. Properly!)
Takamizawa Arisa: Wow...! This necklace is adorable!
Shibasaki Ken: Ahaha, your eyes are sparkling.
Shibasaki Ken: (Seriously, this honesty of hers is so adorable. I love her.)
Takamizawa Arisa: A-And also...? I have a present to give to you.
Shibasaki Ken: Eh, seriously!?
Takamizawa Arisa: ...
Shibasaki Ken: Eh...
Takamizawa Arisa: T-This is the present!
Shibasaki Ken: This kiss...? A kiss from you!?
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: (Arisa-chan turned bright red. Isn’t she too freaking cute, ahー Geez...!)
Shibasaki Ken: (I love you so much it's scary )

The Feelings I Want to Convey Chapter 7
Tumblr media
Minami: I can’t mess this live broadcast...
Tumblr media
Minami: Despite that, no matter how many simulations I ran through my head, I’m always making mistakes...
Minami: With the way this is going...
Mona: Minami-kun? Can I come in?
Minami: Mona? ...Please do so.
Tumblr media
Mona: You’ve worked hard on your rehearsal~
Minami: Likewise to you... Is there a reason why you’re here?
Mona: Ahー... It seemed like you were having some difficulties with your rehearsal.
Mona: And like, I was wondering if you were ill... or something.
Minami: I’m not...
Mona: So did something happen?
Mona: Even with your social anxiety, today’s a little... You know.
Minami: Haha... I showed this disgraceful part of me.
Mona: It’s not improper to be seen from the staff to 『lack motivation』, alright?
Minami: Yeah...
Mona: If you aren’t sick, is there something worrying you?
Minami: I... Is it something I can talk about?
Minami: Ever since it’s been decided that I would appear in  『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』, I wasn’t able to focus at all...
Minami: I made up my mind『to ensure that I don’t make any blunders』 but I’m constantly reminded of how I botch my own image.
Minami: And at this rate, the sponsor from the『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』 will be exasperated at me...
Minami: Even though I have to work hard, doing my best always lead to failure and I have to be better.
Mona: I see...
Minami: LIPxLIP and you don’t seem to be having the same feelings so the distance between us makes me all the more unnerved...
Minami: It’s like everything I’m doing is going nowhere.
Minami: And that probably gave me pressure for the 『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』, I think.
Minami: I get you and LIPxLIP but I don’t know why I was given the offer.
Minami: My... Whatever of mine that they’re expecting, I have no clue about.
Mona: Pressure, hm. It’s not that I don’t know what it is but
Tumblr media
Mona: I get the feeling of being scared of failure.
Mona: Even so, your current circumstances is such a good chance, right?
Minami: Chance...?
Mona: Yeah, the chance to perform on a large stage and have loads of people know who you are!
Mona: That’s why I want to show them the best show they have ever seen! That’s my opinion on it.
Minami: The chance to have loads of people know who I am...
Minami: Thinking about it, no, I don’t have any wants like that...
Mona: I wonder if the LIPxLIP have anything similar to it.
Mona: Other than things they anticipate, cause a stir among those watching! Or something like that.
Mona: For me, I get nervous and uneasy. Don’t think LIPxLIP know what that is though.
Mona: But I want to see the faces of the fans who enjoyed what I’ve done so no matter how bad it gets, I can do my best!
Minami: ...I forget things that are important. The way I always am is not enough.
Mona: Since you noticed that, it’s all good!
Minami: ...Yup! I’ll work on it!
Tumblr media
Minami: (I want my fans to enjoy what I do...)
Minami: (Because of that.... No matter how nervous I am or how much pressure I’m under, I’ll put my all into it with all my strength...!)
Tumblr media
Minami: (The best performance... To everyone!)
Minami: (Everything I’m able to do now with my utmost!)
Minami: (My tenseness, my stress and my pressure, I’ll take it all in!)

Takamizawa Arisa: But is it really ok to treat me to the meal?
Shibasaki Ken: It’s fineー I want to show off to you.
Takamizawa Arisa: Yea... Thank you.
Shibasaki Ken: Hey, can we stop for a bit? ...Alright, here.
Takamizawa Arisa: (A cute box...)
Shibasaki Ken: It’s my present to you. Take it!
Takamizawa Arisa: T-Thank you.
Shibasaki Ken: Urm, open it.
Takamizawa Arisa: Alright...
Shibasaki Ken: I thought it suited you so I’ve already decided a while ago to get it as your present.
Takamizawa Arisa: Wow...! This necklace is adorable!
Shibasaki Ken: Ahaha, your eyes are sparkling.
Shibasaki Ken: That’s enough to make me happy. I’m so glad all that effort was worth itー
Takamizawa Arisa: (Knowing that he’s bought this with the money he’s made from working hard at his part-time job makes me really, really happy.)
Takamizawa Arisa: Can I try it on?
Shibasaki Ken: Ah, I’ll help. Give me a sec.
Shibasaki Ken: ...Alright, stay still.
Takamizawa Arisa: (It’s a little embarrassing to be so close to Shibasaki-kun...)
Shibasaki Ken: Yup, as expected, it looks lovely on you.
Takamizawa Arisa: Thank you. I’ll always treasure it.
Shibasaki Ken: Yeah.
Takamizawa Arisa: A-And also...? I have a present to give to you.
Shibasaki Ken: Eh, seriously!?
Takamizawa Arisa: ......
Takamizawa Arisa: (I have to gather my courage! I already decided I was going to do it...)
Takamizawa Arisa: (To respond to Shibasaki-kun’s feelings, to Shibasaki-kun who have been working so hardー
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: ...
Shibasaki Ken: Eh...
Takamizawa Arisa: T-This is the present!
Shibasaki Ken: This kiss...? A kiss from you!?
Takamizawa Arisa: Don’t say it explicitly!
Shibasaki Ken: B-But, I’m getting a kiss from you!
Shibasaki Ken: Ahー I should have gathered myself togetherー!
Shibasaki Ken: But, I’m overjoyed. Thank you, Arisa-chan.
Takamizawa Arisa: ...It’s nothing.
Shibasaki Ken: Oh noー I’m going to break into a smile and never recover.
Takamizawa Arisa: It’s embarrassing so just forget it.
Shibasaki Ken: That would never happen. It’s impossible for me to forget!
Takamizawa Arisa: You have to, it’s flustering!
Shibasaki Ken: Arisa-chan
Takamizawa Arisa: W-What is it
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: I really love you.
Takamizawa Arisa: ...Me too ...More than before, probably.
Shibasaki Ken: Haha, I have to work harder. Ahー, today has become the best anniversary ever!
Takamizawa Arisa: (That should be my lines. Thank you... Please treat me well from now onward too, Shibasaki-kun.)

The Feelings I Want to Convey Chapter 6
Tumblr media
The day of the live broadcastー
Minami: (I wonder if I can handle this broadcast properly...)
Minami: (I’ve been messing up lately... And I can’t botch this broadcast...)
Tumblr media
Mona: Good morningー, Minami-kun
Minami: Mona... Good morning.
Mona: What’s wrong? You seem down.
Mona: Is it because you’re even more nervous from the live broadcast?
Minami: So, it’s obvious...
Mona: I can see it from the state you’re in.
Minami: Do I really look that nervous...? I’m hopeless...
Mona: I really think you should relax!
Mona: I don’t think it’s a bad thing to be tensed. It’s worse if you’re not tensed at all!
Mona: But too much of it will only end in a performance catastrophe!
Minami: Catastrophe...
Mona: With everything, it’s best to have it at a moderation, right?
Minami: I guess you’re right... That if I messed up, everything will come to nothing.
TV Department Staff: Mona-sanー, please prepare for the rehearsalー
Mona: Ah, okー
Mona: I’ll see you later!
Minami: Yup, good luck!
Tumblr media
Minami: What do I do now... I’m worrying needlessly...
Minami: (What Mona said was right but...)
Minami: (The more conscious I am of it, the more distinct my mistakes will be...)
Minami: Because today’s a live broadcast... I absolutely cannot fail.
Minami: Just focus... Focus...
Tumblr media
TV Department Staff: Minami-san, you can rehearse nowー
Minami: Please treat me well!
Director: Yea, likewiseー
Director: Please tell me if there’s anything that needs to be changed during the performance ー
Minami: Nothing has been revised since the communication beforehand
Director: Alright, so nothingー Are there any matters you want to clarifyー?
Minami: E-Everything’s fine!
Director: ‘Aightー, if there’s anything that concerned you during the rehearsal, bring it up, ‘kayー. Well then, let’s begin.
Minami: Yup!
Minami: (Urmー I’ll come out from the right side of the stage... Huh, was it from my right or the audience’s right...?
Director: Minami-kun, we’re on stand-byー
Minami: I-I’m sorry!
Tumblr media
Minami: (So it’s from this direction...)
Director: You were a little late thereー
Minami: Eh, I’m sorry!
Tumblr media
Director: Minami-kunー, are you alright? You kind of made a lot of tiny mistakes
Minami: I’m so sorry... I will revise it suitably until the actual performance...
Director: You seem really anxious. Don’t be too enthusiastic, yeah?
Director: If you perform as per normal, everything will be fine.
Minami: Alright...
Minami: (The way it is now... It happened again... Even though it’s the live broadcast...)

A Present of Hidden Feelings Chapter 6
Tumblr media
After school of that dayー
Takamizawa Arisa: (In the end, I wasn’t able to talk to Shibasaki-kun properly during our breaks and lunch...)
Takamizawa Arisa: (At this rate, I won’t be able to ask him anything at all...)
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: Arisa-chan!
Takamizawa Arisa: Shibasaki-kun...
Shibasaki Ken: I felt like you were acting strange today.
Shibasaki Ken: Arisa-chan, did you have something you wanted to ask me?
Takamizawa Arisa: Eh
Shibasaki Ken: It’s not just today, you were acting weird for a while now and I got worried.
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: I’m weird...? The weird one here is you!
Shibasaki Ken: Me?
Takamizawa Arisa: ...Till now you would be insistently sending me messages but you don’t do that anymore!
Takamizawa Arisa: After school and during breaks too...!
Takamizawa Arisa: And you head back quickly. ...Always busy with things to do.
Takamizawa Arisa: (Oh no... My voice’s shaking. If I cry or something, that’ll be so lame.)
Takamizawa Arisa: And so, I wanted to ask.
Shibasaki Ken: What did you want to ask?
Takamizawa Arisa: The girl said that you treated her to pasta.
Takamizawa Arisa: I was unnecessarily worrying over about whether she went to your house or something.
Takamizawa Arisa: And thought that I had to clarify with you but it was scary.
Shibasaki Ken: Arisa-chan...
Takamizawa Arisa: If there’s anything you want to tell me, you can, soー
Shibasaki Ken: Stop stop!
Takamizawa Arisa: ...Eh?
Shibasaki Ken: Ah... So that’s what it was... I’m sorry, Arisa-chan
Shibasaki Ken: I noticed how weird you were acting but I didn’t do anything about it.
Shibasaki Ken: I didn’t intend on worrying you.
Shibasaki Ken: The reason why I couldn’t message you recently isー because I was at a part-time job.
Takamizawa Arisa: Eh, a part-time job...?
Shibasaki Ken: I told you we’ve been together for almost a year right?
Shibasaki Ken: For the anniversary, I wanted to get a present for you
Shibasaki Ken: so recently, I really crammed all my shifts together.
Takamizawa Arisa: S-So when that girl said she would go eat there again...
Shibasaki Ken: She meant the cafe I work at. Everyone thought it’d be funny to go.
Takamizawa Arisa: Cafe... So that was it...
Takamizawa Arisa: (Everything he did was for me...?)
Takamizawa Arisa: Ah... that was what happened...
Shibasaki Ken: I should have told you about the part-time work earlier. Sorry about it?
Takamizawa Arisa: Yeah, you should have. I... I misunderstood.
Shibasaki Ken: I’m really sorry! For that bit, look forward to our anniversary date, yeah?
Shibasaki Ken: Ah, the time...! Arisa-chan, I’ll message you later, alright!
Takamizawa Arisa:Y-Yeah... Good luck on work!
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: (I’m so glad that I was able to ask about it...)
Takamizawa Arisa: (Shibasaki-kun was working so hard to get me a present... I’m so happy.)
Takamizawa Arisa: (I want to get him something too!)
Takamizawa Arisa: (But even if I did find a part-time job, I wouldn’t make it in time for our anniversary date.)
Takamizawa Arisa: (I wonder if I could do something as a surprise...?)
Takamizawa Arisa: Is there something a person would receive from their partner that would make them really happy...?
Takamizawa Arisa: (What made me happy was...)
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: Ah...!
Takamizawa Arisa: (T-That...! B-But... I was elated so...)
Takamizawa Arisa: (If the date went really well... that’ll be fine, right?)

The Feelings I Want to Convey Chapter 5
Tumblr media
A few days laterー
Minami: Haah...
Tumblr media
Minami: (Was last week’s recording alright the way it was...)
Minami: (The director said it was OK but a failure is still a failure...)
Dance Teacher: Minami-kun~? You don’t seem well today?
Minami: I-I’m sorry...
Dance Teacher: No no, you have to smile!
Dance Teacher:  If you can’t do that in practice, you won’t be able to do it in the actual performance, right~
Minami: ...Alright!
Tumblr media
Dance Teacher: Hmー, no matter what, you don’t seem to be in a good condition today.
Dance Teacher: Are you ill?
Minami: N-No... That’s not it.
Minami: I’m sorry... I was thinking about how I should avoid mistakes but that made other things slip my mind...
Minami: (It was the same for last week’s recording)
Minami: (I was focusing too much on the parts I was bad at and neglected the step...)
Dance Teacher: Well, it’s only human to have moments where we’re not up to par. Let’s just end the lesson earlier today!
Minami: ...Understood.
Tumblr media
Minami: I wasn’t able to do it well...
Minami: (It’s also about the recording but... Ever since it was decided that I would perform at the 『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』 , I couldn’t focus...)
Minami: (And I thought it was a good thing when I received the offer...)
Minami: The way that I am now would just mess up the live...
Minami: I have to work even harder...
A few days laterー
Tumblr media
Mona: Oh? Minami-kun?
Minami: Mona! It’s been a while.
Mona: It hasー Are you also here for the preparatory meeting for the live broadcast of the special programme?
Minami: Yes yes, so I’d be with you.
Mona: We’ve co-starred since 『HoneyPlay Idol Festival』, right? Looking forward to working with youー
Minami: Yup, likewise!
Mona: Speaking of whichー, why’re you appearing in 『 HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live 』?
Minami: Eh? I asked about it when I received the offer from a sponsor but...
Mona: Ahー ... So, it’s the same with you.
Minami: I don’t know who it came from but...
Mona: The LIPxLIP duo had the same thing right?
Mona: To co-star with them... Just thinking about it exhausts me
Minami: A-Ahaha...
Mona: Well, I can get my motivation from the huge stage!
Mona: This time, we have to advertise for the special programme so I have to give it my all! Minami: Y-Yeah...
Minami: (I don’t think Mona feels the pressure...?)
Mona: ...?
TV Department Staff: Sorry to keep you all waiting ー !
TV Department Staff: We’ve finished preparing the meeting room so for those related, please make your way insideー
Mona: Ah, guess we’re heading in
Mona: Coming, Minami-kun?
Minami: ...Yeah.
Minami: (I can’t mess this up.)

A Present of Hidden Feelings Chapter 5
Tumblr media
After thatー
Takamizawa Arisa: (I should really talk to Shibasaki-kun about this...)
Yamamoto Koudai: Takamizawa-san.
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: Eh, Yamamoto-kun? Is something wrong?
Yamamoto Koudai: You walked off in a different direction to your house and I guessed you’d be here.
Yamamoto Koudai: I was worried because you’ve acting a little strange lately.
Takamizawa Arisa: That isー
Yamamoto Koudai: You’re troubled because of what’s going on with Shibaken, right?
Takamizawa Arisa: ! How did you...
Yamamoto Koudai: I knew it. I heard what that girl said too.
Takamizawa Arisa: ...Yeah, it’s about Shibasaki-kun
Yamamoto Koudai: If this is meddlesome, I apologise.
Yamamoto Koudai: But, if something happened, I don’t mind listening, you know?
Takamizawa Arisa: ...Is it really ok with you?
Takamizawa Arisa: The truth is... Recently, I feel like Shibasaki-kun���s texts has been lessening.
Takamizawa Arisa: Previously, he’d message me persistently but now, once school ends, he doesn’t do it at all.
Takamizawa Arisa: Plus, he seems busy after school, on break and so on...
Yamamoto Koudai: Yeah
Takamizawa Arisa: And also! Before this, the girl was talking to Shibasaki-kun about how he treated her to pasta...
Yamamoto Koudai: I see
Takamizawa Arisa: I wanted to confirm to know what actually happened but it’s scary...
Takamizawa Arisa: (Once I started talking, I couldn’t stop. I was really worried about this...)
Takamizawa Arisa: In the worst case scenarioー If Shibasaki-kun returned to who he was like beforeー
Yamamoto Koudai: I don’t think that’ll happen so don’t worry about it?
Yamamoto Koudai: You know, ever since he met you, he’s changed.
Yamamoto Koudai: So I don’t think he’d become the careless person he once was.
Yamamoto Koudai: That’s why if there are still things that bother you, it’ll be better to ask the person himself about it.
Takamizawa Arisa: ......
Yamamoto Koudai: Also, you have to convey what you want to say.
Yamamoto Koudai: ‘Cause we don’t know what goes on inside your head.
Takamizawa Arisa: (He’s right... I have to say what I’m feeling.)
Yamamoto Koudai: If you get uneasy and wonder what to do, isn’t it better to just get angry?
Takamizawa Arisa: I... guess so. Yeah, I’ll try confronting Shibasaki-kun about it. Thank you, Yamamoto-kun.
Yamamoto Koudai: No problem.
Takamizawa Arisa: (I have to ascertain what happened with Shibasaki-kun!)
The next dayー
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: Y’know yesterday, Kuro yawned and turned over to their back.
Takamizawa Arisa: Y-Yeah...
Takamizawa Arisa: (Even though I made up my mind to ask him about it today!)
Takamizawa Arisa: (When I was about to ask him, I wasn’t able to gather up my courage at all...)
Shibasaki Ken: Aizou saw it and started taking pictures of them. The way that guy was taking the pictures made me wonder what’s up with him.
Takamizawa Arisa: Is that so...
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: ...Arisa-chan, did something happen?
Takamizawa Arisa: N-No...
Shibasaki Ken: But you’re acting differently than normal?
Takamizawa Arisa: (I’m the one who wants to know what happened...)
Takamizawa Arisa: Nothing is wrong, really...!
Shibasaki Ken: I see, if that’s so...
Takamizawa Arisa: (Haah... In the end, I wasn’t able to ask him at all...)

The Feelings I Want to Convey Chapter 4
Tumblr media
The day of the recordingー
Director: Start walking from this side of the neighbourhood and introduce the shop while doing so
Tumblr media
Minami: I understand.
Director: Then, once you reach the park, stop temporarily. Walk until the place the food truck is at.
Director: When we capture your impressions of the crepe, it’s just a performance so good luck on that!
Minami: U-Understood!
Minami: (Uuh... I’m getting nervous...)
Minami: (I already drilled the script and performance all into my head but until the recording starts, I have to revise all of it diligently...)
Tumblr media
Director: Alrightー With that, we’ll be starting the takeー
Director: 5, 4, 3...
Reporter: Good afternoon everyoneー! It’s time for 『Today’s sweets in the streets』!
Reporter: The star of the day is Minami-sanー!
Minami: Good afternoon, all of you! Please treat me well today!
Reporter: He’s not just a fated talent, Minami also performs on stage...
Reporter: Answer frankly, do you like sweet things?
Minami: Yes I do, I eat loads of sweet stuff!
Reporter: How wonderful! What we’ll be presenting today is this talk-of-the-town crepe shop!
Reporter: Of course there will be the orthodox items but there are loads of ingredients that will be different!
Minami: Different ingredients... I wonder what kind of crepe that will be...?
Reporter: That’s something to look forward to once we reach the shop!
Tumblr media
Director: Yup OK~While we’re heading there, let’s take a breather.
Minami: (I’m so glad I wasn’t at a loss of words or said something or weird...)
Minami: While I’m resting, I should review the performance...
Director: Minami-kun, the first half went great!
Minami: Ah, thank you for your kind words.
Director: When we had our briefing session, you seemed really stressed so I was a little worried for you, but I see now that that was unnecessary!
Minami: Y-You noticed that?
Director: Yeah. You need an observing eye for this job, y’know!
Director: Do your best to ensure that the latter half goes that well~
Minami: ...I have to work hard to ensure that I won’t mess up later.
Final stage of recordingー
Reporter: Now, the time where we have to part is near...
Reporter: From here, I’ll pass it to Minami-san to say his bit!
Minami: Yes! It has been decided that I will be performing for 『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』...
Minami: To all the people watching on TV, please come by all means!
Reporter: Wah~! Congratulations!
Reporter: And what’s more! In this place, would you show us a little bit of that performance!?
Tumblr media
Minami: Yes, though I really only can show a little of the dancing and singing.
Minami: (Uuh... Don’t mess this up, me...)
Reporter: Please do so!
Minami: Yes!
Minami: 1, 2, 3...
Reporter: Ah...
Tumblr media
Minami: Uwah!?
Minami: (I used too much force...!? I have to stand firm somehow...!)
Minami: Uh... S-Something like this.
Minami: (I didn’t really fall down but... I think we might have to do a re-take...)
Reporter: Thank you for the lovely performance! I’m excited for the real thing!
Reporter: And that’s it for 『Today’s sweets in the streets』 . Look forward to next time~♪ 
Director: Yup OK! Good word everyone ~!
Minami: U-Urm! Director-san!
Director: Waowー Nice performance, Minami-kun!
Director: That was a nerve-wreaking moment but wasn’t that a great character trait you showed? OK, OK!
Minami: Y-Yes, it was...
Minami: (I guess... that went well...?)

A Present of Hidden Feelings Chapter 4
Tumblr media
After schoolー
Tumblr media
Enomoto Kotarou: Oiー, Shibaken. Guess you’re headin’ back?
Shibasaki Ken: Ouhー
Enomoto Kotarou: But I was just talkin’ to Koudai about how we could drop by that hamburger shop we couldn’t go to before.
Enomoto Kotarou: You’re comin’ too, yeah?
Shibasaki Ken: Ahー, I have to pass this time too.
Enomoto Kotarou: Eh, are you serious?
Shibasaki Ken: I have things going on after this.
Yamamoto Koudai: Shibaken, you seem pretty busy lately.
Shibasaki Ken: A little, yeah.
Takamizawa Arisa: Shibasaki-kun... What is this “thing”?
Shibasaki Ken: Hmー, for now, it’s a secret♪
Takamizawa Arisa: Before this, you headed back because you also had things to do, right?
Enomoto Kotarou: So even you have stuff that you can’t tell us about, huh.
Shibasaki Ken: I guess soー? Well then, I have to hurry off.
Enomoto Kotarou: Ah, oi!
Enomoto Kotarou: Whenever we make detours, he’d be the most enthusiastic one to do it
Setoguchi Hina: I wonder what’s going on with him?
Enomoto Kotarou: Takamizawa, do you know what’s up with him?
Takamizawa Arisa: Not at all... I don’t know either...
Setoguchi Hina: I see.
Yamamoto Koudai: But since it’s Shibaken, if anything happened, he would tell us.
Yamamoto Koudai: I guess it’ll just be us making detours on our way home.
Enomoto Kotarou: Guess you’re rightー
Enomoto Kotarou: ‘Aight, let’s not crowd around. Off we go!
Setoguchi Hina: Wait for us, Kotarou!
Takamizawa Arisa: (I’m his girlfriend. Why don’t I know what he’s been doing?)
Female Student: Ehー How did you know that~?
Takamizawa Arisa: ...!
Takamizawa Arisa: (Is she the girl Shibasaki-kun was talking to...?)
Male Student: I kinda saw you and Shibaken leave the shop together.
Takamizawa Arisa: Ah...
Female Student: Oh psh, so you’ve seen that. After this, I’m heading to where he is again todayー
Male Student: Was the pasta good?
Female Student: It was yummy~♪
Takamizawa Arisa: (After this...? Did he reject us because of that?)
Takamizawa Arisa: (Shibasaki-kun... Why did you do that?)
Tumblr media
Yamamoto Koudai: Are you okay?
Takamizawa Arisa: Ah, yeah...
Takamizawa Arisa: (...Can I believe in you?)
Tumblr media
Enomoto Kotarou: We ended up in Hoshiya.
Setoguchi Hina: Did we not discuss earlier how we’d go to the new shop when Shibasaki-kun was able to?
Enomoto Kotarou: I guess... But, I really wonder what’s this business he’s up to.
Setoguchi Hina: I don’t know but... If we left him behind, I’d feel really bad for him
Yamamoto Koudai: Yeah we would. Let’s invite him again.
Tumblr media
Enomoto Kotarou: When that time comes and he rejects us again, I’ll force the reason out of him!
Takamizawa Arisa: (I wonder whether if he was really able to come today? ...Oh no, I’m becoming anxious.)
Yamamoto Koudai: ......

The Feelings I Want to Convey Chapter 3
Tumblr media
A few days laterー
Minami: And this should be everything for the morning...
Minami: I’m free until afternoon’s lesson but... I don’t think there’ll be enough time to return to the office.
Person distributing leaflets: Here is the new menu! Please come if you’re able to!
Minami: Eh, aah... Thank you.
Tumblr media
Minami: (Oh... There’s a seasonal cake. How pretty...)
Minami: I guess once lunch has ended, I’ll adjust my schedule.
Tumblr media
Minami: What a nice, calming shop~ And the cake was delightful too so I’ll take a good picture.
Minami: ...Ah, I have to check my schedule
Minami: (I have evening lessons today... For next week... It’s completely lessons until the weekend.)
Minami: (And alongside work, I generally promote 『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』 .)
Minami: (Well, it’s about a month until the live.)
Minami: And at the end of next week... I have to record for work.
Minami: I wonder if... I can do it well... 『Your smile’s too stiff』is what I’m always told...
Employee: Excuse me sir, would you like a refill of tea?
Minami: Huh? Ah...!
Minami: P-Please do so...
The following weekー
Tumblr media
Minami: I-I’m Minami! I look forward to working with all of you this recording session!
Filming Staff: Please treat us wellー
Camera Man: You’re Minami-kun right? Likewise.
Minami: Yes!
Camera Man: ‘Aight then, let’s get into it.
Minami: Please do so!
Tumblr media
Camera Man: ...Alright, so we’ll leave it at this. Take a short break and then, head outside.
Minami: U-Understood!
Camera Man: Hey Minami-kun, are you frequently told that 『Your smile’s too stiff』 ?
Minami: ...I’m guessing it was stiff just now?
Camera Man: Yes it was, I was wondering if you could at least smile naturally.
Minami: I’m sorry...
Camera Man: It’s fine it’s fine. It doesn’t seem like the smiling bit is that important right now.
Camera Man: ‘Cause I think that if we aimed at your『fresh acting』, I think it’d go well.
Minami: ? Hu-Huh...
Camera Man: It’d be nice if you could smile more naturally when we’ll filming outside.
Minami: Y-Yes... I’ll do my best.
Tumblr media
Camera Man: Yup OKー! Minami-kun, you’ve worked hard todayー
Minami: Thank you so much!
Minami: In the end, we had to do many retakes and for that, I am very sorry.
Camera Man: I said it was fineー. If I wasn’t even able to understand, I wouldn’t be able to deliver, you know.
Minami: But it’s an inconvenience that I wasn’t able to make a proper smile...
Camera Man: Well, it turned into a presentation on your freshness and innocence so don’t worry too much about it.
Camera Man: But...if there was another opportunity, I would be really glad to capture a more natural smile of yours.
Minami: Uuh... I’ll work on it!
Camera Man: That’s cool! I’ll lay that open. Good work today~
Minami: Thank you for your hard work!
Minami: ......
Minami: (I wasn’t able to smile properly in the end...)
Minami: (And I exceeded the time by a lot... I have to be better at this...)
Minami: To avoid messing up, I have to work much harder.

A Present of Hidden Feelings Chapter 3
Tumblr media
A few days laterー
Takamizawa Arisa: (Haah... I’m definitely not imagining it. Shibasaki-kun’s texts have really reduced...)
Takamizawa Arisa: (Is he avoiding me...? Plus lately, we haven’t been having any after school dates.)
Takamizawa Arisa: (But when I meet him in school, he’s acting the way he always is.)
Takamizawa Arisa: (Shibasaki-kun, what’s on your mind?)
Takamizawa Arisa: (And we don’t communicate in the weekends too. ...I’m feeling a little uneasy.)
Takamizawa Arisa: (But I don’t think he hates me because he’s been sending『Good night』 messages every day.)
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: ......
Takamizawa Arisa: (Ah, there’s no point in worrying alone...)
Takamizawa Arisa: Obviously, I have to ask the guy himself!
Takamizawa Arisa: (I wonder where he is?)
Female Student: Ah, Shibaken!
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: Hm, what’s up~?
Takamizawa Arisa: (Ah, there he is! But... he’s with a girl from the same class as him...?)
Female Student: Thank you for yesterday! The pasta was super yummy, y’know! I would go again!
Shibasaki Ken: Reallyー? Well, I’ll be waitin’. Next time too, you’ll be given a perfect treatー
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: Eh
Takamizawa Arisa: (He was with her yesterday? ...With pasta he made?)
Female Student: Yay! I’m looking forward to it!
Takamizawa Arisa: (She would go again... It’s not to his house, is it?)
Takamizawa Arisa: (When he wasn’t texting me, was it because he had called her over to his house...?)
Takamizawa Arisa: (But, if it was Shibasaki-kun... He did play around with girls before.)
Takamizawa Arisa: (...No, how horrid of me. I’m doubting him... I’m the worstー)
Tumblr media
Shibasaki Ken: Oh, Arisa-chan.
Takamizawa Arisa: Ah.
Shibasaki Ken: Why’re you here? Are you feeling well?
Takamizawa Arisa: (What’s up with that girl from before? I wonder if I should ask that? But...)
Takamizawa Arisa: ...It’s nothing.
Shibasaki Ken: Really? That’s not the face where everything’s alright though.
Shibasaki Ken: If there’s something troubling you, tell me.
Takamizawa Arisa: (It’s because it’s about you, I can’t ask it...)
Takamizawa Arisa: (Like did that girl go to your house? Or why so? ...)
Takamizawa Arisa: (I really want to ask all that)
Takamizawa Arisa: I’m fine. Aren’t you worrying a little too much?
Shibasaki Ken: Well, that’s ‘cause I want to know everything about you.
Takamizawa Arisa: ...!
Takamizawa Arisa: (Saying that so calmly.... How sneaky.)
Shibasaki Ken: ...Ah, speaking of which
Shibasaki Ken: From before, you went to the hamburger shop with Kotarou and the rest, right?
Shibasaki Ken: How was it?
Takamizawa Arisa: In the end, we didn’t go.
Takamizawa Arisa: Because you weren’t there, we decided to go at the next chance.
Shibasaki Ken: Ahー Is that so. That’s my bad.
Shibasaki Ken: I couldn’t avoid the thing I had to do that day.
Takamizawa Arisa: (Hey, so what’s that thing? Is it to do with that girl?)
Shibasaki Ken: So, I’ll make up for it!
Takamizawa Arisa: (...And why can’t you make it for our after school dates?)
Takamizawa Arisa: (If only I was able to ask all that straightforwardly...)
Shibasaki Ken: Ah, I have to return to the classroom
Takamizawa Arisa: Ah, me too... I haven’t prepared for the next class.
Shibasaki Ken: I see, I’ll see you later then!
Tumblr media
Takamizawa Arisa: (I’m such a coward.)

The Feelings I Want to Convey Chapter 2
Tumblr media
After the compilationー
Aizou: Please come inー
Tumblr media
Minami: Thank you for your hard work, you two!
Aizou: Ouhー You too
Yuujirou: Nice work, Minami
Aizou: It was rough, but I would say we handled the performance well!
Minami: I’m really glad I didn’t make any blunders... My heart’s still thumping from it
Yuujirou: So, is there something you want to tell us?
Minami: Ah, yes. Do you two have time?
Minami: It’s still weighing on my mind, the thing we were talking about...
Aizou: The thing about Yuujirou lacking in modesty?
Yuujirou: ...I didn’t think that Minami was also trying to pick a fight with me
Minami: T-That’s not what I meant!?
Tumblr media
Aizou: I’m kidding. It’s about  『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』 , right?
Minami: Yes yes.
Yuujirou: ...Aizou, that was very mean of you.
Aizou: Can’t you take a joke
Minami: Hey hey...
Minami: Anyway, we talked about the  『HoneyPlay 1st Anniversary Live』 ‘s sponsor but...
Minami: Did you manage to talk to that person, Yuujirou?
Yuujirou: I could only hear them talk to the company president and I didn’t see their face.
Yuujirou: However, it seemed like they were really trying their intimidation. Like a manner of speaking with a viewpoint of superiority...
Yuujirou: Ahー! Remembering it really pisses me off!
Aizou: Why’re you getting all grumpy? Did you not have enough sweet stuff?
Yuujirou: Shut up! For your information, they weren’t just talking about me.
Minami: And that is...
Yuujirou: Yeah, they talked about Aizou and you and... you know.
Aizou: And that’s why I said to say something if it’s that important!
Yuujirou: If I did when you were straying off-course, well, it’s such an unnecessary thing to think about, don’t you think?
Aizou: I guess you’re right but...
Aizou: Oh right, was that the person who offered us and Minami that offer?
Yuujirou: I don’t have any definitive proof but the probability’s high.
Minami: I wonder what kind of person they are...?
Yuujirou: They got along well with the president. So probably some wonderful influential figure?
Minami: I don’t think someone that amazing would give me an offer and exist...
Minami: (Or rather, I’m finding less and less reasons for me to be given an offer!)
Minami: I-If that was so... That’s would really stress me out...
Yuujirou: You’re always stressed though.
Aizou: Social anxiety won’t just disappear like that. It must be tough on you, right?
Minami: You’re not wrong but... How do I put this... There’s something else? Or it seems like that
Aizou: That’s a problem for someone else.
Aizou: As long as we’ve got the stage, we just got to give our best performance, right?
Yuujirou: Well, we have to make them speechless with what they see too.
Minami: Both of you are so... confident.
Minami: (In any case... it’s fact that I have expectations on me.)
Minami: (I have to make sure I don’t mess anything up...)
Tumblr media
Aizou: Ouh. Ms. Uchida’s here. We have to hurry or we’ll get scolded.
Yuujirou: Hm, let’s do so. See you, Minami.
Minami: Ah, yes! Good work today!
