“SPOTLIGHT EV: Ouka High - CHAPTER 1"


≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡　TWO YEARS AGO　≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡≡
Taichi: Hrmmm….
Tenma: Errmm…..
Juza: …..
Taichi: I give up! I’ve got no clue how to do this assignment at all!! Argh, this is starting to make me feel insane!
Tenma: You’re the one who suggested we’d do our homework in this kind of cafe.
Taichi: Come on— Studying at a fancy cafe with some good friends? Ain’t that the dream~?
Juza: … (chomp)


Taichi & Tenma: !!
Juza: Delicious…
Tenma: He ate half of that cake slice in one bite…
Taichi: Juza-san’s more focused on the grub than the grades, isn’t he.
Tenma: (sighs) …Since Juza-san’s already eating, we may as well take a little break.
Taichi: Guess we should.
Maaaan, getting to move my body like this really beats being stuck behind my school desk writing down notes all day.
Tenma: I get what you mean… Speaking of which, the athletic meet is coming up soon, isn’t it?
Juza: Will you be able to join the meet, Tenma?
Tenma: That’s the plan, since there won’t be any work for me around that time.
Juza: That so. Good to hear.
Taichi: That’s really good to hear! It’ll be a lot more fun if you join in too, Ten-chan!
Tenma: Yeah… I’m looking forward to it too.
Taichi: By the way, which group did you guys get assigned to? I’m with the Red Team!
For the athletic meet, O High assigns each class to two groups— the White or the Red Team, right? It sure would be nice if we all could be in the same Red Team though~
‘Course, if you guys are in the White Team, then I’ll be ready to take you on in a fair fight!
Tenma: I’m in Red Team.
Juza: Pretty sure I’m also in Red.
Taichi: Oh for real!? Yahoo!! We’re all on the same team then!
Alright then, we gotta band together and work hard to get Red Team all the wins in this athletic meet!
Juza: Yeah.
Tenma: Pff… You got it.

Igawa: … Ah, there you are, Tenma-kun.
Tenma: Oh, Igawa.
Taichi: Ah, Ten-chan’s Manager-san!
Juza: Did you come to pick up Tenma?
Igawa: I did. You two should come as well, I’ll be dropping everyone off at the dorm.
Juza: … Is that OK?
Igawa: Of course. Tenma-kun himself requested it so.
Taichi: Aw, Ten-chan…!
Tenma: … We’re all heading home to the same place anyway. Come on, let’s go.
Taichi: Thanks so much!
Juza: Thanks.

—— —— —— —— —— —— —— —— ——


Igawa: I apologize, Tenma-kun. I mentioned it a few days ago already, but there will be days when I can’t pick you up next week.
I can drop you off at school in the morning, but will you be alright on your way home?
Tenma: I only need to walk home, I’ll be fine.
Igawa: Still, I’m rather worried… It’s quite the distance walking from the school to the dorms, after all.
Taichi: Uhm… If that’s the case, me and Juza-san will walk home with him! Right, Juza-san?
Juza: Yeah, I don’t mind.
Tenma: You guys…
Igawa: You will? Oh, thank you very much!
If you two can keep him company, that would put me at ease.
Taichi: Leave it to us!
Tenma: …Thanks. Sorry for the trouble.
