[Group Name: Toyokami Disaster Club]
mie
BREAKING NEWS.
Hana’s in love.
kanto
WHO?? Is it the cafeteria guy? The one who gave her extra fried rice?
Hana
EXCUSE YOU. no — it’s the new guy.
mie
OMG. Silent Book Boy??
kanto
Aoki the Human Mute??
Hana
DON’T CALL HIM THAT. He’s mysterious… and artistic.
mie
Bro drew a tree for two hours today. ONE tree.
kanto
He’s probably drawing how he’ll escape this school.
Hana
You both wouldn’t understand. He’s deep.
kanto
Deep in his 27th book this week.
mie
Okay but let’s not forget Kanto literally confessed to a vending machine once because it gave him two sodas.
kanto
THAT WAS A MOMENT OF WEAKNESS. And you said you wouldn’t bring that up.
Hana
And Mie cried over a K-drama ad before the episode even started.
mie
HEY. It was emotional music, okay??
Not my fault they played violins.
kanto
We’re all disasters. This group chat is a support group at this point.
mie
But Hana’s the biggest clown today for catching feelings for a dude who hasn’t said five words since April.
Aoki
…I can see this chat.
Hana
I’m moving to another country.
kanto
Screenshot this.Frame it.
Hana
I’m deleting this app.
[Scene: Toyokami High Library — Break Time ]
The library’s quiet. The sun’s warm through the window.Aoki’s sitting by himself at his usual window seat, sketching something in his notebook.Hana walks in, holding a lunchbox. She hesitates, then makes her way over.
Aoki glances up. Doesn’t say anything.
Hana
(scratching her head)
“Um… about yesterday’s group chat. Sorry about those two. I swear Mie and Kanto were dropped as kids.”
Aoki
“It’s fine. Doesn’t bother me.”
Hana
(small smile, sitting down)
“Well… I felt bad. So… I brought this.”
She places a lunchbox in front of him.
Aoki
(looking at it)
“…Why?”
Hana
“Because you always eat alone. And I had extra. Also, my cooking’s not that bad.”
Aoki blinks. Then, without a word, pushes his own plain-looking lunchbox toward her.
Hana
(laughing quietly)
“Deal. But fair warning — if your food’s better than mine, I’m stealing it.”
They start eating. No talking. Just quiet, comfortable company.
Aoki
(after a few bites)
“…Not bad.”
Hana
(grins)
“Told you. Only slightly poisonous.”
[Scene Library — Lunch Break]
Hana
Hehe! Aoki, look at this sandwich. I made it shaped like a bunny!
Hana
You gotta smile more, Aoki! Here — bunny sandwich attack!
[Suddenly… the library door SLAMS open]
mie
HANA! AOKI! Are you hiding here again?!
kanto
Sniff sniff …I smell food. FOOD!!! WHERE?! WHERE?!?!
Hana
Oh no… they found us.
mie
What are you two doing? This is a library, not a picnic park!
kanto
I don’t care if it’s a library, a zoo, or the moon — I need food! Aoki, gimme that bunny sandwich!!
kanto
Cruel. Cold. HEARTLESS.
mie
Hana! Stop feeding the silent assassin over there. He’ll turn into a sandwich monster too.
Hana
He’s cute when he eats, though!
kanto
I’m always cute.Especially when I’m eating. starts pulling out 5 rice balls from his pocket
mie
HOW many pockets do you have?! Are you a walking fridge?!
kanto
I call them… snack zones.
mie
Don’t encourage him, Aoki!
kanto
Hey Mie, you’re just jealous ‘cause you don’t have snack zones.
mie
I have plenty! They’re called my desk drawers!
Hana
Wait, you have food in your desk too!?
mie
Top drawer: candy. Second drawer: chips. Third drawer… secret.
kanto
(Eyes sparkling)
Can I see the secret one?! Is it… cake?! Is it a tiny pizza?! Is it a live chicken nugget?!
mie
No, it’s a photo of me looking amazing. But now I’m thinking of replacing it with a pizza.
mie
Don’t “smart” me, ninja boy!
Hana
Haha! You guys are the weirdest.
Librarian: from a distance SHHHHHHH!
kanto
(Whispering)
Still hungry though…
[Scene: After school at park — Soft afternoon breeze]
Aoki sits with a book in hand.Hana drops down beside him, legs swinging over the edge.
Hana
“Hey… what do you dream about?”
Aoki
“…Quiet places. No noise. Just… peace.”
A small silence.
Hana smiles, resting her head lightly on his shoulder.
Hana
“Then I’ll be your quiet.”
They sit like that, the wind gentle around them.
Aoki lowers his book, glancing at her.
Aoki
“…You don’t have to be quiet.”
Hana looks up, eyes soft.
Aoki
(quietly)
“I like your voice.”
Hana smiles — brighter than the sky.
Hana
“Then I’ll stay… just like this.”
And neither of them moves.
[Toyokami High Chat — Group: Sakura Squad 10:40 PM ]
mie
Oi Hana! Summer festival coming! If you don’t ask Aoki, I will!
Hana
Tch. Mind your business, loudmouth. I’ve got a plan.
mie
Pfft. Plan? The last time you planned, you tripped over air.
Hana
This one’s solid. Just wait and watch.
kanto
Wait… will there be takoyaki? And shaved ice? And grilled corn?? And—
mie
KANTO! Can you stop drooling for ONE second?!
kanto
Can’t help it! Festivals = FOOD HEAVEN.
mie
You’re already a dumpling with legs, if you eat more you’ll EXPLODE like a giant meatball!
kanto
Good. I’ll die happy… full of noodles.
Hana
Haha! Mie, leave him. He’s living his best life.
mie
Fine. But if he turns into a giant rice ball and rolls down the street, I’m not saving him.
kanto
I’d roll straight to the food stalls.
mie
See?! This is why we can’t have normal group chats.
Hana
Anyway — just watch me at the festival. Aoki won’t know what hit him.
mie
If it’s you tripping into a snack cart, I’m recording it.
kanto
And I’ll eat the snacks.
