[College Classroom – Last Day Before Summer Break]
Keito (MC)
(Last day of college before summer break.)
Keito (MC)
(The campus felt lighter… freer.)
Keito (MC)
(But my heart? Still pounding.)
[There they were. Four girls… absolute stunners. Yuki. Rumi. Aliza. Erika.]
Keito (MC)
(They are college classmates… but we barely talked.)
[Yuki laughs quietly with Erika, while Rumi spins her phone around and Aliza adjusts her tank top casually.]
Keito (MC)
(I tried focusing on the lecture, but their voices kept drifting back.)
Yuki (C1)
Girls let's go shopping after class.
Yuki (C1)
I need a new swimsuit.
Erika (C2)
Eh w-will we have time?
Erika (C2)
I still haven’t packed…
Yuki (C1)
You’ll pack tonight. Priorities, Erika~
Yuki (C1)
What about you Rumi & Aliza?
Rumi (C3)
I’m gonna pick the loudest neon bikini ever.
Aliza (C4)
Let's also go to the Cafe and eat lots of sweets❤︎
(The four of them laughed, and for a moment, it felt like the classroom brightened.)
Keito (MC)
Keito (Narration): They’re so close.
Keito (MC)
Effortless. Beautiful. Meanwhile I’m just… me.
[A guy who still panics ordering at Starbucks.]
[Before I could overthink again, our professor]
Cleon
Class dismissed and enjoy your summer break☀︎
Keito (MC)
(I grabbed my bag and stepped out, only to hear footsteps behind me.)
Keito (MC)
(We locked eyes for half a second before she gave me a polite nod.)
Yuki (C1)
Have a nice break, Keito.
Keito (MC)
(She… knew my name?)
Keito (MC)
O-Oh uh, yeah. You too.
Keito (MC)
(I mentally punched myself. Smooth. Very smooth.)
Keito (MC)
(Rumi skipped past, throwing a teasing grin.)
Rumi (C3)
Keitooo, don’t get too lonely this summer~
Erika (C2)
R-Rumi! Don’t tease him like that!
[Aliza gave me one quick, amused glance before the four disappeared into the escalator crowd.]
Keito (MC)
(Just classmates. Nothing more. At least... that’s what I thought.)
Haruto (Keito CM1)
Hey Keito, wait up.
Haruto (Keito CM1)
Do you wanna go to the game room?
Keito (MC)
I have to go home early today.
Haruto (Keito CM1)
Why so rush bro..
Daichi (CM2)
He is rushing to meet his children's sweethearts. Lol…
Daichi (CM2)
I’m going to miss you all; I’m off to Seoul tomorrow.
Haruto (Keito CM1)
Lucky you, I will have to work throughout the summer break.
Haruto (Keito CM1)
Keito is going to the Island with five beauties.
Daichi (CM2)
I’m going there to learn business.
Daichi (CM2)
And I heard that my dad's friends have a beautiful daughter ☻.
Haruto (Keito CM1)
Stop saying anything else☹︎..
Haruto (Keito CM1)
Why do I have to work while you guys are gonna enjoy ☹︎
Keito (MC)
Let’s do something fun when we get back.
Keito (MC)
See you guys later.
[Evening | Keito’s House]
(The front door slammed open.)
Marina (CH1)
Keito, we’re here!
Keito (MC)
You guys said 7 PM. It’s 5:30.
Nanami (CH2)
We came early so you can carry our bags.
(Inori poking my shoulder)
Inori (CH4)
You’ll survive.
Keito (MC)
I’m driving you five all over town.
Keito (MC)
At least let me breathe.
Inori (CH4)
You love it. Admit it.
Chika (CH5)
Hehe~ I’m calling shotgun!
Asami (CH3)
Let’s just go…
Asami (CH3)
I want to check out the Swimsuit store too.✨
[Shopping Mall – Girls Running Wild]
Keito (MC)
(I should’ve known better…)
Keito (MC)
(When you bring five childhood friends to a shopping spree before vacation?)
Keito (MC)
(You're not escaping alive.)
[Nanami held up three outfits same style, different colors.]
Nanami (CH2)
Keito~ Which one looks hotter?
Keito (MC)
You’re holding the same outfit in three colors…
[Meanwhile Inori waved a dangerously tiny bikini.]
Inori (CH4)
Ooooh I’m getting this micro bikini.
Inori (CH4)
Just watch the guys at the beach drool.
Asami (CH3)
I’ll take this sheer nightgown.
Keito (MC)
Do you WANT me to have a heart attack?
[Asami walked by holding a sheer black nightgown.]
Keito (MC)
Is that… even legal to wear?
Asami (CH3)
I sleep better when it’s breezy.
Keito (MC)
(I choked on air again.)
Keito (MC)
(Marina was already stacking swimsuits on my arms.)
Marina (CH1)
Here. Hold this.
Keito (MC)
You said two outfits each!
Marina (CH1)
I changed my mind.
[Chika ran over with bags of bath products.]
Chika (CH5)
Keito! Smell this bath bomb!
Chika (CH5)
It smells like strawberries!
Keito (MC)
I can’t smell anything my face is buried under bags!
[Kana – childhood neighbor who works part-time at the lingerie store.]
Kane (Neighbor)
Asami-chan!
Kane (Neighbor)
You’re buying this?
Kane (Neighbor)
You’re bolder than you look~
[Asami’s ears turned pink.]
[I nearly dropped the bags.]

[After shopping | Keito’s House Total Chaos]
(We reached home at 10 PM.)
(My arms felt like noodles.)
Keito (MC)
You girls bought enough for a three-month vacation…
Marina (CH1)
You’ll thank us later.
Chika (CH5)
This one is my bikini for day one!
Nanami (CH2)
I’m sleeping in Keito’s room tonight.
Chika (CH5)
You always take his bed!
Nanami (CH2)
Because I actually wake up early!
Chika (CH5)
Not my problem!
Inori (CH4)
Wow, they’re fighting already.
Asami (CH3)
Should I… intervene?
Keito (MC)
Let them tire each other out.
Keito (MC)
(They argued until 2 AM.)
Keito (MC)
(Over who gets my bed.)
Keito (MC)
(Who sleeps near me?)
Keito (MC)
(Who gets the window seat on the plane.)
Keito (MC)
(I prayed for sleep. I got none.)
[Morning | Keito’s Room – Disaster 2]
📱📣 BEEP BEEP BEEP – 9:30 AM
Keito (MC)
Our flight is at noon!
〉Marina shot up like a zombie〈
Marina (CH1)
Huh? What where?
Nanami (CH2)
We overslept?!
Nanami (CH2)
Keito, why didn’t you wake us?!
Keito (MC)
I thought YOU would wake ME!
Chika (CH5)
My hair! My makeup!
Inori (CH4)
(already dressed) Relax~
Inori (CH4)
I’ve been ready for twenty minutes.
(Asami rushed in with coffee.)
Keito (MC)
You’re a lifesaver.
Asami (CH3)
(tiny smile) I know.
🏠Mrs. Tanaka – The Neighbor
Mrs. Tanaka
Why are you and the girls leaving at 9 in the morning?
Keito (MC)
We are going on a vacation.
Mrs. Tanaka
Sure… vacation.
🚕Takeda – The Taxi Driver
Takeda (Texi Driver)
Kid… are all five of them your girlfriends
Keito (MC)
Nooo, they are my friends.
Takeda (Texi Driver)
This ride just got interesting.
[Airport | Barely Made It]
Nanami almost fought a tourist.
Inori ate someone’s croissant by accident.
Marina (CH1)
Alright everyone… deep breath. We made it.
Chika (CH5)
Summer vacation, here we come~!
Inori (CH4)
Beach. Sun. Freedom!
Nanami (CH2)
And NO studying.
(Asami adjusted her hair calmly.)
Asami (CH3)
Okinawa will be beautiful.
(Then Marina leaned closer to me.)
Marina (CH1)
(softly) Keito… ready for paradise?
CH: 03
[Airport Security Line – Still in Tokyo]
Keito (MC)
(The airport was already a battlefield.)
Keito (MC)
(Dragging five girls through check-in felt like guiding baby ducks…)
Keito (MC)
(If baby ducks carried twelve suitcases and argued nonstop.)
Haruka (Airport Attendant🛩)
Next, please! Boarding passes.
Nanami (CH2)
Keito, where’s my passport?!
Keito (MC)
You literally handed it to the cat this morning.
Chika (CH5)
I wanted to see if the cat could travel with us.
Haruka (Airport Attendant🛩)
(smiling professionally) You all seem… energetic.
Marina (CH1)
That’s one way to call it.
Asami (CH3)
(bowing politely) I’m sorry…
Asami (CH3)
We’re a handful.
(Haruka stamped our documents like she was praying for us.)
[Boarding Gate – Final Call]
A tall man in a suit walked by, slowing down when he saw the girls.
Tatsuya (business traveler)
Uh… Are you all models?
Nanami (CH2)
No. We’re on vacation.
Tatsuya (business traveler)
Lucky guy, traveling with so many beauties.
Keito (MC)
(He gave me a thumbs-up.)
Keito (MC)
Please don’t encourage them.
[Inside the Airplane – Flying Over Okinawa]
The moment we entered Okinawa’s airspace, everything changed.
Chika (CH5)
(pressing her face to the window) LOOK! LOOK!
Chika (CH5)
The water is soooo BLUE!!
Nanami (CH2)
The ocean looks fake…
Nanami (CH2)
like a screensaver.
Inori (CH4)
Is that little island over there are those private villas?
Asami (CH3)
(soft voice) I want to live here forever…
Marina (CH1)
(smirking at me) So… who booked our place again?
Keito (MC)
Don’t look at me like I’m going to mess up.
Keito (MC)
I picked something good this time!
Keito (MC)
(A flight attendant stopped beside us.)
Emi (Flight Attendant)
Just checking in are you all comfortable so far?
Asami (CH3)
(nodding) Yes. Thank you.
Chika (CH5)
Can we get juice?
Nanami (CH2)
Chika, you just spilled juice five minutes ago.
Chika (CH5)
That’s why I need more…
Keito (MC)
I’m sorry… all of them.
Emi (Flight Attendant)
(laughing softly) It’s okay.
Emi (Flight Attendant)
They remind me of my younger sisters.
Nothing scary, just enough to cause chaos.
Chika (CH5)
Eeeek!! Keito!!
(She jumped onto my arm.)
Nanami (CH2)
Chika! It’s just turbulence!
Inori (CH4)
(teasing smile) Aww, look at her clinging to Keito~
Asami (CH3)
She’s always been like that.
Marina (CH1)
Guys, relax. We’re not crashing.
Chika (CH5)
But if we DO crash, I’m sitting next to Keito!
Keito (MC)
(The turbulence ended.)
