Shizune turns mischievous and tries to open the package, Hisao scolds her, but Shizune writes on the box saying "lets play a game", wherin the rules are that they both hold the package and the one that makes the package fall carries the package all the way to the dorm. Although suspicious Hisao accepts, reasoning that 50/50 odds are the best so far for games with Shizune. On the way, Hisao accidentally touches the fingers of Shizune under the package and makes her drop it, so she brings it to the dorm, unwilling to accept Hisao's attempt to carry the package for her. He realizes that the game was an exercise in teamwork and not a competition, and that with her hands carrying the box Shizune is effectively 'silenced'. On the way back to Yamaku Shizune shivers in the cold air and Hisao offers her his jacket. She startles when his fingertips brush against her shoulders, but clumsily offers her thanks. | Shizune turns mischievous and tries to open the package, Hisao scolds her, but Shizune writes on the box saying "lets play a game", wherin the rules are that they both hold the package and the one that makes the package fall carries the package all the way to the dorm.

Sometime later Hisao is studying a sign | Sometime later Hisao is studying a sign language textbook in the cafeteria when Misha and Shizune recruit him, ostensibly for more student council work which he has neglected lately in order to study. When he reaches the office however the three play games, enjoying a respite before the stress of arranging the school's Tanabata festival. However they are interrupted by Hanako who needs a new ID card. Shizune notices her interest in the chess board and encourages her to play a game. Though magnanimous in victory Shizune subsequently beats Hanako in blitz chess and presses for greater competition, succeeding in scaring Hanako from the room. Afterwards she comments on how chess is too formulaic and that Hanako plays the game for the memories she associates with it, and as such will never be a good player. | ||
During lunch with the two Hisao and Shizune become embroiled in a disput over a rare piece of veal cutlet bread whci Shizune attemot to play rock-paper-scissors for, however the game is inconclusive and Hisao splits the food between them. Shizune comments that this feels like a hollow victory, but Misha finds it romantic. Following on Misha tells Hisao that she is behind n some classes and won't be able to attend student council in the coming days, she also reveals that she told Shizune about Hisao learning sign language, which upsets him, thinking he has been made to appear the fool. The next day he meets Shizune to assemble stalls for Tanabata and the two converse in sign after Hisao becomes tired and takes a break. Shizune reveals that she is pleased he took the step to learn, being impressed with his initiative. | |||
The next day Hisao finally delivers Kenji's package to him.Although he is unable to make him reveal its contents Kenji does instead divulge his dealings with the student council. Later Hisao and Shizune make stalls again, Shizune tells Hisao that she has stored some of the stores from the first festival to save them work, but that the reason they still have to build some is because the previous council was too weak willed. They share a meal that Shizune has prepared. Lilly arrives and Hisao is forced to tactically translate Shizune's comments towards her. He later asks about the situation between them and Shizune tells him that Lilly used to be on the student council too, but saw much of what they did as meaningless busywork, and the two fought and fell out over it. | |||
Hisao runs into Kenji again and an amusing exchange during which he removes his glasses follows. During lunch with the two girls he reflects that it is nice to have friends at Yamaku, but that he doesn't wish to intrude upon Shizune and Misha's pre-existing friendship. They head to the Shanghai where Yuuko tells them she will have to work over Tanabata and Hisao again questions how the tea-house can afford to stay open. Misha talks about how at last year's Tanabata festival they ran a noodle store with Lilly. Moreover they talk about hw Shizune transformed the student council into what it is now, and how it caused more and more members to leave.<!--(Mind that there will be more information come the next week)--> | |||
