(classroom)
*bell rings*
Yuki: Alright! Class is over!
Joker: Yuki-kun.
Joker: Won't you come have afternoon tea with me now?
Yuki: Joker-san... You came here really early today.
Yuki: The bell just rang.
Joker: Yeah. I was waiting for your class to end.
Yuki: Waiting...? But what about your class, Joker-san?
Joker: Hehe, you don't have to worry about me.
Joker: Anyway, let's hurry and have tea.
Yuki: Yes...
(Yuki: Since that day when we went out together,)
(Yuki: Every day, Joker-san has come to pick me up like this.)
(Yuki: It starts when he comes to my room to wake me up in the morning...)
(Yuki: At lunch and at the end of classes, he meets me right after the bell.)
(Yuki: And breakfast, lunch, and snacks are something special prepared just for me.)
(Yuki: And at dinner, it's not just Sonoda-san's cooking, but he also has stuff brought in from high class restaurants.)
(Yuki: I'm happy about his hospitality, but I feel like he's trying to draw me in...)
(Yuki: He hasn't just been treating me to delicious food, Joker-san himself has been stuck to me outside of class.)
(Yuki: I feel like this special treatment is a bit too much.)
Joker: What's the matter, would you rather not have afternoon tea?
Yuki: No, that's not it...
Joker: Good. By the way, today we're having Eiji's special genuine afternoon tea.
Joker: Turkey and cranberry sandwiches, egg and cucumber and salmon sandwiches, and orange and berry fruit sandwiches.
Joker: Chestnut mont blanc, lime and blackcurrant mousse, and champagne chocolat and strawberry tart.
Joker: Of course there's baked scones with a lot of clotted cream and fruit confit, all different kinds.
Joker: And to match today's weather, the black tea is a fruity blend.
Yuki: *gulp*...
Joker: Hey, doesn't it sound delicious?
Yuki: Yes... I mean, no!!
Yuki: U, um, Joker-san!
Joker: What is it?
Yuki: I'm really happy that you're preparing delicious things for me every day but...
Yuki: I don't need all this special treatment.
Yuki: It's every single day like this, I really feel guilty...
Joker: Oh, that.
Joker: Okay, Yuki-kun? Aren't you bearing the fate of this school all by yourself?
Joker: This much isn't special treatment.
Joker: More than anything, I just want to entertain you.
Yuki: Um, but, I... have to do my student council work.
Joker: Forget about that.
Yuki: I can't do that! Even though I don't have the armband right now, in my heart I'm still student council president!!
Joker: Hmm.
Joker: Then come after you finish work, I'll be waiting for you in the Durak room.
Joker: I'll make it so the scones are finished baking when you arrive.
Joker: Then, see you later.
Yuki: Oh, Joker-san!!
(Yuki: I intended to turn down his invitation and tell him about my student council work, but...)
Yuki: ...Umm, what should I do?
Tomo: Joker is totally toying with you.
Yuki: Tomo...
Tomo: Good job.
Yuki: Telling me good job, it's like you're an outsider.
Tomo: Because I am.
Yuki: Wait, you're part of this.
Yuki: Director.
Tomo: Don't say that here.
Tomo: Well, if it's Joker and you, I believe it'll work out somehow.
Yuki: Y, yeah...
Tomo: I'll just do what I can do and wing it.
Yuki: Wing it?
Tomo: I'm not the kind who goes all out.
Tomo: Anyway, you should properly accompany him so he doesn't get pissed off.
Tomo: As long as he's cooperating, it'll be okay.
Yuki: You're right.
Tomo: Then, in that case.
Yuki: Tomo...

(hallway)
Yuki: ...*siiigh*
(Yuki: So to Tomo, it looks like he's toying with me...)
(Yuki: I'm glad he didn't give us a strange look, but...)
(Yuki: Even if Joker-san declared that he likes me in front of other people, it wouldn't seem like anything but a joke...)
(Yuki: When I think about Joker-san's usual behavior, maybe it's normal to consider it the way Tomo does...)
(Yuki: But is it really okay like this...?)
(Yuki: Since the day of that date, I don't know what I should think of Joker-san...)
Yuki: First, I'll do my student council work...
(Yuki: Since there's always student council chores...)
(Yuki: At least when I'm doing chores, I stop thinking about things unnecessarily...)
*time passes*
Yuki: ...Whew.
Yuki: Hup.
(Yuki: ...It's nice doing some physical work to clear my head, but it's harder than I expected.)
Yuki: I wonder if I can finish today...
Yuki: It's already gotten to be evening, and there's still so much left.
Yuki: I wonder if Joker-san is still waiting for me...
(Yuki: I'm happy he's been doing a lot of things for me...)
(Yuki: But at the same time, the more he does, the more it makes my chest hurt...)
(Yuki: To Joker-san, everything in the world is about whether it can amuse him or not...)
(Yuki: I'm sure that his entertaining me is to have fun for himself.)
(Yuki: It's probably not for my sake...)
(Yuki: So I don't really know if I can be honestly happy about it...)
??: Yuki-kun.
Yuki: Joker-san!?
Joker: When you didn't come, I came to look for you.
Yuki: Sorry... My student council work isn't finished yet.
Joker: What is your work?
Yuki: I'm carrying this stuff from this reference room to a room upstairs, but there's a lot of it, so I'm not done yet.
Joker: Hmm.
Joker: Hayato. You do it instead.
Chiba: Yes.
Yuki: Oh, it's fine. This is my job.
Chiba: It's no problem.
Yuki: Then I'll help!
Chiba: Unnecessary. Myself can do it alone.
Yuki: But...!
Joker: Leaving it to Hayato by himself is more efficient than you helping clumsily. So leave it to him.
Joker: I'm relying on you, Hayato.
Chiba: Leave it to me.
Joker: Then, shall we go?
Yuki: But...
Joker: It's fine, it's fine.
Yuki: Joker-san!!

(Durak)
Joker: Come on, the preparations are complete. Please eat up.
Joker: I'm sure it must be delicious.
Yuki: Probably? You haven't tried it, Joker-san?
Joker: Well, I prepared it for you to eat.
Joker: If you remember my story about my sense of taste, you'll understand. Here, go on.
Yuki: Ugh... But...
(Yuki: I wonder if Chiba-san is okay.)
(Yuki: I still had over half of the materials left to carry...)
(Yuki: With that much left, it would be really hard to do it alone.)
(Yuki: After all, I should have helped, even if they said it was impossible...)
Joker: If you're not going to eat, shall I feed it to you?
Joker: Here, say aah.
Yuki: Wait, Joker-sa... *mph*...
Yuki: ...*munch munch*... Delicious!! This cream is so exquisitely sweet, I can't sta...
Yuki: Wait, Joker-san!!
Joker: What's the matter?
Yuki: Well, I feel bad for Chiba-san, having the work foisted on him.
Yuki: I can't enjoy afternoon tea like this...
Joker: I told you, you don't have to worry about Hayato.
Joker: Or is there something else you're still worried about?
Yuki: Well, there's still the third round left...
Joker: Are you that worried about the third round?
Yuki: Yes...
Joker: The third round is your specialty, a test of luck, isn't it? In that case, I don't think you need to worry.
Yuki: But it's impossible to not worry.
Yuki: It's a huge responsibility...
Joker: Yuki-kun, look at this.
Yuki: Cards?
Joker: Here I have the king of hearts, spades, diamonds, and clubs, and a joker. Five cards.
Joker: I'm putting them all face down...
Yuki: Right...
Joker: Now, try picking the Ace out of these.
Yuki: Huh!?
Joker: This is your specialty, isn't it?
Yuki: No matter how good my luck is, that's impossible.
Yuki: Well, the only things that are here are kings and a joker.
Yuki: It's absolutely impossible to pick a card that's not there.
Joker: Really?
Yuki: Yes...
Joker: Can you assert that you absolutely can't?
Yuki: ...Yes.
Joker: But the cards are face down and you can't see the pictures.
Joker: Can you really declare that the card you desire is not here?
Yuki: Well...
Joker: Hehe.
Joker: The facedown cards hold infinite possibility.
Joker: As long as you desire it, I'm sure that the cards will answer your expectations.
Joker: Only, if you decide that it's not possible and don't turn the card over, then you lose that possibility.
Joker: Come on, believe, and try it.
Joker: Among these five cards that are turned over, imagine the one that you want and try picking.
Yuki: Umm. Then...
Yuki: Eih![note!]A martial arts cry.
Yuki: Oh...
Yuki: The ace of hearts...
Joker: See, the cards answered.
Yuki: Right...
(Yuki: Just now, that must have been Joker-san's sleight of hand.)
(Yuki: Could he have done it to give me confidence, since I was feeling uneasy?)
Chiba: I'm done.
Joker: Well done, Hayato. Good job.
Chiba: Yes.
Yuki: Huh, you're done already!? You didn't even take ten minutes!
Yuki: Even though there were so many that if I was doing it, I still wouldn't have finished even at night...
Chiba: It was nothing.
Yuki: Amazing...
Joker: See, that's why I told you, you didn't have to worry.
Joker: It's more efficient if you leave this sort of thing to Hayato.
Joker: From tomorrow on, leave all the physical labor chores to Hayato.
Yuki: Huh!?
Joker: WEll, if you do that, then we can be together more.
Joker: I'm relying on you, Hayato.
Chiba: Understood.
Yuki: Oh no... Please wait a minute!!
Joker: What?
Yuki: Joker-san, this sort of thing...

(decision)
Please stop already!
Please be more restrained.

(decision: Please stop already!)
Yuki: Please stop already!!
Yuki: I'm happy about your feelings, Joker-san.
Yuki: But it bothers me to be treated special like this.
Joker: But it gets your work finished faster and you get a delicious snack.
Joker: Hayato got praised by me, and I got to spend time with you. In the end there's no problem, I think?
Yuki: But this isn't what I wanted!
Yuki: Besides, I didn't do anything myself...
Joker: That's not true, Yuki-kun. It's a matter of the right person for the right job.
Joker: You should just concentrate on showing your unique power when it's necessary.
Joker: In the last round of the Bell One.
Yuki: You mean my luck...?
Joker: Right. The one weapon that only you have.
Joker: So you don't have to waste your time on stupid chores.
Joker: I think you underestimate your position and your ability.
Yuki: That's not true...
Joker: Well, that you argue against each and every thing and have a uselessly strong sense of justice, that's what I really like about you.
Sonoda: Kiyo, did Yuki-kun show up?
Sonoda: Oh? It's kind of a delicate mood.
Yuki: No, well... not really...
Sonoda: ...*sigh* Kiyo... Were you toying with Yuki-kun and bothering him again?
Joker: Do you think I would do something to bother him?
Sonoda: You're one to talk. Yuki-kun, if he's bothering you, you need to tell him clearly.
Yuki: Haha...
Sonoda: Kiyo, if you're too persistent, he won't like it.
Sonoda: Anyway, you supporting someone else this much is rare.
Joker: I guess.
*tug*
Yuki: Wah!?
Joker: Because he's special.
Sonoda: Special, huh?
Joker: Right.
Sonoda: ...Hey, Kiyo. Are you that jealous of his good luck?
Joker: ...
Joker: Wanting what you don't have, it's the same for both of us, isn't it?
Sonoda: ...
Yuki: Hm?
(Yuki: Somehow I feel like everything got oddly tense...)
(Yuki: ...Is it my imagination?)
