Beach, One Han City
[Hinata Takanashi] The sea looks absolutely stunning...
[Natsuki Shinomiya] Ah-ha! First one here!
[Hideki Akechi] Looks like we've got this entire beach all to ourselves.
[Mirai] I mean, it's not really beach season yet, is it?
[Hinata Takanashi] But the sun feels so perfect today!
[player] Definitely! Plenty of sunlight without the scorching heat.
[Natsuki Shinomiya] Hey, you slowpokes! Don't leave me hanging out here by myself! Catch up already!
Since a few friends had some free time lately, I thought it'd be fun to get everyone to the beach.
The water's too chilly for swimming right now, but that hasn't stopped everyone from having fun.
Especially Hinata and Mirai, who are running around like excited kids.
[Yui Yagi] ...
Watching the others play from afar, Yui narrows her eyes slightly, as if the sun is too bright for her.
Though we've been talking a lot recently, this is my first time inviting her out. I still can't quite figure out what's going on in her mind...
[Yui Yagi] Everyone seems to be enjoying themselves.
Yui says this, half to me and half to herself.
[player] Yes, they are. Are you enjoying yourself too?
[Yui Yagi] I don't know.
Yui neither confirms nor denies... better to steer the conversation elsewhere.
[player] Speaking of beaches, when was the last time you visited one?
[Yui Yagi] 10 years and 3 months ago.
[player] That's quite a long time...
Wait, you remember it down to the month?
[Yui Yagi] Yes, it was the first time I went to the beach with my family.
[Yui Yagi] I didn't know how to swim then, which was disappointing, so I took swimming lessons afterward.
[player] Oh? So you can swim now?
[Yui Yagi] Are you doubting me?
[player] No, not at all! I'd never do that.
That said, I'm having a hard time imagining Yui in the water.
[Yui Yagi] I'd love to prove it to you, but the ocean's still off-limits for swimming.
[Yui Yagi] What a pity.
