The Forgetful Ghost |  |
Himari
Okay~! Time to get some serious homework done! Ran, Tomoe, thanks for giving me a hand!
Tsugumi
I'm sorry I can’t join you. I have to help out in the café today...
Tomoe
Don't worry about it. Thanks for always letting us use your place. Where’s Moca?
Ran
She said sorry, and that today is her sleeping day.
Himari
That's our Moca. Okay, it's just the three of us then!
Himari
I'm so thankful, you guys~. I wouldn’t be able to get any of my homework done without this textbook.
Ran
You're supposed to say that when you're done. First things first. Get started. Then finish up.
Himari
... Okay~.
Himari
Hrm... huh? What was the formula again...? This is what we got my textbook for...
Himari
Hm? There's something written in the corner of the page. "Again"...? Maybe I wrote it when I was falling asleep... Anyway, back to my homework!
Himari
Huh? There’s something written on this page too... "Me"...? Hmm~? I don’t get it~.
Ran
You're so loud when you talk to yourself.
Tomoe
Stuck on something?
Himari
Look at this. There's something weird in my textbook.
Ran
"Again"... "Me"...? What's this supposed to be?
Himari
I don't know~. I don't remember writing any of this... They're just random words.
Tomoe
Maybe Moca scribbled in your textbook when you lent it to her?
Himari
But Moca's kinda smart, she doesn’t need to borrow my textbook.
Tomoe
Ahh, hmm... Let me take a look.
Ran
"Again" and "Me"... Wonder what it's supposed to mean?
Himari
Hrm, I have no idea...
Tomoe
Hey, there's words in the corners of other pages too. This one says "With", the next one says "Play"...
Himari
"Again", "Me", "With", "Play"...?
Tomoe
There's more on other pages too! "And"... "Come"...
Himari
And come?
Ran
The last parts read as "play and come"...
Tomoe
Maybe it makes a message if we rearrange the words.
Himari
Tell me the words again! I'll write them down.
Tomoe
Okay, "Again", "Me", "With", "Play"...
Himari
All together it's "Again", "Me", "With", "Play", "And", "Come"...
Ran
...! If you read it backward, it says "Come And Play With Me Again."
Himari
Come and play with me again...? What's up with that...?
Tomoe
The seventh mystery... It's still happening...
Ran
Huh?
Tomoe
Remember what Moca said? There’s a ghost of a student who plays pranks on people, looking for someone to play with.
Himari
... Does that mean there really was something there when we went to get my textbook...?
Tomoe
Yeah... I think so...
Ran
"Come and play with me again"... It might still be hanging around us...
Himari
... I-I have to finish my homework first! Play comes after that!
Tomoe
U-Uh, yeah! Th-that's right! Okay, let's get stuck into this!
Ran
... This is giving me the creeps...!

Himari
Hm-hm-hmm~♪ What am I gonna get today~?
Himari
Oh, BanG Dreamer-san! Hey~! Over here~!
Himari
Hi! How are you today?
Himari
Why am I in such a good mood? Wait, is it that easy to tell?
Himari
I just finished all my homework and handed everything in! I'm free~!
Himari
Ehehe, thank you~!
Himari
I was just thinking about going by Yamabuki Bakery to get myself a little reward for getting everything done.
Himari
Oh~... You have no idea how crazy my summer vacation was~.
Himari
Ahaha, so what happened was... I left one of my textbooks at school during summer break.
Himari
I asked the other members of Afterglow to help me go get it and...
Himari
... We went to school at night!
Himari
We found my textbook, but when went to go home, the doors out of the school were locked! We got trapped in the school at night~!
Himari
I feel scared just thinking about it again... I was worried we'd never be able to leave again when we found the doors were locked.
Himari
Moca was all "This is getting interesting~", though. She isn't scared of anything, huh?
Himari
Have you ever been to a school at night, BanG Dreamer-san?
Himari
Schools at night aren't just dark and quiet...
Himari
Strange things happen! I'm serious! We experienced it for ourselves.
Himari
Random noises... Oh, and we heard Tomoe's voice even though she didn't say anything...
Himari
Ah! You don't believe me, do you, BanG Dreamer-san? It's written all over your face! But I'm telling you the truth~!
Himari
I guess it can't be helped. I mean, we didn't believe what was happening around us at first either...
Himari
I don't want to experience those things ever again... Well, it's my fault we had to in the first place, but still...
Himari
But you're right. I finished everything and handed it in, so it's all good!
Himari
... I'm so lucky to have those girls as my friends! They went to school with me to get my textbook, and they even helped me finish my homework!
Himari
You think so too, BanG Dreamer-san? Ehehe, thank you!
Himari
Okay, time to buy some buns and head home! Moca told me all her recommendations, so I know exactly what to get...
Himari
... Ah!
Himari
... I promised everyone I'd treat them to something in return for going with me to get my textbook...
Himari
My poor wallet... Ugh...
Himari
I guess my little reward will have to wait till pay day...
