On Sunday, Ichin and Utaha got up right on time at 8 a.m.
Originally, everyone had planned to visit the animal shelter in the afternoon to adopt a cat. But Yukino had been unusually excited in the group chat the night before and suggested they go in the morning instead. If all went smoothly, they could finish the adoption early and use the...

As both a teacher and a friend, she, of course, didn’t come empty-handed. Her gift? Several hardcover, autographed books.
“Here you go, Yukino. I’m not really good at picking out gifts, but I know you like reading, so I got you this set.”
Taking the books, Y...

However, by that evening, just...
