“Is Hikigaya not coming to school tomorrow?”

In her phone Shizuka Hiratsuka’s voice came with an air of helplessness mixed with a hint of worry.

“Mm,” replied Komachi Hikigaya uncertainly while holding her phone, the tone of her voice full of guilt.

“What do you mean by that?” Shizuka Hiratsuka instinctively raised the pitch of her voice.

“It means—tomorrow, I might not get everything done,” Komachi Hikigaya said, breaking out in a sweat.
