Track 1

(...My diary. Aa-chama left me a message inside.)

"So, today is the day you were born? How does it feel to dwell in a darkness where no future can be seen?"

…

Alright, food prep is done!

The drinks are ready too. I’ve stocked up on plenty of non-alcoholic drinks for tonight, so even those who aren’t good with alcohol can enjoy themselves.

Now, all that’s left is… the cake.

Be careful with the finishing touches on the decorations. It’ll lose its shape if you’re too slow.

When it comes to piping, it has to be done with focus and spirit! —Alright then, I’ll give it my all!

Fighting, Tonya!

Glossy like Ani-sama's eyelashes, unwavering like his nose bridge, and beautiful like his eyes...!

S-So serious. I feel like I might forget to breathe while watching him!

—I did it!

Lastly, once we add the cookie and chocolate sign with Ani-sama's face on it...

The cake I made for Ani-sama is complete!

You totes nailed it, Tonya!

Soooo cute and sparkly! Tonya’s love is totally reaching new peaks, like, Pegasus-MAX style♪ Ryuu-nya's totally gonna be hyped too!

Thank you so much, Chii-sama…! But I couldn't have made such an amazing cake without Ushio-kun.

Thank you for always teaching me so much, Ushio-kun!

…It’s fine. I’ll get a special reward for it later anyway.

Okiee! Now that the cake's done, time for presents~♪

Happy birthday, Toi. As a present, here's the magazine you wanted. I signed it for you too.

The special issue you were on the cover of that sold out during pre-orders!? And it’s the limited edition photo book that comes as a bonus…!

Thank you so much! I'll have to keep it safe so I don't get fingerprints on it.

Happy, birthday, Toi-kun... This is, a matching pair of portraits, of you and Ryui-kun…

Waaah, it’s amazing…! I’m so happy, Kiro-chan! I’ll put it on display ASAP!!

Here’s a TuRy-suke charm from Chii! This white summer style really gives off you vibes.

Let's take loooots of photos today too! Let's make it a super happy, lovely birthday!♪

Huggies♪

Wawawa!! Not only did Chii-sama give me a present, but he also hugged me too!?!?!

Is this reality…?

Woah-!? Hold on, Toi-kun!

Oi, the living room’s all ready. How’s it going over there?

Ah, Ani-sama’s voice.

Right, the birthday party is beginning now. I need to carry over the plates…!

Happy birthday~!!

Thank you for the birthday wishes, everyone!

Tch, just celebrating Toi would've been enough.

No way! We’re celebrating yours too! That’s why I made this cake especially for you.

“A birthday cake to you, the one I love so much♪ If we eat it together, all our senses will be in sync too~”

I put all my feelings for you into this. …Will you accept it?

Of course. It must’ve been tough to make. You did really well, Toi.

Ehehe…

(Ani-sama has such a lovely smile… I’m so happy he’s pleased!)

Just looking at it isn’t enough. ‘m gonna take a bite.

Yes, eat up! Here… Say aaaah.

Aaaah… Mm. Yeah, this seriously is the best in the world. I'm so lucky to be able to eat a cake like this.

Huh? What's with this weird music...?

Bang-a bang-a, boom boom boooom♪

Today is a wonderful day. We've prepared a little skit to celebrate the double birthday of Toi and Ryui.

There's also a special live performance by Renga, Kiroku, and Chihiro. Please enjoy yourselves up until the very end.

I-Isn’t this too much…!?

Well then, please enjoy the opening act first to get things started.

Here’s the short skit: "Unexpected". Let's hear it for them~! Clap clap clap clap!!

Thanks for hyping things up, cheer squad.

—So I got home late because of a delivery the other day, and had to take the mountain road…

You must be tired from working so late. So, what happened next?

Out of nowhere, I heard this strange sound coming from behind me, rattling… and rattling...

I thought something was off. There shouldn't be any speed demons tearing up the mountain roads at this hour. When I turned around–

Gulp…!

This experienced-looking baker was dashing at full speed to deliver freshly baked bread to the roadside station down the mountain early in the morning. And that cart looked like it was going 80km/h.

And here is where my invention makes its appearance! The 'Thunderous Retort Fan'!! Yoda, grab one too! Here we go~!

Aanddd— go!!

A-An earthquake!?

When Yowa-san... swung the paper fan, HAMA House started, shaking…!

That retort is a bit too strong, Netaro-kun!

That wasn't just a simple retort!? Hachinoya just went rolling! Knock it off, Yowa!

Ryui… I’m, fine–

What are you gonna do if Toi loses his balance and gets hurt!?

(...So lively and cheerful. This is the new everyday life that began for us when we came here.)

(With the chief and everyone around, I get to see a whole new side of Ani-sama.)

(Every single moment is so precious to me…)
