I can too wake up early if I feel like it!
Hm?
It looks like the Principal isn't here yet.
Once a Day
Let's keep this our little secret.
Miss Yoshinoya.
I'm very sorry for how angry I've gotten in the past.
From now on, feel free to come in as late as you'd like.

negoto de me ga sameta
I woke up to the sound of sleep-talking
One, two, three, four!
Two, two, three, four!
Three, two, three, four!
Four, two...
Morning. You sure are getting into it.
Hi, Miya. Do you want to try it, too?
Sure, it looks fun.
One, two, three, four!
Two, two, three, four!
Three, two...
Hi, Yuno, Miya...
Sorry, did we wake you up?
You've got to smile brighter.
If you don't look happy, you'll get points taken off.
She must still be asleep.
April 15th
Satisfying Sunlight
Art Dept.
That's it for today!
The teachers have an inservice this afternoon.
What are you going to do when we get home?
I'm going to eat lunch, then I'll think about it.
Wanna go to the cafeteria?
Sure!
Wow, I wonder if we'll be able to find somewhere to sit?
Let's buy lunch first.
Oh, it's Yuno and Miyako!
Meal Tickets
Nori, you're here, too?
Ooh, you got katsudon.
We're going to go get something now. Want to sit together?
I'm eating with some kids from my class. I had them save me a seat.
Oh.
What's Nazuna doing?
I dunno, I haven't seen her at school today.
I see.
Over here!
Anyway, see you later.
Sure.
Did Nazuna go home early?
I guess.
Sae... Huh, she's alone?
Go for it, Natsume!
Do your best.
Why?
Hey, you don't normally walk home alone.
Did something happen?
Nah, I just left something behind in my classroom.
Going back and getting it took me a while.
Well, that's nice.
What do you mean by that?
How's your class doing? Is everything going fine?
How it's doing? Same as always, really. Still the same people.
Yeah, I guess.
All right, I'm here.
Thanks.
For walking home with me.
It just ended up that way!
Anyway, see you tomorrow!
Sae!
I'm already ready to go!
Sorry.
Hi. Thanks for before.
What is it, Nori?
Well, I'd kinda like to get some curtains.
You know anywhere around here that sells them?
Curtains?
I know I've seen them somewhere...
Sae and Hiro already went out, right?
Yeah.
Hey, maybe Nazuna knows!
That's right, Nazuna is a townie.
A townie?
An Italian?
Curtains?
Yeah, do you know a good place to get them?
Maybe I'm Home would have them.
I'm Home?
It's kind of like a hardware store...
Do they sell lots of things?
Yeah, they have plenty of things.
Like frying pans, and trash bags, and shelving, and screws, and planters...
And gnomes!
Gnomes!?
Sorry to drag you along.
No problem.
It's kind of hard to explain where it is.
Hey, mind if we tag along, too?
Sure.
What have you been using for curtains, Nori?
I've been using ones I brought from home, but they're the wrong length.
Wow, you're right.
It's been bothering me since I moved in.
Hey, Yunocchi, get behind that curtain!
Why did you have to steal!?
Okay, it's 30cm. That plus the old ones is 180.
Thanks.
Sorry it's so short, I got it at the 100-yen store.
Don't worry.
Hey, mind if I do this?
Wow, it worked on you!
Amazing!
It's this way.
I'm already lost...
Hey, Miya, Sae's at the art shop. She wants to know if you want anything.
I'm fine.
How about you, Nori?
I'm fine for now, but where is it?
It's in the big department store the next town over.
Nazuna, do you know where it is?
Yes, but I've never been inside.
It's so big.
Ooh, I wanna go see.
Oh, that's right! I had class with Miss Yoshinoya today.
Was it your first time?
Yeah. She said she'd model for us to sketch.
"And if you'd like, I can model nude!" Right?
How'd you guess?
That's just how she is.
Did she dress up?
Yeah, she changed into something frilly.
But then the Principal caught her.
Hurf durf hurf durf hurf!
Sounds like it was pretty rough.
Huh?!? What was that noise?!
How long were you going to hide there?
I'm sorry...
This is I'm Home.
I'm Home
That must be Townie!
I told you, it's not a real person...
I know I could make something out of these!
Something?
Something!
Ooh, helmets!
It's fun looking at specialized things like this.
Impressive, I'm Home!
They have all sorts of towels.
Maybe I should do some shopping, too.
Yeah, I'd like a small towel.
Sale!
What's this, a chainsaw?
It's pretty big...
Pretty cool, huh, Miya?
Safety
A lumberjack!?
Necessities
Gen. Mdse.
Stationery
They have lots of pens, too.
We keep getting so distracted.
Sorry.
I'm going to the bathroom.
Me too.
We'll wait for you.
Go ahead.
What do I do? It's gotten so quiet... I'm the oldest one, I have to do something.
Um... Uh... I know, this always works in girls' comics...
Hey, Norippe.
Pe?
What color curtains are you going to get? Blue again?
Nah, I always get blue ones. This time I'd like something different.
What, did I tell you blue was my favorite color?
You just have plenty of blue things.
You're such a strange person.
We haven't even made it to the curtains yet...
You end up wanting everything.
Here, Nori, use this.
Thanks.
You've picked up a lot, too. What are you getting?
Some mineral water, some lip cream,
fabric softener, scotch tape...
Oh, and a towel and some batteries.
Can't you buy those anywhere?
I'm Home
Gardening
Stationery
Oh, here's the curtains!
Great, look how many kinds there are!
Are you getting lace curtains?
No, just normal ones for now.
Look, Yunocchi, I'm a lace queen!
Miya, you look like a bride!
Do you?
I do!
Hey, Nazuna, which ones do you like?
Maybe you should ask Yuno and Miyako instead...
I'm not studying art, I don't have any design sense...
Why are you looking at it that one-sidedly?
It's not like we have sense just because we're studying art!
We're studying art because we don't think we do!
Sense is something you have to polish! You can't just say you either have it or you don't.
I... I...
If it was for me, I might get these.
They're cute. I'll get them.
But...
Yeah, I'm sure.
They've made up their minds, Detective!
Hey, stop staring!
Hey, isn't that the landlady?
Yo!
Hi!
You're shopping, too, Landlady?
Yeah, I was thinking of planting something.
Medium Tomatoes
Brussels Sprouts Early-Sprouting
Strawberries
Eggplants
Shimoda eggplants
Wait, there's a garden at Hidamari Apartments, isn't there?
Why don't we all do something?
Gardening is fun!
Gardening?
You mean, like, veggies?
Another kind of snack!
We'll do it!
Should we be deciding that quick?
It sounds like hard work...
Should we?
Let's all pitch in!
Why don't we? It'll be nice.
All right! If you're going to, there should be enough for me.
I hope you can harvest a lot! I'll be waiting!
Done!
Thanks.
Norisuke!
Uh, me?
Can I have your old curtains?
Sure, go ahead. What are you going to do with them?
I don't have any curtains...
What have you been using for the past year!?
Miya has blinds in her room.
Yeah.
Oh, that's what she meant.
But they don't come down anymore...
Yeah, they broke last summer.
What!?
Knock it off!
Oh, it's Sae and Hiro.
Welcome back.
We're home.
Wow, everyone's together.
Hiro, what's in that big bag?
It's usually too expensive to buy,
but the drugstore at the station had it on sale really cheap today.
Isn't it cute?
Aren't they cute?
Don't worry.
Come on, Nazuna.
Hiro must have bought it because she liked the pattern.
I liked the pattern enough to buy it, too!
Huh?
You also bought these?
Tomato seedlings, huh.
I wanted eggplants and cucumbers, too, but we voted for these.
That's okay. Let's try growing these.
All right!
Just tell me when you get tired, and I'll take over.
Nazuna, why don't you help out watering?
niyari~
Here, Miya.
Thanks.
Here goes!
We're done!
Pizza!
Neapolitan!
Minestrone, and cacciatora!
You're sure in a hurry.
Here.
Thank you.
Thanks.
Why not turn the TV on?
I'll do the cooking.
We can cook.
Oh, you're not having any? I was going to make enough for everyone.
Thanks! Hiro's cooking is so tasty...
But...
Don't worry.
Hiro, should we get another table?
Yeah, there are six of us now.
Should I get mine from my room?
Yunocchi, I'll help.
Thanks.
Here we go.
Excuse me!
Wow, look at this front hall!
I could fit my whole house in here!
Wow! Hiro, you really are good at cooking!
I wonder how it came out? Give it a try.
Let's eat!
It's good!
Isn't it?
Yeah, it's really tasty.
Go ahead, have as much as you want.
I have Hiro cook a lot.
She can cook anything.
Oh, come on.
I should've had mom teach me how to make nikujaga.
Hiro can teach you.
If she lets me sample, I might join in.
Cool it, Miyako.
You'll learn cooking recipe by recipe.
I was the same way.
Really?
I'm still not used to living alone.
I'm having a hard time with school on top of everything.
It's okay!
Take it at your own pace!
Oh, have you gone to the cafeteria?
Not yet...
Let's eat there together tomorrow.
Okay.
Let's make a date! Meet me at the stairs when the bell rings.
Sure, got it.
Okay!
I've already done so much with Nazuna and Nori.
But we're just getting to know each other.
I'm sure we'll get along, though.
I hope we grow lots of tomatoes.
