Guy: (The note Fushimi gave me says “The promise we made the day the daffodils bloomed”…)

Guy: (The first thought that came to mind was the dormitory’s courtyard, but this is probably…)

-

Tsumugi: Over here, Guy-san.

Guy: I’m glad. I was right about the location.

Tsumugi: Fufu, did you think it might’ve also been the courtyard?

Guy: I did. But then I realized you meant this café.

Tsumugi: You made the right choice.

Guy: Looking back, this all started when you invited me to come with you to buy daffodil bulbs for me.

[Flashback starts]

[Door knocking]

Tsumugi: Guy-san, are you there?

Guy: Yes.

[Door opening]

Guy: What is it, Tsukioka?

Tsumugi: I’m thinking of going to the garden center. If you have time, would you like to come with?

Tsumugi: Ah, I’m not forcing you, of course. If you don’t have time now, we can go another time—

Guy: No, I don’t have any plans, this is no problem. Let me come with you.

Tsumugi: I’m glad. Let’s go right away, then.

-

Tsumugi: Umm… Ah, there it is.

Guy: Are these daffodil bulbs…?

Tsumugi: Yes. You said you wanted to plant some next, right? I thought we could plant them together.

Guy: You remember such a trivial thing?

Tsumugi: Well, I was the one who told you about the daffodils in the first place.

-

Tsumugi: Gently cover it with soil… Now it’s perfect.

Guy: Is it alright to water them when the soil is dry?

Tsumugi: Yes. I believe they will grow just fine as long as they get their sunlight.

Guy: I see. … I look forward to seeing them bloom.

Tsumugi: Yes, me too.

-

Guy: (It’s been a few months since we planted the daffodils… They’re looking like they will bloom soon…)

Guy: ! They’re blooming…

Guy: (I have to let Tsukioka know.)

Tsumugi: Oh, Guy-san. Did you come to check on the garden?

Guy: You came at the right time. Tsukioka, the daffodils are—

Tsumugi: Hm? … Ah, they’ve bloomed!

Tsumugi: They bloomed so beautifully, too. I’m glad.

Guy: This is all thanks to you raising them together with me.

Tsumugi: It’s also thanks to you, Guy-san. You kept watching over them and taking such careful care of them.

Tsumugi: I believe they bloomed so beautifully because we took such good care of them together.

Guy: Yes, you’re right.

Guy: … You took me to your favorite café before.

Guy: It had a lot of greenery and flowers, and you told me the owner grew it all themself.

Guy: I didn’t realize it at the time, but now that I’ve grown them myself…

Guy: I truly understand just how much love and care went into growing all that greenery in the café.

Guy: I’m afraid it took me far too long to realize this…

Tsumugi: It doesn’t matter how much time it took you to get there. I’m just happy you’ve now become aware of it, Guy-san.

Tsumugi: If you’d like, we could go to that café together again.

Tsumugi: We’ve gone there with the Winter Troupe, but… Just the two of us this time.

Guy: Yes. I was thinking I’d like to go with you as well.

[Flashback ends]

Guy: We could’ve come here at any time since making that promise but… We never decided on a date.

Tsumugi: You’re right. Perhaps we’ve both dragged this promise on for so long because we treasure it so much.

Tsumugi: So, I figured this was the perfect chance to fulfill it, and chose this meeting place.

Tsumugi: A very happy birthday, Guy-san. Please take this.

Guy: Thank you. Do you mind if I open it?

Tsumugi: Not at all, go ahead.

Guy: A frame with pressed daffodils. They’re extremely beautiful.

Guy: Every time I look at it, I will remember the time we grew the daffodils together, as well as this day.

Tsumugi: I’m happy to hear that. Truth be told, I made this myself.

Guy: You made this? I wouldn’t have noticed had you not told me. It’s beautifully made.

Tsumugi: Thank you. I’m quite proud of this, but hearing you say that has made me all the more confident.

Guy: I can’t seem to decide whether I should display this in my room or the shop.

Tsumugi: Fufu, I can make another one next time, if that’d help.

-

Guy: … This should be alright.

Azuma: Are these the gifts you got today?

Guy: Yeah. The hand blender is from Fushimi, and the pressed daffodils are from Tsukioka.

Azuma: Fufu, they’re beautiful. You can tell they were both thinking of you when they made their choices.

Guy: Yeah. You’re right.

Guy-N

I have received my birthday presents. I will use and display them with great care. I’m filled with gratitude.
