Great. That’s one word to describe it.

This is Jennys, a really cool guy. When I see them in person, I can feel their auras are clearly different from those of ordinary people. Thanks to him, the sleepiness I had felt a few minutes ago was gone in an instant.

No kidding, it is no less dazzling than the sun there, which is the source of today’s clear skies.

And then I notice that the performers of the main event of today’s festival, the so-called entertainers, have gathered on the rooftop. The filming is about to start, and many cameramen and ADs are working in earnest to prepare for the event.

Surprisingly, however, the scene does not seem to be too tense. I had expected TV to be more noisy and filled with angry voices behind the scenes, but at least this is not the case with this program. Well, I guess it is because the Jennys seem to be very friendly. The atmosphere was so good that my nervousness was completely blown away.

No, but I feel like there is a big guy over there who is mumbling all the time and looking murderous… When I passed by there earlier, he was mumbling something like “I’m running out of time”, “Anyway, the audience ratings…”, “One more glory…”, and so on.

Well, I’ll leave it at that and say that it’s about time.

The morning preparations are over, and once the shooting starts, I have not much left to do.

As I recall, I’m supposed to switch with the next guy on duty once the first set of Todo’s work is done.

I wish I could have been on duty here all the time. For me, there’s no difference between the festival and daily life. I’m sure the teacher was just trying to be considerate, but honestly, it’s none of his business.

”Hey, kid…”

”Uh?”

And while I’m thinking about all this, I’m suddenly tapped on the shoulder from behind.

”What?”

And when I look back, I realize I’ve met someone I never thought I would. I really didn’t expect it.

It’s so unexpected that my voice goes silent.

”W-what is it?”

W-what’s going on? And he’s talking to me?!

”Could it be that you are Kazama?”

Huh? How do you know my name?　I’m not wearing a name tag or anything…

”Yes, t-that’s right.”

”Ha-ha-ha, I see. Okay. I’m really counting on you. Well, you are, by the way… You’re interesting. And I envy you.”

”Hm?”

Counting?　Interesting?　And envy?

What the hell is this guy talking about all of a sudden?　Everything makes no sense at all, and my brain stops thinking. I only know that this freshly smiling adult in front of me is extremely handsome.

What do you mean?

He’s already gone like the wind.

Eh? What do you really mean…

He gave me a bunch of baby sponge cakes that he must have bought from the stall downstairs.

”Let’s start the show!!!”

At last, the shooting is about to begin.

Indeed. Before I knew it, that guy, Renya Todo, was already on the set…

What’s this again? Why is he grinning like that?

I don’t know. Am I the only one who has a bad feeling about this?

But still, what the heck did Sakamoto just say…

How did he really know my name…

(Maybe sakamoto is jenny’s real name)

”This me !!! In this school !!! I like someone !!!”

It’s really started.

Well, let’s eat it while I watch it. I haven’t had lunch yet.

This baby sponge cake.
