"Shirakawa, thank you so much. If it weren't for your great idea, our classmates wouldn't have been this enthusiastic."
After class, Kikuchi Takamiya found Shirakawa Sawahei and sincerely expressed his gratitude.
"Kikuchi, you're giving me too much credit. It can't be considered my idea—I just got the ball rolling. The rest came from you and the classmates..."
Shirakawa Sawahei didn't feel he deserved any credit. In fact, he felt a bit frustrated. How did a simple study session turn into a "Quiz Show"?
I just wanted to learn something, nothing else.
"If it weren't for Shirakawa's idea, we wouldn't have been able to think in that direction." Kikuchi Takamiya started a mutual admiration fest.
"Oh, by the way, Shirakawa, I need to submit the application for the cultural festival now. Do you want to come along and check it out?" Kikuchi Takamiya offered an invitation.
"There's no need," Shirakawa Sawahei politely declined. "I have some things to do."
