July 5th, sunny, northeasterly wind at level one to two
"After going round and round, it’s finally summer vacation again, another semester of fulfilling study time, and the final exams went well! Thanks to Shirakawa and my joint effort, my parents rewarded me quite a bit~ I’m starting this new diary to motivate myself to work hard and study during the summer vacation, aiming to complete that Azur Lane fanwork before August."
"Speaking of which, the work about the JK ghost high school students is already serialized online. When I go to the Summer Comic event, I’ll secretly agree on a secret code with fans, so I can sell stuff right under Shirakawa’s nose without anyone noticing!"
"Besides being a genius, I can’t think of any other adjectives to describe myself! Yabai desu ne☆~"
"Didn’t manage to record the wind direction today because Shirakawa didn’t tell me, and I always suspect the online data is lying to me. But it seems Shirakawa is kind of deceiving me too. Now I’m in a trust crisis, with no one around to trust, it’s so sad..."
"Ah, Shirakawa is calling me to eat watermelon! Scratch what I just said, Shirakawa is the best~"
July 10th, cloudy, breezy
"Shirakawa said recording wind directions in a diary is a silly thing to do; no one would use my diary to study history and meteorology. I wanted to shout back at him, saying if I ever become famous, his words now will definitely backfire... But his fists are just too hard, so I swallowed my anger and will start recording wind volume instead~"
"These past few nights, I’ve been staying up late watching shows, leaving no time to write in the diary. I skipped several days in a row, really feel bad for my cute diary... If Shirakawa hadn’t urged me to sleep early, I probably would’ve skipped writing today too..."
"To maintain this good habit, I’ve decided to start writing my diary the next morning. That way, I won’t delay diary writing because I want to do something else at night."
July 12th, sunny, breezy
"The plan to write the diary in the morning failed, because I got up too late, and by the time I opened my eyes, it was almost noon. After brunch, I dazed out for a bit, and suddenly it was afternoon. Writing in the diary at this time just feels uninspired... I’ll return to writing at night."
July 13th, rainy, no wind
"Sister Rion found several summer part-time jobs to replace my position, and I’ve become an unemployed drifter... During dinner, I told Shirakawa about this, turns out his job hasn’t been terminated, just has fewer shifts, about one or two days a week..."
"What is this, is Sister Rion targeting me or something? I bet that Minotaur Sect guy has been plotting this for a while... Hmph, it’s definitely because my book sales couldn’t compete, so they retaliated intentionally!"
"Great, now I’m the only unemployed person in this house, and Shirakawa looks at me differently. He never looked at me when I had a second bowl of rice before. Once I lost my job, people started to dislike me..."
"So sad, I need to get back to work soon, it’s time to start writing the Azur Lane fanwork..."
"Nothing today, just loafing around."
"Ise Yu, Ise Yu, how can you be so lazy, have you forgotten all the plans you made before? The Huaxia ancients said: reflect upon oneself three times a day, I can’t go on anymore!"
"Finally started writing today, as there’s less than a month left before the Summer Comic event opens, and if I delay any longer, I won’t be able to catch up with the printing house... By the way, Shirakawa seems a bit strange lately, the back-to-back workdays at the Maid Cafe aren’t that busy for him, yet he’s heading out all day, how is he not tired?"
"Forgot to write the weather yesterday... making up for that. As for Shirakawa going out, after some investigation, I found out he was playing piano with Hayakawa! He said the competition time was approaching and told me to not cause him trouble recently..."
"How dare he! I haven’t even caused any trouble, and yet he says such harsh things, Shirakawa is the worst! Unless he comes to placate me himself, I won’t talk to him anymore!"
"Today’s breakfast was pineapple buns, he woke up early just to get me breakfast, how touching... Shirakawa is the best~"
"Summer vacation is so boring... Kaori was supposed to stay here, but when I finally organized the place, she left... If she were here, my summer vacation would be much more exciting... Oh well, never mind, time to play games! A new release today! Let’s gooooo!"
"Playing games! Spending money, drawing cards, beach swimsuit wife arrived, a day full of luck!"
"Recently during that time of the month, Shirakawa saw me lying on the couch weak and took the chance to eat chilled watermelon right in front of me! This was definitely on purpose! I’m furious, but because I can’t win against him, I must endure this indignity."
"I’ve decided, when I make omelets for him later, I’ll save the smaller eggs for him! Ise Yu, you can’t continue being so naive anymore!"
"Playing games! Spending money, drawing cards, shipwrecked, an uneventful day... But breakfast was again the pineapple buns Shirakawa bought early in the morning... Hehehe, so happy~"
"Darn it, Shirakawa used the pineapple buns from the day before, reheated them, and pretended it was freshly bought breakfast! I can’t believe I’ve been tricked for so long! Give back my feelings, you jerk... sob sob sob..."
"I’ve decided, I’m not going to support Shirakawa at the piano competition tomorrow! Hmph... If I go, it’ll be secretly..."
"Aaaahhh, Hayakawa looks so good... and plays so well... I’m dying... I can’t believe Shirakawa and Hayakawa are so in sync, they haven’t practiced together for that long, have they? How can they be so amazing?"
"Had I known, I would have learned piano back then too. Then, maybe I’d be playing four-handed piano with Hayakawa instead!"
"Didn’t see this coming, really didn’t expect it, that Shirakawa actually had this up his sleeve, even got first place in the competition..."
"Disaster... Shirakawa was called away by Hayakawa, don’t know where they went, says he’ll come back before the fireworks festival... How should I get through this time without Shirakawa, how can I survive without him..."
(previously crossed out)
"No, I can’t sink into despair ! Even if Shirakawa ran off with Hayakawa, I must toughen up! Just right to take this opportunity to complete my fanwork! Yes, this is the moment to rise! Come on! You can do it!"
"Speaking of which, what day is tomorrow again... the 30th??? It’s almost August!!!"
"Alright, enough, I’ve given up trying, anyway, someone like me can’t complete any Summer Comic work... Just let me quietly pass away on my own..."
"Loser mode, beep, activated."
"Sister Rion actually heard I didn’t finish drawing and came over specifically to laugh at me, this evil heretic! Don’t underestimate the Pure Love War God! Minotaur! Since you want to ridicule me, then I’ll draw for you to see!"
"As a pillar of the Pure Love Sect, how can I disappoint the expectations in those gazes behind me! Just you wait! I’ll make sure the whole world knows that pure love is invincible!"
