"New Year?" Shirakawa Sawahei was caught off guard as someone hugged his arm and asked, a bit confused, "Why are you asking about that?"
"It's just... there's something important... Shirakawa, why are you dawdling? Tell me quickly~"
"I shouldn't have any plans before New Year. After that, I promised Tachibana's mother to visit the shrine with them."
"Xiao Mo's mother?"
"Yeah, she showed up during the school's three-way meeting and invited me to join them."
Tsukimi sakurazawa let out an 'oh,' thinking to himself that other people's mom is indeed just that — other people's mom. His own mom would only backstab him without doing anything else useful.
"Shirakawa, didn't I tell you last year during the festival... If you could go to the shrine for New Year, you should definitely accompany me..."
"Yes, yes, you did mention that... But Tachibana's mother was so insistent..."
