Summer Camp/Chapter 10

Location: Tent Area at Camping Site
	(Hajime’s making lunch with Hakaze-senpai and Mitsuru went off to play in the river with Otogari-senpai, huh.) (What should I do? Should I ask Nii-chan for a lesson?)
	♪~♪~
	Nii-chan!
	Woah, you gave me a surprise! Uuu, anyone’s gonna get a fright if you call out from behind, right~? What’s up, Tomo-chin? Are you bored with nothing to do?
	Uh… yes, I am. Hajime and Mitsuru both went off with “UNDEAD”, and it looks like I’m the only one who doesn’t have anything specially planned. Nii-chan, if you’re free, could I ask for a lesson?
	Sure, I don’t mind~ But since we’re spending this training camp with “UNDEAD”, how about asking one of them for a lesson instead? Rei-chin’s resting under a tree, so the only one who’s left is… Kouga-chin.
	T-That’s Oogami-senpai, right? He won’t glare at me the moment I ask him, will he…?
	I heard from Rei-chin that he’s actually a really caring guy, you know? Besides, it’s a waste to back down when there’s such a good opportunity available. Hajime-chin and Mitsuru-chin are doing well with the other “UNDEAD” members, so you go do your best too, Tomo-chin ♪
	A-All right! I’ll do my best…! (I’ve already declared to Anzu-san that I’d like to get to know Oogami-senpai better during the training camp.) (I shouldn’t avoid him just because he looks scary, even though I’ve never spoken to him before.)
	Hey, plain-face.
	Huh…? Woah, Oogami-senpai!? (Who would have thought Oogami-senpai would call out to me on his own volition? I’m not mentally prepared~!) (My head’s gone completely blank. Uwaaah, now what?)
	I’ll give you a lesson. Hurry up, stop standin’ there like you’ve seen a ghost.
	A lesson…? What, you’re going to give me one!?
	What? Got a problem with that?
	Not at all! In fact, I was going to request one from you myself… Um, Oogami-senpai. I’m going to do my utmost best, so there’s no need to hold back!
	I see you’ve got some backbone in ya! Heh, that’s perfect. I’ll give you a strict lesson like you wished. I was gonna show you some dance steps, but there’s a change of plans: you’re gonna go run for me. Run some laps around the area until I say you can stop!
	Um, it’d be very helpful if you told me how many laps or gave me a roundabout goal…
	Huuh? If you’ve got time to move your mouth, then move your legs instead! Won'tcha understand unless there’s pain involved? Want me to go beat your ass?
	Eeek!? I-I’m sorry! I’ll get going now!
	…Kouga-chin, you’re really not going easy on him, huh. You’ve made him cry, you know?
	Being nice to ‘em ain’t the only form of love. You’ve gotta be strict and teach 'em a thing or two otherwise they won’t be able to do anything on their own. Now, I’m gonna take my sweet time to see what that kid’s got in 'em ♪
	Kouga-chin looks like he’s having fun, but what he said is true. I’m not going to step in. As the parent, I should watch over their growth without lending a hand~♪
