I Became Friends with the Second Cutest Girl in My Class (WN)

T/N: I tried to TL everything and edit it to the pics, but it looked ugly so yeah, f**k it. Also, I probably missed a pic or two because my HDD is broken and these are the only pics that survived the purge. Credit to the editor, MaltedBarley, for sharing the pics.

This is from left to right

Maehara Maki: He used to transfer schools a lot before he entered high school. Doesn't know how to make friends, but hits it off with Umi since she has similar hobby with him.

Seki Nozomu: Maki's classmate. A pitcher for the baseball club.

Amami Yuu: The cutest girl in class. Umi's best friend since grade school.

Asanagi Umi: Has excellent grades and very friendly. The boys called her ‘The second cutest girl in class.'

The dialogue:

Nozomu: "Maki, you're one hell of a dude, aren't you?"

Maki: "R-Really?"

Yuu: "Maki-kun's pancake~"

Umi: "Hehe, we have to finish studying first before that~"

"Christmas Party"

"Phew… G-Got you…"

"Ugh…"

When I was 30 meters away from her house, Umi caught up with me and firmly gripped my wrist.

As she pulled closer to me, our eyes met.

"…Dummy. Look at you, your face is a mess."

"…Sorry."

"Don't be… Come here."
