lead role. She’d been busy with rehearsals and her part-time job lately, so apparently she hardly picked up the phone and often talked through text messages.
    I clicked idly on the tab for enrollment and class fees, and my eyes bugged out. It was almost three times the amount as for a public school. It was double even compared to most private school fees! There were four people in the Mito family, and her father was an ordinary office worker. Apparently Mito had started her part-time job to earn money for school.
    “Studying music sure is expensive.”
    I remembered the spacious music hall at Seijoh Academy. It was pretty amazing since a building that extravagant had been built with the donations of orchestra alumni. It was beyond what most people could ever conceive of in their daily lives, even though the orchestra had a strong connection to the Himekura family that ran the school.
    As I deepened the search, my cell phone chimed with an incoming call.
    The person I’d been waiting for was calling. When I put the phone to my ear, a bright voice flared out.
    “Long time no see, Konoha. I’m shocked that you were the one who called me. ”
    Ryuto Sakurai was the son of the family Tohko boarded with. This past summer, we had gotten to know each other after Tohko assaulted him with her schoolbag when he was starting trouble among some girls.
    Ryuto sounded like he was grinning on the other end of the phone.
    “Tohko said she didn’t get a snack. She was PO’d. ‘I was lookin’ forward to it, too! Konoha’s just awful! Awful! He’s got no respect for his elders!’ Her words.”
    Ryuto was mimicking Tohko’s voice.
    Great! I’d totally forgotten about the snack! I’d meant to rewrite the draft and drop it off in the mailbox, but it was still in my bag.
    “I’ve been a little caught up with stuff, so I haven’t had time.”
    “Oh, when she hears that , Tohko’s gonna pout till her face pops. She’ll say, ‘But Konoha’s snacks are my only pillar to face studying for exams! There’s no joy left in my life now. My exams will be a failure. It’s Konoha’s faaaault!’”
    “You’re just making that up.”
    “Ohhh no, that’s the cry of Tohko’s heart. I mean, you are her author, Konoha,” Ryuto said impudently.
    Tohko’s author.
    My cheeks flushed at the words, though he’d said that to me before. What I wrote was just scribbling, and if I was going to be anything in the future, it wasn’t an author.
    Swallowing my bitter thoughts, I told Ryuto about everything that had happened.
    “So, if you know anyone at the Shirafuji Music Academy high school, could you introduce me to them?”
    “I’m shocked. You don’t usually go to all that trouble.”
    “I…guess.”
    “’Cos I thought you were the type of guy who didn’t wanna get involved with people.”
    My cheeks burned again. Up till now I’d been undeniably hands-off. Something had definitely changed, just a little, after the culture fair when I’d become friends with Akutagawa.
    Ryuto’s voice was probing. “Might you by any chance have an interest in this Kotobuki girl?”
    I quickly replied, “It’s not like that. I just can’t abandon her to this situation, so my opinion of Kotobuki doesn’t really…”
    “Hey, forget it. You want a favor. I’ll help. I’ve got a contact at Shirafuji, so I’ll try to get in touch.”
    I knew he would. He three- and four-timed so nonchalantly, and his entire year was just a slaughter.
    The number of girls Ryuto had pull with and his ability to mobilize them had surprised me before. If he didn’t know anybody, he made a sneak attack to chat them up and become friends. He was a person who did that sort of thing indifferently. Was he really younger than me?
    “Thanks. I knew I could rely on you, Ryuto.”
    Ryuto let my automatic praise wash over him.
    “However, I do have one condition.”
    He sounded a lot like Maki.
    “What’s that? I can help you with your homework if that’s what you
