Happy New Year, dude. Come on, man. I'm so tired to go home and sleep. I want to go to a shrine. I have plans to take hamarin with me, but nozomin invites me to go with him. It's a small shrine, but people come there to pray for prosperity and to improve their luck. The shrine is the largest in the area, so it's not really a big deal. Hamarin is psyched to be going with him, and he's happy to see that they're not awkward around each other. He's also happy that they don't have to worry about each other when they meet in public. He tells us that he has seen azuma over at the gate of the Tori gate before, but he doesn't know how to react when he sees a crowd of people. He says that he feels nervous around strangers, but when he hears the crowd around him, he thinks he should just let it go. He asks Hamarin to wait for him over there, and Hamarin says he'll wait a while before he sees nozomi again. They're getting closer and closer, but Hamarin can't seem to take it any more. He wants to go back home and rest.
