Izumi: Good morning.
Sakuya: I’ll do my best!
Sakuya: Huh, Kasumi-san?
Kasumi: Ah, Sakuya-kun and Director! G-Good morning!
Izumi: So you’re here too, Kasumi-san.
Kasumi: I-It’s not what you think, I’m just…!
Kasumi: I happened to come to the editorial office of “BE.MINE” for an errand, and they asked me if I wanted to take a peek at Sakuya-kun’s photoshoot since it was nearby.
Kasumi: So it’s not like I said I wanted to come here or anything…!
Izumi: (Well… even if it was because she was invited, I’m pretty sure she just came purely to see Sakuya-kun’s photoshoot.)
Sakuya: I see. It’s reassuring to have you here, Kasumi-san!
Kasumi: Sakuya-kun… you really are such a kind boy…
Sakuya: No, that’s not…! I really do mean it.
Staff: We’re all ready. Sakuma-san, please come this way!
Sakuya: Okay, pleased to be working with you!
Kasumi: Good luck, Sakuya-kun!
Izumi: …Sakuya-kun was a little nervous about today, but thanks to you, I think I saw his shoulders relax just a little bit, Kasumi-san.
Kasumi: Eh, really?
Izumi: Really. So thank you for coming to see him.
Cameraman: Alright then, why don’t you just lie down there first, Sakuma-san?
Sakuya: Okay!
Cameraman: First, close your eyes… Like that, and now slowly open them.
Sakuya: …
Sakuya: …Good morning.
Kasumi: Eh! Good morning…!
Staff: Ahaha, Hinamori-san has already replied!
Kasumi: Well, who wouldn’t respond to something like that…!?
Izumi: Fufu, I get how you feel, Kasumi-san.
Kasumi: Right!?
Sakuya: Thank you so much, Kasumi-san!
Kasumi: S-Sakuya-kun… you’re welcome…!

Izumi: It sure was surprising to see Kasumi-san walk into the studio.
Sakuya: Yeah. But it’s thanks to her that I was able to relax a bit.
Izumi: Yeah, you looked really relaxed to me, and all of your expressions were really good.
Sakuya: It’s such a relief to hear you say that, Director.
Sakuya: Actually, I asked one of the teachers at the daycare how she feels when her husband wakes her up.
Sakuya: She said it made her heart race at first, but now that they’re family, it makes her feel a lot more calm.
Izumi: I see.
Sakuya: And it was thanks to Citron-san and the others, that I also realized that I shouldn’t get too caught up on the word “boyfriend” in my case.
Sakuya: I thought it would be better for me if I imagined being woken up by my family instead.
Sakuya: So I tried to imagine being woken up by everyone in Spring Troupe and you, and surprisingly, the pictures turned out to be really calm and gentle.

Izumi: Wasn’t the situation this time difficult for you?
Sakuya: To be honest, I was having a really hard time getting it right at first…
Sakuya: When I practiced with Tsuzuru-kun and Citron-san, they kept telling me that I was way too stiff for a boyfriend.
Izumi: Really? If it was that hard for you, you could’ve told me and I could’ve talked to the editorial department about getting you a different situation.
Sakuya: No! It was a situation that they thought of specifically for me…
Sakuya: I wanted to do my best since they were pictures people would be happy to see!

Option 2: Me too?

Izumi: You imagined me too?
Sakuya: Of course. Because you’re an important member of my family, Director!
Sakuya: Imagining you might’ve even been what gave me the most strength.
Izumi: Huh?
Sakuya: Ah…!
Sakuya: No, wait, um, I didn’t mean that in a weird way or anything…!
Izumi: Y-Yeah. It’s okay.
Sakuya: Sorry about that…
Izumi: It’s okay, really. I’m happy to hear you say that we’re family, Sakuya-kun.

Izumi: You had a really calm, gentle, Sakuya-kun-like expression on your face that I’m sure your fans will be happy with.
Sakuya: I’ll be really happy if that’s the case!
Sakuya: When the magazine releases, I wanna do an Inste live to share all my thoughts and feelings on it with my fans!
