Part 1


Yashiro: (When I arrived 10 minutes late at the appointed time, everyone from Simulation Department have already gathered)


Yashiro: I apologize for keeping you waiting!


Mao: It’s fine. Have you finished your work?


Yashiro: Yes, thanks to you

By the way, what situation is this?



Yashiro: (On the table, there are a lot of drinks)

(There were clearly too many glasses lined up for the number of people here)


Akehoshi: I thought beer is the best way to have a toast, so I ordered some

The cocktails look delicious and I even found a rare fruit wine too


Kou: For which I stopped him there


Mao: Well, with five people, I'm sure they will finish it eventually

Many of them can handle their alcohol

Though I wish you wouldn’t include me in the head count


Yuragi: Mao, I recommend this frozen cocktail. It has a low alcohol content so it is easier to drink


Mao: Heh, thanks. I’ll take it


Kou: So that is the reason why. It would help us if you drink anything you find interesting


Yashiro: I understand. Then I will feel free to take it


Kou: Well, now that we all have gathered, it’s time to start

Ito, can I have this toast with you?


Yashiro: Okay then, with your permission…

Mao-san, happy birthday








Kou, Akehoshi, Yuragi: Happy birthday!


Yashiro: (Today is Mao-san’s birthday celebration.)

(We all raised a glass and made a toast.)


Yashiro: By the way, the reason you chose this place, is it because of that?


Yashiro: (The part where I was pointing my finger --- The shelf by the wall which was lined up with board games)


Yuragi: Yeah. I think it's perfect for Mao if it's a game bar


Akehoshi: Especially, it would be fun to play games with everyone that's why the 3 of us planned it

Let’s name it the “Ukyo Birthday Cup”


Yuragi: You get 1 point for every 1 win. For every 10 points ahead, the prize winner will receive a party favor


Yashiro: This would be the winning prize?

It is certainly a gift for Mao-san?


Yuragi: That is what I prepared, but it is boring if I just give it to him


Mao: So in other words, the person who will win, they are going to steal the present for me?


Yuragi: Yup. If you want it, you have to be the overall champion


Yashiro: A birthday party where the main character is being provoked…..

Maybe this is the first time I am experiencing it


Mao: There’s a lot of things I still want to delve into but okay fine have it your way


Yashiro: (.... Even though it’s not to the full extent, this still feels like Mao-san)


(And so, the birthday present to be won… The “Ukyo Birthday Cup” has begun)


Part 2


Mao: Yes. That’s my win


Yuragi: No way….


Akehoshi: Isn’t he too powerful?


(We already played various types of board games for 9 times)


Yashiro: Mao-san got 9 points right now…..


Akehoshi: He’s winning by himself~


Kou: As expected, there is no room for more evidence


Mao: There is no way I’d be happy to be taken for granted,

And I have no intention of doing so


Akehoshi: In fact, if you slack off, won’t you be punished?


Yashiro: (That’s true….)


(Mao-san would not be pleased if he just lets the player win)

(Everyone understands this and played the game seriously, even Mao-san who dared to accept the game)

(It was very typical)


Kou: Well, Mao is really good at games

I pretty much knew this was going to happen


Mao: So, what are you gonna do?

I don’t think it is possible to turn the tables now


Akehoshi: Well, there’s still that though

If you win the last game, you’ll get 10 points


Yashiro: That’s what you promised, isn’t it?


Mao: Then what’s the point of the game so far


Kou: Of course, it would turn out like this


Yuragi: This is the real decision, and it’s the most serious one, so go for it

Ito too


Yashiro: I understand

I will do my best, if you let me


Mao: Isn’t everyone on fire somehow?

Well, I accept

So what will be the last game?


Akehoshi: I think this would be the best choice

Here ya go


Yashiro: (From Akehoshi-kun’s pocket, a playing card slipped down….)


Yuragi: I heard you can bring games to this place


Yashiro: I understand. So we are using playing cards


Kou: Board games have a strong theoretical element, so I guess Mao can win with experience

With this, I think this will be a different game


Mao: OK

So with this number of people, President card game? Or like poker?


Yashiro: (Kou-san, Akehoshi-kun, and Yuragi-kun each exchanged glances and smiled in amusement)


Kou: This is the final game after all


Akehoshi, Yuragi: Old Maid game!


(Ukyo Birthday Cup. The Final Game: Old Maid

which foretells a storm, has begun)



Part 3


Yuragi: …..

Yashiro: (Yuragi-kun hands me a card without saying a word)

(Ever since the game started, or even before that, he has been completely expressionless)


Akehoshi: Yura’s expression is really hard to read

Well then, I’ll do this

Yup, Ito-san, here ya go


Yashiro: …. Please wait a moment

(Akehoshi-kun, you are the one who is always trying to make me pick a card)

(He can control his facial expressions, such as smiling on purpose or looking sad)


Yashiro: Well, I will take this

(The card I picked — It was the Old Maid

My heart suddenly started pounding loudly)


Mao: Then the next one is me


Yashiro: (The position of the card that Mao-san is pondering. It is a huge responsibility)


Yashiro: Mao-san, here you go


Mao: ….. Ito, your poker face is good


Yashiro: (It seems that the tension is making the muscles stiffen and the facial expression to disappear)


Mao: Then I will get this one


(The card that Mao-san pulled is the Old Maid)


Yashiro: (That’s a relief…. Or is it?)

(It’s a good development since the Old Maid now falls in Mao-san’s hands but there it also became suspenseful in another sense)


Kou: Is it my turn to draw?

Mao, isn’t it about time for the Old Maid to appear?


Mao: Are you playing games with me?

That’s what I want, Kou


(The Old Maid went round and round and as the result of the fierce battle….)


Mao: Yes, the last one


Yashiro: Aaaaah!


Yuragi: Lost again….


Kou: Even without the Old Maid, it’s definitely Mao who comes in first place


Yashiro: I’m sorry, it was like as I had been drawn to the card


Akehoshi: It’s not your fault, Ito-san. Your poker face was good though


Mao: Yeah. I couldn’t read Ito’s expression at all

I was reading the expressions of the three. I can kind of understand their tells because we have known each other for a long time


Kou, Akehoshi, Yuragi: !


Yashiro: (While looking at the reactions of the 3, he can tell the location of the Old Maid….?)

(If you think about it in that way, then it is no surprise that Mao-san won in this game as well)

(As expected, I guess he really understands them well)


Kou: So you saw through my tell


Yuragi: Aaaa, failed to steal the present away


Akehoshi: The winning prize will be presented


(A large gift box was presented to Mao-san)


Yashiro: Mao-san, congratulations


Mao: Thanks


Kou: He looks happy considering he knew he was going to win


Mao: I knew that, but how you feel when you actually receive it is another matter


Yuragi: That’s the conclusion


Yashiro: (When you look at Mao-san, you can tell even without words)

(.....He’s really happy to receive it)


Yuragi: ….. Hey, how about in the next game, we’d give 20 points?


Mao: No way, it’s already over


Kou: Mao was so strong that it was settled quite quickly

There’s still some time left, isn't there


Yashiro: ….. So that means


Akehoshi: Revenge match decided~


Mao: You’re not going to keep playing until I lose, are you


Yashiro: (Yuragi-kun starts shuffling the cards without questions asked)

(It looks like this lively night will continue)

END
