As the 13th of February approached, tomorrow would mark Valentine's Day. During their break time, Mizuha, Elly, and Shimizu gathered together to discuss their plans for making chocolate. Shimizu turned to Elly and asked whom she intended to give her chocolate to. Elly replied, "For you guys—Mizuha, Shimizu, Kitamura, Hikaru—and Zul, the Special One."
Curiosity piqued, Elly then asked Shimizu if she planned to make chocolate for Kitamura. Blushing deeply, Shimizu replied, "Yes, but I'm not sure if he wants it or not." Mizuha and Elly burst into laughter, amused by Shimizu's response. Confused, Shimizu questioned their amusement, prompting Mizuha to explain, "Of course, he wants it. You're the one closest to him ever since he transferred to our school."
Trying to divert the attention, Shimizu changed the subject and turned to Mizuha, asking if she intended to make something special for Hikaru. Blushing, Mizuha replied, "Of course, I want to make it and give it to him." Shimizu seized the opportunity to tease Mizuha about her flushed face.

Alright, alright, I’m in,” Mizuha agreed, “but I’ve never made chocolate for anyone before, so I’m not sure how to go about it.” Shimizu added, “Same here. The two turned their attention to Elly, the only one among them who knew how to make chocolate.
Mizuha and Shimizu looked at Elly, seeking her assistance. "Master Elly," they implored, "we need your help to make Valentine's chocolate." Elly agreed to assist them, and Mizuha and Shimizu were overjoyed that Elly was willing to lend a hand.
Elly suggested that they stop by the supermarket after school to purchase the ingredients they needed to make the chocolate. Just then, Hikaru, Zul, and Kitamura entered the classroom after returning from the cafeteria. Hikaru turned to Mizuha, Elly, and Shimizu and asked, "So, what were you guys talking about?"
Mizuha responded, "It's a secret. Shimizu added, " Yes, it has nothing to do with you guys, right? while smiling at Mizuha and Shimizu. Kitamura, clinging to Shimizu's back, pleaded, " It's not fair, Shimizu, please tell me." Shimizu retorted, grabbing Kitamura by the neck, "Get off me, you pervert!" Kitamura surrendered, saying, "I give up, I give up." They all burst into laughter at Kitamura and Shimizu's antics.
After school, Mizuha, Elly, and Shimizu headed to the supermarket to gather ingredients for their chocolate-making project. As they browsed the shelves, they discussed their plans and shared ideas for the kind of chocolate they wanted to create. With her expertise, Elly provided guidance and suggestions, making the experience all the more enjoyable.
Elly asked what kind of chocolate they wanted to make for Valentine's Day. Mizuha shared that she was thinking of making some chocolate truffles while Elly mentioned trying out a new recipe for chocolate bark with different flavors and toppings. Shimizu thought it was a great idea and suggested getting high-quality chocolate and various flavors to experiment with. Mizuha also suggested personalizing each chocolate with cute messages and designs to make them extra special.
The girls carefully selected high-quality chocolates, various flavors, and decorative toppings. The supermarket visit turned into a fun and bonding activity as they shared laughter and exchanged stories along the way.
Once they gathered all the necessary supplies, Elly suggested they head to her house because it was closer and her family had a spacious and well-equipped kitchen suitable for their chocolate-making adventure. Mizuha agreed, saying, "Sounds good to me!" Shimizu also agreed, adding, "Yeah, let's go!"
Upon arriving at Elly's house, they washed their hands and gathered around the kitchen counter. Elly's mom greeted them, asking, "Hi, girls, what are you up to?" Elly replied, "We're going to make chocolate!" Seeing their excitement, Elly's mom offered her assistance and provided additional ingredients and tools they might need. Mizuha gratefully accepted her help, saying, "That would be great, thank you!" Elly's mom then provided them with some extra chocolate chips and molds to use. Shimizu thanked her, saying, "Thanks, Mrs. Sakamoto!"
With everything they needed now at hand, Elly declared, "Let's get started!" and the friends eagerly began their chocolate-making adventure.
The kitchen quickly became a hub of activity as Elly, Mizuha, and Shimizu started melting the chocolate over a gentle flame. "We have to be careful not to overheat it," Elly reminded them. The aroma of melting chocolate filled the air, adding to the anticipation and excitement. "It smells so good!" Shimizu exclaimed.
Working together, they poured the melted chocolate into molds, creating various shapes and sizes. As they worked, they giggled and chatted, accidentally spilling some chocolate and getting their hands covered in sweet stickiness. "Oops, I spilled some!" Shimizu said, laughing. "Me too, my hands are all sticky!" Mizuha added. Elly's mom offered encouragement and cleaned up their little mishaps, joining in the laughter and enjoying their enthusiasm.
With the chocolates in the molds, they placed them in the refrigerator to set. As they waited for the chocolates to solidify, Elly suggested, "Let's have some hot chocolate while we wait." Shimizu agreed, saying, "Good idea!" They sat around the kitchen table, sipping hot chocolate and sharing stories. Elly's mom joined in the conversation, sharing anecdotes and giving them tips on how to create different chocolate designs. "When I was your age, I used to make chocolates with my friends too," she said. "We would add different flavors and colors to make them unique." Mizuha asked her for tips, and Elly's mom suggested drizzling different-colored chocolate on top or adding edible sprinkles for decoration.
The time flew by, and soon the chocolates were ready to be removed from the molds. They carefully popped them out, marveling at the beautifully formed treats. "Wow, they turned out great!" Shimizu said. Elly suggested they decorate them like her mom had suggested, and they spent some time adding artistic touches to their creations.
They spent the remaining time packaging the chocolates in cute, handmade boxes, tying ribbons around them, and attaching heartfelt notes. Mizuha admired their handiwork, saying, "These boxes are so cute!" Elly's mom praised their efforts, telling them, "You did a wonderful job. Your loved ones will be so happy to receive these thoughtful gifts." Each box represented their admiration and affection for their loved ones.
As they admired their handiwork, a sense of accomplishment and happiness filled the room. They thanked Elly's mom for her assistance and bid her farewell. Each girl left Elly's house, excited to surprise their special someone with the personalized chocolates they had crafted with love.
On the next day, as Valentine's Day arrived, Mizuha, Elly, and Shimizu couldn't contain their excitement as they carried their beautifully packaged chocolates with them to school. Each of them had someone special in mind to whom they wanted to give their heartfelt gifts.
During the lunch break, Mizuha approached Hikaru with a warm smile, presenting him with a box of her carefully crafted chocolate truffles. She shyly confessed, "Hikaru, these chocolates are for you." Hikaru's eyes sparkled with gratitude as he accepted the chocolates, expressing his heartfelt thanks and admiration for Mizuha's thoughtfulness. "Um, Mizuha, can I open it and taste it now?" said Hikaru.
"Can I? But are you sure you want to taste it now?" asked Mizuha, feeling nervous and worried about her chocolates, concerned that they might not be good enough for Hikaru. Hikaru opened the packaging and tasted the chocolate. "How does it taste?" asked Mizuha, still feeling nervous. "Wow, it tastes so good!!" exclaimed Hikaru, enjoying another piece. "That's enough for now, I'll save the rest for later. I don't want to finish it all at once. Anyway, thank you, Mizuha. This is the most delicious chocolate I've ever eaten." "You're welcome," Mizuha blushed, happy to hear the compliment from Hikaru.
After giving chocolates to her friends, Elly, feeling a mix of nervousness and excitement, sought out Zul, the Special One. With a gentle smile, she handed him a beautifully wrapped box of chocolates and said, "Zul, I made these chocolates for you. I wanted to express my feelings and let you know how much you mean to me." Zul's face lit up with a genuine smile as he accepted the gift, expressing his appreciation and the joy he felt in receiving such a meaningful gesture from Elly.
After the school session ended, Shimizu approached Kitamura at his locker. She walked up to him with an air of indifference and thrust the box of chocolates towards him. "Don't get the wrong idea, but I got these for you. It's not like I put much effort into it or anything," she muttered. Kitamura chuckled, amused by Shimizu's tsundere act. "Wow, Shimizu, I didn't expect you to give me Valentine's chocolates. It's not like you at all to give me Valentine's chocolates," he said. "Shut up and please taste it and tell me what you think," Shimizu replied. Kitamura tasted the chocolate and was impressed. "It's delicious and tastes so good. Where did you buy these?" he asked. "I made them, you idiot," Shimizu blushed. "Really? That's why they're so delicious. Knowing that makes these chocolates taste even more delicious than before," Kitamura said, sincerely thanking her and understanding the affection behind her seemingly indifferent words.
After that Shimizu and Kitamura walking together to go home, as their left at the school gate, suddenly Shimizu hear someone calling her name from far behind. “Shimizu senpai!” someone was shout from behind. When Shimizu looking at back it appears to be a Mika approach them with her gang following her.
"Oh, Mika, what's wrong? Do you need something from me? said Shimizu. Mika, suddenly thrusting the box of chocolates towards her. “Here, senpai, a Valentine's chocolate for you. I made it especially for you," Mika said.
"You should give this to your ideal guy or someone you like, not me," Shimizu replied. "But Senpai, you are my ideal person that I idolize so much. You are so cool, even though you are a girl. You are better than the guys at my school," Mika insisted.
"Really? You think so," Shimizu laughed. "Anyway, thanks, Mika, for this chocolate. I appreciate it."
"You're welcome. Please taste it and tell me what you think later," Mika blushed and replied.
"Here, Kitamura senpai," Mika said, offering another chocolate to Kitamura. "For me too? Thanks, Mika," Kitamura responded. "This is for helping and saving me from the river earlier," Mika explained, referring to the scene where Kitamura saved her.
After that, Shimizu stared at Mika, making her feel uncomfortable. "What's wrong, senpai? Your staring is making me feel uncomfortable," Mika asked. "Hmm, you seem different," Shimizu said. "Oh, that. Your hair is a bit longer than before," Shimizu observed. "Oh, you noticed? Hehe, you're right. I decided to keep it long for a bit and start being more feminine, no longer looking like a guy," Mika confessed.
"How do I look? Less boyish than before, right?" Mika asked again. "Oh, you're right. You looking good with it. I can't believe you're the same tomboy who punched me last month. You look different now," Kitamura remarked. "I'm so sorry again for that, Kitamura senpai," Mika apologized, bowing her head repeatedly. "It's okay. That's all in the past. Let's forget about it," Kitamura forgave her.
After that, Mika and her gang excused themselves and left, waving their hands to Shimizu and Kitamura. Right after Mika left, another voice called out to Shimizu and Kitamura. It was Elly, Mizuha, Hikaru, and Zul. "Shimizu, Kitamura," Elly called. "Oh, it's you guys. I thought you guys had already gone home," Shimizu replied. "We were helping a teacher, so we're going home a bit late," Mizuha explained.
"So, what did that Mika person want this time?" Hikaru asked. "Hehe, that girl gave us Valentine's chocolate," Shimizu and Kitamura said, showing their chocolates. "Wow, homemade chocolates. So cute. Is she really the same person as before? She has changed so much," Elly commented. "Yes, it's her," Kitamura confirmed.
"Um, how about we stop at the karaoke station before going home? I feel bored and have nothing to do at home," Zul suggested. "You're right. We don't have homework for today," Hikaru added. "That's a good idea. Let's go to the karaoke," Shimizu agreed.
As they were walking to the karaoke station, they encountered a familiar face. It was a girl giving Valentine's chocolate to a guy. "Takeru, here's your chocolate. Today is Valentine's Day, right?" Akemi said, blushing. "Thank you, Akemi. I appreciate it," Takeru replied, blushing as well, while accepting the chocolate from Akemi. It was revealed that Akemi and Takeru were together.
"Look, we have another sweet couple here," Shimizu and Kitamura teased, smiling at them mischievously. "Hey, don't interrupt them," Mizuha scolded, trying to stop Shimizu and Kitamura from interrupting Akemi's sweet moment with Takeru.
"What are you guys doing here?" Takeru and Akemi asked, their faces still red and embarrassed from the earlier scene. "It's not what you think. We just..." Akemi tried to explain while attempting to hide the sweet moment from Mizuha and her friends. "Sorry, we happened to have seen your sweet moment," Hikaru apologized.
"Then why are you guys here?" Takeru asked. "We were about to go to the karaoke. Do you want to join us?" Mizuha invited. "Really? Why not? Let's go and join them, Akemi. I haven't sung in a long time," Takeru said excitedly to Akemi. "Yes, let's go," Akemi replied. With that, Akemi and Takeru joined Mizuha and her friends, heading to the karaoke to enjoyed their beautiful day.
