Blink twice and the weekend has gone by, per usual.

At least you managed to relax knowing that Kaiba is in good hands.

It’s another warm summer day and you’re sitting in your kitchen, enjoying a small breakfast.

As you swipe through the calendar to see what tasks await you at work – you spot something else.

Today’s Kitabayashi’s birthday.

If memory serves, then she’ll be turning twenty-six today.

Yui has been a great help these past weeks and you owe her in more ways than one.

The least you can do is celebrate her birthday.

However, you’re not really certain how you plan to celebrate it just yet.

At her home with friends? Dining at some restaurant? Dancing the night away at a club?

You decide to keep the birthday in mind and hope that ideas will come to you.

Breakfast finished, you leave home and set off towards the office in your trusty Renault Twingo.

Once there it’s time to fill the schedules of your idols.

Although you understand the importance of nurturing your idols, you can’t help but keep a wary eye on your budget which has been slowly sliding down over the past few months.

Some financial breathing room would be a nice thing to have before you start investing into your idols.

The door clicks open and Matsui bows in, “Good morning, Nagata-san,” she says.

Wearing a pressed blue suit with tie, her hair in a single, short braid swung over her shoulder, and carrying her clipboard, as always, to make note of this week’s plans.

“Good morning,” you reply, smiling.

Matsui tilts her head, “You seem in a good mood,” she says, “Had a nice weekend?”

Did you?

You’ve had plenty of worries this past week, but most of them have disappeared.

Kaiba’s housing situation is being taken care of, according to a fortune reading the concerns you had about your love life are unfounded as long as you put in the effort, and two of your idols are about to debut this week after both successfully completing their first jobs.

It seems silly to get chipper about the contents of a fortune reading, but you’re not about to sabotage your own happiness by overanalysing those thoughts.

“In a way,” you say vaguely, “How about you?”

“Same as always,” says Matsui, then goes right back to business, “Have you given any thought on how you’d like to debut your new idols?”

“I’m still thinking about it, we should have some time left,” you say, “I’m planning on sending all the girls out on jobs this week, we’ll brainstorm ideas on the debut while they’re busy on those.”

“Very well,” replies Matsui, tucking her clipboard under her arm, “Short meeting then. I’ll get you a list of jobs.

“Thank you as always, Matsui-san,” you say.

Matsui nods, then departs, then returns half an hour later with a list of jobs.
