Transcript

*The class sits in the stands at the seal show. Paulo and David chatter excitedly. Mike looks out over the stadium.*
Mike: Wow..

*Daisy turns towards Mike, blushing.*
Daisy: Hey, Mikie, did you fill out the sheet yet?

Mike: Ahh, not all of it! Do you need any hel--
Mike: WHOA IT’S DONE?!
*Mike stares at Daisy’s note in surprise.*
Daisy: Hee ♥

*Mike scratches at the back of his head and turns to Lucy.*
Mike: Hey, Lucy! Wanna just combine our answers and get it all over with?

*Lucy sits in her seat quietly. There’s an anxious, harrowed look on her face.*

*Mike’s bashful expression drops.*
Mike (thinking): Lucy..

*The seal show begins. An animal handler cheerfully waves a fish around in front of a seal. The water behind them catches the sunlight on its waves.*
Mike (thinking): I’m sorry.. I forgot all about it..

*As Lucy’s distress worsens, she starts breathing heavily.*

*Lucy’s eyes widen in surprise.*

*Lucy looks to her side.*

*She blushes as she realizes Mike is clutching her hand, gazing at her with a kind smile on his face. Daisy glares at the two in jealousy, holding her clipboard up to cover her face.*

Author commentary

Veronica: I do like how this chapter does a lot of foreshadowing. Unfortunately you won’t get all the answers here!!! But if you stay tuned… you will…

Oliver: This will forever be memorable to me as an example of how converting to vertical “Webtoon” format can be a nightmare — look at Lucy’s covered face in the first panel! And these were all inked so there’s NO face behind that bubble. But we did it in the end.
