you were having the worst day ever. everything seemed to be going wrong for you. it was 4:10, a little after cleaning time, when you heard talking and laughter coming from the gardening club as you passed by, taking a walk around school before you were told to go home.

the gardening club was trimming hedges, watering flowers, and tending to food plants, talking and laughing. you looked in at all the beautiful plants, the colorful nature of them, and their stunning looks; well kept and lovely.

suddenly, you were snapped out of your trance by Uekiya Engeika: the leader of the gardening club nicknames 'everyone's big sister'.

"oh! hello, dear! welcome to the gardening club!" she said softly, sounding sweet and inviting as always.
