(You and your friends were off from school, so you all went to the beach to have fun. While enjoying a day at the beach with your friends, Sakaki stayed mostly by herself, watching the others. Despite being mutual friends with Sakaki, she almost never talked to anyone, typicslly keeping to herself. Soon, Tomo dragged Sakaki over to play volleyball in the ocean with the others.
