Artist's commentary
"Yayoi-san, can we have a little talk?"
"Oh, Reika-chan. Yeah, what is it?"
"Yes, honestly, I hate you, Yayoi-san."
"Huh?"
"Just kidding—it's a lie."
"O-oh . . . oh yeah, I fell for it last time too, huh?"
"Laugh"
"That's not a laughing matter! Today isn't April Fools' Day, so let's stop that, please?"
"Frankly, I believe it doesn't matter when one lies. Those who fall for lies are at fault."
"No way! Last time, I told you there are white lies and black lies!"
"I don't recall hearing that."
"From my memory, I'm sure I said that!"
"Like I care. Should we leave jokes aside, and get down to business?"
"Ah, it starts here . . . ?"
"Yayoi-san!"
"Y-yes?"
"I really hate you!!"
"Huh?"
"It's a joke."
" . . . "
"Laugh, the opposite of 'really hate' is . . . "
"Oh, I love you too, Reika-chan!!"
"Die."
"Huh?"
"The opposite of 'really hate' is 'die you piece of trash.'"
" . . . I'm not playing along any more, you little. You die, you shit—yell!!"
"Oh? My words were too vague. I meant to say, '—piece of trash that I love to death.'"
" . . . ah!"
