"Do you... like Tadano?" said Manbagi.
Komi's face turned red as she put her head down. She couldn't look Manbagi in the eyes after she asked her that. She stopped using her voice out of embarrassment, so she pulled out the notebook and wrote down something. I mean, she couldn't just physically ghost Manbagi..
Her notebook read: "I honestly don't know"
Manbagi just stood there with a blank face. "Well, let me help you out!" she said with a smile. Komi, unlike Tadano, has a hard time understanding and reading other people's emotions. Komi didn't know whether Manbagi was mad at her, or calm and understanding about the situation. While still in thought, Manbagi interrupts her thought with a question. 
"So, how do you feel when Tadano's around?" 
Komi doesn't know how to feel about that question.. she pauses for a bit, and puts on an 'ohhh' expression, like she just got the pieces together. She put the notebook back in her bag, and started speaking again.
"I-i fe-el h-happy when i-i'm around him.."
Manbagi stood there. Not in shock, but in despair and joy. Manbagi's head was full of thoughts going around her head. She thought of how brave Komi was, but at the same time she was jealous of how much she liked Tadano. 
"Well, this is definitely a crush Komi. I like him, you like him, but we're still friends, and I don't want him to tear the two of us apart, got that?"
Komi stood there with a slight smile on her face and nodded.
"Yes."
"Well, I have to go back before Nene is done everything without me, cya later Komi!"
Manbagi turned around to go back to the classroom to continue cleaning, and Komi went back to Tadano and Najimi.

Komi walked down the stairs to hear Najimi and Tadano talking.. about her? 
"OOHMYGOSHHHWHEREISKOMIIIIIII!?!?" wined Najimi as they waited for Komi.
"Don't worry Najimi, it's only been 4 minutes.." said Tadano
"IDONTCAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIWANNAGOHOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
Apparently, while Komi was talking to Manbagi, Najimi was whining to go home the entire time. Typical Najimi... Tadano and Najimi weren't waiting for too long, but Komi felt bad for making them wait long. She scribbled something in her notebook to show them when she walked past the stairs. Tadano instantly recognized her and yelled out to her.
"Hey Komi! We're over here!"
Komi pulled up the page of the notebook that she had just scribbled on and showed them the page: "Sorry I took a little long, would you guys like to go to the cat cefé? My treat!"
Najimi and Tadano looked at the paper. Before Tadano replied, Najimi inerupted him by saying:
"OHMYGHOSHYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!"
"I mean, it sounds fun! Plus we have time to spare!" commented Tadano
And an opportunity to get closer to Tadano, thought Komi (Komi-san is NOT jealous [or so..]) And Najimi. Even if they started to date and told Najimi, the entirety of brazil would know! <──(manga spoiler) 
"Alright, let's head out to the arcade then!" exclaimed Tadano.
When they arrived at the arcade, they were still in uniform. As usual, Najimi recognizes people, Komi gets commented on her beauty, and Tadano is again, Tadano. AVERAGE!

(A/N) - I don't understand how people can crush on Tadano- He's still one of my favourites though!

They went around, won some games (somewhat because of Komi's beauty), and even ate some pizza! Eventually, they got everything for free, (thanks to Komi) and Najimi forgave her for being "LATE". On the part of getting closer to Tadano, Komi hasn't done anything concluding to her task, and just had fun with her two close friends. While they were leaving the arcade, Komi decided to make her move and brushed her hand onto Tadano's. She was sure not to let Najimi know (because of how many places her tea reaches...). She could see Tadano's cheeks redden a little bit, but he tried to hide it. Unfortunately for him, Komi noticed. Now, Komi's head was rushing with thoughts. Does Tadano like me? Or was he just flusterd? He's so confusing!  Komi was too confused to continue, and just kept walking. Komi's house was on the way, so they dropped her off there first. While Komi was knocking to check if her parents were home, Najimi and Tadano stood behind her from the gate. Her mom opened the door.
"Welcome home Shouko! Oh are those your friends? Would you like to let them in for dinner? I don't mind, and I'm sure Shosuke and Dad won't either."
Komi jumped to her mothers words. She ignored her own question and called out for Tadano and Najimi: "Hey kids! Would you like to come have dinner with us? I'm sure Komi wouldn't mind, nor the rest of the family!"
Komi was nervous. The only time they've ever been in the house was new years, and Komi instantly rushed inside. Again, Tadano was acting clueless and couldn't understand what she was thinking. Without hesitating, Najimi inturupted Tadano's thought, yet again and blurted out: "YEAAAAAAAAAA! SOUNDS FUN!" and dragged Tadano in. 
Komi's got the chills, and was super nervous on how this would turn out...
