There were no reviews for this work so I decided to step up and do it. It is spoiler-free so don't worry.
It is a very short chapter. It is entirely related to the original work so it should be read after the original manga. But it is more of a side story exploring more of characters that wasn't in the spotlight on the original work.

A special one-shot (?) that further develops the character Nishimiya Yaeko (Nishimiya Shouko's mother).
Here we have a flashback of Yaeko before the events of the main plot. After that, we have a moment that takes place during the events of the main plot where the Nishimiya family is gathered celebrating Yaeko's birthday.
