Aspiring to be a girl in a band

In this kind of weather, to order five cold drinks at once, aren't you afraid of making yourself sick?

Lixi stole a glance at Arakawa Kirika.

It's obvious this guy spoils her. How could he let such a young girl eat five cold drinks at once? Riki thought angrily... She gets angry very easily every time she sees Arakawa Kirika.

Then she met Arakawa Kirika's eyes.

Although she was extremely unwilling, her duty as a waitress forced her to face Arakawa Kirika.

What would you like to order?

Arakawa Kirika simply pulled Ryuna away.

It's happening again!

Shiina Riki felt his whole body trembling.

Silence is the greatest contempt.

Arakawa Kirika's indifference to even exchanging a single word with her stung Shiina Tatsuki's pride.

"That wretched guy... I want... I want..."

Lixi angrily devised all sorts of ways to take revenge in his mind.

She took a packet of hot sauce out of her pocket—leftovers from yesterday's fried chicken, but she was glad she had brought it with her.

She was almost blinded by anger while making the matcha parfait.

She added a bag of hot sauce to the cold drink, and then "thoughtfully" made today's parfait extra large so as to cover up the color of the hot sauce.

She couldn't wait to see Arakawa Kirika cry from the spiciness.

But... in an instant, Li hope suddenly thought of something.

I'm so angry I'm practically dumbfounded...

She shook her head with a wry smile. Putting aside the fact that those five cups of parfait were clearly food for that stray cat, if she really did something like that, it wouldn't be Arakawa Kirika who got hurt.

And...does one really have to resort to such despicable means to retaliate against someone they dislike?

Lixi felt disgusted with his own behavior just now.

She quickly poured out the parfait and started making it again.

"It's all that guy's fault, he made me lose my senses..."

Biting her lip, Shiina Ritsuki glared fiercely at the location where Arakawa Kirika was.

……

Five glasses of barfi were laid out on the table.

Lena's eyes were so happy they almost turned into hearts.

Please enjoy your meal.

After saying a polite but emotionless remark, Shiina Tatsuki picked up the plate and prepared to leave.

Just then, Lixi suddenly felt something grab her arm.

She turned around impatiently, because she was sure it was the stray cat playing some kind of prank.

But she saw that the one who grabbed her was Arakawa Kirika.

As for the stray cats, they had long been immersed in Buffett's world.

Shiina Riki felt as if her heart skipped a beat.

But she still had to pretend to be tough.

"Is there something you need?"

Arakawa Kirika looked up at Riki and then said.

"I just felt like you looked familiar."

As she spoke, Arakawa Kirika seemed to lose interest and let go of Riki's hand.

ha? ?

Lixi felt a little confused.

Then she strode away quickly.

But for some reason, Arakawa Kirika's words began to echo in her mind.

She tried countless times, but still couldn't make Arakawa Kirika remember her.

Even if you remember now...

I won't be happy at all.

Book 1: Chapter 24 Taming

Although the shop assistant with long, straight black hair looked somewhat familiar to Arakawa Kirika, she put the matter out of her mind after the woman left.

For her, things she can't recall immediately mean they aren't very valuable, so she's too lazy to remember them.

They turned their attention back to their pets.

Arakawa Kirika rested her chin on one hand, looking at Rakuna with a smile—although from an outsider's perspective, the corners of her mouth did not appear to be upturned at all.

Awesome.

Arakawa Kirika secretly praised Rakuna in her heart.

What she admired was Lena's unwavering loyalty to her desires.

Lena would never feign refusal first and then pretend to accept it reluctantly.

When faced with something she loves, Lena only has one reaction: "Accept it decisively."

Arakawa Kirika really liked this kind of straightforward, unpretentious desire.

Unlike some boring guy who always hides his desires deep inside and then arms himself with cheap pretense.

……

"Ah..."

Nagasaki Motoyo was sitting on her bed when she suddenly sneezed.

The sneeze made her lose her grip on her phone.

Just as the phone was about to fall to the ground, Su Shi reacted quickly and hurriedly caught it.

Nagasaki Motoyo breathed a sigh of relief; her tension wasn't due to worry that her phone would break if it fell to the ground.

Instead, she was afraid... that if her phone hit the ground, the message she had already edited would be sent automatically.

Su Shi looked at the sentence she had already edited.

[Xiangzi...can we find a chance to talk...I really have so much...so much I want to tell you.]

Su Shi stared at the sentence for a long time before sighing and slowly deleting it.

She still remembers that day when she waited in front of Xiangzi's house and finally saw him.

But the other person said to her.

You might as well drown in your memories.

Nagasaki Motoyo doesn't understand, and even today, she still doesn't understand why Xiangzi left the troupe, let alone why Xiangzi transferred schools.

Xiao Mu must know something, but... she's unwilling to tell me.

He sighed again.

Nagasaki Motoyo thought back to that day, when Shoko's tone was so cold, completely opposite to her gentle demeanor in the band.

Is she... Xiangzi simply tired of everyone... or does she just... hate me?

Thinking of this, Su Shi buried her head under the pillow, feeling somewhat aggrieved.

But even so...

I won't give up either.

Nagasaki Motoyo thought to herself.

……

Lena quickly finished a cup of parfait, and without the slightest hesitation, immediately picked up the second cup.

To prevent the breadflakes from melting, Lenai had to eat faster, resulting in her face being covered in sticky frosting.

This added a touch of comicality to Lena's delicate and pretty face.

But Arakawa Kirika had no intention of helping Rakuna wipe it off. She refused to touch the stains with her hands, even through a napkin.

So she pointed to Lena's cheek.

Ryuna stared blankly at Arakawa Kirika's fingers, blinked in surprise, and then stopped swallowing.

Through long-term training, Renai was able to accurately read Arakawa Kirika's instructions.

Lena turned her head and looked around, but found that there were no napkins on the nearby tables, which made her a little uneasy.

We have to hurry, or we'll anger Wuhua...

That's what Lena thought.

She still remembers the pain of having her face pinched by Arakawa Kirika.

Suddenly, as if realizing something, Lena reached into her pocket and took out a small pack of tissues.

This is what her grandmother put in her pocket when she left home today.

Lena breathed a sigh of relief.

Only after wiping all the dirt off her face did Renai raise her head again, revealing her appearance to Arakawa Kirika.

Arakawa Kirika nodded in satisfaction.

Lena felt as if her achievements had been recognized.

Then they happily resumed eating.
