Aspiring to be a girl in a band

Having received the praise she wanted, Ai Yin smiled sheepishly.

After watching her friends leave, Aine turned her gaze back to the two people diagonally in front of her.

I have this feeling... it's a little difficult to insert.

Ai Yin bit her lip lightly.

Ever since that day lantern abruptly confessed her feelings, Aine has always felt that she has been left behind by the two people in front of her, and it is difficult for her to improve her intimacy with Arakawa Kirika.

……

"Mist Flower Qun Doubt (Part 2) Order to Scatter and Lin Qi's Dad...Mist Flower."

After packing his things, Deng immediately called out the name of the person next to him.

When he didn't hear a response on the first call, he immediately called a second time.

Arakawa Kirika then turned her head and glanced at the lamp.

However, there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

“I heard you. Calling the name once is enough.”

Hearing Arakawa Kirika's reminder, Akari quickly nodded. That posture of her slightly hunched neck and looking up at the other person with a timid gaze, if a certain long-haired drummer were present, would probably be so cute that it would pierce his heart and leave him unable to get up.

But Arakawa Kirika remained completely unmoved.

"So, what's the matter?"

Arakawa Kirika asked directly.

The lamp paused for a moment, then its cheeks turned red in an instant, and it lowered its head.

"No... I just wanted to call out Wuhua's name."

Unfortunately, Arakawa Kirika is naturally immune to the cute side of girls. No matter how pitiful she looks, it can't touch Arakawa Kirika's heart. She only frowned at Akari's reaction.

Did I misjudge him? This guy is actually the clingy type?

It might be a bit troublesome to throw it away later.

……

At that very moment, a muffled thud came from behind them.

That was Aine banging her head against the table.

Aine had countless complaints she wanted to voice.

She couldn't understand how things had turned out this way.

Because, in Ai-yin's eyes, the way the light is behaving is exactly like that of an emotional young girl.

Even disregarding the fact that both Akari and Arakawa Kirika are of the same sex, this is progressing way too fast!!!

She, who prides herself on being a social butterfly, hasn't even made much progress with Ai Yin yet, so how did those two suddenly become so hot...?

Arakawa Kirika had finished packing her things, so she got up and prepared to leave.

This made Akari a little flustered, because usually at this time, Arakawa Kirika would accompany her back to the Astronomy Club, but today she left so decisively, without any intention of waiting for her.

"Mist Flower... Aren't you coming to the Astronomy Department today?"

"Deng asked urgently."

Arakawa Kirika turned her head and replied calmly.

"Yes, I have other reservations today."

The lamp's mood instantly plummeted.

"OK then."

Arakawa Kirika's brows furrowed even more.

She couldn't understand why Deng was so disappointed. She was leaving early today, and with Ai's help yesterday, she had already downloaded LINE and added the two of them as friends. If there was anything, they could just talk on LINE.

Forget it, Arakawa Kirika has never been one to dwell on such trivial matters, so she simply turned around and left the classroom.

……

Aine looked at the gloomy Akari in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and then chose to sit down next to Akari, in the same spot as Arakawa Kirika.

She shook the lamp's shoulder.

"Is the lamp-shaped ball cold Wu? Are you alright?"

Aiyin asked with concern.

The lamp pondered for a moment, then shook its head.

"Not good at all..."

The lamp's afterglow still followed Arakawa Kirika's departing figure, but of course, all that remained for her was nothing.

She really wanted to spend more time with Arakawa Kirika.

Ai Yin sighed.

If the lamp encounters any other troubles, Aiyin is confident she can help it solve them.

But... this kind of thing.

Aine had never experienced anything like this before; with zero experience, she had absolutely no idea how to comfort Akari.

In the end, the lamp spoke first.

"Aine...about forming a band..."

Before Deng could finish speaking, Ai Yin thoughtfully picked up the conversation.

"Ah... um... it's okay, I won't force you. If you really don't want to form a band, I'll go check out Ring's recruitment page. I heard from a friend that there's a lot of information about recruiting band members there."

"no."

The lamp shook its head vigorously, then its gray eyes looked directly into Aine's eyes.

"I mean... I accept, let's... form a band together."

Huh?!?

This time, Ai Yin was stunned. She had tried to get him to cooperate, but Deng's attitude towards the band had always been negative, even resistant. Now, however, he had suddenly accepted her invitation.

Aine thought for a moment.

I've heard before that girls who fall in love undergo amazing changes... Could this... also be thanks to Arakawa-kun?

So Aine asked cautiously.

"Why did you suddenly make up your mind, Lamp?"

"Yes...why is that?"

"I don't know why I suddenly gained this courage," Deng murmured.

"Perhaps it's because... I've discovered that the feeling of moving forward... isn't so bad."

Deng placed her hands on her chest and spoke calmly, but the slight tremor in her gray eyes seemed to prove that her heart was not as relaxed as it appeared.

What is she thinking? Could it be the person who gave her courage?

Aine didn't know, but she was certain.

This girl named Takamatsu Akari has fallen completely in love.

Then her future can be foreseen.

Because Arakawa Kirika has never been a gentle person, she will definitely cause great harm to Touka.

But Deng also said yesterday that she didn't care.

It's just like... a moth drawn to a flame.

Aine knew she had no way to advise Akari to give up, after all... her condition wasn't much better than Akari's.

Arakawa-san is such an incredible person... Even knowing there's danger involved, I still can't help but want to get close to her.

"Well... anyway, let's look for the remaining members together first."

After thinking for a long time, Ai Yin could only try to change the subject.

Book 1: Chapter 59 Temporary Service

Arakawa Kirika walked to the first floor of the teaching building and finally found her target in the shoe locker area.

Shoko Toyokawa, who had already changed her shoes, had been standing here waiting for a while.

The moment Xiangzi saw Arakawa Kirika, he immediately looked away, but his body remained obediently standing in place.

"You've been obedient, I'm very satisfied."

Arakawa Kirika walked to Shoko's side and then gently blew a breath into her ear.

Suppressing the tingling sensation in his ears, Xiangzi adjusted the shoulder strap of his clothes.

Arakawa Kirika casually tossed her bag onto Shoko's body.

This startled Xiangzi, but she quickly recovered, caught the bag, and held it in her hand.

Arakawa Kirika smiled.

"Not bad, I thought you'd forgotten who you are after just a few days."

Xiangzi still didn't want to say another word to the guy in front of him.

She just glared at Arakawa Kirika with a fierce look.

"Help me change my shoes."

Arakawa Kirika didn't take Xiangzi's "disrespectful" look to heart, but instead gave her a new order.

ha?

Xiangzi's eyes widened immediately.

She wondered if the guy in front of her had gone mad, especially since they were in school, and right in front of the shoe cabinets on the first floor where people were coming and going.

"You said... you wouldn't do anything excessive at school."
