Aspiring to be a girl in a band

Compared to Arakawa Kirika's order for her to take off her clothes, the additional sentence Arakawa Kirika added afterward seemed to hurt her even more.

Because judging from that statement, in Arakawa Kirika's eyes...

Am I... less important than this dress?

Xiangzi sighed.

Then her hands gradually reached the buttons on her collar.

Anyway... it's not the first time.

I was already mentally prepared for this, wasn't I?

Xiangzi said to himself.

This scumbag can be gentle to her depending on his mood, and he can also be cold to her depending on his mood.

These are all things that have happened before, but... why does she still feel so sad now?

Xiangzi quickly took off his coat, then his inner lining, and finally only his underwear remained.

Biting her lip lightly, Xiangzi's hand reached for the tie of her skirt.

"Wait a minute."

Just then, Arakawa Kirika suddenly spoke up to stop her.

Huh? This left Xiangzi, who had already prepared himself for what to do, somewhat bewildered, and his movements froze instantly.

Xiangzi looked up at Arakawa Kirika, only to see that the other woman had her brows furrowed and her expression had become somewhat...painful?

Arakawa Kirika is currently very distressed.

She asked herself whether she wanted a submissive slave or something else.

She could make Xiangzi smell like her whenever she wanted.

But... for some reason, she suddenly felt a little bored.

Although controlling Xiangzi brought her great pleasure, she now had a vague feeling that what she was seeking was no longer just superficial desire.

So... he lost interest in Xiangzi's naked body exposed to the air.

She wanted to see... a different expression on Xiangzi's face.

Arakawa Kirika looked at the tea table in front of her and the tea placed on it.

That was the tea that Xiangzi had brewed for her, but it had long since gone cold.

"Come a little closer."

Arakawa Kirika said softly to Shoko.

Xiangzi's face was now filled with doubt.

Because she couldn't understand what Arakawa Kirika was trying to do.

But she still obeyed Arakawa Kirika's orders.

She slowly moved to Arakawa Kirika's side, and the struggling expression on Arakawa Kirika's face made Shoko a little at a loss.

So, in order to make Arakawa Kirika happier, Shoko tried her best to lower her stance.

She didn't know why she wanted to please Arakawa Kirika.

Perhaps... I really have Stockholm syndrome.

A bitter smile appeared on Xiangzi's lips.

Arakawa Kirika reached out and picked up the tea that Shoko had brewed for her, her face expressionless.

then……

He forcefully splashed the tea from the cup onto Xiangzi's face.

...Huh?

At first, he was simply taken aback; Xiangzi seemed not to understand what had happened.

Until the water droplets on her face slowly slid down her cheeks, some splashing onto the ground, and some continuing to flow down her neck.

The tea soaked her underwear, then ran down her body and stained her skirt, finally dripping onto her feet.

Only then did she realize what this scumbag in front of her had done.

"Why...?"

Why do this?

But before Xiangzi could finish his question, Arakawa Kirika interrupted him.

"Fill it up."

Arakawa Kirika coldly gave the orders, completely disregarding Shoko's reaction.

Xiangzi told himself... he should be patient now; it's just a matter of being splashed with water... he's endured much greater grievances before, hasn't he? So... there's no need to get angry.

But no matter how much I tell myself to stay calm.

A look of sadness inevitably appeared on Xiangzi's face.

She kept her head down, not letting Arakawa Kirika see her expression, and then picked up the teapot to add a fresh cup of tea for Arakawa Kirika.

But then, Arakawa Kirika, holding a teacup in one hand, forcibly lifted Shoko's head with the other.

She splashed the freshly poured tea onto Xiangzi's face once again.

……

Xiangzi could no longer hold back. If she hadn't spoken up after being humiliated to this extent, she wouldn't know what difference she made from a stray dog ​​with its spine broken.

So she grabbed Arakawa Kirika by the collar.

Arakawa Kirika simply smiled and offered no resistance.

"What exactly do you want?! What...what did I do to offend you? What did I do to upset you?"

Xiangzi was furious.

She really didn't understand why she had always taken a submissive attitude towards Arakawa Kirika's various threats and unreasonable orders. Sometimes she even felt that she was being a bit despicable, suffering persecution from the other party but still unable to help but think about the other party's feelings.

She once wasted her own time taking care of Arakawa Kirika, and used the money she earned from a day's work to buy Arakawa Kirika chocolates that the latter would never even look at.

But what she got in return was Arakawa Kirika taking advantage of her and further hurting and humiliating her.

In that instant, Xiangzi realized again how unfair the world was. She even fantasized that Arakawa Kirika might remember the kindness she had shown her, and that she might be able to correct some of the other's twisted personality.

But everything proved that what she did was a joke.

She stared angrily into Arakawa Kirika's bloodshot eyes.

She really wanted to ask him, "Do you even have a conscience?"

But... Arakawa Kirika still kept smiling.

She just spoke slowly.

"So... you can get angry."

what?

The flames in Xiangzi's heart burned even more fiercely.

She really wanted to slap that scumbag.

The other party's completely unrepentant attitude hurt her deeply.

"Of course I'm angry... Of course I'm angry. Anyone would be angry if treated like that... You... You're really awful."

Despite his anger reaching its peak, Xiangzi's good upbringing prevented him from uttering any foul language, no matter how angry he was.

"Is that so?"

Arakawa Kirika murmured something softly, then easily broke free from Xiangzi's grasp by squeezing his wrist.

After all... the difference in their strength was simply too great.

This time, Arakawa Kirika directly lifted the teapot and held it high above Shoko's head.

……

Heh... Xiangzi gave a bitter laugh.

She only glanced at Arakawa Kirika's movements out of the corner of her eye, and then did not react at all.

She already guessed what Arakawa Kirika was going to do next, but she no longer intended to resist.

She didn't care anymore.

Then, Arakawa Kirika slowly poured all the tea from the teapot onto Shoko.

Her light blue hair instantly became as dirty and messy as the mop stubble.

Her face was also covered in liquid, it was hard to tell whether it was tea or tears.

Her body was completely soaked, and her only remaining underwear and skirt were so wet that they were unsightly.

"Since you're so angry, I'll kindly help you cool down."

Arakawa Kirika sneered, and after completing this "great feat," she casually tossed the teapot onto the ground.

Arakawa Kirika acted as if nothing had happened, leisurely returning to her original seat, as if the messy scene around her was something that happened in another world and had nothing to do with her.

A gust of wind rushed into the room.

Despite the warm breeze of late spring, Xiangzi felt as if the wind was biting cold.

Xiangzi slowly picked up the teapot from the ground and carefully placed it on the table.

She turned around and picked up her clothes that she had left aside.

Xiangzi didn't even bother to clean the water stains left on his body.

Right now, all she wants is to escape from here as quickly as possible.

After quickly getting dressed, she turned and left.

It's only afternoon now, far from when she'll "get off work."
