"Sacchan! You're too cute!"
"…" *munch munch*
Kohaku was hugging and snuggling Sakurako after seeing her blush from being hugged by Ichiro, Sakurako, on the other hand, wasn't bothered by Kohaku doing that, but her cheeks were still tinged in a pink color due to Ichiro's hug as she also ate the cookies he had given to her
"… So where will we be going now, Kohaku?"
Himri who was unable to endure watching Kohaku being clingy to Sakurako, asked that as she pulled Kohaku away from Sakurako
"How about we go to the shopping mall? I'm sure we'll find something to buy there!"
"Well… I don't dislike going shopping from time to time, so that's fine by me"
"… … … A tsuntsun Himari-chan is not bad either!"
"H-Hey! Stop it!"
Kohaku after seeing Himari acting like a tsundere, began hugging and snuggling her, Himari showed an annoyed and embarrassed face, but she didn't appear to hate it either
"… !" *Looking at the empty plastic bag*
As for Sakurako, after seeing that she had eaten all of the cookies, she decided to take a nap, so she picked up her scarf and unfolded it, revealing that it was wide enough to act as a blanket, which she started using as one as she began taking a nap
Some time later
"Fuaaa…"
Sakurako was yawning, while she had her scarf around her arms looking more like a cape, as she felt that she could sleep a bit more while she followed diagonally to the left and behind Himari, as she lead the way, Kohaku was also following Himari
"Alright, you two. Let's set a few rules, first of all, we'll stay together and not wander away on our own…"
"!"
Then as Himari was explaining the rules, Sakurako wandered in the direction of a place that caught her interest
"Second, if we stop to see something, we'll warn the others so that we won't continue walking…"
"!"
Then Kohaku who saw a bunch of puppies at the window of a pet store stopped walking and went to see the puppies, leaving Himari walking by herself
"And third… … … *Turns around* Don't go doing your own things as I speak!"
Himari who had noticed a lack of voices coming from behind her stopped talking for a moment and turned 180º to see where Sakurako and Kohaku went, and she immediately spotted the two. Sakurako was ordering a fried snack,, while Kohaku was pressing her face against the pet store window, seeing the two immediately do the very things that she had said for them not to do, made Himari angry which caused her to shout
A few moments later
"…"
"… *Munch munch*"
"Aaaaaahh…"
Himari was now dragging the two by the collar, Kohaku was sad about being separated from the pet store window, while Sakurako was eating the snack she had ordered with her usual blank face
"… *Munch munch swallow* Fuuh… Where are you taking us to, Himari-chan?"
"To a clothes store"
"Ah! I see you want to get new clothes for a new party so that you can increase your chances of getting a boyfriend there!"
"Wrong!"
"It's not? Then… Ah! You want to wear and see Sacchan wearing cute clothes!"
"I-It's not that either!"
It was exactly that, not long after the three arrived at a clothes store famous for having very good and even more expensive products, which only people like the three girls could afford to buy. Once inside, the three began checking the various pieces of clothes available in the store, mainly Kohaku and Himari, these two were the ones searching for clothes with a lot of seriousness
As for Sakurako, she was deciding everything on how comfy she found the fabric to be and on how easy to move those clothes were, with the addendum that they showed as little skin as possible
After a long while, the three finished their clothes hunting, but of course, Kohaku didn't pick clothes just for her
"Sacchan! Please try this!"
"… No"
The clothes that Kohaku had shown to Sakurako were a frilly set of Jiraikei-style clothes, but the moment that she saw how short the skirt was and the short sleeves, she refused on wearing it
"! *Shocked* T-Then, this one!"
"No"
The next clothes Kohaku showed Sakurako was a China dress that showed a lot of skin, which Sakurako promptly refused, so Kohaku went on to try having Sakurako wear another set of clothes, with most of them being the types that showed a good amount of skin. While those two were doing that, Himari went on to see what clothes Sakurako had picked for herself
"…"
Then Himari felt something made of plastic, a package, and when she pulled it out from underneath the layers of clothes, she saw that it was a package of boxer briefs
"… Oi, Sacchan?"
"Hm? What is it, Himari-chan?"
"… Why the hell are you picking a package of boxer briefs!?"
"Because they're comfortable to use!"
"You're supposed to wear panties! I'm confiscating these from you!"
"… … … Tsk"
"After this, we'll go to a lingerie store to buy more panties for you"
"Fine…"
"Sacchan! Sacchan! H-how about these two? C-Can you try them?"
Kohaku who was desperately trying to have Sakurako wear the clothes that she had picked up for her, showed Sakurako a Hanbok and a red wine kimono with a floral pattern
"… Sure"
"! Yay!"
With that, Sakurako picked the hanbok and the kimono that Kohaku had handed to her, and she went to the dressing booth to try those two, and not too long after, she came out wearing the hanbok
"Kyaaa! You're too cute, Sacchan!"
"*Nods* I have to agree with Kohaku on this"
"… … …" *Checking herself and the hanbok* "Humu *Nodding*"
After showing the two the hanbok, Sakurako returned to the dressing booth and came back out wearing the kimono
"Kyaaaa! Now you're looking cute and classy, Sacchan!"
"*Nods* Your height definitely helps in giving you a classy vibe while wearing a kimono"
"… … …" *Checking herself and the kimono* "Humu *Nodding*" "What are you think about, Sacchan?"
And once again, Sakurako returned to the dressing booth, but this time she left while wearing the clothes that she had been using until now while the hanbok and kimono were on her right arm, then she walked to the shopping cart she was using and put both of them inside it
"I found everything that I wanted here"
"Me too"
"Then let's go pay for those, and continue with our outing"
With that, the three went to the cashiers, and there they were shown the total cost of all of the clothes giving a very big number with many zeroes, which for a normal person it would be exorbitant. But, the three girls were unfazed by the numbers shown to them and simply paid the required amount with their credit cards
After paying for their clothes, the three left the clothes store and began making their way to the lingerie store to buy more feminine underwear for Sakurako. But as they made their way there, Himari noticed that Sakurako was thinking about something
"Sacchan, what are you thinking about?"
"I decided that from now on I'll only participate in formal events wearing either my new hanbok or kimono!"
"Denied! What do you think people will think of you if you go to a party dressed in either of them!"
"… That I am cute?" *Tilting her head to the side*
Himari tried to argue back, but she couldn't find a good argument against that, because she saw with her own eyes, that Sakurako looked really cute and good in the Hanbok and the Kimono, especially the kimono since it also gave her a very classy aura
