Kotori stood beside Ryuji, she watched the subtle changes in Ryuji carefully.
"Sweat stains?!" Kotori's pupils shrank slightly. Ryuji and Umi just got together, so these sweat stains...
Thinking of Umi's slightly abnormal state recently, she recently read light novels to satisfy Ryuji's interest, and Ryuji has made many plots in her brain, getting closer to the truth.
"Not true..." Kotori trembled slightly. Although she agreed to Ryuji's "harem" before, but because she has never seen another girlfriend, she naively thinks of herself as the "one".
Now she had indeed seen her, and it was still her friend!
Kotori bit her lip lightly, this kind of thing really wasn't easy to accept.
"What's wrong Kototi? Are you uncomfortable?" Ryuji asked with concern.
"It doesn't matter." Kotori forced a smile.
Even though it was a bit strange, Ryuji didn't think much of it, he never thought that Kotori would doubt him and Umi because of the sweat stains on his clothes, was that a girl's intuition?
"Senpai, could you accompany me for a bit longer," Maki said in a tsundere manner, playing with the ends of her hair.
"Wow!"
The girls were stunned, Kotori is still here, is Maki going to declare war?
"That's not the case!" Maki blushed and refuted, but the scorn grew louder.
"What is the reason?" Ryuji didn't immediately agree.
"I want to introduce you to a friend."
"Huh, Maki-chan still have friends?" Rin exclaimed in surprise.
"Your words are impolite! Why do you think I have no friends!" Maki said angrily.
"Sorry." Rin showed an embarrassed expression.
Ryuji thought for a while, although he felt it was a bit troublesome, but Maki's request couldn't be ignored.
"I'm fine, but I need Kotori's approval." Ryuji nodded, he was Kotori's boyfriend, and at least his girlfriend's approval before being borrowed by another girl!
"En, I'm fine." Kotori said subconsciously.
Ryuji's eyes flashed, Kotori was indeed a bit strange.
...
After training, Ryuji and Maki walked together.
"Who are the friends you're talking about?"
"I met her at a music competition before. She is a violinist," said Maki.
Ryuji was confused and asked, "What does this have to do with me?"
Maki was silent for a while, and said: "She is my friend in music, and she has wanted to meet you since the last time she heard your music."
"..." Ryuji's face was slightly uncomfortable, because it wasn't his song at all.
Maki took Ryuji to a cake shop.
"The friend you mentioned is from this shop?" Ryuji asked.
"No, I'm here to buy cake."
Maki went to the counter and asked the store manager for a bag of Éclairs.
"Eclair..."
Eclairs were a famous cake in France, Ryuji remembered that Marie liked them very much.
He is the first to pay. Even though Maki was an Ojou-sama from a wealthy family, it would be embarrassing if he asked the other party to foot the bill when he was out with a girl.
Walking out of the cake shop, Ryuji asked: "You offer condolences, your friend is sick?"
It makes sense to express condolences when visiting a patient.
Maki nodded, "That's right."
Both came to a private hospital.
Ryuji moved his lips and asked, "This is your hospital?"
"Yes, is there a problem?" asked Maki.
"...It is nothing." It's always felt a little weird asking a friend to see a doctor in her own hospital.
Maki was constantly greeted by people from the moment she entered the door. As the daughter of the hospital's owner, she was the object of everyone vying for their affections.
Maki took Ryuji to the ward, and the faint smell of disinfectant water made people unaccustomed to it.
"Kaori, I am here to see you." Maki opened the door, with the faint smile on her face that she only has when she's being an inspiration.
"Ah, it's Maki-chan!" The girl sitting on the hospital bed exclaimed in surprise.
"This?" When she saw Ryuji behind Maki, she smirked: "Could it be Maki-chan's boyfriend?"
"B-boyfriend?! No!" Maki explained with a red face, without convincing.
"Ah, Maki-chan being so nervous is even more suspicious!"
"I'm not nervous! It's not clear what it means!"
The girl in the hospital bed looks very cheerful, and she doesn't look sick at all. Her long golden hair moved with the wind, emitting a distinct brilliance.
"You can't open the window when you're sick, what if it gets worse?" Maki went to help close the window in a reproachful tone.
"Sorry." The blonde girl touched her head and smiled shyly.
The blonde girl looked at Ryuji, smiled, and said, "Hello Onii-chan, my name is Miyazono Kaori, and I'm 14 years old this year!"
