"Things aren't what they seem, I can explain," Kiyomi Liuli said dejectedly as she invited Sawada Yuko and Tsuda Yutaro into her house, poured tea, got some snacks, and sat down.
You two could at least give me a heads up before coming over to play. I was completely unprepared and got caught red-handed.
Fat Sawada Yuko sat like a judge in the middle, who could pass for Judge Bao with a blackened face, squinted her eyes into... two dots, and said in a very serious tone, "Very well, Liuli, no, Kiyomi, as your friend of ten years, I definitely need an explanation—why didn't you tell me about having a boyfriend? I absolutely cannot accept this!"
"What nonsense are you spouting," Kiyomi Liuli retorted angrily, "I don't have a boyfriend. I've said before that I'm not interested in that kind of thing anymore. He and I are just normal neighbors."
