"I always deemed myself worthy of being popular, call it ego I call it escapism, if it were a light novel I would be popular and have some certain-feel like-handpicked sleepover event, if it were a light novel that is *sighs*" I was thinking this bullshit while sitting at the dining table with my one and only friend Ichika and this supposedly guest from another world Aiko "hey!! What is that sight about!!, did I really disturbed something between you to!!" Ichika was like a ticking time bomb, hissing everytime I did something, "N- No you did- didn't, as, as ikari-sama said, we are just friends"..."sama?" Ichika looked over me, her eyes reflecting a murder "you made a girl call you sama??" And than she bursted into laughter, women really are unpredictable..."you!! You!! And sama!!, what are you? a respectable guy..." I think this is her usual self, so she is not angry anymore but still she feels more annoying today... "She just uses them, she comes from a rich family"
"Ohh I like the sound of it, but than why did you choose to befriend this otaku?" ... "Otaku??" Just in a spilt second Ichika grabbed my hand and pushed me inside my room "ichika!! What are you doing??"..."wha- ha what am I doing!!? What are you doing? Gaslighting a girl into thinking you're a normal person and not an otaku??" ... "Isn't that statement kinda controversial like, otakus are normal people, please don't disrespect them"..."well they maybe, but you're not"..."see I am not catphishing, she just comes from a rich-gated family, she doesn't know any otaku stuff... Just calm down" we finally went out, I thought that Aiko would be thinking stuff about this commotion caused by us but, no, she was just eating her food, slowly bringing the chopsticks to her mouth, blowing the hot food and than eating it, I again found myself seeing colors coming out of her, I was so captivated that I didn't realize, that Ichika was already on the table and was giving me death glares while I was there staring at Aiko "are. You. Sure. I. Didn't. Disturbed. Anything. ?. ?. ?." ... "Princess" Aiko blushed, this isn't how she reacted to me till now, she either called me 'hentai' and stuff, this was different "don- don't stare" ... "Oh o ok" as I sat down on the table, eating my food, I finally realized that, Ichika may get charged with murder tonight...
