As they reached the front of the restaurant, Izumi and Mizutani's dates set them down, but the boys were so giddy from kissing that they could barely stand up on their own. The dance club senior wiped drool from the corner of Mizutani's mouth and then gave him one more quick kiss before dragging him inside. Izumi, who usually had an "I-don't-care" kind of attitude about everything, was staring into his date's eyes like he'd never see her again.
Momokan glanced worriedly at the two boys as they clutched their girls with a fierce passion. Wow, I've never seen them quite like this before, she thought to herself, absentmindedly twirling the straw that floated in her ice-cold water. Maybe Shiga's plan wasn't such a great idea after all.
Izumi and Mizutani began making out with their dates again, and Momokan turned away in disgust. Besides that little issue, though, what was up with Hanai? Who'd told him he could bring his little sisters?
"Onii-chan! Onii-chan!" screeched the twins. Hanai smacked his forehead.
"No, wait, call him by his first name!"
"Yeah, that always annoys him!"
"Azusa! Azusa! Azusa!" they yelled.
"Someone please shoot me," moaned Hanai.
Momokan decided that now was a good time to confront him. She walked over to Hanai's table, fire in her eyes, and sat down next to him, across from the chanting girls.
"Hanai, who said you could bring your little sisters as dates? Didn't I tell you the whole point of this is for you all to have real girlfriends so you can be happier and play better?"
"Yeah...umm...about that...well, all the good girls had been taken...and I didn't want to show up alone, 'cause I was afraid you'd do something to me...so I took Asuka and Haruka."
"Onii-chan! I mean, Azusa! You said that oka-chan made you take us here!" cried Asuka.
"Yeah, you didn't tell us that this was all just because you couldn't find a date!" Haruka chimed in.
The two girls began giggling, and Hanai slammed his head on the table in shame and utter humiliation. Between getting teased because of his underwear and being forced to take his monstrous twin sisters out on a "date," it had not been his week. To top it off, one of the pristine, huffy waiters just had to embarrass him to the highest degree.
"Eh, monsieur, you and your wife sure have some beautiful girls here," he declared.
At first Hanai was confused. "My...wife?" he asked. All of the sudden, though, with a sickening lurch in his stomach, he figured out what the waiter meant. He thought that Hanai was married to Momokan!
Upon realizing this, Hanai blushed so deeply that he would've made a tomato look pale in comparison. "She's my coach," he mumbled, trying to ignore his sisters' riotous laughter. "And they're my sisters."
"Ahahaha! Forgive me, young man. Although, you two would make a lovely couple."
Hanai willed his face not to turn purple from sheer embarrassment.
"Hmm," said Momokan. "Well...I would have to agree." Without further ado, she placed a hand under Hanai's chin and drew his face towards hers. Hanai's heart felt as though it would beat right out of his chest. Just when he thought she was going to kiss him for real, Momokan shoved Hanai's face out of the way.
"Just kidding!" she laughed.
"Man...I don't think I've ever been this embarrassed in my whole life," he moaned.
