"And with that, we are finished for this semester, summer break has officially begun," said Ishigami as he finished the final documents for the school year before popping a party popper in celebration as the Student Council celebrated, "Yay, its summertime," Moeha said cheerfully, "I can't wait to go shopping" Chika added, "So you got any plans for the summer Ishigami?" Kei asked as she was putting her things away, "Not really, I might try to do something for once this summer" Ishigami replied as he gathered his things, "Playing video games doesn't count either" said Miko as everyone left the room, "Why don't we all get ramen? Ishigami`s paying" Chika said to which Ishigami sighed as he locked the door
A Few Days into summer break
"Man, what time is it?" Ishigami thought as he checked his phone while in the middle of a video game, "Yu, there's a call for you" said Mrs. Ishigami, "Oh I'll get it then" said Ishigami as he went to pick up the phone, "Hello?", "Oh hey Ishigami," said the caller, "Miyuki? What's going on?" Ishigami asked as he realized who the caller was, "Hey since were back in Japan for the summer, me and Kaguya were thinking we should all take a summer vacation in Shimoda to relax, are you down?" Miyuki asked, "Eh, the beach? You know I'm not really a sociable person" Ishigami replied, "Come on, it won't be too bad, not to mention you could use a break from the Student Council work," said Miyuki, "All right I guess, I'll ask my parents first, I`ll call you back," said Ishigami as he hung up and left his room,
"Mom is it cool if I go on vacation with my friends for two weeks?" Ishigami asked as he took a drink out of the fridge, "If it means you won't be holed up at home playing video games all day, sure go ahead, where are you going?" Mrs. Ishigami asked as she was cleaning the dishes, "We`re going to Shimoda" Ishigami replied as he popped open his can of cola, "Ah Shimoda, I haven't been back there since I was about your age, you`ll have a great time there" said Mrs. Ishigami, "Alright good to know" said Ishigami as he went back to his room and called back Miyuki
"Hey I asked my mom, she's cool with me going with you guys," Ishigami said, "Perfect, I'll see you in a few days," said Miyuki, "Cool, see you then," said Ishigami as he hung up, "Well looks like I'm going on vacation," Ishigami thought as he started looking for things to pack for the trip
3 Days Later
"Heres your stuff for the vacation, make sure you put plenty of sunscreen on, also try not to get into any trouble," said Mrs. Ishigami as she put some supplies into Ishigami`s duffel, "Yeah yeah, I'll be back in two weeks," said Ishigami as he picked up his duffel along with his backpack and headed out, "This is gonna be an interesting two weeks," Ishigami thought as the last thing he expected was going on vacation with the Student Council
Shinomiya Residence
"Here we are, wow I forget how big this place is," Ishigami thought as he walked through the gate of the Shinomiya mansion, "Oh Ishigami, you're here," said Hayasaka as she opened the door, "Hey Hayasaka, where is everyone else?" Ishigami asked, "They're all in the living room, I'll take you there," said Hayasaka as she led Ishigami to the living where everyone was waiting, "Yo Ishigami, you made it," said Miyuki as he gave Ishigami a dap, "Oh, that's new," said Ishigami as he wasn't expecting his friend to return a greeting like that, "Oh, this is very common among Americans," said Miyuki, "Ah okay," said Ishigami as he took a seat on one of the couches, "Alright, since everyone is here, let`s go over what will happen these next two weeks," said Kaguya
"So how long until we get to Shimoda?" Ishigami asked as the group walked outside with their luggage, "It'll take us about 3 hours to get there" Kaguya replied, "Three hours? Golly, what are we gonna be doing during that time?" Ishigami asked, "It won't be too bad, we can make some pit stops if anyone's hungry or if anyone needs a bathroom break "May I ask what we're going to be traveling in?" Ishigami asked to which they heard a honk as a Lincoln limo pulled up into the driveway, "Lady Kaguya, at your service" said the chauffeur as he got out of the car "Well at least were traveling in something nice" said Ishigami as he put his luggage into the trunk, "You said it, road trip" Chika said cheerfully as the group quickly loaded their luggage and proceeded to Shimoda
"So how have things been so far?" Kaguya asked the group, "Things are fine, although I wish Ishigami would take the role of president more seriously" said Miko to which everyone laughed except for Ishigami, "Now now, I'm sure Ishigami is trying his best as the new president, its very tough to fill in the shoes of Miyuki" said Kaguya, "How are things in America together?" Chika asked, "We had a great semester in Stanford, although the standards in America are much looser than it is in Japan, wouldn't you agree Miyuki?" said Kaguya, "I`ll say," said Miyuki to which the group laughed, "This is gonna be a long ride, anyone got any snacks?" Chika asked to which Ishigami sighed and pulled out a bag of chips, "You want so?" Ishigami asked as he offered them to Chika, "Ooh thanks" said Fujiwara as she grabbed a handful of chips much to Ishigami`s joy
3 hours later at Shimoda Tokyu Hotel
"Well we finally made it," Ishigami said as he stepped out of the car in front of their hotel, "That car ride was kinda fun wasn't it?" Chika said as she took her luggage out, "You need some help with that?" Ishigami asked as he noticed that Miko was struggling with her luggage, "Oh uh thanks" said Miko as Ishigami took her luggage from the trunk, "Anyways, why don't we get checked in first before we do any activities" Kaguya proposed as everyone got their luggage and headed into the hotel to which the group was wowed immediately by the luxury of the hotel, "Ah welcome, lady Shinomiya we've been expecting you," said the receptionist, "Ah yes, I believe I reserved 4 rooms for the next two weeks" Kaguya said to the receptionist, "Ah yes, here are your key cards, if you need any assistance, please don`t hesitate to ask" said the receptionist as she handed Kaguya the key cards
"Alright I've got our keycards for the rooms, me and Miyuki will be sharing a room which leaves six of you, you can decide who you want as your roommate for the next two weeks there are no restrictions, "I'm going with Kei," Moeha said quickly, "I'll go with Miko," said Hayasaka which left only two people, "You gotta be kidding me," Ishigami said in disbelief, "There`s no way this is correct right?" Chika asked frantically, "Everyone already chose their rooms, gotta be quicker next time," said Kaguya to which Ishigami and Chika groaned as Kaguya handed everyone their keycards
"Ah, this is great," said Ishigami as he opened the door to their room which had a suite in it as well, "Yeah, Kaguya managed to get us some nice rooms, guess that's what happens when you're one of the richest families in Japan," said Chika as she unpacked her luggage, "I still don't know how we of all people ended up in a room together, what happened to boys and girls being separate?," said Ishigami as he jumped on the bed, "I didn`t ask for this either," said Chika as she put her luggage aside when her phone chimed "Hey, I got a text saying we're going to the beach, so grab whatever you need for the beach, we`re heading down to the hotel lobby in 20," said Chika, "All right, so much for relaxing in our room," said Ishigami as he quickly moved some stuff into his backpack
The beach, the paradise where tourists and young people alike go to enjoy themselves mostly to see the hot babes or get away from their problems, it`s also the premise for most fan service episodes in anime and manga, also be careful with the hot sand and sunburn, we`ve all experienced this at least once
"Alright everyone we`re here," said Kaguya as the group arrived at Shirahama beach, "It`s a bit more packed than I thought," said Ishigami as he noticed that there were quite a lot of people there already, "Alright, let's all get changed and meet back near the steps to the beach," said Miyuki as the group split up
"Good thing I've been working out lately," Ishigami thought as he walked out of the changing room in his blue swimsuit, "You finished?" Miyuki asked as he came out as well, "Yeah, I don't really plan on being in the water too much today" said Ishigami, "Sorry, were you two waiting long?" said Kaguya as she came up to them with the others, "Holy crap, this is too much for me, Chikas and Kaguya seem to have grown one sizer bigger," Ishigami thought as he was trying to steal glanced which Chika noticed "What's the matter Ishigami? Like what you see?" Chika asked as she flaunted her swimsuit in a suggestive way to which Ishigami turned even red,der "It nothing" Ishigami replied, "Now now Fujiwara, don't tease Ishigami like that" said Kaguya, "Fujiwara-senpai, don't give Ishigami the wrong idea, he might think you're into him and he'll turn into a pervert" Miko whispered to Chika much to Ishigami`s chagrin, "You know I can hear you right?" said Ishigami, "Anyways, why don't we head on down and find somewhere to set up" said Kaguya to which the group headed down
"This spot will do," said Miyuki as the group found a spot in the middle of the beach that wasn`t too crowded, "Lady Kaguya, would you like me to put some sunscreen on you?" Hayasaka asked Kaguya as they were setting up their post, "Sure that would nice" said Kaguya as she laid down, "Good thing there's a spray sunscreen out there" Ishigami thought as he sprayed himself with sunscreen,
"Ishigami, can you help me put on some sunscreen?" Chika asked as she laid down on the towel, "Can`t you get Miko to do it?" Ishigami asked, "Come on just put some on me," said Chika to which Ishigami sighed and started putting sunscreen on Chika`s back, "Oh that`s the spot, keeping rubbing it," said Chika, "Keep your voice down, don`t give everyone the wrong idea," Ishigami said frantically however it was too late as Miko and Moeha were watching them the whole time, "Oh my doing something so shameless on the beach, save that for the hotel room," Moeha said mischievously, "Indecent," Miko said embarrassingly, "It`s not what it looks like," both said at the same time in embarrassment
"So how is being the Student Council President faring for you?" Miyuki asked Ishigami as the two were under the shade while the girls were enjoying themselves, "Its alright, but it`s got nothing on being a treasurer" Ishigami replied to which Miyuki chuckled, "It's alright, its a big responsibility, not everyone can handle it, so how are things going with her?" Miyuki asked, "Who? Miko? Tsubame?" Ishigami asked, "No, Fujiwara," said Miyuki, "Oh her, things are okay, she's the vice president now," said Miyuki which sent a shiver down Miyukis spine, "You picked Fujiwara to be your second in command?" Miyuki asked, "Yeah, I picked her since you know that me and Miko won`t work as well as putting me and her together is like putting two opposites with each other and the other girls aren`t experienced enough to have that big of a position yet" Ishigami explained, "Give it time, you`ll get used to being president over time, you remind me of myself when I first became president," said Miyuki to which the two laughed
"Miyuki, let's go for a swim together," said Kaguya, "Best you don`t keep her waiting," said Ishigami to which Miyuki nodded "Be there in a sec," said Miyuki as he got up and walked over, "Well at least these two are getting along rather well, wished I could be as lucky," Ishigami thought as he watched the two play around in the water, "Man I`m gonna go get a cola or something I`m thirsty," said Ishigami as he got up and walked towards the snack bar
"Man I'm still not used to the beach yet," Ishigami thought as he took a sip of his cola as he walked around and noticed a group of guys around Chika, "Hey girl, you by yourself? Come with us," said a group of boys as they were flirting with Chika, "No thanks," said Chika, "Come on, it's fine," said another male, "Man the players would be here, guess I better do something," Ishigami thought as he walked towards Chika "Geez, there you are, I've been looking for you," said Ishigami as he walked over to Chika, "Oh hi Ishigami, sorry boys I gotta get going," said Chika as she wrapped herself on Ishigami`s arm, "Damn that guy is so lucky that he has a girlfriend," said one of the guys
"Thanks for helping me out back there," Chika said as they made it back to their spot, "Yeah, don't mention it, you should be more careful, guys can be unpredictable sometimes," said Ishigami to which Chika grinned, "What`s the matter, you jealous that someone might take me?" Chika asked, "No, I`m just making sure that you don`t get snatched up by a creep" Ishigami replied to which Chika grabbed his hand, "Hey let`s go to the ocean, I wanna go for a swim" said Chika, "Eh? I don`t really like the ocean," said Ishigami, "Oh is it because you can`t swim?" Chika teased, "Fine let`s go," said Ishigami as they walked towards the water, "Geez this water is too cold for me," Ishigami thought as he to which Chika splashed some water on him, "Hey what was that for?" Ishigami asked, "Catch me if you can," said Chika to which Ishigami sighed as he chased Chika through the water trying to splash her, "Look at those two, playing around like a couple," Moeha said with a smile, "Wonder how long those two will last given their personalities," said Hayasaka
Later
"Since we're here let's play a suikawari" said Kaguya as the group was relaxing, "Doesn't it seem too cliche to play a game like that on the beach?" Ishigami asked, "It'll be fine, anyone up?" Miyuki asked as Hayasaka came back with a watermelon along with a blindfold and a wooden bat, "I say our esteemed Student Council President should go" said Moeha, "What? Why me?" Ishigami asked, "Come on, do it for the Student Council" Miyuki pleaded to which Ishigami sighed, "All right fine, let`s get this over with," said Ishigami as he got up and was blindfolded
"To your right," said Miyuki as Ishigami moved around as the gang was trying to help him out, "Your other right," said Kaguya "Left, right, right, left, back, forward, right," Chika said quickly as she was also recording this on camera, "Dammnit Fujiwara, you're not helping me!" Ishigami said annoyed as he struggled to find the watermelon to which he was losing patience, "Where is this damn watermelon?" Ishigami thought as he moved around trying to find the watermelon to which he tripped and fell in the sand grabbing something else along with him,
"Damn it what am I touching? More importantly, did I faceplant myself on the ground?" Ishigami thought as he tried to move his hands as his face was buried in something, "Holy crap, this is too much" said Miyuki as he tried to cover Kei`s eyes, "Mmmh" said Chika as Ishigami was rubbing around her chest, "I think I found the watermelon but it seems too soft at least it feels nice, but I don't have the bat anymore" Ishigami thought as he was still trying to find his bearings unaware that he was making the situation worse, "Shouldn't we stop them?" Miko asked in concern, "Nah, they're fine, this is too good" said Moeha as she was recording them as the rest of them watched unsure how to feel about the situation in front of them
"I think that's enough for now," said Miyuki as the situation was getting hectic, "Damn it, where is that watermelon?" Ishigami asked as he was about to take off his blindfold to which Chika placed the watermelon in front of him, "Damn I was so close, but what was I touching?" Ishigami said as he moved his hand around causing Chika to blush profusely, "Let`s not worry about that, does anyone want a drink from the snack bar?" Kaguya asked as she broke the ice, "I need to use the bathroom" Chika said to which she quickly ran towards the restroom, "I can`t believe this he touched me, more importantly, he touched my boobs and motorboated them, I swear I`ll make him pay for that!" Chika thought as she grit her teeth
"Achoo," said Ishigami as he sneezed, "You good?" Miyuki asked Ishigami, "I`m fine, although I feel something disturbing coming up," said Ishigami as he felt a chill in his spine, "You can worry about that later, we`re gonna head out to get dinner soon," said Miyuki
Later in the evening
"So what do you all have planned for the rest of this trip?" Chika asked as the group was eating dinner at a restaurant chatting amongst each other, "I was planning to do some sightseeing with Miyuki since we're free to do what we want as we`re college students, what about you guys?" Kaguya asked as she took a bit from her steak, "I was planning on exploring the restaurants around" said Chika, "I wanna go shopping with Kei" Moeha said cheerfully, "I`ll just do some sightseeing, not too sure what I`ll do" said Ishigami, "Whatever the case, I`m sure we`ll have plenty of time to enjoy our vacation, but for now I would like to propose a toast to celebrate us all being here on vacation" said Miyuki as he raised his glass, "Cheers" said everyone as they touched glasses and continued to enjoy themselves
"Alright everyone, enjoy the rest of the night off," said Kaguya as the group went their separate ways, "Hey Ishigami I heard there was an arcade around in this hotel, you wanna come?" Miyuki asked as they were walking, "Yeah I'm down, I haven't played these games for a while, is Kaguya okay with it" Ishigami replied, "Yeah she`s okay with it" said Miyuki to which Miko cleared her throat "I'm coming with you two" said Miko much to the surprise of the two, "Why?, you don't play video games at all" said Ishigami, "I have to make sure that the former and current Student Council president don't engage in unethical behavior, now let's go" said Miko to which Ishigami and Miyuki sighed, "So much for guys night" both thought as they headed to the arcade
At the Arcade
"Dude, you gotta crouch more," Ishigami said to Miyuki as he died yet again as they were playing on a Rambo machine, "Geez, I guess this game isn't for me, I`ll take a T" said Miyuki, "Can I try?" Miko asked much to Ishigami`s surprise, "Can you even play this?" Ishigami asked, "Are you doubting me? Give me the gun" said Miko as she grabbed the gun attached to the game, "Alright, try not to take any damage" said Ishigami as they started the game back up, "Take cover if you need it, we can take our time" Ishigami instructed, "Got it" said Miko as they continued playing it for a while, "Look at those two, maybe they have more in common than they think" Miyuki thought as he watched the two play the game well
"Hey we beat it, can`t say I was expecting that," said Ishigami as they saw the final cutscene of the game, "How`d you get into playing these games?" Ishigami asked, "Rei introduced me to some games and I started liking them" Miko replied, "Thank you Rei, now I might actually be able to play video games in the Student Council Office," Ishigami thought
"What you up to now?" Ishigami asked as he noticed that Miko was struggling with a machine, "I`m trying to win one of the prizes on the machine, but I can`t win for some reason" said Miko as she was trying to win the, "Here let me try" said Ishigami as he walked up to the machine, "Oh I did it, here you go" said Ishigami as he won the prize and handed it to Miko, "Oh thanks Ishigami, how did you manage to do it?" Miko asked, "Simple, you gotta beat the system, it`s designed to be rigged sometimes," said Ishigami, "My, you`ve become quite the playboy haven`t you?" Miyuki said impressed, "Come on, I`m not that popular," said Ishigami, "That`s right if you ever became too popular it`d be a pain as I`d have to watch your every move to which the two starting bickering to which Miyuki couldn`t help but laugh "Anyways it`s getting kinda late, why don`t we head back?" said Miyuki, "Yeah, let`s head back," said Ishigami as the group left the arcade calling it a night
"That wasn't too bad, see this is what happens when you become looser," Ishigami said to Miko as they took the elevator up to their floor, "Don't get the wrong idea, you better not try anything funny with Fujiwara or else you'll have to answer to me," said Miko as they arrived on their floor, "Yeah yeah, I promise not to do anything," Ishigami said sarcastically, "Good, remember I`m watching you, good night," said Miko as she went into her room, "What`s up with this trip so far? Every time so far I`ve been involved with Fujiwara one way or another, can`t be a coincidence right?" Ishigami thought as he went back into his room
"Well at least now I have some free time to play some video games," Ishigami thought as he plugged his Ps5 into the tv, "That felt so nice," said Chika as she came out of the bathroom with just her towel on unaware that Ishigami was in the room as well to which she turned red, "Eek, Ishigami! What are you doing here?! First at the beach and now in the room, are you trying to see me," said Chika as she quickly went back into the bathroom, "No I'm not, you know this is my room as well" Ishigami replied sarcastically as he put a Monster Hunter disc into the Ps5, "I thought you were still at the arcade with Miyuki and Miko," Chika said as she came back out, "Well we came back a bit earlier than planned," said Ishigami as he got to his video game
Later
"Did you have fun hanging out with her?" Chika asked as she grabbed a drink from the fridge, "Why do you care? I thought you would want some time alone" said Ishigami, "I was just worried that you had some funny ideas with her" said Chika, "Geez, what do you take me for? Are you jealous that I`m hanging out with Miko?" Ishigami asked to which Chika turned red, "Me? Jealous of you? Not in a million years, keep dreaming" Chika said as she hopped on the bed, "Sure, that`s what they all say" Ishigami replied as he turned back to his video game
"I'm gonna go to bed, you better not try anything funny, also try not to play too late," said Chika as she got into the bed as it was pretty late, "Yeah like I'm gonna do that" Ishigami replied as he got back to his game, "So Ishigami, you're in a room with a beautiful girl all alone, doesn't that make your heart skip a beat?" Chika whispered into Ishigami's ear, "What? What are you talking about?" Ishigami said flustered to which Chika started laughing, "I knew you would react this way, so you do have urges after all, by the way, you died," Chika said mockingly as she pointed to the tv as his character had indeed died, "Just don`t make a mess of yourself," said Chika to which Ishigami grit his teeth, "That woman, I`ll get her back," Ishigami thought in annoyance as Chika`s teasing was starting to get to him
"Damn it, why`d Fujiwara have to say all that, now I can`t sleep," Ishigami thought as he was still flustered by Chika`s teasing, "Dammit, at this rate I might lose control of myself," said Ishigami to which Chika moved and grabbed part of the blanket, "On second thought I might have other problems to worry about," Ishigami thought as he tried to get his side of the covers back
The Next Day
"What time is it?" Ishigami thought as he reached to grab his phone, "9:30?" Guess I better get up" said Ishigami as he got up, but he heard a noise, "Mmh, morning already?" Chika said groggily as Ishigami had touched her side, "Fujiwara, what are you doing on my bed?" Ishigami asked as he quickly got up, "Your bed? This is my bed" Chika shouted to which the two realized what was going on, "There's only one bed, so this whole time we slept together, we didn`t did we?" both thought in dismay while they were getting ready, "Geez, wonder what we`re gonna be doing" said Chika as she reached for her phone and saw a text
Text message: It seems that you two had a long night, everyone else went out to explore on their own, have fun you two, try not to get too crazy - Kaguya
"Great, just the perfect situation to be stuck in" both thought as this was unexpected even for them, "Aww man, I shouldn't have overslept if I knew that I was gonna be stuck with you, "I think we should get some breakfast first, I heard there`s a buffet downstairs," said Ishigami as he finished changing clothes, "A buffet, perfect" Chika said cheerfully as she quickly grabbed her hat and purse, "At least that`ll keep her quiet for a bit," Ishigami thought as they walked down to the elevator
"So what do you wanna do today since it's just the two of us?" Ishigami asked as they finished breakfast, "Let's walk around town, there should be some attractions around here" said Chika as they walked out of the hotel, "What's around here?" said Ishigami as he looked through the tour book, "There a maid cafe that's really popular and there`s a shopping center" said Ishigami, "Oh so you wanna see some maids huh?" Chika teased, "Even so I think the maids would show some more class than you" Ishigami replied back to which Chika was about to reply back, but decided it was best not to answer back
"What do you think about this shirt Ishigami?" Chika asked as she looked at a Supreme t-shirt at a Uniqlo at the mall "Ishigami?" Chika asked as she noticed that he was staring into space, "Oh sorry, that stuff is for people who want to fit the current trend unless you`re a hypebeast I wouldn`t go for it" said Ishigami, "I wanna fit the current trend so I might get it, oh this might be perfect for you" said Chika as she took out a shirt with a quote from a well known manga, "Eh I like reading manga a lot, I`m not too sure if this is something I would wear, but it looks cool none the less, you getting anything?" said Ishigami as he took the shirt, "I might some t-shirts and this pink dress" said Chika "Guess we`ll just pay for our stuff, look around the mall some more and grab some food later" said Ishigami they walked to the cashier, "Sounds like a plan" said Chika as they left the clothing store
At the maid cafe 1:00 pm
Maid cafes, the restaurant that attracts otakus and single guys as they can be served from maids who
"Wow, this place is nicer than I thought," said Ishigami as they entered the cafe which was semi-crowded, "Hi table for two," said Ishigami as they were led to their table, "Ah welcome, my name is Mirika, I`ll be your waitress for today, so what`ll it be today?" said a pink-haired lady as she put down a pair of menus, "Whoa, this chick is really pretty, she might even rival Chika, hell she looks like an older version of Chika," Ishigami thought as he tried to steal some glances at Mirika much to the chagrin of Chika who had noticed, "I`ll take the omurice set then," said Ishigami, "I`ll have the pasta set then," said Chika, "All right, I`ll be back with your food in a bit," said Mirika as she strolled back into the kitchen
"Here`s your food," said Mirika as she brought their food out, "Oh that looks good," said Chika, "Hold on, let me put the finishing touches on your meal," said Mirika as she put a heart on the omurice with ketchup, "Here`s your meal master, I put my love into it," Mirika said as she made a heart gesture to which Ishigami blushed, "You seem to have a thing for that maid, why don`t you ask her for her number?" Chika asked, "Geez, she`s cute, but she`s not my type," said Ishigami as he took a bite of his omurice to which Chika pouted, "That`s what they all say, you closet perv," Chika thought as in reality, she was upset that Ishigami was seemingly simping over their waitress
"So uh, how are things between you and Miko?" Chika asked out of the blue, "Huh? Why do you ask?" Ishigami asked as he looked up, "You two are going to have to work with each other next year and I won`t be around, so I think I should understand better to help you two understand each other better" said Chika, "Things are still the same with me and her although I`ve noticed that she seems to have changed a bit, she seems to let me do what I want, hell I heard she even got into video games, can`t say I was expecting her of all people to play video games" said Ishigami, "I knew it, Miko`s going on the offensive, she gives off that innocent vibe, but she might be scheming something" Chika thought, "You okay? You`ve been acting funny all day" Ishigami asked, "Oh I`m fine, nothing to see here" Chika replied, "Yeah something`s up" Ishigami thought as he could read Chika like a book at times
"Is he your boyfriend?" Mirika asked Chika as Ishigami had gotten up to get a drink to which Chika blushed, "No, he`s not my boyfriend, he`s just a friend" Chika said in denial to which Mirika chuckled a little, "There`s no need to hide it, you seem to be jealous when he`s around other women, it`s a woman`s intuition" Mirika explained to which Chika sighed, "Okay, maybe that part is true, but the truth is we used to argue a lot with each other, I`m not sure if I`ll ever get to him, not to mention I`ve got love rivals to deal with" said Chika to which Mirika thought to herself for a moment " I have an idea, follow me" said Mirika, "What do you have in mind?" Chika asked confused
"I`m back," said Chika as she came back to which Ishigami nearly spit his drink out as he saw Chika come back wearing one of the maid outfits with Mirika, "Is this too revealing?" Chika asked frantically, "You`ll be fine, I`ll leave you two alone," said Mirika as she whispered something into Chika`s ear, "Remember, go for it," said Mirika to which she walked away
"So uh what is all of this?" Ishigami asked as he tried to regain his composure, "It was her idea, is there anything you need master?" Chika asked to which Ishigami blushed, "Master? That`s something I never thought I`d hear her say, but it feels satisfying hearing it" Ishigami thought, "Uh can you get me some napkins?" Ishigami asked," Sure, be right back master," said Chika as she strolled to which Ishigami could see the goods, "Damn for how much crap Fujiwara gives me at times, I can`t even deny, she`s got a body," Ishigami thought as even someone like him couldn`t resist the beauty of Chika
"So what`s with the maid get up?" Ishigami asked as Chika returned, "Mirika told me I should be more honest with myself, so I figured that you liked maids since I got a glimpse of your manga from a while back, I decided to dress up like one" said Chika, "Whoa, who said I like maids?" said Ishigami, "Wait what? I thought that magazine was yours, you mean to tell me I dressed up for nothing" Chika said in disbelief to which Ishigami started laughing, "I`m just kidding, you look nice in that outfit, I just wanted to get you back for teasing me yesterday" said Ishigami to which Chika pouted, "Now you`ve made me upset" said Chika, "Aw come on lighten up it was just a joke" Ishigami replied, "I`ll forgive you if you do what I want" said Chika, "All right fine, what do you want?" Ishigami asked, "I want you to give me a head pat" said Chika much to Ishigami`s surprise, "Oh uh okay," said Ishigami as he went over and patted Chika`s head, "For a moment I thought she was gonna ask for something crazy knowing her, oh well" Ishigami thought as Mirika was giving Chika a thumbs up from a distance
"Hey before you go, take this," said Mirika as she handed Ishigami a slip of paper, "Oh, what`s this for?" Ishigami asked as he took the note, "Just read it, hope to see you again and good luck" said Mirika
"Young love has a time window so don`t stall, go for it and have no regrets" read the note
"So how`d that feel?" Mirika asked Chika as she had changed back into her normal clothes, "To be honest it felt really embarrassing at first, but when he said he like it, my heart felt so flustered, "That`s great, that`s a sign that he might feel the same way. Remember, you have to go for it otherwise you`ll be wracked with regret, good luck" said Mirika as she walked away likely attending to another patron "Ishigami, you ready to go?" Chika asked Ishigami, "Yeah, let`s get going," said Ishigami as they paid and left the restaurant
"That was interesting to say the least," said Ishigami as the two walked out of the cafe, "Still why did Mirika slip that note to me?" Ishigami thought as he still pondered over the note, "I swear everywhere we go together he`s always looking at other girls, him and Miko might be getting closer than I thought" Chika thought, "You better make a move on him or he might get taken by someone else" said a flashback to which Chika stopped, "Hm? What`s wrong?" Ishigami asked as he noticed that Chika stopped, "I have to know what he thinks about me" Chika thought as she opened her mouth to speak
"Ishigami, I don`t think I just want to be friends with you," said Chika to which Ishigami turned around, "Eh?" said Ishigami stunned
