Days had passed since his arcade date with his sister and with the unexpected meet up with the three Kawanos, Fuutarou was currently walking home from school with his handbook in his hand. He had no work for the week as the girls were having their exams and it would be the best if all of them focused on the exams for the week. It would also be another rare break for the young man.
With his handbook in his hand, he moved to a page that had a picture of a blonde boy that had a scowl on his face. And that he unfolded the picture to reveal a girl with long red hair and a white dress doing a peace sign while having a radiant smile on her face right beside the boy. He then took a detour the small park near his home as he held his handbook tightly on his hand.
Little did he know that a certain butterfly ribboned quint was following him from behind a few meters away just enough to not get noticed by him.
'Tsk... I really don't want to apologise to that loser but they keep pushing me...' Nino thought as she continued to follow the young man until he stopped by near the lake. She then hid behind a tree near the young man to find the right timing to approach him but got distracted by the message in her phone.
Meanwhile the young man looked at the photo before folding it and putting it back inside the handbook.
Maybe I did fulfill my promise to you after all..." He said as he left the handbook there and left silently.
"Geez... I said I was already gonna apologize... Wait, where is he?" Nino looked around for the young man but he was nowhere to be seen.
She sighed and became annoyed as she didn't even get a chance to talk to him. Shewas about to leave, but saw the handbook by the river.
Nino feeling curious, went and took the handbook as she also took a peek inside. As she peeked inside the handbook, she saw the photo that he showed her back then when he left it in her room a long time ago.
"Kintarou's picture! I'll frame this in my room!Wonder why that idiot just left his handbook here... eh, he probably thought it's not important, but it is for me!" She said happily as she took the handbook and went home.
Currently, the all five of the Kawano's were sitting down inside their living room having a discussion.
"Now that our exams are over, let's talk about what me, Tsuyu and Yuki heard from Fuutarou a few days ago." Aki said as she began to tell Haruka and Rikka what the three had heard from the young man when they ate lunch last Sunday.
"Wait so Fuutarou was a tutor and the top student in their school?! He must've been really smart!" Said Haruka, amazed by the fact that Fuutarou wasn't just some ordinary guy.
"Why didn't he report that he got drugged by his student to his employer?"
"He said it would've been troublesome. And that job was really important to him. He didn't tell us why though.
"Fuutarou was really kind though... He treated us to lunch that weekend..." Said Yuki as she blushed, remembering him calling her and her sisters cute.
"Wait, why are you blushing? And what do you mean you had lunch with Fuutarou?" Rikka said that had a hint of jealousy in her tone as she looked at Tsuyu and Aki while they try to avoid eye contact.
"You had lunch with Fuutarou? Mouuu I wanted to have lunch with him too..." Haruka said as she pouted on the fact she wasn't available that day.
"Oh? Haruka why are you pouting? This is a new sight to see as you usually don't mind these small things unless... You have a crush on Fuutarou~" Aki teased her sister making her blush as she buried her face on a pillow.
"But you and Tsuyu blushed when he flirted with us..." Yuki reminded her sisters as their faces immediately turned crimson as they remembered that moment.
"Looks like four of us like the same guy~" Rikka continued to tease them until Aki countered her.
"You like him too! Don't try to deny it. I saw you try to make advances on him whenever I visit the convenience store!"
"Ara? Who has a crush?" A voice rang out from the entrance of their home.
All five of the blondes turned towards where the voice came from to reveal an older women with blonde hair and green eyes who looks to be in her late 30s entering the room.
"Mama?!" The five girls said in unison as they saw their mother smiling from ear to ear as she walked towards the girls.
"Yes, it's me~ So who has a crush?" She asked again, but this time she was sitting down in front of her daughters with a teasing smile on her face.
"I'm home!" Nino chirped happily as she entered her home, still happy from getting the picture of 'Kintarou', she ran up the stairs and into her room to look for a frame.
"I don't need this anymore." She said as she tossed the handbook in the trashcan. As she finally found a frame for the picture, she noticed that the picture was folded. Being curious, she unfolded the picture. Her eyes widened as she saw what was on the other half. It was her sister doing a peace sign next to 'Kintarou'.
"Wait, why is Yotsuba in the picture? " She asked herself as she looked at the photo again. Why was she in the picture? Does her sister know him?
She exited her room and went to the room of the bunny ribboned girl which was just after Miku's room.
"Yotsuba, can I come in?" She asked receiving a 'yes' from her sister before she opened the door and entered her room.
"What do you need Ni-" she stopped talking as she saw the photo that her sister was holding in her hand.
"Yotsuba, why are you in this picture with Kintarou? Did y-" she stopped talking as she saw a dark aura forming around her. To her, Yotsuba's ribbons immediately turned pitch black and her eyes glowed in yellow. Her brows furrowed as she not so much hide the glare she gave to her.
"Nino." The cheerfulness in her voice was gone. It was replaced with something more commanding. She flinched as she heard her name from her sister who, for the first time, she felt inferior to.
"Why do you have that photo?"
A/N: Another early chapter~ Finished my stuff early the day after I last updated and had nothing to do. So tried to update it again. Anyways, one of the Kawano parents is now here! Including Nino now having a picture of her 'Kintarou', she also poked something she shouldn't have. What will happen next you might ask? Then stay tuned till the next chapter! Have a great day/night! Farewell minna~
