A boring chapter if I say so myself. Short at that... I'm sorry, I was having too much fun watching 3 Idiots that all of my ideas for this Chapter flew away... I'll try to do better by chapter two.. Sorry. m(_ _)m
Chapter 1
The silence only fell deeper as the time passed by, everyone's eyes locked onto the two while Yuko looked up at her friend with her hand placed on her own cheek, her eyes widened. As though she had just woken up, Haruna blinked repeatedly while looking around her with a clueless look on her face, pursing her lips into a thin line right after.
"I-... I'm sorry..." She muttered while slightly bowing her head down.
Hoping to break the heavy silence and save the two from the awkward atmosphere, Sae quickly grabbed the microphone Sayaka was holding. "A-And cut!" She exclaimed with her hand raised up in the air, the other holding the microphone close to her lips.
Their audience looked at them in silence...
"W-Well, wasn't that a good drama?" Sayaka jumped in, letting out a broken laugh "What do you think, everyone? Was it convincing?!" Grabbing the microphone from Sae, Sayaka pointed it out to the crowd, recieving a loud 'Yes!!!!' as a result.
And finally, everything continued smoothly again...
Or at least that's what the other's had hoped for.
Ever since that event, both Haruna and Yuko began avoiding each other; Haruna, mostly. There were times where Yuko tried to approach her, but everytime she does, Haruna would always find an excuse so she could walk away before she could come close, some being 'I have to use the toilet' and what not. As a result, Yuko seemed as though she had 'grown tired' of it and now, she began clinging onto Minegishi more instead of Haruna.
"It's like watching dumb and dumber..." Sayaka sighed as she sat down on an empty seat. "Three days already passed by but neither of the two wants to apologize..."
Taking one last bite of her pocky, Sae let out a sigh as well, dropping her head down in disappointment "You can say that again..." she said, "I'm curious though, why would Haruna slap her just like that? I mean, Yuko usually announces that on anyone, right? Most of all, there was never a time where Yuko never said those three words to her. So why now?"
"Should we help them apologize with each other?" Maeda joined in, quickly taking the seat right beside Sayaka. "But that would be hard though.." She added with a frown, slowly shifting her head to where both Haruna and Yuko were standing, their backs faced against each other as though they would die if they turn around.
"Well, shouldn't it be fine?" Takamina sat down on the table infront of all of them, grabbing one stick of pocky from Sae's back and quickly popping it inside her mouth. "Rather, this is interesting, isn't it? Let's see how long they can last without talking with each other at all. As far as I could remember, the two of them have always been together ever since Yuko joined the group."
Sayaka shook her head with another sigh, closing her eyes with a huge frown plastered on her face. "Well, it's not like there's anything else we can do anyway.. I mean... Even if we try to help them-..."
At that very moment, Yuko suddenly jumped in the conversation, placing her arm over Sae's shoulder with her signature cheeky grin on her face "Ohoo~? What's this? A secret meeting? Let me join in too!"
"This idiot here always acts as though nothing's wrong at all..." Sayaka finally continued, dropping her head down in disappointment.
Everybody, aside from Yuko, sighed in unison.

"I'm tired..." Itano huffed out before dropping herself down on the couch, now sitting right beside Haruna who was too busy playing with her DS to even greet her. Tired from playing too much dodgeball not long ago, Itano decided to rest her back on Haruna's arm, recieving no response at all.
Silence enveloped the two, hearing nothing but the clock's ticking.
Breaking the silence in a quiet way, Haruna began humming a song as she continued to play her game, shifting a little which made Itano's head drop down a little. Blinking repeatedly, a question popped up on her head.
"That song..." Trailing off, Itano placed her hand right under her chin, her brows furrowed down at the middle at the same time "If I remember it correctly... Yuko used to sing that alot. What was the title again..."
"Yui Yoshioka's Goodbye Days." Haruna finally talked, pressing the pause button on her DS before completely shifting her attention to their conversation. "She used to say that Yui's cute not only in appearance but her voice as well... And that she wanted to touch her because of that."
Itano mentally facepalmed at the last part, "Ah..." she sighed "Wait a minute, humming the some Yuko used to sing- Ohoo.. You miss her don't you?" A huge smirk appear
ed across her face, her head slowly shifting to the side so she could see Haruna more.
As a response, Haruna blinked with a blank look on her face, slightly tilting her head to the side as she tried to swallow Itano's words. Realizing what she meant her face slightly flushed red. "N-No, no! It just began ringing on my head. You know how songs refuse to stop playing on your head until you sing or hum it out... That's all!"
"Lying won't convince me, you know. Why did you do that anyway? In front of so many people as well... That must have been embarrassing for Yuko.." Itano shook her head.
"...My body moved on its own, you can't blame me..."
"I think her cheek was really red- Even until the concert has ended... Uwah... That must have been painful..."
"It's hard to hold your strength in once your body moves by itself." Haruna continued on defensing herself, slowly shifting her eyes away from Itano.
"I heard Yuko didn't attend the meeting with Aki-P after the event. She must have spent the rest of her time in her room crying. Somehow... I feel bad for her."
Unable to hold it in anymore, Haruna let out a loud sigh, dropping her head down in defeat. "Alright, alright. I undersand. I just have to apologize, right? Now please stop killing my conscience, Tomomi."
"Ohoo? That's not a lie now, is it? Well then, if you won't apologize within the day, I'll begin 'killing' your conscience more as a daily basis!" Itano put on an innocent smile on her face.
"...I get it already..."
With her smirk growing more, the curly haired turned her attention to the open door not far from where they were, secretly raising up her thumb. Sae slowly peered in from it afterward, giving her a thumbs up as a response.
