Chapter 4 The melodious chirping of birds hopping on the window sill roused Sayumi as she waited for her vision to sharpen subsequent to opening her eyes. Stretching out lazily to loosen her tense muscles, she rolled over to lie flat on her stomach. The display of rainbow hues sprayed across the length of her room by the rotating sun catcher dangling at the balcony made Sayumi’s spirits soar.
“Isn’t it a beautiful day?”
Not getting a reply from the person who shared her queen-sized bed the previous night, the nineteen year old turned her head to the side only to be met with the scene of rumpled sheets strewn across the empty spot.
She left without saying goodbye. Pouting slightly, Sayumi pushed herself off the comfy mattress with the intention of proceeding outside. When she reached her closed bedroom door, she noticed a small yellow post-it note stuck somewhere in the region not far from her eye level.
Baka, I didn’t leave without saying goodbye. Tearing down the piece of stiff paper, she swung open the door to enter the spacious living room. A ceramic bowl was placed right in the middle of the wooden table in the adjoining dining hall. Upon closer inspection, Sayumi saw yet another golden sheet attached to the plate balanced carefully on top of the bowl. Flipping over the cover, a steaming bowl of scallop congee sprinkled with parsley bits was revealed.
Some congee would aid in your recuperation. I used dishwasher safe dishes just in case you ended up breaking more glassware >.<
I’ve informed the company that you’ll be taking today off to rest. Don’t dwell too much on things and take good care of yourself.
Bye bye,
Gaki-san Reading the simple note over and over, a small smile crept onto Sayumi’s face. Sitting herself down on the dining chair which she had dragged out amid ear-piercing screeching, she spooned a dollop of lip smacking congee into her mouth and swallowed it satisfyingly. Every now and then, it felt good to be pampered. When was the last time someone babied her like this? That sensation seemed foreign as whenever she was around fellow Rokkies member Kamei Eri, the one on the receiving end of being indulged had always been Eri.

Keeping Ai and Eri’s relationship a secret was becoming a thorny matter as the two openly displayed their affection for each other. Apparently the hand holding and tickling in private was no longer enough and soon the pair went on to take over the sole washroom on the entire level with their highly tantric activities.
“Not again.”
Reina’s complain wasn’t uncalled for as the common bathroom was once again locked from the inside. Rapid breathing and other
debatable sounds could be heard through the thin door which made the young kitty cat very annoyed.
Behind her, Aika remained silent as she shook quietly in her shoes at feeling Reina’s bubbling rage. A ticked off Tanaka-san wasn’t one to be trifled with. As she had so unfortunately realized once while out on a movie date with the senpai.
“Wah…I never knew Kamei-san could be so… ”
Koharu’s high pitched mumble didn’t fail to escape the ears of those standing in the messy line. The assemble comprising of Reina, Koharu, Aika and the two pandas had been waiting outside for a substantial amount of time.
“Can I still be the turtle beside Kamei-san’s pond?”
Uttering her thoughts aloud somewhat forlornly, Jun Jun said to no one in particular. Standing behind her, Lin Lin nudged the elder discreetly. This wasn’t the time to be open about her colossal adoration towards Eri.
“OI AI-CHAN! ERI! Other people need to use the damn bathroom too!”

Veering into the dressing room on the fourth floor with sharp cornering skills, Risa panted wearily from the effort she had exhausted while running from the ground floor. The elevator had taken an unusually long time to travel down from the topmost floor and she had given up on waiting since she didn’t have the luxury of time on her side. Having to make a trip home first after leaving Sayumi’s house to shower and grab the items she needed for today’s dance rehearsal, she barely had enough time to arrive at the company without being terribly late. Eri gets off the hook easily enough just by flashing an adorable grin, however Risa didn’t receive the same treatment as she had the image of a reliable and responsible sub-leader to uphold.
Expecting to be the only one in the room as it was almost time for dance practice, the young lady froze in her tracks underneath the wooden doorway when she caught a glimpse of two of her team mates who were inside. Ai and Eri were sharing one chair, or rather, Eri was sitting on Ai, who was in the chair. It was clear from Risa’s position at the entrance of the room that Ai was kissing Eri’s neck as the younger played with the fingers of the hands wrapped around her waist. Moaning contentedly each time Ai’s lips touched a sensitive spot, Eri stretched her hand backwards to try and reach Ai’s neck. The action caused Eri to tremble with significant force as she twisted her body on Ai’s lap.
Is Kame grinding?!??! Gawking with her mouth hanging fully open, Risa’s brain suffered a mental breakdown at the illicit imagery played out right in front of her eyes. The “free show” for lack of a better term was abruptly ceased when Eri through half lidded eyes caught sight of Risa’s reflection in the mirror. Rapidly sliding off Ai’s lap with a self-conscious expression on her face, Eri acknowledged Risa’s presence.
“Gaki-san.”
“Ka-me….”
The awkward atmosphere was further escalated when Ai got up from the chair and approached Risa all the while not letting go of Eri’s hand which she had caught sometime during the course of the making out session. Precisely when, Risa didn’t know, and she wasn’t sure she really wanted to know.
“Ah Gaki-san, just the person I was looking for.”
Exchanging a glance with Eri whose cheeks were at present redder than the ripest tomatoes, Ai broached the topic which she had been pondering since morning.
“We have always been sharing a room on the concert tours. I was thinking it might be a nice change to swap rooms this time.”
“You want to room with Kame?”
Nodding back, Ai confirmed the answer to that question while Eri kept her eyes on the ground and shuffled her feet.
“We should get out of each other’s face for a bit you know. We don’t want nerves tested since we’re leader and sub-leader now.”
Just say you wanna suck face with Kame! The unexpected angry thought that flashed across her mind shocked Risa. Guilt and shame engulfed her entire being as she mentally reprimanded herself for having such inappropriate views of her close friends.
You’re such a sore loser Niigaki Risa! Though there was never a competition in the first place. On all accounts, Ai had never once considered Risa as anything more than a good friend.
