A little earlier in the toilet,
Momo stared at her reflection in the mirror. She was truly mad. Not at Kuroha, she wasn't the kind of stupid tsundere who would hit the guy they love because they feel jealous. How could such actions even make your crush see you in another light? The more tsun you act the more you'll be nothing more than the violent tomboy in his mind. After all, how could a rational boy fall in love with a girl who only hit him for stupid reasons?
No, she was angry at her own reaction. She simply couldn't accept that while she was torturing her mind, two more girls ca out of nowhere and beca her obstacles.
lissa and Nejire. Those two were very beautiful. What's more, Nejire seed to be slightly interested in Kuroha. She put a little bit of water on her face,
"*Sigh* Momo what are you doing?"
Just as she continued to mope;
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
Soone knocked on the door. This was followed by a voice she easily recognized
"Momo, open the door. I have an idea."
She didn't lock the door. After all, it was a public shop. But she understood that it was a form of courtesy.
"You can enter."
The door slowly opened and Himiko with a concerned face entered.
"How are you? Alright, I hope."
Himiko was worried about her? This thought was so bewildering that she couldn't answer properly for a while. By the ti she recovered her spirit, Himiko was just in front of her.
(Since when? )
She was sure that she didn't blank out. How could she cover such a distance in such a little ti? Her quirk had nothing to do with physical enhancent. Still, this allowed her to gather her spirit. She took a step back before answering.
"I'm alright. What do you want to talk about?"
While she backed off, she couldn't see the calculating light flash in Himiko's eyes. By the ti she asked her questions all, she could see was Himiko letting out a sigh of relief before answering with a kind smile.
"I was just worried about you. It seed like you didn't feel well."
Momo could feel goosebumps through her whole body. Still, despite her current sadness, she wasn't so naive stupid girl. When sothing is too beautiful to be true, generally it ans that it wasn't true. But, she didn't want to reject goodwill even if it seed fake without enough proof. As such, she played the ga.
She put her hand lightly on her chest and said before letting out a smile of her own. It was a smile filled with kindness and elegance.
"As I said, I am quite alright. I apologize for having worried you."
Momo was a good actress. But in the face of Himiko's overwhelming talent as an actress, she was nothing more than a fumbling child trying to act like an adult. Himiko easily saw through her facade, but she didn't mind. Rather, she would have been a little disappointed if Momo was so easily coaxed into believing her. Her plan was a long term one, and it began now. She took Momo's hand and put it on her own.
"I know you're hurting, I understand your pain. You might not trust , but I really see you as soone important. You're my life long rival after all."
A cheeky grin ford in her face as she said this. Momo would never believe her if she said that she saw her as a friend. But with her competitive nature, calling her a rival should stroke her ego in the good sense and lower her defense little.
Now in order to launch another attack, she let go of Momo, and did a little turn, giving her back to Momo,
"I told you that I have an idea, right? It's about Kuroha"
She needed to pick her interest,
"W-what kind of idea?"
(Bingo!)
She erased the grin that nearly ford and turned once again to face Momo with a serious face.
"What about an alliance?"
"...An alliance?"
"Yep! An alliance. You see, the two of us fought for so many years in order to get Kuroha. I could accept it if you won, but I would really be angry if soone ca out of nowhere and stole him from us. What about you?"
Now she needed to give her a sense of belonging. Even the greatest enemies could ally themselves in order to face an exterior threat. Of course, in the end, they would all beco allies. But one at ti.
As expected, Momo becos a little riled up at the ntion of losing Kuroha.
"What will this alliance do exactly?"
"Simple. We aren't so shrew. So obviously fighting directly against them wouldn't do. Also, kuroha wouldn't like it. But we can do different things. Of course, it's just an idea I got on the fly. We could et later and discuss in order to hamr the details"
She lied, she had a very detailed plan. But she wouldn't tell everything now. People didn't like feeling like all their moves were already calculated. It was necessary to give Momo an illusion of control.
"I see. Ok. I'm in."
A large smile ford on her face as she hugged Momo.
"I'm so happy."
(Yes, I'm happy that you're so naive. It will be fun to destroy your defense one by one and make you feel like we are friends.)
(I don't know what she is trying to do, but if it can make beco closer to Kuroha, I will just play along.)
(Fufufu!!)
(Fufufu!!)
If Momo and Himiko could see each other right now, they would see a devious smile on their face. But, once they stopped hugging each other, this devious smile, directly beca a friendly one.
"Now, Momo, let's go back before kuroha worries too much."
This is how a weird relationship ford between two girls. Who would have the last laugh? Even the author *cough* I an even the gods didn't know.
----
After Momo and Himiko ca back, the discussion beca more lively, with Himiko and Nejire doing different jokes and Momo and lissa elegantly smiled and adding a word from ti to ti.
Anyone who saw this scene would think that it was just a group of very good friends laughing and playing together.
This lasted for two hours before lissa and Nejire had to get up and go ho. After all, as third years, their schedule was really packed. Since the two of them had to go, Kuroha decided to pay the bill for everyone. He was basically the poorest of the five, but he still knew that it was the man who should pay on a date. Even if the said date was with four girls rather than one.
They added each other to their contact list before parting in front of the cafe as four cars ca and took Momo, lissa, Nejire, and Himiko.
"Bye-bye!"
"Say hello to Uncle Might for ."
"Let's see each other tomorrow."
"Ciao!, We need to et during the weekend."
The passerby stopped as they watched the scene of four girls from obviously rich families saying goodbye to one boy. The sa thought was present in their heads.
(This guy must be a gigolo!!!)
