Inside the ga center, Sakurai Saki pressed the claw button on the claw machine.
Amidst the sound effects, the claw slowly descended and caught the leg of a Shiba Inu plush toy.
Fujiwara Chika stood next to him, her hands pressed against the glass, eyes full of anticipation.
(∩✪▽✪∩)♡
Rather than saying she was hoping to get the plush toy, it was more accurate to say she was hoping to receive a gift from Sakurai Saki.
"Clank~"
The prize dropped.
"Here you go." Sakurai Saki bent down and handed her the toy.
She really liked dogs.
Chika was a dog person, and she had a dog at ho nad Pes. Hayasaka Ai was also a dog person. Sakurai Saki had once talked to her about this topic—whether she liked dogs or cats more.
In truth, these kinds of topics didn't an much; most girls liked both. As long as it had soft fur, girls wouldn't miss the chance to pet it.
"Thank you." Chika said happily.
Chika: ( ˊᵕˋ )♡.°⑅
"It's nothing, no need to thank ." Sakurai Saki glanced around again.
It seed that for a while now, a strong gaze had been approaching him.
...
"Nino, what's wrong?"
"Nothing, just saw soone I know." Nakano Nino replied to her friend.
Why is Sakurai-san at the ga center with Fujiwara-san? Are they on a date?
Nino was curious, but she didn't keep watching. Even if they were really dating, she had no reason to interfere.
"Huh? Who's the handso guy? Tell ! You were staring just now."
"Sakurai-san, he's really handso, right?" Nino replied honestly.
"Oh, so it's General Affairs Sakurai, huh? He's super popular at school. But he's already been pre-booked by Chika-chan and Hayasaka-san." Hayami Sachi said thoughtfully.
"Pre-booked?"
"Don't you think they look good together? That kind of atmosphere is hard to get in between." Hayami Sachi noticed Nakano Nino's expression looked a little disappointed.
She guessed: "Nino, don't tell you've also got a crush on General Affairs Sakurai?"
(˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)
"I kind of like him."
(,,¬﹏¬,,)
"He might already be dating Chika-chan." Hayami Sachi showed her true nature.
(≖⩊≖)
It was a love triangle hyped up by the dia club, and even after more than half a year, the buzz hadn't died down.
"..." Nino's steps halted for a mont.
"Sakurai-san is currently tutoring us sisters."
Discouraged by her friend's advice to give up, Nino felt a bit down.
She said that to encourage herself—so long as she still had the chance to interact with him, there was still hope.
"It's just a teacher-student relationship, right?" Hayami Sachi continued, "General Affairs Sakurai is gentle to everyone, but he knows how to keep his distance. If you try to force your way closer, he'll hate it."
"Aren't we friends? Why do you always say such depressing things?"
"Alright, alright, I'll cheer you on! Fighting! Nino-chan!" Hayami Sachi said with a smile.
Nakano Nino felt she was being too half-hearted.
"Whatever, let's go eat sothing."
She was sure her chance would co!
She will win!
...
"Saki-kun~ Hurry, lower your head." Chika and Sakurai Saki were inside a sticker photo booth.
She had insisted on taking pictures, and Sakurai Saki couldn't refuse.
Looking at the pink flower effects on the screen, Sakurai Saki glared a little.
These weird effects—were they what high school girls liked nowadays? He couldn't understand what was cute about them.
Sakurai Saki leaned his face in next to hers.
At first, Chika had intended to just take a normal photo, but when she saw Sakurai Saki's face, she ca up with another idea.
"Saki-kun, have you ever taken this kind of photo with her?"
"...No." Sakurai Saki knew exactly who she was referring to.
Sakurai Saki and Hayasaka Ai had only been dating for half a month, and they had only gone out once. Before they started dating, they had never gone to a ga center.
"No one's watching here~" Chika-chan said with hidden aning.
Chika: ( ๑‾̀◡‾́)
She wanted to give Sakurai Saki a mory he would never forget.
"Saki-kun, close your eyes."
Sakurai Saki obediently followed.
The next second, Chika pressed the photo button and reached out to wrap her arms around his neck—their lips touched.
A sweet taste, the distinct fragrance of a young girl, and the intense love she held for him—all of it flooded Sakurai Saki's senses.
"Clack."
The two embraced intimately, and Sakurai Saki also wrapped his arms around her waist.
A few seconds later, Chika slowly opened her eyes—because Sakurai Saki suddenly pulled back.
"What's wrong?" Chika asked, breathing heavily.
"Stick out your tongue." Sakurai Saki lifted her chin with his hand.
"...Mmh~"
Chika's face turned red. Like a little puppy, she stuck out her small pink tongue.
"Good girl~" Sakurai Saki lowered his head and once again took her small tongue into his mouth, kissing it.
...
Chika's face flushed bright red, and she gently pushed him away.
"Th-That's enough!"
(∩๑﹏๑∩)♡
Chika held her chest and leaned into the corner.
Today's kiss… it was strange! Completely different from last ti!
…Though it was still kind of pleasant.
Sakurai Saki reached out and pulled her back into his arms.
"Chika-chan~ you were the one who asked first, rember? But I'm still not satisfied."
"It's our first ti taking sticker photos, we have to make a mory out of it, right?" Sakurai Saki spoke gently, his tone sounding like he was just having a calm discussion.
His words made it seem like it was perfectly fine for her to refuse.
But Sakurai Saki's eyes looked a little pitiful, like a puppy abandoned by its owner.
Chika's expression showed hesitation.
"But…"
But asking her to act like a puppy—wasn't that kind of weird?
"No way~"
"Chika master, please, woof~" Sakurai Saki pleaded.
A few seconds later, Chika couldn't resist his gaze——
"You're really impossible." Chika said softly.
Once again, like a little puppy, she stuck out her cute pink tongue.
Sakurai Saki gave a wicked grin: "Too cute~"
And that's when Chika realized——
"Stop… mm~"
Sakurai Saki didn't give her a chance to breathe. With a sly smile, he kissed her again.
...
A few minutes later.
Chika held the printed sticker sheet, her face red all the way to her ears. If soone else saw these photos, she'd be finished.
Chika: ( //>////////
