From betrotheds to lovers

Chapter 24

"Sacchan! You're too cute!"

"..." *munch munch*

Kohaku was hugging and snuggling Sakurako after seeing her blush from being hugged by Ichiro, Sakurako, on the other hand, wasn't bothered by Kohaku doing that, but her cheeks were still tinged in a pink color due to Ichiro's hug as she also ate the cookies he had given to her

"... So where will we be going now, Kohaku?"

Himri who was unable to endure watching Kohaku being clingy to Sakurako, asked that as she pulled Kohaku away from Sakurako

"How about we go to the shopping mall? I'm sure we'll find something to buy there!"

"Well... I don't dislike going shopping from time to time, so that's fine by me"

"... ... ... A tsuntsun Himari-chan is not bad either!"

"H-Hey! Stop it!"

Kohaku after seeing Himari acting like a tsundere, began hugging and snuggling her, Himari showed an annoyed and embarrassed face, but she didn't appear to hate it either

"... !" *Looking at the empty plastic bag*

As for Sakurako, after seeing that she had eaten all of the cookies, she decided to take a nap, so she picked up her scarf and unfolded it, revealing that it was wide enough to act as a blanket, which she started using as one as she began taking a nap

Some time later

"Fuaaa..."

Sakurako was yawning, while she had her scarf around her arms looking more like a cape,  as she felt that she could sleep a bit more while she followed diagonally to the left and behind Himari, as she lead the way, Kohaku was also following Himari

"Alright, you two. Let's set a few rules, first of all, we'll stay together and not wander away on our own..."

"!"

Then as Himari was explaining the rules, Sakurako wandered in the direction of a place that caught her interest

"Second, if we stop to see something, we'll warn the others so that we won't continue walking..."

"!"

Then Kohaku who saw a bunch of puppies at the window of a pet store stopped walking and went to see the puppies, leaving Himari walking by herself

"And third... ... ... *Turns around* Don't go doing your own things as I speak!"

Himari who had noticed a lack of voices coming from behind her stopped talking for a moment and turned 180º to see where Sakurako and Kohaku went, and she immediately spotted the two. Sakurako was ordering a fried snack,, while Kohaku was pressing her face against the pet store window, seeing the two immediately do the very things that she had said for them not to do, made Himari angry which caused her to shout

A few moments later

"..."

"... *Munch munch*"

"Aaaaaahh..."

Himari was now dragging the two by the collar, Kohaku was sad about being separated from the pet store window, while Sakurako was eating the snack she had ordered with her usual blank face

"... *Munch munch swallow* Fuuh... Where are you taking us to, Himari-chan?"

"To a clothes store"

"Ah! I see you want to get new clothes for a new party so that you can increase your chances of getting a boyfriend there!"
