Aspiring to be a girl in a band

Seeing the smug smile on Ryuna's face, Arakawa Kirika rubbed Ryuna's cheeks again in annoyance.

I have no idea what this cat is so smug about.

"How have you been lately?"

While chatting idly, Arakawa Kirika also kept her gaze fixed on Ryuna's neck.

Seeing that Rana was wearing the "gift" she had given her properly, Arakawa Kirika's mood improved considerably, and she was happy to give the cat more patience.

"Um……"

Lena pouted, looking somewhat troubled.

"Practice is fun."

After a long silence, Lena finally uttered this sentence.

"Is that so?"

When Arakawa Kirika heard Rakuna mention her band, she inevitably thought of a certain pink-haired girl who annoyed her a bit, and her expression immediately turned sour.

"Mist Flower...Are you unhappy?"

Seeing that Arakawa Kirika's answer had become somewhat perfunctory, Rakuna immediately raised her head.

Arakawa Kirika's face was reflected in Rakuna's eyes; it was an expression Rakuna had never seen before.

"No, let's talk about something else."

Ok……

Lena narrowed her eyes.

Mist Flower... seems less assertive than before?

This is her new discovery tonight.

But since Arakawa Kirika didn't want to continue the topic, Rakuna had no choice but to rethink it.

How can I make Wuhua happy?

If it were just me, I'd be happy as long as I had a matcha parfait.

"Matcha...buffet..."

Lena muttered to herself, then rummaged in her pockets for a while.

She pulled out a few banknotes and a few coins.

After a quick calculation, Lena smiled happily.

Because that money is enough to buy two cups of matcha parfait.

So she grabbed Arakawa Kirika's sleeve.

"Matcha parfait... I'll treat you to Mizuka."

Lena looked at the other person with a hint of expectation.

She felt happy whenever she could eat matcha parfait, so she naturally assumed that matcha parfait was a universal remedy that could be applied to everyone else.

In this way, Wuhua can also be happy.

Lena's thoughts were that simple.

Volume 1: Chapter 146 Flower Pulling and Tug

Arakawa Kirika knew what the cat was thinking.

So she hugged Lena tighter.

This straightforward, somewhat naive kindness made Arakawa Kirika feel as if a strange warm current flowed into her heart.

This is something only a cat could do.

For anyone else, just thinking about their identity and the surname they bear would be enough to trigger a reaction.

It's impossible for someone to do something so stupid as to treat themselves to food.

"Don't you even look at the time?"

Arakawa Kirika glanced to the side, feigning indifference.

But her reminder was indeed effective.

Lena then realized... it was so late, there was nowhere to buy matcha parfait.

Lena lowered her head somewhat dejectedly.

"What a pity."

Lena's tone became much more subdued.

“I’m always happy when Riki treats me to a matcha parfait. I wish Kirika could be happy too.”

That's quite unusual.

It is undoubtedly a rare thing to hear Lena speak in complete, long sentences.

But... what Arakawa Kirika was more concerned about was clearly a certain word in that long sentence.

"rikki?"

It sounds like a name, but... Arakawa Kirika has absolutely no recollection of anyone named Rikki in that band.

"Um...rikki...that's Riki."

Lena turned around and the two of them sat facing each other with their arms around each other.

As she explained, Rakuna buried her head in Arakawa Kirika's chest, so that both of them could clearly feel each other's presence.

"I see," Arakawa Kirika thought to herself with a cold snort after hearing Ryuna's explanation.

Because... it's obvious which idiot came up with this tasteless naming style.

Tsk.

Arakawa Kirika was a little annoyed.

What a beautiful moment.

The cool moonlight, the utterly silent surroundings, the absence of anything but a gentle breeze, and the presence of a charming little cutie in my arms.

Why did I even think of that spoilsport?

Just a mere sound of love.

Can you please get out of my mind quickly?

Seeing Arakawa Kirika's somewhat subtle expression, Rakuna immediately showed her displeasure.

Because her intuition told her that at this very moment, Arakawa Kirika seemed to be thinking about someone else.

It was clearly my own time.

He was clearly with himself.

"Mist Flower... Damn it."

Lena muttered this sentence with dissatisfaction.

This amused Arakawa Kirika.

The most common criticisms she received throughout her life were probably "inhuman" and "scum".

It was precisely these very mild "bad" comments that piqued her interest.

Hmm... since this little kitten says she's bad, then I guess I'll just have to indulge her and be even worse?

Arakawa Kirika, with a mischievous grin, gradually tightened her grip.

The arms that were wrapped around Ryuna were like two ropes. As Arakawa Kirika tightened them, Ryuna began to feel...more and more uncomfortable.

"Um……"

Lena let out a few soft groans, as the uncomfortable feeling was about to turn into the more explicit "pain".

"Mist Flower is angry."

Although it was stated in a declarative tone, judging from Lena's expression, she was clearly asking a question.

"Yes, I'm angry."

This time, Arakawa Kirika answered quite decisively.

"Why……"

Lena lowered her eyes and pressed on, as if she was thinking about which of her words she had said wrong.

"Of course it's because..."

Arakawa Kirika's eyes widened, the red light in her pupils like that of someone who had caught a fresh prey.

“It makes me very sad that my pets have gone and been fed by someone else.”

Arakawa Kirika spoke with a smile, showing absolutely no sign of sadness.

Lena suddenly felt wronged and stared at Arakawa Kirika with a very mournful look, which made Arakawa Kirika's arrogant attitude suddenly soften for some reason.

Ok……

Ok.

Arakawa Kirika knew perfectly well why Ryuna had that expression.

She also reflected on it for a while.

It was clearly my fault for neglecting Lena... From any perspective, my accusations just now are completely unfounded.

Lena's pitiful eyes were like a silent rebuttal.

[It's clearly your fault as the pet owner for not taking care of your pet; how can you blame the pet for seeking food elsewhere?]

After reflecting on herself for two seconds, Arakawa Kirika gradually released Ryuna.

"Hmm... I'm 1% at fault, but Lena is 99%. Is that okay?"

Arakawa Kirika spoke a little nervously, because it was the first time she had ever tried... to admit her mistake.
