Aki calls Rin the next day

Aki - Rin 🤧 please help me

Rin - Okay !! Stop crying first

Aki - Take has someone he likes 🤧

Rin - ( murmuring to herself) what am i gonna do with this girl.

Rin - And? Are you gonna give up on him?

Aki - i think i will 😔

' at this point this girl isn't even denying the fact that she likes him ' Rin thought to herself.

Rin - are you sure ? Don't you think that the girl he likes could be you ?

Aki - There's no way, only happens on fairy tales , also the girl he was explaining about is beautiful as per him😔. 

Rin - Aki if you won't try then how would you know? Also as you saw many girls are trying to get together with him , I would suggest you to hurry up, giving up ain't an option, i will not listen to your depressed talks everyday to destroy my evening 🙂.

Aki - what do i do then ?

Rin - confess to him, that you like him.

What could go wrong, if he accepts then you'll be happy but if he rejects then what even there is to lose , he'll still be friends with you .

Aki - What are you saying, it's too soon to confess 😵‍💫.

Rin - fine then he'll be happy with someone else

Aki - okayy , I'll do it .... But when?

Rin - After the exams , the school festival will be starting , confess him in front of everyone on the last day.

Aki - what the .... In front of everyone?? Are you crazy? What if he rejects me , i won't be able to go to classes due to embarrassment .

Rin - Then find a place , how about in the class after everyone is down dancing.

Aki - alright, this is a decision i made 

"I Aki Ayase , am going to confess to the guy i like on the last day of school festival" Aki said that standing, her legs were shaking in fear.

Aki - Ahhhh, i can't do it

Rin - you do it or i tell him myself 🤬

Aki - okay okay.

Rin - okay then bye, good night .

   On the last exam day after the test finished 

Rika sensei - Alright class be seated . As you all know the school festival is coming , i hope y'all are excited, class reps along with students in this class, discuss what y'all want to do , class reps report to me after the discussion. Alright I'll be going then.

 "So guys! Let your suggestions out, the idea with the most votes is what we will be doing" the Reps said.

 The idea With the most votes was "maid cafe"

The boys were jumping with excitement . The preparation for the festival started the next day.

Everyone was busy , doing their own work assigned to them

"Haah , i can't Wait to see the girls in the maid uniform" one of the boys in the class said 

Another girl - what do you mean , you boys are also going to wear costumes.

Boy - what? What are we gonna wear?

Girl - well , if girls are maids then boys are ?

Boy - let me guess , Butler 

Girl - yes , so get ready 

  The boys, hearing that were saddened 

Girl - c'mon, all you guys expect us girls to work alone?

Boy - okay fine , We'll cosplay as Butler.

  Once again everyone started to continue their work.

'ahh , i will be able to see Take cosplay as a Butler ' Aki thought while picturing Take in a Butler Outfit .

Rin - Aki , your thoughts are flowing out

Aki comes back to her senses 

Rin - so ? Are you ready ?

Aki - I don't know 

Rin - look there 

Rin points to where Take is being asked by some girls if he would cosplay 

"Koizumi kun , will you also cosplay at the shop?" The girls were asking 

Take - i don't think so, besides I won't look good in it 😅

Saku - c'mon, do you think you would look bad in that outfit , besides i think someone really wants to see you cosplay (Saku says this as he indicates Take towards Aki)

Aki gave Take the "i also kinda want to see you cosplay" look.

Take realised and said "Fine I'll do it"

Rin - see , if you don't have the courage then say bye to dating him (Rin said to Aki)

Aki - okay 😤

    Soon the Day came , the first day of the festival.

Aki was with Rin , when they were entering their class they saw a big line in front of their class , though the festival just started in the morning their class was full of customers , many were waiting in line , most of them were girls.

Rin - what's happening , i am going first 

Aki - wait for me 

Rin hurried towards the class 

Rin - hey hey, Aki hurry , c'mon you must see this.

Aki , confused headed to the class

Take - ah , good morning Aki san

Aki was mesmerized by the way Take looked in his cosplay costume.

'arggghhhhh , he looks so cutee and handsome at the same time' came to Aki's mind.

Rin - C'mon go, (Rin pushed Aki towards Take) compliment him .

Aki approached Take "Good morning , you are looking very good in that outfit" Aki said while blushing.

Take - hm , thank you 😊

Saku - i hate to ruin your flirting moments but we would like some help in the background.

Rin - I'll join , let me change first

Both Aki and Rin started their work , Aki helped in the kitchen while Rin cosplayed and served the customers.

Soon it was noon 

Saku - okay guys it's time for handovers , the afternoon shift please replace positions. The one's working from morning please take some rest.

Rin - wow , that was a lot of work . Now we can finally enjoy ourselves .

Take - i am thirsty, i am going for a cold drink, Saku wanna come?

Saku - let's go , I'll also have a drink

  They both went and had something to cool their heads . 

  Both sitting on a bench while drinking 

Take - Saku 

Saku - um?

Take - I'm thinking about Confessing to Aki

Saku - yea 😌 

   At first Saku wasn't listening but then he realised what he heard

Saku - WHATT??? , you are really going to? When did you get the courage??

Take - it's just.. , i just.. , I want to spend my time with her , not just in school or class but also in the evening, during holidays , i want to travel with her. I want to support her . But , i don't think i am perfect for her still when i see her talking with other guys , i feel jealous, not that we are dating but .

Saku - my bro is very possessive huh 😏 , but then again , what will you do if she rejects you?

Take - 😶 ..........oh dang , i forgot about that possibility , actually the probability of rejection is 99%.

Saku - well then we have to trust that 1%.

Take - oh , by the way what about you? How did you confess to kurokawa san?

Saku - ah , about that 😅 , She's the one that did it . She came directly to me and asked if i was available to date , and yeah that's how it started.

Take - you have it so easy .

Saku - Shall we go now ? 

  They both finished their drinks

Saku - oh yea , can you hold our class's ad board and roam around the school 

Take - okay fine , I'll also check other classes out hehe

Saku - okay then 

  They both headed back to their class where Saku handed Take the class's ad board.

 Take carrying the board started to roam around the school, there were classes doing horror house , skits , puzzle games , photo booths, etc .

  "Hey excuse me , what class are you from ? Are you free , let's go and have some fun" some girls from outside started to ask Take out to join them. 

Take - i am sorry , but i have work to do .

Girl from outside - heh , what's the hurry , c'mon, it will be our treat.

"I am sorry but i need him" a voice came from behind, it was Aki .

Aki - I need him, we have some business to attend to . C'mon let's go 

Aki grabbed Take's hand and pulled him to safety.

 Take - Thank you so much for saving me.

Aki - no need to thank me , you once saved me from those goons so now we're even, but still you have to stop being kind to everyone, otherwise you won't be able to say no .

Take - he he , that's one thing i am working on 😅

Aki - so ? 

Take - ?? 🤨

Aki - were you going to join them ?

Take - ofc not , i am too tired to go around classes to enjoy the fest, tomorrow i will enjoy it. 

Take - Aki san ... If you are free tomorrow then will you join me to explore the festival?

Aki - Yes 😄

As they were talking, a voice came from behind 

"Onee chan" it was Sayu , she came with Miss Ayase (Aki's mom), 

Aki - Sayu , Mom , what are you Both doing here?

Miss Ayase - we came to visit you , did we interrupt something .

Aki - no 

Miss Ayase - Also i had to say "thank you" to Koizumi kun for helping you that day.

Take - ah , it's nothing, it's my duty to help a friend in need. 

  Just then Take was called by someone, it was aunt Sawako , she also came to see how Take was doing.

Take - Ah , Aunty you are here

Sawako - here , you forgot your lunch 

Take - hehe , thanks 😁🙏 , oh by the way meet Aki san , her sister Sayu and her mom Ms Ayase.

 Take introduces them.

Sawako - Ara , you must be the girl who stayed that day at our house . Take told me everything that happened, i hope you didn't find any lack of hospitality that day.

Aki - no no, thanks for your kindness that day.

Miss Ayase - yes , thanks for keeping my daughter safe.

Sawako - it sounds like some married couple situations he he 

Take - AUNTYY!! (Take was red )

 Both aunt sawako and Miss Ayase were laughing 

Sayu - mom , i want to roam around 

Miss Ayase - is that so? Aki go take Sayu to your class , show her around.

Sawako - you also go Take , join them

Take - okay.

  All three went to their class while Aunt Sawako and Miss Ayase were chatting.

  

   In the class

"Woww , she's so cute"

"She just looks like Ayase san"

"What class are you from? "

Everyone in the class started questioning Sayu.

Sayu hid behind Take 

Aki - okay guys chill out, she's scared, y'all are bombing her with too many questions .

Rin interrupted "alright that's enough for now, we have customers to attend to guys"

Everyone returned to work.

Rin - Aki , let's go, we also have to lend a hand in the kitchen.

Aki - yeah , Sayu ! What are you gonna do? Wanna join us or go to mommy?

Sayu - kitchen!!

Aki - okay , but you have to sit and watch , no helping .

Sayu - but i want to help !

Aki - no! You are gonna hurt yourself 

They went to the kitchen where Aki seated Sayu in a chair and started working.

Aki - Sit there and don't move 

Rin - c'mon, don't be so hard on her just because you are troubled .

Aki - i am not being hard on her 

Rin - hey Sayu chan , how would you feel if your sister marries Take ?

"Oi Rin , what are you asking a little girl" Aki shouted at Rin 

Rin - what? I was just asking a question so she wouldn't get bored.

Sayu - hmmm.... It would be soo much fun, we will then be always together, we could play all day !! , we could take a walk in the park together!

Rin - well , what do you say big sister? 

Aki - It might not be that bad.

Rin - ho ho, did you see that Sayu chan ! That's what a maiden in love looks like.

Aki - OKAYY , that's enough for now, we have many more things to focus on.

  After some time Miss Ayase came to take Sayu home.

Miss Ayase - Sayu , come on , it's time for us to go.

And soon the day ended

 Everyone was goin home

"TAKKUN !!" Aki called for Take

Take - yeah? 

Aki - so about tomorrow , don't forget about our plans okay

Aki was waiting for tomorrow.

 Meanwhile At Take's Home
