“Hmm ……? Is it morning already? ……”
In the morning, Kotoha woke up in a daze as the sun peeked out softly.
An unfamiliar room smells different than usual.
“Ah, that reminds me, I stayed here yesterday. ……”
Rubbing her eyes, she looked around and found Suzune next to her, breathing softly in her sleep and resting her head on the desk.
She usually wears a suit of armor, but it was refreshing to see her sleeping defenseless like this.
“Ah, Ha-san woke up~?”
When she was thinking such a thing, she heard a bell-like voice along with a fragrant smell.
Standing there was Azusa, wearing an apron.
“Good morning!”
“You’re so energetic in the morning~. Good morning~”
In contrast to Kotoha, who had just woken up from sleep, Azusa seemed to have already started her activities.
“well ~I don’t drink as much as Haa san and the others do. Also, I decided to make breakfast!”
“Breakfast?”
So I checked my nose again for the source of the smell, and the warm miso smell tickled my nostrils.
The delicious smell, which stimulated my stomach, caused my body, which was sluggish with a hangover, to head toward the kitchen.
There, I found not only a pot of miso soup simmering, but also a brightly colored omelet and a pan full of scrambled eggs, both glossy and glistening.
“Why two egg dishes ……?”
“Because this is my specialty!”
She asked, but was answered with a hearty smile.
Apparently, she was used to this question and answer by now. It is easy to guess from whom this question has been asked.
“But it looks really delicious. You’re doing a good job.”
“Thank you very much! It was worth training under Rin-senpai!”
Azusa proudly speaks the name she never dared to mention.
That’s why it’s a fun memory in the person himself, and it’s important to have a memory with Rin.
“Azusa-chan is also making an effort, isn’t she?”
The cooking was one of the things that brought her closer to Rin, and she was making an effort.
Unable to take that fact in stride, she kind of said from the top of her head.
“Yes, that’s right! I want to be able to cook properly and make senpai happy!”
It was so pure that it was dazzling and made her eyes hurt.
To the extent that she was unintentionally making her wonder if she could fight with this girl, or if it was okay to fight with her.
“Hmmm, I’ll satisfy Rin with my singing.”
But just as she was starting to feel naïve, a new intruder arrives.
She has earphones in her ears, probably because she had been checking out a song.
“Good morning, Mirei chan.”
“Hnn, Good morning, Shiro.”
“She still calls me ‘Shiro’ …….”
I couldn’t help but flinch at her stoicism as I chuckled at that.
She must have had more to drink yesterday than Kotoha, but she still wakes up early in the morning and thinks about her work.
She is pure and straightforward in her own way.
“Good morning to you too, Miree-san!”
“Chibi is noisy in the morning.”
“Isn’t it terrible?!”
In contrast to herself, who was flinching, the two of them were equally involved with each other.
She should be in the same position, but she’s letting herself down.
“Anyway, hurry up and make me dinner.”
“Is that the kind of thing you say when you’re on the receiving end of someone cooking for you?!”
The two of them were playing together in a friendly manner. It seemed to Kotoha as if they were.
However, Mirei was surprisingly nonchalant in her response to Azusa’s angry protests.
“I can’t afford to lose to you. I have to get back to work.”
A declaration of rivalry from the other side of the room. Her voice was serious, and at once the calm atmosphere was strained.
Her statement was based on what had happened last night.
“–All-out war, isn’t it?”
Suzune said yesterday. A wolf signal that a super-powerful rival had increased.
Hearing those words, last night Mirei, or rather not only Mirei, but also Azusa and Kotoha, were inspired.
And it was Kotoha who recalled this from Mirei’s statement.
Yesterday she had argued half-heartedly, but even after being brought back to reality in the morning, she still had not lost that feeling.
“That’s right……. This is no time to be down.”
The words she said to herself were enough to remind Kotoha of the amount of heat she had been contending with last night.
Rather, she thought that she was still sleepwalking when she had shunned a moment ago.
And Azusa, who had been watching the situation, said teasingly,
“Well, no matter how you look at it, the one who is leading the most right now is the one who is so sleepy.”
The three of them were convinced as they looked at Suzune, who was still sleeping with a happy face.
Normally, it would be Mirei who would respond to these words, but it seems that Mirei is not blinded by love, either.
Even in the eyes of the girls who have had a long relationship with Rin, there was a common understanding that Suzune was the one who was closest to Rin.
The three of them had properly confirmed that unacceptable fact, though.
“All right, let’s do my best.”
Without any intention of losing at all, and of course without any intention of giving in. Kotoha’s voice was filled with passion.
The other two nodded their heads in agreement with Kotoha’s words, which carried a certain sense of unity and, of course, a fighting spirit.
Stimulated by Suzune’s determination, these three were surely determined as well.
