Book Fair - Chapter 5

[bakemonoremy]

Location: Studio

Makoto: Wah, Tenkousei-chan? I was surprised because you suddenly poked your head in~

Aah, so you were worrying whether it’s okay for you to give me a job that’s kind of like modeling. ...Yeah, ‘cause it’s not like they asked me to model for them or anything.

I’ll be participating as an idol, so it’s fine.

...Huh? Why is Tenkousei-chan apologizing~?

Certainly, this all started because I wanted to help out the library committee. But the job this time is ultimately still about that.

It’s just that somewhere along the way it was decided I’d be appearing in the book fair as well… I wonder if it’s fine for me to do that?

Tsumugi: Of course it is~!

Or rather, I’m sorry. Since we are participating in the book fair in return for the lending of some valuable books, I don’t have anything to reward you with for your work.

Makoto: Eh, I don’t need any compensation! I’m not doing this for the money!

Tsumugi: Nono, we can’t have that. Please let me give you a reward for the work you’re doing. “Knights”, too.

Arashi: We don’t need any compensation either. As you know, we are not in a position to be choosy about our jobs anyway.

We are only participating in the book fair to polish the image of “Knights”. So use us as you’d like, Aoba-senpai.

Izumi: I’m fine as long as I get to work alone together with Yuu-kun.

Arashi: Izumi-chan? Were you listening to what I just said?

We’re not working for a reward this time. Also, you too, are a member of “Knights”, so if you pull out by yourself we’ll be troubled.

Izumi: Isn’t it fine. It doesn’t seem like Aoba is going to withdraw either, so it’s like we reached an agreement.

Arashi: An agreement, huh… Aren’t you ignoring the feelings of Yuuki-kun over there? He’s gotten all pale and is shaking his head, you know?

Izumi: Yuu-kun! Yuu-kun, you feel the same way as I do, right?

You really wanted to say “Please let me work together with my Onii-chan”, but couldn’t bring yourself to say it, right?

As your Onii-chan I understand your feelings, so I’m speaking by proxy for you ♪

Makoto: He’s so one-sided at this point, it feels like nothing I say will reach him!?

Huh? W-What’s the matter, Tenkousei-chan? Why are you suddenly grasping my hand…?

Izumi: Heeey? Tenkousei, what do you mean “It’ll be fine”? Don’t go touching my Yuu-kun so freely!?

Makoto: Y-You’re right! I’ll be fine! I’ll show you that I won’t lose to Izumi-san, so watch me, Tenkousei-chan!

Izumi: Hey, don’t ignore me and get all fired up! Tenkousei, just what are you trying here!?

Ritsu: Ya~awn… Since you’re not talking about anything important, it should be fine for me to go to sleep, right? Good night… ♪

Tsukasa: Wait, Ritsu-senpai! That’s no good! Aah, geez, what’s with this chaotic state of affairs!?

Tsumugi: Fufu, it’s nice that you’re all so lively. It’ll be nice if we can be this lively on the day of the book fair as well...♪

There’s not a lot of time until the event, so let’s hurry and make the clothes. Fufu, I can hardly wait~...♪
