[Monthly Girl Nozaki-kun] Newbie in Love

Since this week, I have been avoiding Miko Chai intentionally or unintentionally.

such as:

"Hey, Qianxia..." Mikoshiba who was opposite me waved hello to me.

"Chiyo, I'm sorry, I'll leave the rest to you." Putting the sketchbook that needs to be handed over to the art club this week in the hand of Chiyo next to me, I ran away with my schoolbag on my back.

Chiyo: "(⊙o⊙)..."

Miko Chai: "...-_-|||"

Another example:

"Du, are you free tomorrow weekend?" Chiyo and I walked out of the classroom after school, and Nozaki-kun came over from the next class.

I nodded, "Yes, what's the matter?"

"I have a deadline the day after tomorrow and need your help."

"no problem."

"The background decoration is up to you and Mikoshiba." Nozaki-kun let out a long breath, finally letting go of the big stone in his heart.

"Yuzi Chai-kun?" I opened my mouth wide to express my surprise, "Will Yu, Yuzi Chai-kun go too?"

"Hmm... is there any inconvenience?"

"I'm sorry, Nozaki-kun, it's not convenient for me to go out tomorrow." I waved my hands in horror, "Then I have to go back first, and Chiyo will leave you alone."

"Hey! Du, you just said that you are free tomorrow."

"I'm having my period tomorrow, so I shouldn't go out....I'm sorry, Nozaki-kun!" I replied to Nozaki-kun behind me while running towards the stairs in the corridor.

"=_=..." Nozaki-kun was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Chiyo, "Sakura, you girls should not go out during menstruation?"

"...No, I think Qianxia just simply doesn't want to see Miko." Chiyo replied with a blank face.

"(?_?)..." Nozaki-kun and Chiyo looked shocked by me.

Hiding in the corner, I looked at Chiyo and Nozaki-kun who were looking at each other, and I said sorry to Nozaki-kun over and over again in my heart.

...I'm sorry, Nozaki-kun, I really want to help you, but Mikoshiba's sense of presence is too strong, so I don't want to treat my aesthetics too badly.

*****************

"Alas..." Walking on the campus, I helplessly recalled what happened recently.

To be honest, it's really good to hide from Mizu Chai-kun so blatantly?

"Ah... Qianxia-chan!" A hand behind me patted my shoulder, and then Kashima-kun's face appeared in front of me, "What's wrong? A listless face, that's not what I had in mind Your Royal Highness~~!"

"Kashima-kun...it's you." I smiled at Kashima-kun, "Is there no rehearsal for the drama club today? And...what's wrong with your face?"

"Hehe...Because I'm going to eat parquet with Chiyo-chan next time, so I'm stuck." Kashima-kun touched the fine marks on his face, "This was smashed by the president with a background board, saying When I got up, the background board suddenly flew over and really scared me, ahaha..."

"=_=...Kashima-kun, can you not continue to die?" I think I have seen the tragic scene of Senior Hori hanging Kashima-kun upside down and beating him violently.

"Kashima-kun, how do you feel about Hori-senpai?"

"?...What does it feel like?"

"That's...how do you think of Hori-senpai."

"Hmm..." Kashima-kun, who pinched his chin and thought, looked really handsome from the side, "I really respect the president, I like the president very much, so I hope I can be at the president's wedding Put on a show for him."

"..." Kashima-kun, I don't think Senior Hori will tell you even if he has a girlfriend with your provocative skills! ...What if the love is taken away by a knife halfway? ! !

*****************

When I returned home in a daze, I was shocked by the scene in the living room as soon as I opened the door. Drawings were scattered randomly on the sofa, table, chair...the ground in the living room.

I stood at the gate with an embarrassing face, not knowing whether to enter or not.

A kennel...really a kennel!

I just had a normal day of school, and my sister has the ability to make such a mess in the living room.

And in such a messy living room, a woman with weedy and messy hair waved at me angrily, "...Qianxia, ​​are you back?"

"(⊙o⊙)...Sister, sister?!" I called out uncertainly.

"What's the matter?... It's my sister who I just met this morning." She pushed back the hair on her forehead with her smeared black hands, and my sister showed me a piercing smile.

Eh--? !Really sister! ! !So...what the hell is going on at home?Dare to be attacked by terrorists?

"...Today is the deadline?" I turned my head away feebly, carefully stepped over the sketches all over the floor, found my indoor slippers and changed them, and closed the entrance door smoothly.

"Look for a place to sit first, I'll pour tea." My sister didn't answer my question, she just waved her hand to signal me to do whatever I wanted, but went into the kitchen to pour tea.

"=_=..." I also want to sit down and rest, but there must be a place to sit, and now I don't even have a place to put my feet down. Hey!

I took off my school uniform jacket, rolled up my sleeves, and resigned myself to tidying up.

"Sister, didn't you cook for yourself at noon?" Nestled on the coffee table and found a bucket of instant noodle bowl with only leftover soup left.

"Hehe... I don't have time to burn it." My sister walked over with two cups of tea and smiled.

I stopped talking... bowed my head and continued to clean up.

By the time I cleaned the living room completely, it was already ten minutes later.

"Wow... I'm out of ink!" Just as I took the teacup, my sister's scream made my hands tremble, and I almost spilled the tea in the cup.

"...Sister, didn't you replenish your tools last weekend?" As a professional cartoonist, why do you still encounter the mistake of 'running out of ink', which only a low-intelligence businessman would make? !

"Sorry, I forgot!" The sister holding the paintbrush tapped her head and stuck out her tongue at me mentally.

"It's too late to go out and buy at this time, I'll help you borrow a bottle from Nozaki-kun downstairs." Putting down the glass and standing up, I walked silently to the entrance and sat down to change my shoes.

"Wow... It's great to have Qianxia as my sister." My sister clapped her hands happily, tilted her head and smiled gratefully at me.

Sister, I beg you to stop being so natural, being your sister...it's really hard...

************

"Nozaki..." Mikoshiba put down the pen after finishing the background decoration with a stomach ache, and collapsed on the low table, "You said... am I hated by Qianxia?"

"Hmm..." Nozaki-kun stopped the paintbrush in his hand, turned his head to look at Mikoshiba, "Did you just find out now?!"

"..." Chiyo expressed her sympathy for Mikoshiba's experience, she gritted her teeth and said nothing about the dream Chinatsu told her.

——After all, she met Chinatsu first, so... I'm sorry, Miko!

"Chiyo, what do you think happened to Qianxia recently?" Mikoshiba tilted his head with his arm pillowed, shaking the boxed orange juice with a straw in his hand.Hmm... It's really uncomfortable to be hidden...

"Eh——?! Why did Miko ask me all of a sudden?" Chiyo in Hirata shook her hands, raised her head and smiled at Mikoshiba stiffly, "Well... probably Kawashima-kun feels like he likes it Mamiko, but I don’t think I like Mamiko, but I want to prove that I like Mamiko...”

"What the hell are you talking about?!" Mikoshiba looked at Chiyo for a while, and finally sighed weakly, "I saw Chinatsu after school today, and I waved to her with a very handsome smile."

"...and then?"

"——the other party turned around and ran away screaming with a terrified expression like seeing a ghost."

"(?_?)...Little Miko, are you sure you're not hated by Qianxia?" Chiyo didn't know how to complain.

"...I'll go out to get some air first, you go ahead." After finishing speaking, Miko Chai stood up, walked to the entrance, bent over to put on his shoes, put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked straight out.

Looking at Mikoshiba's back, Chiyo could only twitch the corners of her mouth in sympathy.

Little Miko... please don't look like the world is collapsing, your back looks so depressed!The world is still very beautiful, don't be hopeless in life! ! !

"Nozaki-kun, excuse me." Seeing that Nozaki-kun's door was open, I walked in without authorization. Anyway, it's not the first time I come here, and I don't need to be too formal every time.

"Qianxia!"

"Yo..." Seeing Chiyo looking at me with shining eyes, I raised my hand and waved at her. After seeing the boy beside her, I nodded to him, "Senior Hori is also there, Are you here to help Nozaki-kun paint the background again?"

"That's right, today I'm mainly here to ask Nozaki-kun to write the script." Senior Hori, who propped his chin, nodded to me as a greeting.

"All?" Nozaki-kun turned his head and looked at me, "Why are you here? Didn't you say that you should not go out?"

"(?_?)...." Nozaki-kun, please forget what I said before. "Excuse me, do you have any extra ink? My sister is due tomorrow and the ink is used up. I'm here to borrow a bottle of ink."

"It's XX brand, right? Wait for me a moment." Nozaki-kun stood up, took out a bottle of ink from the shelf beside the painting supplies and handed it to me, "Please help me convey to Miss Du that... That civet cat that gets in the way, the latest suspenseful short story is really interesting."

=_=... My face turned pale and green, green and white again, "...I will tell my sister."

Regarding the civet cat that is ubiquitous in my sister's comics, I just want to say: Mr. Maeno, the evil editor, how deep is the hatred between you and your sister? ! !

...I can't give my sister a bright future in comics, but I have to leave a way for my sister to make a living—! ?

Please, Mr. Maeno, don't kill my sister! Hey! !

Sister, she... also wants to draw a manga for normal girls without tanuki! ! ! (╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻
