“Who is it?” Yuri mouthed to ask.
“Riku-chan,” Michie replied, covering the mouthpiece of her cell phone.
“Michie-chan, I found out where Yoshikawa-san goes and what she’s been up to. All the girls have decided to help,” Riku explained over the phone.
“All the girls?” Michie asked, wondering about the ones that didn’t quite fit in.
“Well, we can’t find Nishikado-san or Hashimoto-san, and no one seems to know where Haruki-san has gone either. But other than them, all of us are here,” Riku clarified.
“Well then, I’ll head back to meet up with you all, Sakagumi told her before hanging up the phone.”
“What happened?” Yuri asked.
“Ah, nothing. Riku-chan found out what’s been up with Yoshikawa-san lately, so all of us are going to help,” Michie replied.
“Help with what?” Yuri asked, confused.
Michie shrugged. “I’m not quite sure either. Riku-chan didn’t say.”
Michie took the lead and rushed out of the classroom with Yuri following behind her.
“Michie-chan!” Riku yelled, waving when she came into view.
Michie waved back as she and Yuri met up with Riku and the rest of the girls.
“Let’s go!” Riku took the lead and the girls followed.
Yuri was left behind, clueless.
“Welcome!” Yui said when she heard the door open. Her eyes widened when she saw the people standing in the doorway.
“Hello Yoshikawa-san!” Riku greeted with a smile.
The lady from that morning came out when she heard Riku’s voice. “Welcome! Thank you for coming! And you brought so many friends as well!”
“Hello!” the girls greeted.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t catch your name this morning,” the lady said to Riku.
“Miyake Torikushii. Most of them call me Riku!” she introduced.
“Thank you for the help, Riku-san!”
“Why do you work there, Yoshikawa-san?” Riku asked as all the girls walked back to Johnny’s Entertainment building.
“…You see, my family got into some financial problems, and Sawamura-san is helping us out as a friend, so I got to help her out in return,” Yui explained. “Why did all of you come?”
“I thought you seemed really tired lately, and I accidentally found out that you worked there. Sorry I acted on my own, Yoshikawa-san,” Riku explained and apologized, hoping that Yui wasn’t mad.
Yui smiled. “Thanks for the help. Now I should be able to get some sleep tonight.” She turned around to the rest of the girls. “Thanks for the help today!” she said as she took a bow.
“It was our pleasure!” the girls replied together, smiling.
Yui stood straight again, also smiling. “And all of you can just call me Yui!”
The girls all exchanged smiles as they continued to walk back, laughing and smiling along the way.
“I wonder where the girls are…,” Hikaru wondered as he sat down on the dance room floor.
The others grabbed their water bottles and sat down with him.
“They rushed off somewhere after Michie-chan and I got back. I don’t know where they went,” Yuri said.
“Ehh? Chii, why were you with her?” Daiki asked.
“She came back to wait for me,” Yuri replied.
“Oh, after she delivered your message to us?” Yuto asked.
Yuri nodded.
“What? Wait. Message? What?” Hikaru asked, unable to figure out what Yuri and Yuto were talking about.
They all looked at Hikaru.
“What?” he asked them innocently.
The boys returned back to normal.
“But Chii, what were you doing anyways?” Ryosuke asked.
“Oh, well, Riku-chan and I were caught talking during class by the teacher, so he punished us and made us stand outside. Afterwards, I had to clean the room by myself as punishment,” Yuri explained to them all.
“What about her, then?” Keito asked, referring to Riku.
“Ahh, the teacher just gave her a warning because she’s still new,” Yuri said.
The boys turned towards the door as they heard sounds of laughter coming from the hallway.
“Looks like the girls are back,” Kei said.
“And getting along, too,” Yuya added.
“Well, it’s about time the rest of us got out of here too,” Kota said as they all got up.
Daiki was the first one out the door. When he turned, he saw Sachiko standing in the middle of the hallway wearing jersey-like attire as she watched the girls from behind quietly. Daiki stopped moving and just stood there, watching her.
“What is she thinking?” Daiki wondered.***********************************************************
