Chapter 28 Macaron Longlong is so sleepy!
Visiting the volleyball club is definitely a rewarding experience.
Amane Akina put away her easel with satisfaction. This time, she stayed in the corner to paint and sternly warned the twins not to come looking for her.
"Just show your best selves. I'll record it." A confident smile graced her face.
Both of them were moved by her, nodded, and happily ran to the assembly point to begin training.
She opened her sketchbook and began to depict the states she had captured, quickly sketching each person onto the paper, planning to refine them later when she got back.
Not only that, she also took several photos with her phone. If possible, she will probably paint a rather large oil painting.
Of course, the F100 type is still a bit difficult for people.
She patted her somewhat stiff face, checked the time, and realized it was almost dinnertime; she was getting a little hungry.
After putting away the five or six sketches she had finished that day, Akina Amaho stood up.
She waved to Kita Shinsuke, indicating that she was leaving, and Kita Shinsuke nodded.
When Miyako and Miyako were resting, they noticed that there was no one left in the corner. Of course, the volleyball team's training was also almost over.
Gong You was a little dissatisfied and complained, "Why did Mina leave on her own again today?"
He wanted to wait until after training to share his experience with Mina, since he felt great.
"There's no way around it, I guess I'm afraid I'll faint again." Miyaji shrugged, he could empathize with that feeling.
"There's nothing we can do about it then. Let's send her a message on social media." Gong You took out his phone and started typing furiously.
His message was posted in the three-person group chat.
[Miya Yu: Akina—why did you just leave again today?!]
[Tian Sui: It's almost dinnertime, so I need to hurry home and prepare.]
[Miyaji: See? I told you Nami was hungry.]
After sending the message, Gong Zhi glanced at Gong You with a faint look, but there was a hint of smugness in his eyes.
This made Gong You even angrier.
In this setting, it's clear that Miyaji understands Akina better than anyone else.
[Gong You: What?! We could have gone to a barbecue restaurant together after training, right?]
We had agreed to go to the amusement park together this weekend and also have a meal together.
But if they can go out together regularly, that would be proof that their relationship is even better, right?
[Tianhui: After all, I can't let something like that happen again, I'd feel embarrassed.]
Akina Amazu ran her fingers through her hair and chuckled softly.
Her hair was a little disheveled. Having just finished eating, she was now sitting in front of a huge easel, looking at the blank canvas.
She continued typing.
[Tian Sui: Okay, I'll stop chatting now, I need to start drawing.]
Akina Amazuki has already made up her mind. She will turn the sketch she drew on a whim during her lunch break into an oil painting and give it to them.
Well... but it is a complete painting after all, so it depends on where they plan to store it.
Akina Amaho smiled as she looked at the sketch and quickly picked up her pen to outline the human figure.
If it's an oil painting, should it be more realistic, or a little more imaginative?
Just draw whatever you like best.
She held a palette of paint in her left hand, dipped it in yellow paint, and applied it to the canvas.
[Miyaji: Akina, go do your own thing. Don't bother with Yu.]
[Miya Yu: Why are you saying that to me! If Mina had just said so, I would have agreed, okay?]
However, both messages were unread, indicating that Honoka had already put down her phone and was engrossed in her painting by then.
Miyaji smiled and put his phone away, then began to eat the rice ball he had bought from the convenience store.
"What is Mina drawing now... I'm so looking forward to it. I think she'll show us her artwork, right?" Miyako opened an energy bar, stuffed it into her mouth, and chewed it, her cheeks puffing out a little.
"At worst, we can see it on the weekend." Gong Zhi was a little absent-minded.
He was still a little curious about what kind of oil paintings Amaho Akina would create.
The last time I saw her, she had only painted scenery, which was rather monotonous, even though it was beautiful but lacked any distinctive features.
“If that’s what you’re saying, then you’re right,” Gong You said.
Although he was still very curious—he couldn't wait to see the painting tomorrow.
However, we shouldn't rush things.
-
Akina Amaho slowly exhaled.
She still hasn't finished the painting. As expected, oil painting is not an easy task. Judging from the rough estimate, it will probably take at least another night to finish this painting.
Well, the progress is pretty good, although compared to sketching, oil painting always feels like it lacks a bit of power—maybe it's because my skills aren't good enough yet.
She shakily took off her paint-stained apron, gave it a quick rinse, and then collapsed onto the bed and fell asleep.
-
Despite sleeping very well, Akina Amako couldn't help but yawn as the three of them sat together eating on the rooftop.
"Did you stay up too late last night?" Miyaji asked.
Akina Amane waved her hand, then yawned.
"No...it's just that I used up too much energy yesterday while painting." Her voice was a little soft.
It sounded like she was muttering something, but Gong You thought she was quite cute like that.
"Hey... is that us in the drawing?" he asked, seemingly very casually.
Akina Amako raised her eyes and glanced at Yuu Miyako. For some reason, she felt that Yuu looked a little listless.
But it also looks more breathtaking.
"Yes, I wanted to try painting it in oil, but it really takes too much effort."
As she spoke, she yawned again.
"If you're very tired, why don't you take a day off?" Gong Zhi frowned, a little worried about her condition.
"No need, I'm just a little tired. I still need to attend class properly. Besides, I plan to finish that painting today." As she spoke, she stuffed two macarons into their lunchboxes.
"But in that case, I won't come to the volleyball club today." She was simply too exhausted.
I guess I drew too much yesterday. I feel like drawing is really a physically demanding activity.
Akina Tensui managed to force herself to put another mouthful of rice into her mouth.
"Oh, what a pity. I was planning to show off the new technique I just tried yesterday." Gong You pouted, a little disappointed.
"Wait until you're more skilled before showing me, isn't that the same thing?" She smiled, her eyes crinkling, and closed her lunchbox.
"Okay, I'm finished eating. I need to go back first and rest for a while during my lunch break..." She yawned again.
Miya Yu and Miyaji watched Amaho Akina's figure with some worry.
Miya Yu lowered her voice, even though Amaho Akina had already left: "Is she really alright...?"
Gong Zhi also lowered his voice and said, "Let's take her to the school gate after school today."
It would be bad if she fainted; at least we need to make sure she looks okay.
Gong You nodded, agreeing with the suggestion.
Akina Amane was unaware of this conversation; she simply returned to her classroom and then lay down on her desk to rest for a while.
I've had enough sleep, but I don't know why, maybe I'm just mentally exhausted.
Just as my eyelids were about to droop, a girl suddenly walked over.
"Tian Sui," the girl called out her name.
Akina rubbed her eyes, regaining her senses: "What is it?"
She doesn't usually interact much with her classmates, so there shouldn't be anything that could suddenly come up to her.
"I've seen it. You've been eating with those twins from the volleyball team every day lately, haven't you?" The girl quietly bent down, looking a bit gossipy.
Akina Amaho nodded, seemingly puzzled.
"You seem to get along really well with them—hey, tell me, which one do you like better?"
Is this girl here to inquire about their friendship?
Akina was even more confused. In other words, she didn't understand why anyone would be curious about such a thing.
But she still obediently answered the question: "What do you mean, who I like more? I'm happy as long as I'm with them."
So, is it necessary to distinguish whose friendship is more important?
She cherishes both of her friends and doesn't want to diminish her friendship with the other for any reason, or because she values one more than the other.
"To be honest, I like both of them very much," Amamiya concluded.
The girl was clearly a little disappointed, probably because she hadn't heard any exciting news.
She drawled out, "Okay—"
As Akina watched her retreating figure, she slumped back onto the table.
She couldn't help but furrow her brow.
What was that person's name again?
Come to think of it, she doesn't even remember the name of the girl in the seat in front of her... Oh well, it's not important.
She let out a soft breath, closed her eyes, and drifted into a light sleep.
Akina Amane was completely unaware that her suspected infidelity—specifically, with twins—would soon be making headlines on the school forum.
She never reads the campus forums; those rumors are useless to her.
-
After school.
As Akina Amane packed her things and was about to go home alone, she was surprised to find someone waiting for her outside the door.
It is Miyako and Miyaji.
"Why didn't you go straight to the volleyball club?" She stepped forward and naturally stood between the two of them.
Well, if we don't want them to start fighting while walking, it's better to keep them a little distance.
"I was thinking of dropping Mina off at the school gate today." Gong You touched his neck, a little guilty.
Because he was worried about Amako Akina, he planned to walk her a short distance away, but for some reason, he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Yes, because I'm afraid Mina might suddenly faint on the way."
Miyaji nodded and spoke frankly.
"Don't worry, I've recovered by now after an afternoon," said Akina Amami, trying to open her eyes wide.
He did look quite radiant.
"Hey—let's walk together for a bit. I haven't walked this stretch of road from the classroom to the school gate with Mina yet."
Miyako had already grabbed Amiho Akina's arm and was leading her downstairs.
Miyaji grabbed Akina's other arm: "We sometimes want to see what Akina sees through her eyes."
Akina Ameho paused for a moment, then let them go.
She followed the twins' steps and walked forward: "Okay, but we'd better walk faster."
