"Gaah!" Hibiki grunted, lugging a huge box down the cleaned main path of the first island. "How did we manage to stuff so much decorations into two goddamn boxes...?!"
Setsuka noticed how her voice sounded strained as she tried to carry the heavy box. "Biki, stop. Put yours down, and I'll carry it." She told the tiny girl. "My box is a lot lighter, so you can carry it a lot easier."
Upon being given permission, Hibiki exhaustedly put down her package. In fact, she put it down it so fast that Setsuka was worried that the vocalist had just dropped it, but the billiards player knew that there was thankfully nothing breakable in that box. Her own box was light with fragile things.
Setsuka put down her box and picked up Hibiki's with ease, and the tired girl picked up the other box, her expression morphing into a relieved one as she felt that the box was lighter. "Th-Thanks, Suka!" She gasped with a smile.
"Be careful with that one, it has glass in it." The billiards player warned, continuing their walk towards the guest house. "Tomorrow is Shin's birthday party, we have to set up the guest house quickly."
"W-Wait, what if he comes in before we can surprise him with it?" Hibiki nervously questioned.
"Don't worry, Ra-ra is distracting him for the rest of the day, and there's no chance that he'll be able to overcome her teasing. Even if he's getting a little better with his confidence issues, Ra-ra is in a whole other disaster category." Setsuka laughed. "Yu and Mac will keep him distracted until lunch tomorrow, and then we can show him in."
"I heard th-that Mika's going to bed early and getting us boxed lunches for supper tonight. I guess that's because he's getting more magic to wake up early and cook up a storm for tomorrow's lunch." The vocalist mentioned. "Should we pick up some sleeping medicine for him on our way back? Or maybe drug a boxed lunch with it and give it to him?"
"Well, we should tell him that it's drugged before we give it to him, but I think Kado will appreciate that!" The taller girl agreed. "Now, we should hurry up with these boxes!"
The girls began to walk quicker, still being careful to not jostle the boxes in their arms too much. Finally, the building of the guest house came into view, and they began to slow down their walking. With her arms full from the heavy box, Setsuka lightly kicked the door in a rhythmic way.
Hibiki raised her eyebrows. "Suka, you can just put your box down and-"
The vocalist was cut off by the door suddenly opening, and Sora stood in the doorway with a feather duster. "Hello, Setsuka, Hibiki. I take it you guys are here to decorate things for Shinji's party?" The albino asked, stepping aside. "Come on in, I was just finishing up with dusting the shelves. I won't get in your way."
Sora let the girls inside, who immediately put their boxes on the nearest table. "Aah, that was difficult..." Hibiki groaned, but looked up at the billiards player with a smile. "Thanks for helping me with the boxes, Suka!"
"Aw, it was nothing!" Setsuka chuckled as blush appeared on her cheeks. While Hibiki giggled at their excitement, the billiards player slightly opened her right eye to record this cute moment. But as soon as she caught a small video of the smaller girl's cute face, the eye began to make quiet static noises, and Setsuka closed her eye in a hurry.
Hibiki looked around in confusion upon hearing that sound. "Hey, what was THAT?" She questioned, trying to find out where it came from.
"No idea." Setsuka lied, pretending to look around the room with her.
"I'll check if something got into the vents, I'll let you know what I find." Sora began walking towards the stairs. When Hibiki wasn't looking though, she shared a look and a small smile with Setsuka. The taller girl was relieved, Sora would always keep a secret.
"Well, regardless, we should still start setting out all of the boxes." Setsuka spoke up, opening a box and bringing Hibiki's attention back to her. "I'm really excited for this party, it's the first birthday party we've had on this island!"
"Jiji's birthday is on the ninth, but in two days after that, it'll be mine and Kanade's birthdays! I wonder how old we all are now?" The vocalist wondered.
"Hm, maybe you should ask Monocrow about that when the party comes around. But that isn't a priority right now!" The billiards player suddenly grabbed Hibiki in a hug and held her close. "Here's a big hug for the birthday girl!"
"Heeeey, Sukaaaa!" Hibiki playfully whined, not fighting against the hug as the two of them laughed. From upstairs, Sora smiled as she heard them having fun, glad that they were happy.
