Koyori pov: "Alright, let's get down to business!" Laplus yelled, her voice booming, leaving us with no choice but to hear her.
"Koyori, get out," a voice echoed in my head.
"Ugh..." I groaned in agony. Iroha checked up on me and said, "I'm okay." I stated this while catching my breath.
"You are a giant waste of money. Why do you cost so much?" The voice said it again.
"Are you alright?" Iroha asked once again.
"I'm okay!!!" I screamed
Iroha stared at me with shock, but not because I suddenly lashed out at her. Her tears were streaming down my face. She lifted her hand and wiped my tears away.
"I'm so sorry, darling," Iroha whispered into my ear, gently passing a chaste kiss on my cheek.
"We don't have to discuss the plan if you aren't ready," Chloe said.
"You can't even invent anything! What a disappointment!" Someone yelled
"Stop-Stop it..." I sobbed
Iroha pulled me into a hug and held me tightly. I could sense the mood in the area turning sour as everyone looked at me, not knowing what to say.
"Koyori, you want to destroy everything, right?" Lui-nee asked
I bit down on my lip and didn't want to admit my real plan in front of everyone again, but I nodded. "I want revolution," I said.
Laplus looked at me and smiled a little bit. "You're appreciated," she told me.
I sniffled, but at the same time, I didn't want to be pitied at all.
"Should we help you with your revolution?" Lui-nee asked
I looked straight at Lui-nee in awe. "What?" I questioned
"You know, I've decided to help you a little while ago, but can we all compromise something since we don't want to destroy like you?" Lui-nee stated
Chloe nodded. "There are things we want too," she said.
"I can give you the things you want, but you can't back out or betray me. I hate almost everything, so things you like will go too," I said.
"You can't hate everything; you must be suffering from some trauma," Laplus said.
"Of course I am suffering from trauma. My parents didn't like me; they always made fun of me for everything; they made me feel insignificant," I said.
Iroha kissed me once again, saying, "You aren't insignificant, darling, you are adorable." She said
"Thank you, Iroha, I love you," I told her.
"I love you too," Iroha replied.
I smiled happily as the others looked at me. "You hate your parents, right?" Lui-nee asked
"Only one of them made me feel this way, but I don't remember which one," I said.
Iroha frowned once again. Well, then I'll help you figure it out no matter what, so we can dispose of them!" She said
"No, Iroha, that isn't something you want; you are only saying this for me; please don't do anything you don't want to do," I said.
"Koyori, you told me that you want me to tell you if I don't want to do something, but I want to do this!" I said
"Okay, as long as you want to I can't complain right?" I asked
Iroha is devoted to me. Some may say she's too devoted, but I'm happy that she wants to help me; she loves me. I couldn't hate her if I tried.
"You just need to trust and rely on us. I promise we will fulfill everything you want. Just trust us and give me your love," Iroha stated.
"I will give you my love, just please reciprocate it and never abandon me," I said.
"I won't," Iroha stated as she hugged me again.
"We will," Lui-nee said.
I looked at everyone and gently smiled. They all agreed that they would give me love and help me. I wouldn't have to manipulate them to make them do my bidding.
"Koyori, tell me when you are feeling negative, and I will help you," Iroha said.
"Thank you, I really appreciate it," I told her.
She handed me another bottle of mayonnaise, so I began to chug it. "That is like your fourth bottle." Lui-nee pointed out
"So?" I said it in between gulps.
"One that's disgusting, and also, why do you love mayonnaise so much?" Chloe asked
"Well, you see, back in the day, I would get mayonnaise as a treat because my family was poor, but I don't mind that because it is yummy." I said
"Wow. I can honestly relate to that." Laplus stated
Well, I don't know about that, but I'm happy that she's even defending me.
"I'll always support you, Sakamata!" Laplus said
We all stared at her in awe at what she just said: She thinks I'm Sakamata. Have we regressed that much that she thinks I'm someone else? She can't recognize her own members.
Iroha slapped her over the head angrily and said, "It's Koyori!" She yelled
"Iroha-chan, you don't have to defend me right now!" I told her
"Yeah, but she got your name wrong!" She retorted
To be honest, I noticed Lui-nee and Chlo-Tan were upset by that as well.
"Laplus, you need to actually call her by the right name. Please don't mess up because you are going to split us apart." Lui-nee said
Laplus nodded Since she understood what she needed to do, I hope she will finally learn all our names.
I finished my bottle of mayonnaise and threw it to the side, only for it to be caught by Chloe.
"Do you want another?" Iroha asked
"Yes please!" I said loudly: I got glares from the other three girls all of a sudden. "I guess not now," I replied.
Iroha-chan still handed it to me since she knew that I actually wanted the mayonnaise, but I also don't like the look that they gave me.
Iroha looked deep into my eyes. "Do what you want; don't let others dictate your life, she said.
That was ironic, but still words to live by. Oddly wise for her, but that's why she is cute.
