The Kamome Office (Hanako-Kun AU)

The Kamome Office 76 - Cheer up, Yashiro!

In the break room, Yashiro Nene was seated on the chair.

Her blue ocean work jacket was taken off.

She still wore her white blouse, drenched in sweat from her chest.

The girl with cream-colored hair with teal tips was perturbed. Her left hand touches her forehead with a cooling turquoise wash cloth. Yashiro has been already awakened from her state of dizziness. "Oh, it's a nightmare. I don't mean to get trapped in the storage locker." She whimpers.

Amane holds on to Yashiro's dampened blue ocean work jacket. The boy with amber eyes was solemn. "It's not your fault." He reassures.

The girl opened her magenta eyes. Yashiro was melancholy. "But still..." She whispered.

And then, Yashiro took a paper cup of cold water from the table. She made her big sip of it.

This was Yashiro's third cup of water she drank.

Yashiro put it down with the other two emptied paper cups.

Kou was glum. "Amane's right. You didn't know it was gonna happen to you. Getting stuck in a tight spot has nothing to do with you." He reassured.

Mitsuba gets more emotional than ever. The boy with pink hair gave her another paper cup of cold water. "Here...Your fourth cup of water..." He mumbled sadly.

The girl with magenta eyes takes it from Mitsuba.

And then, the boy with pink eyes went down to his knees instantly. Mitsuba was distraught. "I'm SORRY! I tried to STOP the storage locker door sooner! It was too quick for me! And I'll give back all the things I said to call you a-" He shrieks out as his tears pours out of his eyes, bowing to her constantly.

Yashiro becomes pouty and exclaimed, "Up-pup-pup-pup-pup-pup! I forgive you, Mitsuba! You agreed not to call me a daikon! Remember!"

The boy with pink hair gets happy with his glossy eyes. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I get it! No nicknames!" He acknowledged in his exclamation.

Yashiro gets shocked at the boy with pink eyes. "Aw! Poor Mitsuba! He's like a puppy with his pleading eyes like that!" She thought.

The purple-haired girl arrived in the break room. Aoi was worried about her friend, running to Yashiro. "Nene, I heard what happened." She said.

Aoi sat on the chair next to her. "Are you okay, Nene?" She wondered.

Yashiro barely made her small smile at her best friend. "Yeah...I'm a little sweaty but fine..." She replied in her whisper.

Akane arrives behind Aoi. The boy with black glasses was frowning. "It's more than a little. Yashiro, you're all sweating like a pig." He stated.

The girl with magenta eyes was puzzled at Akane. "A pig?" She inquires.

The girl with purple eyes shook her head. Aoi made her sweet smile. "Do not worry, Nene. It's just an expression." She assured.

Yashiro nodded her head twice slowly at her best friend. "Oh...Okay..." She perceives.

Tsuchigomori appeared in the break room. The man with gold glasses walked to Yashiro. Tsuchigomori was deadpanned yet emotionless. "Yashiro, are you all right?" He asked.

The girl with magenta eyes faced the man with white-and-black hair. "Tired...but yes, Tsuchigomori..." She whispers in her answer.

The man with gold glasses sighs in frustration. "Yashiro, you are in no condition to continue to work for me." He muttered.

And then, Tsuchigomori was deadpanned yet serious at Amane. "Yugi, take her home and your brother too." He commanded.

The boy with amber nodded his head once at Tsuchigomori. Amane seems to be determined. "I'll get her to her house safe, Tsuchigomori." He acknowledges.

The girl with magenta eyes gets crestfallen, looking down at the floor. "Awww...Why..." She whimpered.

Kou made his sad smile at Yashiro. "Hey, Nene, cheer up." He comforted.

And then, Kou shrugs his shoulders. "Maybe you'll feel better if you eat something later on, alright?" He wonders.

Yashiro faces the boy with blue eyes. The girl with magenta eyes smiles a bit. "Thanks, Kou..." She whispered.

The boy with blond hair nodded his head once. "Hey, that's what friends are for." He utters.

Amane and Tsukasa helped Yashiro get back home.

On the way home, the poor girl with magenta eyes got gloomy. "Oh...I want something..." She sighed solemnly.

Amane and Tsukasa stops walking.

The boy with amber eyes was confused, glancing right to left for a place to eat. And then, Amane becomes happy. "Say!" He exclaims.

There was the random bakery and cafe.

Amane looks and grins at her. "Yashiro, how do you feel about having donuts with us?" He asks.

The girl with magenta eyes was baffled at Amane. "Donuts?" She inquired.

Several moments later, Yashiro became joyful. "Nom, nom, nom." She muffled, chewing on her strawberry donut in the cafe.

Tsukasa chomped on the plain donut. The boy with orange-and-yellow eyes made his bite bigger than a human can handle.

Amane was smiling at her, holding his plain donut from his right hand. "Are you okay now, Yashiro?" He wondered.

The girl with magenta eyes was beamed. "Yes, Amane! The donuts are delicious!" She replied in her squealing voice.

Yashiro bits off her strawberry donut again.

The boy with amber eyes made his puzzling smile at her. "I'm glad you liked it." He said.

Yugi Amane and Yugi Tsukasa escorted Yashiro Nene to her house.

They returned to their homes with their pleasing faces.

On the next morning, the girl with magenta eyes headed to the bathroom.

Yashiro wore her cute hamster jammies. She sways her head left to right.

Yashiro was cheerful. "Time to check my calories...Because I like to see how much I lose weight...I do keep my steps in my dailies...If I lose some pounds, I celebrate with cake..." She sings her little tune in her girly voice.

Yashiro stepped onto the bathroom scale.

The girl with magenta eyes straightened herself.

After a few seconds, Yashiro looked down at her bathroom scale.

After she takes one look of her results, Yashiro gets mind-boggled. "EHHHHHH?!" She gasped in her horrorstruck face.

Yashiro Nene has new dilemma for herself.

And finally, Yashiro furrows her eyebrows. The girl with magenta eyes was mad. "I must talk to Sakura. This is urgent for me." She thought.
