Another normal afternoon in the bathroom,Hanako and Kou bickering while Tori watched from the sidelines,earphones in and music playing since Hanako had still revoked any privilege to help out.Sometimes Tori had caught Kou staring at her and Nene with a sad look in his eyes.Just what was up with that?Tori was deep in thought until Nene slammed the door open,catching everyone's attention.
"Guys!"
They all turned to her,heads tilted.
"What's up Yashiro?Watcha got there?"
Nene held up one the student scrapbooks,filled with photos from various clubs.Kou hummed,
"How'd you get that Senpai?"
Nene suddenly coughed sheepishly and looked away.Tori suddenly cracked up but covered her laugh with a cough.
"Nene Senpai?You having one of the scrapbooks wouldn't have anything to do with Aoi Senpai-"Tori was cut off as Nene covered her mouth,shaking her head vigorously,
"Not.another.word.out of.you.missy!"
Tori held up her hands defensively and smiled,still snickering.She remembered passing by and seeing Aoi pinning Nene to the wall to get her attention.As Tori had walked away,she had seen Aoi give Nene the album.Hanako hovered over to the pair and peered at the book.
"It looks fine to me Yashiro!Why'd you bring it?"
Nene gave the book to Tori and Hanako,both holding it.They looked at her as she frowned and held her arms up by her head in a slightly creepy way-(like that👇)-"There are hands. . .arms. . .the pictures used to look so pretty-WAH!THERE THEY ARE!"
Nene squealed and jumped into Tori's arms.Tori hummed,ignoring Nene as she held her friend bridal style.Much to Nene's word,purple and dark blue arms had sprouted on the window sill,squirming and looming around them.Hanako smiled and petted Nene's head,
"Calm down my dear radish!They're just low level apparatuses.Tori would you hold Yashiro back to save me enough time to explain to the people want these little guys are so I can avoid my inevitable second fate?"
Tori nodded and hastily held Nene as she tried to attack him.Kou cringed as one of the arms poked and prodded his shoulder.
Ew!Hanako what do we do!?"Hanako suddenly held up a pointing stick with a small gloved hand on it and pointed at the arms,
"These little guys don't need much!They just want us to do what they want!Like this one here,it wants a mani pedi!So-we give that to em!If we do as they say,those pictures in the album should be good as new!"
Kou looked skeptical so Nene took his hand and smiled sweetly,
"Don't worry Kou!We can all do this together!"
Kou flushed furiously since Nene was holding his hand,
'SHE'S SO CUTE!"Tori hummed as one of the arms poked her,holding a second hand violin and bow.In excitement,she accidentally hit Nene,knocking her to the floor and rushed over to the arm,
"You want me to play music!?I'd be honoured!"
"Tori!Don't drop me so casually!"
Nene whined as she stood up,dusting her skirt off.And so the group got to work,they played board games with the arms,gave them a few mani pedi's like Hanako had shown them.Tori played the violin and even taught a few of them how to play it."Wow!These pics are lookin' sweet!"
Kou said happily,Nene turned to him,
"I know right?I heard the nominee who took em' got lots of awards for them though,you'll find the names at the back Kou!"
Tori sighed and looked away,Mitsuba had been the nominee.Tori remembered during her first year of high school,he had burst into her room,holding a certificate in his hands and a proud smile on his face,
"Lookit Kendo!I'm a photographer superstar!"
Tori flinched as she felt a comforting squeeze on her shoulder and turned to see Hanako smiling at her to which she returned.She saw a hand nudging her elbow and turned to it.
"Hey little guy!Know what you want yet?"
The arm suddenly grabbed hers and yanked her forward,a grotesque looking grin growing on it,
"Ì wâṉṯ ÿøû ṯø čømē ā ḻīṯṯḻē čḻøšêṟ føṟ mê. . ."
"H u h ?"
