The Writer Osamu FF

Chapter 63

"Here! Kaede!" shouted the gray-haired Hatori, who had been waving her hand around. Shaking her head slightly, Kaede ran towards her best friend, who immediately wrapped her arms around her.

"Finaaaaally." said Chika, who could hardly wait for this day and was able to break away from Kaede after a few minutes. "It's nice to finally be able to see you in peace again." smiled Kaede, who now wrapped her arms around Megumi, who was almost crying with happiness.

"You can say it out loud..." exhaled Chika, who plopped down on the armchair. Megumi also sat down again, while Kaede ordered a cup of tea before sitting down opposite them.

"Always studying all the time. Without all this, I could see you much more often..." Chika grumbled. "You haven't changed in that anyway." Kaede grinned. Chika was still studying every day, even though she had often said that she would get better at it.

"To be honest, I also have a lot to learn." Megumi admitted, talking about the subjects she had taken. In addition to her actual art studies, she was learning a lot about online design.

According to her, she could go into the film industry after her studies and produce some designs for the background. Megumi also learned how to work with 3D. Very diverse.

"And you?" asked the black-haired girl, who had no problems with her name at her university. She had told Kaede this as soon as everyone had introduced themselves. Luck seemed to be on her side.

"Exhausting, but as you've seen, helpful." Kaede smiled. Because despite her so-called arguments with the other older students, she had been able to work faster and better on her novel with their knowledge.

"So, what do you say? I need your honest opinion so that I can correct and improve something." Kaede said, slightly excited, as she could hardly describe the feeling.

"I...totally started crying...", Chika was the first to speak, who had now started crying again. "Chi...", Kaede began and was immediately interrupted by the gray-haired girl.

"Kyoko could have talked to Cho about it!" Chika continued to cry halfway and was totally moved by this story. "Kyoko she...she kept everything inside her...and...she could have said something..."

Kaede gently placed a hand on hers. "I know." she breathed honestly, knowing of course what Chika was trying to say. "But..." Chika sniffled now. "But...you did the feelings soooo well. And...these themes are really well described. That...you have a talent for it, I already...realized with the first text."

Kaede smiled gratefully. So she had been able to work out her whole life well. A sense of relief came over her as her gaze now went to Megumi.

"I think the relationship between Mei and Arashi is pretty sweet." The black-haired girl smiled. "Somehow, Arashi reminds me a bit of Atsumu." she admitted, laughing a little.

"To be honest, I let his character traits slip in a little. Somehow, Atsumu had to be in there." , Kaede admitted, laughing softly, without saying that Arashi was actually really Atsumu.

"So I can assume that I don't have to make any corrections?" Kaede asked both of them, who shook their heads. "No, not at all." smiled Chika, who had calmed down again.

"Okay, then I just have to find a good publisher, scrape together the rest of the money and come up with an alias." Kaede nodded.

"Alias?" asked Megumi. "Yes, I don't want people to know my name if the novel is a success. I don't want to be bombarded like famous people, I want to be left in peace." Kaede explained to both of them again, although it had already been an issue in high school.

"Oh, that's right...you mentioned something once...", Chika pondered. "I'm sure you'll find a good name." she grinned, which gave Kaede a little more motivation to finish the whole book.
