-Hiroko's POV-
Ever since the day of the firework festival at Tokyo, I've been more motivated to work my ass off and practice playing with Kessoku Band. We recently just made two songs for our next concert. I spent a lot of time getting advice from The Council and also spent some time giving Fujin advice for being in a relationship.
Recently, Gotoh wanted to host a meeting at her place. Nijika, Kita and I went to her place for the meeting. Of course, Nijika and Kita were dressed well. But as for me... I was dressed in blue jeans, a black shirt with Slipknot on it, and my purple jacket tied around my waist. And just to be sure, I brought my backpack with me, filled with all kinds of things for a meeting.
On our way to Gotoh's, we stopped to get some drinks. Nijika and Kita just got some water, but... I had a mixture of drinks all in one bottle. I had Mountain Dew mixed with an energy drink to keep me awake. I accidentally stayed up till 4 in the morning just chatting with Fujin and playing games with him.
"So hot!" Kita says to the both of us.
"More... I need more..." I mumbled to myself while chugging the whole bottle down.
"Summer's in dull swing, huh?" Nijika asks after taking a sip of her bottle.
"Very much so!" Kita replied to Nijika.
"Meh... Not really..." I reply, not sweating at all.
"You guys, I think we're close to Gotoh-san's house." I say to Nijika and Kita, looking at the sun without looking away for a second.
"Thanks for showing us around, by the way." Nijika says to me.
"Eh. Don't thank me for it." I say back to Nijika, shrugging it off while shooting a three pointer with my bottle of Mountain Dew into a nearby trash can.
"Damn, that was a dirty 3-pointer." I say to myself.
"I'm really looking forward to this!" Kita says as she starts to walk to the direction of where Gotoh's house was.
"Yeah! It'll be such a new experience!" Nijika says after Kita.
"Yeah... I can't wait..." I say after Nijika, looking nervous as I start to sweat.
"Hiroko-kun, is something wrong?" Nijika asks me.
"N-Nah, it's nothing..." I say while giving Nijika a thumbs up.
The truth is... I'm afraid to go back there... Gotoh-san's dad seems scary... He looked like he didn't like me when we first met eye to eye.
But hey, it's summer break. What are the possibilities of Gotoh-san's dad being at home? He's probably at work or something.
Yeah... You're right.
"Hey, we mainly get together at Starry, right?" Kita asks.
"Yes!" Nijika replied.
"I wonder what Gotoh-san's house is like!" Kita says, starting a new conversation.
"She said something about a cramped cardboard box reminding her of home..."
Kita stops walking and asks...
"A house like a cardboard box?"
"Bocchi-chan says the funniest things, huh?" Nijika says.
"W-Well... I used to think of that back in Junior High." I say, joining the conversation.
"Oh, really? You and Gotoh-san are so alike! You two would be a perfect match!" Kita tells me.
