Girls' Next Tour (A Girls' Last Tour fan-sequel)

Chapter 4: Nara

"Hey, Chii-chan, come take a picture of me with the gate in the back!"

Posing for a picture, Yuuri stood in front of the large Nandaimon gate leading up to the wooden Todaiji Temple. For most of the day, Chito followed her around with a camera consistently on standby to take photographs of her. It was a fine humid summer day in mid-July at Nara Park, crowds of tourists, families, and students roamed the grounds checking out the beautiful surroundings and the large temple. The sound of the chirping cicadas and the happy laughter and hubbub of people filled the comfortable atmosphere of the park.

"Alright - say, cheese!" pointing with her camera, she snapped a picture of Yuuri smiling with the gate in the back of the frame. Yuuri wearing a floral tank top with a summer skirt, keeping her long blond hair tidy with hair clips let out a smile.

"Ooooh, Chii-chan let me see!" She rushed over to Chito to peek at the little screen of the camera. "I love this one too!"

"Yuu-chan, It will be nightfall until I take every picture of every spot here with you!" Chito responded with mild annoyance, she's been following her like a paparazzi all day with the camera.

"Sorry, I can't help it. It's such an amazing place, I am so happy that we came here too." She smiled and hugged Chito from the back. "If you gave someone the camera they can take a picture of us too, but you won't."

"Well, of course, I won't. It's an eighty thousand yen DSLR camera Yuu-chan, I won't even let you use it - "

"I know, I know... Anyway selfie time!" Yuuri pulled out her phone and snapped another picture of themselves. It was blurry with her wide smile in the back, and Chito was in the front still with an annoyed expression. The gate was barely even visible in the frame.

"Yuu-chan stop it with the selfies already! This has been going on for 2 hours now! That one deer nibbled my handbag and almost bit my camera because you wanted to feed it while I was taking a picture. Please, let's go inside the temple before my clothes turn into food!"

After they checked in at their hotel, they went wandering around the famous park petting and feeding the adorable deer, however, Chito never knew that if you buy a whole packet of deer food, a herd usually went rushing after you trying to devour everything. It was nothing new as she had a glutenous girlfriend to feed almost every day. Besides Yuuri, Chito was also suspicious of all the deer in the park, she was worried that by the end of the day the rest of her clothes would have turned into food.

"One-second Chii-chan." Yuuri seemed to be typing something on her phone and sending pictures, as Chito grumbled softly with annoyance. "Akari wanted me to send her some pictures of us today. She wanted to come here with her fiance next month, but it looks like they are too busy planning their wedding in Nagoya for September."

"You can do that in the hotel Yuu-chan, she can wait you know..." even though her girlfriend was a bit of a mild annoyance, she was always happy seeing Yuuri enjoying herself.

They were both busy through most of the year with part-time jobs, along with their studies at the university. Yuuri was constantly stressed out from continually flunking her Russian language test and kept trying with difficulty to pass some of the subjects at her university. During their summer vacations, every chance they had they spent on planning to travel. Once they could save enough money, their plan was a trip to Europe. It was their dream to rent a motorbike and visit the beautiful picturesque cities in the Czech Republic, Poland, Germany, Netherlands, and the rest of Europe. They've heard from their colleagues at the university that Europe was beautiful in summer.

For now, all they could afford was to see the beautiful sights their homeland had to offer. They both had managed to save some money to go on a small trip around Japan. With a student discount, it was even easier to plan the trip, and they started in Hakone to see the beautiful view of Mount Fuji. After that their stops were in Nagoya, Kyoto and finally they were here in Nara Park, before going further on their journey to Osaka and Hiroshima. Chito and Yuuri were beyond excited to see Nara Park and it had been on their plans for a long time now. The idea of petting and feeding friendly cute deer in a beautiful park was pretty much what brought them here, before realizing the horrors of buying deer food.
