"You've been hurt badly. Your shoulder is swelling worse than your injuries to your abdomen. I've applied my trusty medicine to it." Ayameko remarks.
"W-What medicine…?" Asuka questions her.
Suddenly Ayameko holds up a spray bottle, the label saying All purpose Treatment spray! Treat cuts, bruises, and even infections with this spray!! It sounded like it came from a sketchy and corny infomercial.
"D-Does…Does it even work…?" Asuka asks her again.
"Well, you're able to sit up right?" she deadpan stares at Asuka.
"Y-Yeah…" She nods.
"Then it works dumbass. I've sprayed it a couple of times on your abdomen bruises while you were out, it'll be numb for a couple of days so don't get into anymore fights like the one that caused them."
Although Ayameko spoke very harshly, she was trying to make sure Asuka was okay, a broader insight into this mysterious woman. Asuka looked at Ayameko as Ayameko gave her a slightly more intense stare as it provoked Asuka, making her look away.
"That's what I thought…" Ayameko scoffs with a smug look.
"…"
Asuka looks at her hands as Ayameko notices it, but rather than prying into it, Ayameko gets up as she heads to the door and moves the peephole cover. Looking through it from her room to the hallway she sees no one as she covers it again, walking back to Asuka.
"No one's in the hallway, you should be good to go now." Ayameko tells her.
"H-Huh…?"
"Did you not hear what I just said? You're good to leave dumbass." Her tone became slightly more serious.
"O-Oh right."
Asuka moved the blanket off as she got up and out of Ayameko's bed. Both stood up at the same time as Asuka fixed her jacket but before she could leave, Ayameko grabbed onto her arm.
Asuka looks over as Ayameko sighs briefly, "Don't be an idiot and get hurt alright? I'm not going to be this nice to you the next time we meet." Ayameko warned Asuka. She lightly nods before Ayameko lets go of her arm. She walks out of Ayameko's room as Ayameko backs up and hides behind a wall momentarily and out of the sunlight.
The door is closed behind Asuka as Ayameko sighs in relief, "Finally…I can fucking record my video…" and just as she goes over to her chair and sits down, the door opens again as one eye twitches out of annoyance.
"CAN I JUST—"
When she turned to look she saw that it was her best friend, Leo. Leo was a tall individual with black hair with some blue tints and highlights, a stark contrast to Ayameko's red highlights and tints. Her eyes were a hazel brown color as she locked the door behind herself.
"Who was that just now?" Leo raised an eyebrow
"…"
"C'mon Aya, let me in on it." Leo chuckles.
"…Just a stowaway…" Ayameko says with a slight pout.
"Eeeh…Doesn't sound like it~"
"I'm being serious! Fuckin Kimura got me intertwined with his stupid shit…"
"Man, what's with you and this Kimura fella? First was the fight in the middle grounds and now this…" Leo leaned on Ayameko's desk slightly.
"…How should I know, his stupid ass keeps getting me involved in his stuff…"
"But like, don't you barely know 'em? Why are you talking like—"
"I don't know alright!" Ayameko suddenly shouts.
"…"
Leo looks at her with a serious expression as Ayameko rests her head on the desk, her keyboard moved slightly up towards the monitors. Leo sighs as she begins counting with her fingers, going from one to 10 with one hand.
At exactly 10 seconds, Ayameko sits up rubbing her face a bit. "It's just, I feel like we know each other but don't at the same time…it's a weird thing…" Ayameko answers Leo's interrupted question.
"Like—"
"No! Ew!" she fake gags, "Hell no! I don't like him! He's more like a brother I never had."
"Well, that closes that speculation." Leo chuckles.
"If I had to choose between him and his roommate, Naoki I think his name was, I'd choose Naoki." Ayameko boldly tells Leo.
"Oh?~" Leo's interest suddenly piqued, "Why Naoki? Isn't he a slacker that sits beside him?"
"Well…" Her eyes dart a bit around her room as she shakes her head.
"Why are we even talking about this! What are you even here for Leo!" Ayameko changes the subject.
Just then Leo hands her a piece of paper, Ayameko looks down at it as she grabs it, shining her desktop light onto it as it reveals what Leo was here for. The paper was a poster for the School Festival in a few weeks.
"Why are you giving me a school festival poster?"
"Just to remind you that your class has to choose your theme."
"What does that—"
Suddenly the idea comes crashing down to her, a festival held where all the students and classes must choose a theme, sounding like it came straight out of an anime. She crumbles the paper and tosses it to the trash bin beside her bookshelf.
"I'm not going, never will go."
"Aww come on Aya, imagine all the fun times we could have~" Leo trys to get her on board.
"No, I have a video to record and edit Leo. Plus, why would I spend all my time walking around just sightseeing—"
"What if you were with Naoki?" Leo Smugly tells Ayameko.
"..."
Ayameko suddenly went quiet as her usual responsive behavior was slacking anytime Naoki's name was brought up. Her face just had a faint fluster as she just tried brushing it off, going to her mouse and keyboard abruptly, choosing not to answer Leo's question.
Leo's smug smile confirmed her suspicions as she pats Ayameko on the head lightly. Ayameko moves her hand to smack it out of the way as it stops right before hitting Leo's forearm, her thoughts being calm and collected, but also knowing that it was just mere teasing. She slowly moves her hand down as Leo moves her hand off her head. Her finger reaches out towards a key on her second and smaller keyboard, clicking a key as it starts her recording.
