Start By Becoming A Mangaka 127 Meeting Between Friends

"Be honest with your feelings, huh?" Yaeko muttered, but suddenly someone slapped her back.

"What's wrong? Your face is more gloomy than yesterday, even though you started to get better a few days ago," Yaeko looked at her friend with hateful expression.

"Nothing," Yaeko didn't say anything and was trying to continue her job.

"Ara, what is it? Are you fighting with your boyfriend?" Her words made her lose her focus.

"Whwhat are you talking about!!" Yaeko looked quite fl.u.s.tered.

Her friend was grinning, "Hehehe, I want to know who can break those ice breaks like the heart of yours," she took her phone and started to call her friends, "Oi, Nanako, let's have a drink tonight, Yaeko get herself a boyfriend."

"WHAT!! ARE YOU SERIOUS!! SURE, I'LL COME!! I'LL COME!!!" Her voice was very loud and made Yaeko trembled.

"SATSUKI!!!!" Yaeko was angry.

Satsuki Matsumae is a struggling novelist and journalist who soon enough elopes with her boyfriend to evade his debt. She is the characters from 'Hanasaku Iroha' and the mother of the main character.

"Wwait!! Let me call once more!!" Satsuki tried to push Yaeko and called someone, "Ah, Eri? Are you there? Can you come with us to drink together tonight?"

"Sigh, what is it?" They heard a tired voice on the phone.

"Yaeko got herself a boyfriend, we need to know who this guy is," Satsuki dropped a bomb.

"WHAT!! YAEKO GET HERSELF A BOYFRIEND!!" Eri was surprised, "I'll come tonight!!!"

Satsuki looked satisfied and looked toward Yaeko who was grumbling. She sighed, "Look, everyone is very worried about you since your husband has divorced you, we want you to be happy Yaeko." She looked very sincere.

Yaeko still grumbled, "You don't know anything!!!"

"That's why you need to tell us!! Tonight, let's have a drink with everyone!!!" Satsuki grabbed her shoulder, "Unfortunately, Yukiko and Hana are still abroad, it'll be fun if they come with us like in the past."

Yaeko sighed. She had never won against this friend of hers in the past, "I still don't want to talk about it."

"Hehehe, don't worry about it, we're just trying to meet with old friends," Satsuki thought mischievously. She knew that Yaeko was very weak against alcohol and after she was drunk. She could start to ask her a question.

In the night time, Satsuki and Yaeko arrived at the bar where they had made a promise. They entered the bar and found both Nanako and Eri.

Nanako Onodera is a minor character in the Nisekoi series and is the mother of Kosaki and Haru Onodera. She is also the owner of the Onodera Sweets Shop.

Eri Kisaki is a character in the manga and anime franchise Detective Conan. Her real name is Eri Mouri. She began to use her maiden name again after she began living separately from her husband Kogoro Mouri. She also runs her law practice under her maiden name. She has one daughter, Ran Mouri.

"You're late!!" Eri complained to both of them.

"Sorry, sorry, Yaeko is very stubborn and it was very hard to force her to come," Satsuki said.

"Hmph!" Yaeko looked away.

"Yaeko, tell us!! You've got yourself a boyfriend right?" Nanako asked.

"Is it a serious relationship or a loose one like Satsuki?" Eri said while adjusting her gla.s.ses.

"WHAT!! MY RELATIONSHIP ISN'T LOOSE!!" Satsuki was mad.

"How many times have you changed your boyfriends in recent years?" Eri asked.

"If I'm not, she has changed to 5 boyfriends in recent years," Nanako said.

Eri looked at her with the expression,'If it is not loose then what?'

Satsuki grumbled but couldn't say anything. Many of her boyfriends were d.i.c.ks, and she was quite a lonely woman. She needed someone by her side.

"We're not talking about her relationship, we're talking about Yaeko here," Nanako cut them.

Eri nodded, "Ever since your husband divorced you, you've been looking at men as if something disgusting, I wonder what kind of man that can melt your heart?"

Yaeko didn't say anything and looked away.

Satsuko shook her head, "She is still stubborn, enough of that, let's start drinking!!" She raised her hands and called the waiter, "four beers for all of us!!"

"I'm not drinking, I have to drive," Eri shook her head.

"Don't be too tight!! This is why you're still separated from your husband," Satsuko said carelessly.

"YOU!!! I WANT TO STRANGLE YOU!!" Eri was angry.

"YOU!! LET'S GO!! I WANT TO STRANGLE YOU TOO!!!" Satsuki was also angry.

"Stop!! Stop!! Don't fight!!" Nanako tried to pacify them. She was the only one who had a very warm family in this group.

"SHUT UP!!" Eri and Satsuki said at the same time.

"Yo-you!! LET'S FIGHT THEN!!" Nanako was the one who had the most temper among them.

Yaeko ma.s.saged her temple, her friends had always been like this. She smiled at least this could help release her stress.

Yaeko started to get drunk. Her face was blushing because she drank too many beers.

"Yaeko, tell us about the man that makes you interested," Satsuki still didn't give up.

Eri and Nanako also looked quite curious at her. They knew that after Yaeko got drunk it was easier for her to talk about something.

Yaeko didn't say anything and called someone.

They started to get closer to her to hear their conversation.

"Yaeko, what's wrong?" They heard a deep voice on the phone.

"Yuuki!! Heheeheeh!!!" They nodded,'So his name is Yuuki.' They became even more curious with him.

"Yaeko, you're drunk!!!"

"No!! I'm not drunk!!!"

"Stay there, I'll pick you up."

"Yeaaahh!! I'll wait for you!!" Yaeko answered and slept on the table.

Nanako, Eri, and Satsuki looked at Yaeko with a strange expression.

"We need to wait for this man to come," Satsuki said with a serious expression.

"I'll beat him up if he tries to hurt or play with Yaeko," Nanako said while clenching her fist.

"Don't worry, you can beat him as much as you want, I'll help you on the court," Eri said while adjusting her gla.s.ses.

They only needed to wait for this 'Yuuki' to come and decide whether he was suitable for her or not.
