Start By Becoming A Mangaka 136 Meeting Childhood Friend

But both Yuuki and Yukari didn't really care. They thought walking together like this while holding hands and talking about something pointless felt strangely fun to them.

Many men cursed him how to get such a beautiful girl as his girlfriend.

Many girls were also curious about how the girl could get such a man beside her.

They walked together until they arrived at Hitotose cafe.

"Welcome!!" Miyuki was greeting a very cute smile until she saw Yuuki was holding hands with a beautiful girl. "Yu-Yuuki! I don't think cheating is good!" She knew that Yuuki was Ranko's boyfriend and she saw him holding hands with other girls.

"Don't worry, Ranko knows about it," Yuuki said.

"What???" Miyuki was dumbfounded. She had never thought that Ranko would know about this. She was wondering whether Yuuki would do polygamy. She had heard that in some town there was news about Hare-kon.

Miyuki didn't hope for a hare-kon but if it could make her be tied together with her loved one, she started to think that Hare-kon wasn't that bad.

Yuuki tried to call Miyuki but she didn't respond to him.

"Well, let's enter," Yukari nodded in response. She was quite surprised to see this cute girl. She knew Miyuki was after all Miyuki was quite popular as the cutest girl in their school. She didn't expect her to work here.

"Yuuki, you come!" Kuina was excited to see him and wanted to hug him like usual but stopped when she saw an unfamiliar girl beside him, "This is?"

Yukari wanted to introduce herself but stopped when she heard a voice.

"She is Yukari-senpai, she is in her 3rd year, you need to be polite, Kuu-chan," Chiaki said to Kuina.

"It's okay, I didn't expect to see you here, Hagino-san," Yukari said.

Chiaki was very famous in the school as the star and ace of the drama club.

Yukari was wondering how many beautiful girls were around him.

Chiaki looked at Yuuki who was holding Yukari's hand. Her lips were twitching and asked, "Yuuki, is this your girlfriend?" Her tone was quite bad.

"GIRLFRIEND!!" Hinchan who was hiding from the new girl was startled. She would have never expected him to bring a girlfriend here.

Yukari wanted to say'no' but stopped since she was too embarra.s.sed to say anything.

"You're wrong, she is not my girlfriend," Yuuki said with a helpless expression. He wanted to make her become his girlfriend but he only knew her for the past few days.

"Yes, he is right," Yukari said with a smile, though she felt quite disappointed.

"Not a girlfriend? Then why are both of you holding hands together?" Chiaki asked.

"We're training," Yuuki said.

"Training?" Kuina and Miyuki said at the same time. They were confused about what kind of training that needed someone to hold their hands together.

"What kind of training?" Chiaki asked.

Yuuki started to tell them about 'Amateur Music Tournament' and they were practicing to feel how someone fell in love so she could sing better in the tournament.

Chiaki nodded. She also had this kind of training when she did her drama. She needed to be immersed in her characters but still, her heart still felt sour looking at them.

"Oh, training," Hinchan didn't think much and felt relief since she knew they were only practiced.

"Hinchan, how is your practice?" Hinchan would become the main heroine in the drama that would be held in the future. He was quite worried for her since he knew how was her personality.

"Umm, it's going well, everyone is helping me, even Toritari too," Hinchan said with smiled.

"Kyuu!! Kyuu!" Suddenly a yellow bird appeared from Hinchan's hair.

Yuuki was still wondering if Hinchan had some superpower to talk with an animal.

"Yes, Hinchan is working hard, I also helped her!!" Kuina said.

"That's good, Kuina, I'll bring you some food later," Yuuki patted her head.

"Yay!!" It was quite easy to make her happy.

They talked for a while until it was his time to do his performance.

"Wait for me here," Yuuki looked at Yukari.

Yukari nodded at him, "Yes." She was quite happy to meet many new people in here. Everyone was very nice to her and this cafe was quite near to her apartment. She also could hear him play piano. She started to think she should come here often and studied here.

Chiaki would be happy if she knew that she would have another prospective customer.

Ran and Sonoko decided to come to Hitotose cafe since they had heard this cafe was pretty famous for their piano performance during this time.

"Ran, hurry up! I heard that their pianist is very handsome!" Sonoko was quite excited to see a handsome man.

"Moo!! Don't be in hurry Sonoko!!" Ran was helpless with her friend. She actually didn't want to come but Sonoko forced her. She was actually quite lonely to wait for Shinichi her childhood friend who was on his journey to solve many cases in the world.

Ran wanted to ask him whether she or cases were more important to him.

"Maybe this pianist will be able to make you forget Shinichi," Sonoko teased her.

"Don't tease me, Sonoko!" Ran shook her head at her friends.

They entered the cafe and as expected it was quite full.

"It's full," Ran said.

Sonoko didn't want to give up and looked around. She found a beautiful girl who was sitting alone there.

"Let's go, let's ask her to sit together," Sonoko pulled her hand.

"Moo, Sonoko!"

Sonoko looked at the beautiful girl with yellow hair, "h.e.l.lo, can we sit together?" But stunned when she saw her, "Yukari?"

"Sonoko?" Yukari was also stunned.

"Wow!! It's been a while we meet each other!" Sonoko hugged her.

"Yes, it's been a while," Yukari was happy to see her childhood friend.

"That's right, let me introduce you this is Ran," Sonoko introduced.

"h.e.l.lo, my name is Ran," Ran didn't expect for Sonoko to meet her friend here.

"Yes, my name is Yukari, nice to meet you," Yukari said.

"What are you doing here, Yukari?" Sonoko asked.

Yukari was blushing, "Hmm, I-I'm on a date."

"What!! Who is your partner!!" Sonoko was surprised to hear her childhood friend to date someone.

"There he is," Yukari said while looking at the stage.

Ran and Sonoko turned their heads and dumbfounded to see him there.

'Yuuki!!!' They didn't expect for her dating partner would be him.

Sonoko gnashed her teeth, she needed to teach him a lesson so he wouldn't be playing with her childhood friend but stopped when she saw Yukari's excited expression. She needed to wake up her friend before she was cheated by him.

Ran was quite surprised to see him here. She was curious and wanted to know whether he could play or not. She was also quite p.i.s.sed to hear him dating another girl.

Sonoko and Ran would definitely tell Ranko about this but stopped when they remembered about Utaha. They could talk about it later but now they wanted to know about his performance.
