Sewing Buddy~

Yesterday I got a mission to invite Sanju for a sleepover, which I did who wouldn't when you get 2 agility stats instead of 1, this time she had a blast trying on my clothes instead. She was surprised when she couldn't see any tags that indicated where I got my clothes from, so I just let her know they were all in fact handmade.

Currently, I was just laying in bed, my whole body aching from the workout from yesterday, didn't help that one of Senju's legs was on top of me and of course, Cupid joined the cuddle pile someday under the night. I reached for my phone that I left under my pillow and saw that Souya did indeed message me, mentioning we could go out together on Monday.

'Which time and where?' was my message back to him and then I saved his contact as Blue Cotton Candy.

I scoffed over Senju's leg and started to get out of bed. Cupid woke up at that moment, so he demanded I carry him downstairs for his breakfast time. As soon I came down I saw that mom was making pancakes, quite unusual since she mostly made Japanese-style food.

"Oh Michi, I thought you would want some, so I got a recipe from a friend." Wow yes, I soon as I woke up I did, in fact, had a craving for fluffy pancakes with jam.

"Thanks," I said as I decided to take out the plates, to prepare the breakfast table.

"How about watching a movie together today?" That did sound like a delightful thing to do to start this slow morning.

"After breakfast?" I asked which he agreed upon.

"Awesome, I will ask Senju if she wants to join." it was Saturday after all, she couldn't possibly have that much to do?

"I'm happy you managed to make some female friends as well." dad said while looking up from his newspaper.

"At least I have one female friend from my school so that's all good for me." Then I remembered how Souya wanted to meet up.

"Also I will be meeting someone on Monday." I usually let mom know where I was, so she didn't have to worry when I didn't come home right back from school.

"Who are you meeting this time?"

"Remember the twins-" before I could finish she said.

"Oh the blue-haired kid, could it be a date?" well he never specified it was a date.

"No, it's just a simple hangout." mother gave me a troubled look.

"Do you perhaps still think about the guy that rejected you?" well I never mentioned how I got rejected a second time.

"Well I got rejected again so... you could put it like that." she couldn't believe it.

"I mean it's hard when he's in the same class as me." And so easily teased.

"Yes, that would be difficult then." Mom said and dropped this topic, that's when Senju came down.

We ate breakfast and watched a movie that so happened to be Mean Girls, Senju left after that, and I had time to think about the cosplay I wanted to make. I thought about all the manga and anime I read, but it was hard to settle for anything since it felt like I had to make something that existed in this timeframe.

"Tokyo Mew Mew will do just fine, let's just go and purchase the fabric," I told my parents what I was up to and went to a fabric store.

"This is harder than I imagined," I said looking around presumably looking lost, which is most likely why he approached me.

"You look troubled do you need help?" I wasn't sure why Mitsuya decided to talk with me when he wasn't even an employer of this store, but maybe he just wanted to help a certain newbie.

"I was just wondering which fabric would be the best for my cosplay." I showed him the picture of Ichigo and he just nodded looked around and found something actually decent looking.

"Oh, thanks you're a lifesaver." A hero that will bring my desired stats much quicker than I anticipated. Ah, yes the so similar sound I will never fail to ignore.

'Would you rather ask Takashi Mitsuya about Tokyo Manji Gang or ask if you can buy him dinner in exchange for his help.' For once there weren't any violent tasks from the system, but why would I ask him questions about his gang? Or right he was in his gang outfit, I haven't realized that but I decided to go with the second option, I wasn't too interested to hear about the Toman business.

"Since you helped me out, can I buy you food in exchange?" Yes, he didn't have to accept since the mission only wanted me to ask him about it unless this mission had hidden requirements.

"It's alright." I decided to persist since the stats still haven't arrived yet.

"I insist." he backed away as I narrowed my eyes on him.

"Wait do you perhaps have no time today?" I asked as he nodded his head.

"I see, that complicates things." I whipped out my phone.

"Then just give me your number and we can see each other another day." he looked so confused but gave me his number anyway.

"What is your name?" I asked, to which his response was.

"Takashi Mitusya." I nodded and without realizing I said out loud my thoughts.

"Shall save you as Taka-chan." He looked like I just mugged him out of his number, but he probably was confused as to why I had already given him a nickname.

"Do you mind if I ask you some more questions about sewing, in text messages?" he shook his head.

"Great, the name's Michi by the way, Michi Hirabayashi. Considering you're busy I will leave you to it." I went to purchase the fabric he suggested to use that's when my promised stat finally arrived.

"Now I need to figure out how to get a job at a maid cafe. Do I just walk in and ask if they have any slots open?" Well, it wouldn't hurt to try. So I dragged my ass to one of them and actually asked for the manager.

"By any chance could you let me work here part-time?" there was no way this could be so easy right? The manager scanned me from top to toe.

"Perfect!" what what? I looked at him confused.

"One of our girls recently quit, so we were about to post a job advertisement, but this is easier. Do you have any experience in this field?" I shook my head.

"But I'm a fast learner."Would they believe it?

"Great just come in tomorrow we will sort everything out." Was getting a part-time job supposed to be this effortless? This felt suddenly like a walk in the park.

"At which time." he gave it some thought.

"Come at 10 we brief you about the contract." Wow, was he even aware I was like 13? Presumably because of my height he thought I was older, if he got disappointed tomorrow it was on him.

So I returned home to finish my cosplay project I would get those 5 stats today, but when I was working on it, I got a message from Keisuke, it was around evening time and the picture was of some fire.

"Did he really just set a car on fire and send me the evidence?"

'Would you rather compliment Keisuek Baji on the picture or prank call him?' Ah yes pranking I was off to ruin his day. I gave him the call and the first thing I said was.

"We've been trying to reach you about your motorbike extended warranty." he just sounded confused at the other end.

"What what? Michi what are you on about?" I just laughed at his reaction but this wasn't the only thing I thought about.

"You sent me evidence of your crimes, see you behind bars stupid!" and I hung upon him. I never thought that he would blow my phone with further phone calls and text messages. Was he really believing what I said? I just shrugged and muted my phone, but at some point, I picked up because the vibrations never stopped.

"What?" I asked but it wasn't Keisuke on the other end.

"No! Don't send Baji-san to jail." was Chifuyu crying? I just stayed silent.

"I knew you were trouble, a lawyer's daughter would also be uptight with the rules." I scratched my head.

"Are you dumb for real or this is some sort of prank?" Chifuyu just got silent on the other lane.

"You're not planning to?" he asked carefully.

"Geez relax, I'm not sure what got you so emotional today but use some of your brain juices please, I'm also his friend stupid, like I would send him to jail for something like this." I shook my head not believing this outrageous outcome of a single prank.
