Start By Becoming A Mangaka-Chapter 41: Shuraba

It was time to go home, Yuuki had told Chiaki that he would come to Hitotose tomorrow and ready for his first job.

"It's okay," Chiaki nodded. She didn't mind, after all, she was already happy to have Yuuki as their pianist.

"I'll prepare you the best clothes for tomorrow!" Miyuki was excited that she could dress up Yuuki as she likes.

"I'll be waiting for you!" Hina-chan was excited.

"Please, bring a lot of snacks!!" Kuina was drooling.

"Mooo!! Kuu-chan!! Don't be so unladylike!!" Miyuki reprimanded her.

Everyone was laughing at their interaction.

Yukana was really happy that she could see another side of Yuuki. She was surprised that he could play piano so well.

'His song is great,' Yukana tried to imagine if they were on a date and Yuuki would play piano for her in front of many people. It would be so romantic. She couldn't wait for her date on the next holiday.

"How many girls have you make fall in love with this song?" Uomi asked.

"No way, I'm still single," Yuuki was smiling.

"You and your lies," Uomi said.

"Who is lying? Do I look like that? Do I look like a man who has make girls crying?" Yuuki felt hurt.

Uomi didn't say anything and turned her head, "Well, you don't like someone who is trying to hurt a girl's hurt." She said softly but Yuuki could hear her.

"Yeah, I will love them," Yuuki said loud so Uomi could hear him.

"Idiot," Uomi left him with a smile on her face but Yuuki couldn't see it.

Yuuki and Ranko were walking together. They were planning to ruin his date with Yukana. He felt stupid to ruin his own date together with a girl. He looked at her who had been quiet all the time. He didn't know why but ever since he played piano, she had been quiet with him. He decided to tease her little.

"What is it? Are you starting to fell in love with me?" Yuuki teased her.

Ranko who heard him twitched her lips. She was thinking about her own feeling but this hateful guy suddenly became so narcissism.

"What? Are you really fall in love me?" Yuuki tried to make a surprised expression on his face. He wanted to tease her.

"WHO THE HELL FALL IN LOVE WITH YOU!!" Ranko shouted. She couldn't hold it again, she wanted to fight him. She wanted to strangle him but stopped when she saw him smiling gently at her.

"Hmm, this is the Ranko I knew, you're not suited to be so quiet, I like you more like this," Yuuki smiled.

Ranko was blushing but her tan skin made it hard for someone to see it, "YOU IDIOT!! HURRY UP AND GO TO YOUR HOUSE!!!" She left him and walked in front of him. She didn't want him to see her blushing.

"Wait, don't be in hurry!" Yuuki followed her.

Both of them were walking while arguing to each other, they felt really strangely comfortable with each other.

This was a really great day for both of them.

Arrived at his apartment, Yuuki brought her to his apartment, not his manga studio. He felt that he only used his apartment for sleeping. He needed to use it for something else.

"You can sit there, do you want tea, coffee, juice, tea, or water?" Yuuki asked.

"Give me a juice!" Ranko sat on his chair and looking around his apartment. It was her first time to come to boy's house. Even though she was a gal but she was still v.i.r.g.i.n and his experiences with men were zero. She had only been in love with Yukana after all and didn't have any interest with men.

It was until Ranko met Yuuki though. She felt a strange connection between her and him. She didn't know yet what was her feeling was. She needed to confirm it further before she could make a conclusion.

"Here is your juice," Yuuki brought her a glass.

"Thank you," Ranko drank it.

"Well, I think, we didn't need a plan for my date with Yukana," Yuuki said while sipping his coffee.

Ranko was startled when she heard him, "HAAAA??? WHY?" She was confused.

"I mean, it's just to make my date failed, right? A man who didn't make a plan on his date already a failure in front of the girls," Yuuki said simply.

Ranko also realized her mistakes, they didn't need to prepare a plan at all.

"That's true," Ranko nodded, "But, that's weak! I'm sure Yukana has a good feeling on you!" She shook his head, Yuuki's charm was too high.

"Hmm, what about late? Coming late to the date is also considering a failure, right?" Yuuki said.

"Good! Good!" Ranko was happy, "That's it! You don't need to make a plan and need to come late during your date!!" She was excited and couldn't wait for him to go on his date.

Yuuki shook his head and could only sigh. He massaged his temple to try to appease his headache. It was his mistake to promise Ranko.

They were talking to each other while laughing. They were in the middle of a discussion about a bad date. It was a very funny topic for both of them. They were laughing very hard until they heard someone called Yuuki.

"Yuuki, are you home? I heard a voice from your room," Someone opened the door.

"Oh, Utaha, I'm home," Yuuki said.

"Who are you talking with?" Utaha opened his door and saw a tan-skin girl was so close to Yuuki. She felt her heart uncomfortable.

Ranko was also uncomfortable to see a beautiful girl suddenly appeared in front of his door.

"Let me introduce you, this is Utaha, she is my neighbor," Yuuki introduced, "And this is my classmates, her name is Ranko." He knew that something would happen, but at least he needed to treat them the same.

"Hello, Ranko-san," Utaha said simply.

"Hello, Utaha," Ranko nodded.

This was the first meeting between two rival.
