MIRAI HARMONY

CHAPTER 13

Early in the morning inside his dorm, Hakimi sits in front of his computer, looking at the design. 'That should give extra power for my room but I don't think this hostel can handle that power surge' thinks Hakimi. He sits on his bed. 'Beside to have that kind of power, I might need to make a correct energy to do so' thinks Hakimi. A few knocks on the door as he walks towards the door and opens it. Naomi stands in front of him, wearing a orange and yellow dress. "You're up early," said Hakimi. "You're not shower yet?" asked Naomi. "Too cold. I may shower later," said Hakimi with a shrug. The light blonde sighs as she pushes him and walks in. "Hey, what gives?" asked Hakimi, looking at Naomi that opens his closet. "We're going out so you better take a bath now," said Naomi as she still looking inside his closet. "Where?" asked Hakimi. "Just around the town. The last time you did that alone, you didn't explore much," said Naomi, still looking inside his closet. "I still need to go for my winter clothes shopping since I don't have one aside winter uniform," said Hakimi. Naomi looks at him. "That's explain the reason you never go out on weekends. Then, it's decided," said Naomi. "What?" asked Hakimi. "We're buying your winter clothes now," said Naomi. "Can you wait until noon when it is not that cold?" asked Hakimi. "Nope, we have to go now," said Naomi as she picks up sweatshirt and long pants. "The shop won't be open until 2 hours later," said Hakimi. "Don't worry, by the time we get there, the shop will be open and we can find the clothes there," said Naomi as she pushes him towards the bathroom and hand him the clothes that she has chosen.

Meanwhile, Tomori in her own red sweatshirt and brown pants jumps happily towards Hakimi's room. 'I really want to spend my time with him. I wonder what I want to do with him' thinks Tomori as she opens his door to see Naomi inside. "What are you doing here?" asked Tomori. "Date shopping with him. He needs winter clothing," said Naomi. "Wait, he doesn't have winter clothes?" asked Tomori, shocked. The bathroom door opens as Hakimi walks out. He looks at the girls. "Riru? What are you doing here?" asked Hakimi. "Originally, hanging out with you but maybe joining you and Naobo for winter clothes shopping," said Tomori. He sighs again.

At cafe, Sayuri, Liyu, Nako and Nagisa sit on the seat near the window. "Where is Naomi? She should be here by now," said Nako. "Where is she anyway?" asked Nagisa. "She said something about waking him up," said Sayuri. "Looks like she wants to give him a good morning kiss," said Liyu. Nagisa sighs. "You sure like thinking weird eh, Liyu," said Nagisa as the grey haired giggles.

At the bus stop, Hakimi, Tomori and Naomi walk out from the bus. "Time to find your winter clothes," said Tomori. "And if you want, you can choose undergarment for us," said Naomi with a smile. "Wait, yours grow too?" asked Tomori. Hakimi sighs. "Let just find the winter clothes I need," said Hakimi. Naomi and Tomori giggle as the trio walk towards the nearby boutique and walk in. "Okay honey, let's see which winter clothes you want," said Tomori. Hakimi looks at the row of winter clothes. "How much all this outfit cost?" asked Hakimi. "Darling, let us worry about the cost. You just find something that interest you," said Naomi. 'Might as well find the cheepest then' thinks Hakimi as he begins to search the outfits.

At student council room, Arisa leans against her chair.

*Flashback*

"Clique competition?" asked Arisa. "It is a good idea. Hopefully we can have a truce then," said Nanaka. "Who will be in this competition?" asked Rikako. "All of us. We each join the competition," said Anju. "Cooking competition, live stream competition, moe appeal competition, music knowledge competition, outfit competition, endurance competition, writing lyric competition, School Idol knowledge competition and radiance competition," read Shuka. "Let's just hope Rikyako doesn't join the cooking competition since she will buy it from the market instead of cooking it," teased Arisa. "Hey," called Rikako, angry. "Jokes aside, how do we do this?" asked Nanaka. "Ne Aikyan, how is your stream holding?" asked Kanako, looking at Aika. "Good, my little demon always prepare to serve me anytime I need," said Aika.

*End flashback*

Arisa sighs. 'It will be disadvantages to most of us since we only can join once' thinks Arisa. "Thinking about the competition?" Arisa looks at Yoshino that walks in. "Yeah, I mean why him as a judge?" asked Arisa. "Because he can help us with this and he is not part of any cliques," said Yoshino. "How your cliques handle the competition?" asked Arisa. "Soramaru, Emitsun and Rippi eager to join the competition but they can't decide which one. Kussun is doing her card reading, determined our luck. Others, not so sure," said Yoshino. "My clique also wondering about that too," said Arisa.

Back to the trio, Hakimi sighs as he sits on the nearby bench, feeling glares from the female customers. "Remind me again why I need to be here?" asked Hakimi. Naomi peaks from behind the curtain. "Because this is the privilege that only you allowed to have. We want you and only you to see that," said Naomi as she returns back into the changing room. He sighs. "This is embarrassing," muttered Hakimi. "You never have problem with us in this situation," said Tomori inside the changing room. "Because we were little and didn't know better," said Hakimi. His best friends giggle. "You'll get used to it," said Naomi.

Later at night, Hakimi sits in front of the computer checking the design. Naomi and Tomori sleep on his bed. He sighs as he looks at his best friends. 'I am not sure how I can handle both girls in my life' thinks Hakimi.
