Mary turned off the hairdryer as she can feel her blonde hair was already dried enough. She smelled the pajamas that she was wearing, it was Ririka's pajamas, and it smelled like her. The aroma of strawberry and raspberry that making her addicted

She quickly walked down the stairs and goes straight to the kitchen as she can smell the scent of something even better come from there

"Hey, honey, what are you doing?" Mary asked and stand next to the platinum hair girl

"It is raining outside so I think you may like some espresso" Ririka said. She made the final touch and hand the cup of espresso to Mary

Mary giggled at the cuteness of the espresso that has a picture of a panda "So you are a barista now huh?"

Ririka blushed "Yeah, kinda"

"Okay let me try it" Mary took a sip of the espresso. Her eyes widened because of the taste. It was really good! "Riri, you have to teach me how to make this!"

"S-sure" Ririka took the portafilter and gave it to Mary "First, you have to clean this, it will make the espresso taste over-extracted"

Mary nodded and do as she was told. Ririka continued giving the instruction and Mary will listen carefully so that she will do it correctly

After brewing the espresso, Mary wanted to learn how to make the beautiful picture too so Ririka teach her how to make the simple one which was the heart shape

The picture didn't turn out well but at least she tried. Mary served it to Ririka with a beautiful smile on her face

"Woah this is so good for a beginner!" Ririka said but Mary didn't seem to pay attention. The blonde girl was starring at her lips

Suddenly, Mary grabbed Ririka's waist. She pulled the other girl closer to her body. She looked at Ririka's blue eyes. She looked at her lips and back to her eyes again. Mary grabbed the other girl face gently then slowly lean in and kiss the platinum hair girl

Ririka gasped as Mary broke the kiss. Her mind was blank as the reaction to what just happened

"I- I'm sorry. It just that, there are some espresso milk on your lips" Mary explained in a nervous tone

"I- it's okay..." Ririka said. Both of them were shocked as the doorbell rang. The platinum hair girl ran to open the door

"Ririka!" Kirari walked in, her eyes were cold, hard, and flinty "The guy has given up on you, and now explain to me everything!"

"I-" Ririka lost her inability to speak

"Hey, Riri, who was that?" Mary goes to them, she gulped as she saw Kirari

"Ahh... Saotome? So this is the reason why you didn't show up that night?" Kirari glared "What are you doing here Mary?! After what you did to Ririka, I think it's good for you to leave!"

"Stop it Kirari!" Ririka yelled "It's up to me. It's my life, not yours. I'm so done being your shadow and follow all of your orders!"

Kirari took a deep breath"You know I just want to help, I mean she left you remember?!"

"Yeah I know that but everyone deserves a second chance!"

Kirari sighed "Well then..." She looked to Mary right in the eyes "You lucky she gave you another chance but there will be no more in the future and I don't mind getting my hand dirty. Remember that!" She warned before walked away

Mary and Ririka looked at each other in relief. That was kinda scary but in the end, both of them bark a laughed thinking about their scared face before

The lockdown has driven me crazy, my family keeps comparing me to my cousin since I was 6 so I have to study hard, I was studying like hell, woke up at three, and keep pushing my self but in the end, the school canceled it.

I hope that you guys were doing just fine and if you went through depression please talk to someone or you can hit me in the message. It will be an honor to help. I mean it, I don't want you guys to be sad ')
