Among the girls in their circle, only Kikuchi remained nothing more than just a ‘friend’ of Hina in my eyes. Even though her hobby was on the dubious side, her presence in their circle was kinda similar to Arisa-senpai and Shizu. She joined to accompany her friend.
Over the years, if Shizu became somewhat of a leader, both Arisa-senpai and Kikuchi became the voice of reason in their group. They’re not at all attracted to any of the boys there so they could see things objectively.
They’re aware of who likes who. But that was before I showed up and put a wedge in their circle.
When Shizu started coming to their club to walk with them after school in a bid to stabilize their circle, I told this girl and Tadano that they’re going to hate me more when I tell them the truth.
With Kikuchi run
