Confessing your feelings should be done openly and honestly

At this moment, in a certain apartment in Chiyoda Ward.

Umemiya Hiro lay on the sofa, watching the promotional live broadcast of My Friend on the tablet screen with a solemn expression.

As expected, that junior named Teraoin Hane was indeed a thorny trouble.

Not only did she have the advantage of being a peer with Junior-san, but she also partnered with Junior-san several times in succession, just like herself.

It seemed that her offensive needed to be a bit more fierce.

Thinking this in her heart, Umemiya Hiro’s fingertips gently caressed a certain person on the screen.

“Was the opportunity for the first live broadcast snatched away by someone else… But it doesn’t matter; I have other advantages.”

Umemiya Hiro murmured in a low voice, the corners of her lips sketching a dangerous arc.

At the shooting scene, Kazakami Ritsu, who successfully completed the impromptu performance, clapped her hands happily.

‘Very good, my character didn’t die this time. One day I will wash away the stereotype of those guys!’

With such a beautiful vision, Kazakami Ritsu joyfully read out the bullet comment that had just been selected.

[I would like to ask you two, was this collaboration pleasant? Would you want to collaborate again?]

Seeing this question, Kazakami Ritsu exchanged a glance with Teraoin Hane beside her.

“This question seems to have an answer visible without answering, right? What do you think, Teraoin-san?”

“I-I think it’s better to respond, after all, it’s a question from a supporter of My Friend.”

The two exchanged a sentence first, then the thoughtful Kazakami Ritsu reached out her hand directly to Teraoin Hane.

“Teraoin-san, can you lend me your hand for a moment?”

“Eh?!”

Teraoin Hane looked somewhat helplessly at Kazakami Ritsu reaching out to her. After struggling for a long time, she still offered her right hand.

The moment Kazakami Ritsu held her hand, Teraoin Hane’s body trembled slightly, and she lowered her head with a completely red face.

Kazakami Ritsu held Teraoin Hane’s hand and faced the direction of the camera very frankly.

“Here, I can hold Teraoin-san’s hand, but you guys can only watch. How pitiful! Small fry, small fry!”

Looking at Kazakami Ritsu’s arrogant expression, people watching this scene behind screens clenched their fists one after another.

‘Damn it! I really want to beat this guy up! No, we have to find a way to make her eat humble pie.’

Thinking this, during the extraction segment for the last question bullet comment, the audience began to spam the same content neatly.

Then, while suppressing laughter, the staff selected one from the almost identical group of bullet comments.

After seeing the content of the bullet comment clearly, the originally arrogant smile on Kazakami Ritsu’s face instantly froze.

[If you two wanted to take the initiative to confess, what kind of method would you adopt and what would you say?]

‘No? You guys are sore losers, right!’

Looking at the countless identical bullet comments, Kazakami Ritsu clenched her fists.

“Teraoin-san, I answered the first few questions. Should it be…”

Kazakami Ritsu, unwilling to admit defeat so easily, cast a look of plea for help to her partner.

Teraoin Hane received the signal transmitted by her partner and mustered the courage to stand up.

“P-please don’t bully Kazakami-san. If it’s a confession, let me…”

“Wait a minute! I still can’t bear for you to take the blame for me, Teraoin-san.”

After an intense ideological struggle, Kazakami Ritsu gritted her teeth and stood up following her.

She reached out and blocked Teraoin Hane behind her.

“Since it’s a confession, of course, it has to be said uprightly in front of the object of confession.”

Saying this, Kazakami Ritsu took a deep breath and held Teraoin Hane’s hands with both hands.

“Akira… before you leave here and go to reality, I have something I want to say to you.”

Looking at Kazakami Ritsu, who entered the role in a second, Teraoin Hane felt her heartbeat beginning to accelerate uncontrollably.

Thump, thump.

“Actually, regarding Akira, I have always, always liked you very much! I like you!”

After shouting the last sentence loudly, Kazakami Ritsu saw her partner suddenly fall backward with steam rising from her head.

Kazakami Ritsu hurriedly took a step forward, reaching out to support Teraoin Hane’s back.

Looking at their subtle posture, Producer Kurau winked at the photographer beside her.

‘Isn’t this ready-made cover material? Remember to use this image as the cover later.’

Understanding, the photographer slowly zoomed in.

At this moment, the bullet comments had fallen into the joy of victory.

[Teraoin-san, your sacrifice is valuable!]

[Boo hoo hoo, Teraoin-san was sunk. The Death God is truly a woman of heavy sins!]

[Tears in eyes. I’ve recorded the confession just now.]

Kazakami Ritsu put Teraoin Hane back on the chair, pinching her philtrum for quite a while before bringing her partner back.

“Producer Kurau! That was almost a performance accident just now! Aren’t you going to do something about it!”

After Teraoin Hane recovered, Kazakami Ritsu lay back on the chair with a haggard face.

Producer Kurau smiled and shook her head, raising a sign that read “Push the next program.”

After recovering for a while, Kazakami Ritsu picked up the microphone again with a bitter face.

“Then after a brief performance accident, let’s enter the next segment. Let me see…”

Saying this, Kazakami Ritsu pretended to look at the script and lowered her head.

However, the staff member who had already prepared the lottery box appeared in the frame.

‘Tsk, why appear so untimely?’

After complaining in her heart, Kazakami Ritsu resigned herself to fate.

‘Since I can’t resist… then let’s start enjoying it!’

“Here comes the familiar lottery segment again. Teraoin-san, are you okay now?”

Kazakami Ritsu said with a solemn expression, and Teraoin Hane beside her also seemed to have successfully resurrected.

As the host, Kazakami Ritsu reached out and fumbled around in the lottery box labeled “Identity.”

In the next second, she took out two small balls from inside.

Written on the two small balls were the two identities: “Girl passionately in love” and “Decadent female president who lost her life goal.”

Kazakami Ritsu gasped, looking hopefully at Teraoin Hane, who was responsible for drawing the scene.

‘Partner, you must draw a normal scene!’

Seeing Kazakami Ritsu’s hopeful expression, the bullet comments started playing tricks again.

[If God plays the decadent female president… Damn, what kind of masterpiece passed down through generations is this?]

[God! Please play a female president that makes people unable to resist wanting to care for her!]

[I think God wouldn’t let Teraoin-san play the decadent female president, right?]

[Girl passionately in love x Decadent female president? How to Save My Decadent Boss? currently broadcasting to great acclaim!]

Kazakami Ritsu quickly noticed the bullet comments on the screen behind her that had started playing tricks. She actually had no opinion on which role she played.

Whether it was the girl passionately in love or the female boss, she should be the one taking the initiative.

‘Hmm… absolutely right!’

With Teraoin-san’s personality, how could she pose a threat to herself? Ahaha…
