Truth or Lie?

"Sorry I'm late."

Kaguya stepped out of the car and immediately saw Chika and Moeha standing by the roadside waiting for her.

"It's okay, Kaguya-san!"

Seeing Kaguya walking towards them, Chika took the initiative to run and hug her tightly.

"Fujiwara-san..."

Although they were good friends, Kaguya still couldn't adapt to Chika's enthusiasm.

Chika, who hugged her for a long time before letting go, explained in a low voice, "I haven't seen Kaguya-san in a long time, so I'm a little excited."

"No problem."

"It's been a while, Kaguya-chan."

As Kaguya finished speaking, Moeha approached and hugged her left arm.

"It's been a while, Moeha-san."

She really didn't understand why Moeha called her Kaguya-chan.

But it wasn't a big deal, so she just let it be and let her call her that.

"Kaguya-chan, usually you don't go shopping with us, but now you're willing to take the initiative to go shopping with us. I'm so happy." Moeha looked at her with a bright smile.

"Um."

Honestly, Kaguya wasn't good at dealing with this, so she could only answer like this.

Moeha announced cheerfully, "Then, today's goal is to go shopping for summer clothes with Kaguya-chan!"

"Moeha... Shopping means just looking at the items you want to buy. If you make a large purchase, that's just regular shopping."

Chika, who stood on the other side of Kaguya, took the initiative to remind her.

"Don't worry about details like that~, the most important thing today is to be happy~" Moeha replied nonchalantly.

Kaguya said softly, "Actually, there's something I want to buy."

"Oh? What do you want to buy, Kaguya-chan? Tell me! Maybe I can give you some advice." Moeha shook her arm and asked curiously.

"I know it."

Chika remembered clearly what Kaguya said she wanted to buy when she sent her a message earlier.

"What is it?" Moeha asked.

Feeling her eager gaze, Kaguya said a little shyly, "It's a yukata that I want to wear to the fireworks show."

"This is the first time I'm attending a fireworks show, but I don't have a suitable yukata at home, so I thought of buying one myself."

"Indeed, the yukata to be worn at the fireworks show must be chosen carefully." After hesitating for a moment, Moeha said confidently, "Let me choose the yukata that suits Kaguya-chan the most!"

"Sorry for the trouble." Kaguya thanked her.

Because her clothes were always bought by Hayasaka, she never bought clothes for herself and didn't know how to choose the right one.

That's why she accepted Hayasaka's suggestion and invited Chika to go shopping with her.

Seeing the two of them getting closer, Chika pretended not to understand and said:

"Something like this isn't your responsibility, Moeha. It's better for me, a clothing expert, to help Kaguya-san choose!"

"Then I'll have a problem, Fujiwara-san."

Kaguya didn't doubt Chika's title.

Moreover, she was already used to Chika's chatter.

"There's no need to say anymore, I must help Kaguya-san."

Chika waved her hand and replied without hesitation.

"Then, today's goal is to help Kaguya-chan choose the most suitable yukata for her." Moeha changed her goal.

"Let's go!!!"

Chika said excitedly.

Seeing the two of them so enthusiastic, Kaguya didn't say anything and just followed them both to experience her first shopping experience.

······

Evening, Shinomiya Residence.

"What should I wear?"

After spending the whole morning dealing with important matters and explaining the afternoon's work to the other maids, Hayasaka returned to her room and started choosing clothes.

Considering Ren's dressing habits, she chose a combination of a white shirt and a black pleated skirt.

If nothing happened, the other party would most likely wear a black T-shirt or something similar.

Therefore, it's better to wear something simple.

Besides, she didn't want to waste a lot of time shopping for clothes, so she randomly chose a similar outfit.

Asked the driver to take her to Angel Cafe, the place she often chose as a meeting place.

As she walked into the cafe, she chose the most conspicuous spot to sit as usual, ordered coffee for herself, and began to wait calmly.

After making sure there was still time before the agreed time for the two of them, Hayasaka took out her phone and used this time to deal with some less important matters.

A few moments later, the voice of the headwaiter was heard again.

Hayasaka raised her head and glanced at the door, then she saw Ren walking towards her with a black T-shirt.

(I guessed it right.)

Unfortunately, there was no reward.

"Why do you come so early every time?"

Sitting across from her, Ren finally asked this question.

This time he arrived at this cafe far earlier, but he never expected Hayasaka to arrive here before him.

Putting away her phone, Hayasaka asked with a smile, "Alright... Kamikawa-kun, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"The truth."

Ren made choice without hesitation.

"Because today I'm off and have no work, so I came here earlier." Hayasaka answered.

"I see."

This way could indeed be explained.

"Kamikawa-kun, aren't you curious about my other answer?" Hayasaka reminded with a smile.

Ren took advantage of the situation and said, "Curious."

"The other answer is, because I really want to meet Kamikawa-kun, so I can't wait to come here every time."

"That's a lie."

How could Hayasaka be so eager to meet him?

"Not necessarily, I never said that statement was a lie." Hayasaka retorted.

"But didn't you just ask me if I wanted to hear the truth or a lie? After the honest answer was given, the only answer left was a lie, right?"

Ren didn't understand why she said that.

"You want to hear the truth, but it doesn't mean I have to tell the truth." Hayasaka teased intentionally, "My words are full of lies, so don't believe them easily."
