When Love Hurts 26
*********************

“Then, everybody agree with the plan?”

“I’m not sure, Mako-chan” answered Eri “What if they catch us?”

“That’s a risk but we have to know what’s happening” said Makoto serious “We have to keep the group safe”

All the girls looked at her but just Reina dared to say what everybody was thinking.

“Oh, come on. You’re not doing this for our safety” said her with a derogatory tone “You just want to know why your beloved Yoshizawa-san forgot your existence”

Makoto was going to say something but Tanaka continued.

“If you want to keep the group safe we should talk about them, too” she said pointing at Ai-chan and Gaki-san.

Everybody turned to look at the girls.

“Why… why are you saying that?” asked Risa.

“’Cause I couldn’t sleep two nights ago because of your little party”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about” said Ai-chan trying to seem indifferent.

“No?” Reina began to speak with her mocking voice “Maybe the words ‘oh, yes!’, ‘harder!’, ‘don’t stop, Risa!” refresh your memory?”

The two girls looked at each other and her faces turned deep red

“I told you to be quiet!” complained Gaki-san.

“Hey, it’s something I can’t control, ok?”

“Then next time I’ll gag you!”

“Really?” asked Takahashi in a playful voice.

Makoto shook her head and decided to return to the main theme.

“Well, eh…” she cleaned her throat before speak again “We’ll see later what we do with those two. Right now, Yoshizawa-san is the priority”

From the other side of the studio, three silhouettes were looking at the younger girls with curiosity.

“What are they talking about so seriously?”

“Something about discover Yoshizawa’s dark side” joked Yuko.

“Yossi has a dark side?” asked Abe surprised.

Nakazawa crossed her arms and smiled.

“Nah, they’re just curious about Yossi’s private life. She’s been playing with fire lately and they’re worried”

“You know what’s going on, don’t you?” said Kei.

“She’s in love, and that’s dangerous”

“Rika-chan again?”

“Miki”

Natsumi was turning her head from Kei to Yuko trying to follow the conversation but she was already lost.

“Wait, who’s in love with whom?”

“Yossi and Miki” answered Nakazawa “But I’m sure that something happened with Rika-chan and that’s why I’m so worried”

“Anybody saw her since she left the rehearsal three days ago” said Kei, who was beginning to worry too “Maybe we should call her”

“I don’t want to interfere. Not yet”

Yuko was more worried than she wanted to say. She could feel that there was something big behind Rika’s behaviour.

“I hope that Yossi’s able to handle this…”
