Chapter 450: Should I also help you with something regarding Hikigaya-kun?
"Yukino, should I come and help you? I can be the drummer," her elder sister said.
Upon hearing her elder sister's words, Yukino was surprised. "Onee-san, are you really offering to help me?"
"Don't say it like that. After all, I am your elder sister. It's okay to help my little sister once in a while," Haruno smiled.
"Besides, I'm quite interested in Hikigaya-kun's piano performance, so let me lend a hand too."
Unfortunately, on the other side, Hachiman just smirked at Haruno's words.
Being a sister complex is being a sister complex. Why bother explaining so much?
However, he was also feeling uneasy at the moment because he had to alter his clothes to fit him perfectly. Saki had no choice but to use her hands to measure his size.
So Hachiman could clearly feel the soft touch of the girl's hands on his body. Moreover, the two of them were very close at the moment, and he could even catch a whiff of the pleasant fragrance emanating from the girl.
Saki also felt that the distance between them was too close. A faint blush appeared on her face involuntarily.
The girl looked up and saw Hachiman's face just inches away from her own.
Coincidentally, at that moment, Hachiman also lowered his head, and their gazes met.
At this moment, both of them could see each other's reflections in their eyes.
It was the first time for Hachiman to observe Saki's face from such a close distance.
Perhaps because they were too close, the girl's pale blue eyes carried a hint of shyness, and the teardrop mole below her right eye added a touch of unique charm to her.
Seeing Hachiman staring directly at her, Saki blushed and lowered her head, speaking softly.
"Hikigaya-kun, please don't look at me like that."
Hachiman quickly realized his gaze was inappropriate and hurriedly averted his eyes.
"Ah, sorry, sorry."
Seeing that Hachiman was no longer staring at her, Saki let out a sigh of relief and continued working on the suit alterations.
Meanwhile, the Yukinoshita sisters had already decided on their performance. Haruno smiled at Shizuka and spoke.
"Shizuka, why don't you join us too?"
"Eh? Me?" Shizuka pointed at herself.
Haruno nodded. "Yes, you. Didn't we form a band together back then?"
"Ah, you mean that." Shizuka recalled the time when she and Haruno formed a band and performed at the cultural festival before Haruno graduated.
"Exactly, so this time, why don't you help us as well?" Haruno suggested.
After thinking for a moment, Shizuka agreed, "Hmm... okay."
Upon seeing her agreement, Haruno smiled and turned to Meguri who had just returned to the backstage.
"Meguri-san, why don't you join us too?"
"Eh, can I really? Haruno-senpai."
Meguri was pleasantly surprised to hear her name called by Haruno. After all, she was a big fan of hers. Being able to perform with her idol would definitely make her happy.
"Of course, we're missing a keyboard player. Meguri-san, do you mind taking on that role?"
Meguri naturally nodded repeatedly, "Yes, I can do it."
Two more members were brought in, and Haruno smiled at her sister.
"Alright, Yukino, now that everyone is here, we just need a vocalist. Do you have any good candidates?"
Yukino thought for a moment, then took the microphone and approached Yui.
"Yui, can you help me? I want you to be the vocalist."
"Huh? Me?"
Hearing the girl's words, Yui was intrigued.
After all, it was the first time Yukino had asked her for help, and she had been waiting for this moment.
"That's right. Didn't Hachiman mention that he wanted both of us to perform? But he didn't say we couldn't perform the same act," Yukino smiled faintly.
"Since both of us will be on stage, it fulfills his request, doesn't it?"
Yui's eyes brightened at these words. She had been struggling with what performance to do, but now she didn't have to worry anymore.
"That's right, Yukinon, he didn't say that."
"So, I want you to help me. Can you?" Yukino's tone unconsciously softened as she spoke.
Upon hearing the girl's request, Yui readily agreed, her face lighting up with a radiant smile.
"Sure, Yukinon, I'll do my best."
Yukino's face also broke into a gentle smile.
"Yes, thank you, Yui."
...
Vocalist - Yui, guitarist and co-vocalist - Yukino, drummer - Haruno, bassist - Shizuka, keyboard player - Meguri.
The band members were all decided, and they began practicing, as time was running out, and their next performance was approaching.
Shizuka manipulated the bass a few times and nodded, "It's still good. I should be able to play the song we performed before with you."
Due to the lack of time, they couldn't choose a completely new song, so they decided to go with the one Haruno had performed at the cultural festival.
Fortunately, everyone was familiar with the song, and even Yui could vaguely remember the lyrics, so a few rehearsals would suffice.
Soon, the girls had rehearsed the song enough.
Meanwhile, Saki had finished modifying Hachiman's outfit.
She tightened the shoulders and armpits, making the clothes perfectly fit Hachiman's body, showcasing his excellent physique.
Despite his casual attire not accentuating it, when he wore formal clothes, his charm immediately became apparent.
After all, he was someone with multiple max-level attributes, and if he wanted to, he could exude charm.
Looking at the current Hachiman, Saki's eyes rippled with a hint of emotion.
Why does he seem even more handsome than before...
No, I shouldn't think like this.
Focus on college exams, focus on college exams...
After college, maybe I can...
Saki once again recalled the encounter with the Okazaki couple at the summer festival.
Marriage... children...
Hachiman had previously promised to help Saki fulfill her dream of going to college by borrowing money. This was definitely a great favor to her.
So, the girl still had some feelings for Hachiman.
If she couldn't repay the money, would she have to...
Lost in her thoughts, her face grew increasingly red.
Seeing this, Hachiman became puzzled.
"Kawasaki-san, are you okay?"
"Ah, I'm fine!"
Saki quickly shook her head.
But upon hearing him use a somewhat unfamiliar form of address, she blurted out.
"Hachiman-kun... just call me Saki."
This caught Hachiman off guard, and he tentatively spoke.
"Then... Saki?"
"Yes, yes."
Hearing Hachiman call her only by her name, Saki nodded repeatedly.
Saki? It felt quite nice.
With a hint of joy in her heart, she raised her head and noticed something amiss.
"Hachiman-kun, where's your necktie?"
"It's here." Hachiman picked up the tie that was placed aside.
Seeing him holding the tie, Saki spoke up.
"Let me help you put it on."
Hachiman thought for a moment and didn't refuse. After all, having a beautiful girl assist him was a good thing.
"I appreciate it."
"No problem." Saki smiled slightly and took the tie from him.
While the girl helped Hachiman with his tie, Ebina, who had nothing else to do, noticed this scene.
She pushed up her glasses and a smile of unknown meaning appeared on her face.
On the other side, Yukino also noticed the situation. Seeing Saki and Hachiman standing so close, she couldn't help but feel a bit uncomfortable.
Yukino's elder sister, Haruno, also noticed her little sister's expression and followed her gaze, only to discover the proximity between Hachiman and Saki.
Is Yukino... feeling jealous?
Realizing this, Haruno raised an eyebrow and approached her little sister, lightly teasing.
"Yukino, should I also help you with something regarding Hikigaya-kun?"
Meanwhile, on the stage, the music and singing came to a stop. It seemed that Hayama and Yumiko's performance had ended.
Ignoring her older sister's suggestion, Yukino walked straight toward the preparation area, speaking as she went.
"Everyone, let's go. It's our turn to go on stage now."
