My Friend Doesn't Hesitate 7

 ACT07     How About the Photo's Workmanship?


「Thank you for waiting, these are our One Strike to the Heart Pancakes.」

『Oh~』


During the outing on their day off, at a cafe in a big city about three stations away.

Mashiro and Akami gasped in admiration when they saw the large pancakes decorated with strawberries, cherries, and whipped cream that had been brought to their table.


「I'd heard the rumors, but this is quite the amount. Moreover, I don't think I'd be able to make decorations like that.」

「Wow, it looks and smells perfect~. Photo, photo.」


Akami pointed her smartphone camera at the pancakes.

Even though Mashiro was unfamiliar with fashionable trends, she knew what that act was.

She knew, but.


Kasha


「... Shiro-chan, why did you make a peace sign above the pancakes?」

「Er, for some reason, I wanted that in the photo.」


The moment she pressed the button, Mashiro covered the pancakes with two of her fingers. Akami's eyes narrowed.


「I’ll take a picture of Shiro-chan later, so for now, let me take pictures of just them?」

「Ok.」


Mashiro felt that, as might be expected, Akami would get angry if she did any more, so she obediently agreed.

It was hard for her to imagine why people wanted to take pictures of their meals so badly, but if it was in fashion, it would be boorish to deny it.
 

... Should I take a picture as well?

Thinking she should also take part, she took out her smartphone.

When Akami was finished taking pictures, Mashiro also aimed at the pancakes and thought about pressing the button on the camera app, however.


「Shiro-chan?」

「... Hmmm.」


Having just them alone was insufficient for some reason.

Maybe she should also photograph Akami sitting across from her?

She felt that might be fine, but... since it was a good opportunity, she wanted to be a little more greedy.

And so,


「Akami, excuse me, I'm going next to you for a bit.」

「Eh, Sh-Sh-Shiro-chan!?」


Mashiro got up from her seat and went to Akami's side, squeezed in close to her when she sat down, then turned on her smartphone's selfie mode.

She moved the pancake plate a little closer, stretched her arm out... OK, everything was ready.


「Picture time~」

「NOT picture time~, Shiro-chan, close close!!!」

「What are you saying? I have to be close to fit in the frame, you know?」

「No, not that...! Suddenly, such a thingーー」

「Akami, I want to take a picture with you. Please.」

「Uu... Ok...」


Akami curled in on herself with a bright red face, but she said it was fine, so Mashiro readied her smartphone again.

However, because of their exchange while Akami was surprised earlier, the two of them were no longer within the frame.

She stuck their bodies a little closer together,


「Hiu!?」


Hugged Akami's waist with her free hand,


「Hau!?」


And since there was a height difference, she pressed her cheek against Akami's cheek.


「Hou!!??」


Every single one of Akami's reactions was cute, but setting that aside.

She pressed the camera button on her smartphone, and it made a shutter sound.

Both of them looked good and the pancakes looked good; she had taken a picture with a good composition.


「Thank you, Akami.」

「…… It is I who should say that.」


Mashiro thanked her while moving back to her original seat, and for some reason, Akami had fallen prostrate in her seat and replied with a small voice.

While she was bright red all the way to her ears and her shoulders were violently trembling, which made question marks float around Mashiro's head, she was probably fine.


「Akami, do you want a copy of the picture I just took?」

「! I-I want it!」

「Oh, ooh, your reaction is extreme, huh... Wait a sec.」


Calling up Akami's number on the SNS message app, Mashiro pasted the image file of the photo she just took.

Since it was a valuable opportunity, she decided to add a slight decoration to the image.

Since I was able to take a cute picture, which one would be good... oh, that's a good one.

The words『Lovey-dovey』.

Those were the perfect words to describe the two of them right now.


「... Nnーmm.」


However, the letters looked a little large... but, well, it should be fine?

With that in mind, Mashiro sent the decorated image to Akami.


「Bu!」


When she saw that image, Akami fainted in agony for some reason.


「Shiro-chan, it says『Lovey-dovey』...!」

「Aah, sorry, the decoration letters stick out a little, but is it okay?」

「……………… Ish fine. Yes.」

「?」


For some reason, Akami's response to Mashiro was completely burned out, but since she said it was fine, it should be fine.

Mashiro was satisfied.

And, although it felt like that had taken a lot of time, the pancakes they ate together were extremely delicious.


  ☆★★★☆★★


Shiro-chan, what an assault in waves.

My HP is already zero...

However.

When I look at the picture I received.


As expected, I feel like I'm going to break into a grin...


This is definitely becoming my standby image.
