Chapter 23: Gyaru



Yuuki knew Honjou was one of the characters in anime 'Hajimete no Gal'. Her name was Honjou Ranko, she had short blonde hair, tan skin, light purple eyes, large breasts, and revealing uniform. She was the definition of Gal.

Gal was a description of people who followed many types of Japanese street fashion that originated in the 1970s. Its popularity peaked in the 1990s and early 2000s. Gyaru fashion was typically characterized by having heavily bleached or dyed hair (mostly shades from dark brown to blonde), tanned skin, highly decorated nails, and dramatic makeup. The makeup typically consists of dark eyeliner and fake eyelashes used in ways intended to make the eyes appear larger, as well as contouring of the face for a slimming effect. Clothing pieces for gal fashion different depending on which gal style the individual chooses.

Yuuki knew Honjou was in love with her childhood friend and was very possessive of her. It was fine if her childhood friend was a man, but it was a girl. Their love was forbidden and being restricted by something known as gender.

Yuuki knew it and decided to tease her. He knew he couldn't get her attention that was why he needed to do this. It was such a pity for a beautiful girl like her to fall in love with someone who she couldn't be with.

It was fine if both of them accepted each other, but it was one-sided love. If Houjou confessed her love and being rejected their relationship would go awkwardly between each other.

Yuuki wanted to try to change her at least to another girl if Honjou couldn't fall in love with a guy.

"Do you like a girl?" Yuuki said.

Yuuki had anticipated a lot of answers but he didn't expect her to ask who he was.

"Who are you?" Honjou asked.

'Didn't you hear my introduction?' Yuuki wanted to smash the table.

"You didn't hear my introduction?" Honjou shook her head.

"I'll introduce myself after you introduce yourself." Honjou wrinkled her eyebrows but nodded.

"My name is Honjou Ranko," Yuuki nodded in response, "Who are you?"

"My name is Shuuei Yuuki," Yuuki said.

"How do you know, I like a girl?" Ranko said. (I change it into Ranko, it'll awkward to say Honjou all the time).

"Well, it's easy." Ranko titled her head, "Because, you didn't look at me like the girls in this class."

Ranko wrinkled her eyebrow and frowned. She didn't expect Yuuki was so narcissism, but she had to admit that he was handsome enough to say that. She also noticed all the girls glance at him from time to time.

"Hmph," Ranko turned her head.

Yuuki didn't give up thought.

"Well, it's fine if your loved one didn't have a boyfriend, but what if one day she has a boyfriend?" Ranko didn't turn her head and still ignoring him, but Yuuki knew she was listening.

"Then, you're being forced to listen to their love story." Ranko started to tremble.

Yuuki knew he needed to stop or else Ranko would scream.

"Well, I'll leave it like that, you can talk to me if you want to talk about your love." Yuuki decided to stop and focus on the lesson.

Ranko was almost shouting at him, luckily Yuuki stopped his talked. She started thinking what was he said earlier. She had never thought of it before. What if what he said really happening. She looked at him who was listening to the teacher.

'Hmph, I'll definitely won't let Yukana become anyone girlfriend.'

Ranko was thinking hard but she couldn't find any solution to make Yukana wouldn't be anyone girlfriend. She looked at Yuuki and thinking he might have an idea to do it.

It was time for lunch break, Yuuki wanted to go to the cafeteria until he was being called by Miyuki and Chiaki.

"Yuuki, do you want to eat together?" Chiaki asked.

"Yeah, can you Yuuki?" Miyuki said.

Yuuki was melting when he saw Miyuki wanted to eat with him.

"Ye..." Yuuki wanted to say yes to them but he was being dragged by someone.

"Hey?" Yuuki looked it was Ranko who dragged him.

"I'll borrow him," Ranko said

"Let's eat together tomorrow," Yuuki said while being dragged by her.

"Hmm, it's very rare for Ranko to talk with someone." Chiaki said.

"Hmph, but, she took Yuuki." Miyuki pouted.

"Well, we can eat with him anytime." Chiaki was petting her head.

"Sigh." Both Miyuki and Chiaki decided to visit Hina-chan and Kuina

Ranko dragged him into a rooftop where there was no one.

"Why are you dragging me?" Yuuki asked.

"So, can you do it?" Ranko said.

"Do what?" Yuuki looked confused.

"I mean to stop Yukana to have a boyfriend!!" Ranko looked frustrated.

"No, I don't know," Yuuki shook his head, he knew that Yukana was a very cute girl and a gal. She would definitely get a lot of confession letter from many guys. He was sure that she would get her boyfriend in this short time.

"Kuh! You useless!" Ranko said.

"Hey!" Yuuki felt hurt with what Ranko said.

Then, both of them started to have an argument to each other until they heard a girl's voice.

"Ranko, are you here?" Ranko was panicked when she heard that voice, She looked at him with a fierce gaze.

"You! You need to hide!" Ranko said.

"Ha? Hide? Where?" Yuuki felt that Ranko was unreasonable that she told him to hide in this open space.

"Kuh, anyway just hide!" Ranko pushed him.

"Wa-wait!" Yuuki lost his balance and fell.

"Kyaa." Ranko also fell at the same time.

Yuuki was on the bottom and Ranko was on his top. They looked each other eyes and their lips almost touching. Their atmosphere became very strange until they head that girl's voice again.

"Ranko, are you here?" The door was opened and Ranko started to panicked.

"Hey, calm down!" Yuuki tried to calm her.

"Wait, Yukana!" Ranko didn't listen to him and tried to stand, but she slipped and fell on top of Yuuki again, but this time they weren't so lucky.

"Ranko, what are y...." Yukana stopped when she saw both Yuuki and Ranko.

"Kyaaa!" Yukana screamed while blushing.
