Now it was Murakami's turn to get lost, she almost took a step back from surprise. The kitty spoke to her! This caused my heart to beat rapidly in my chest, and a treacherous blush began to cover my cheeks. Just don't come any closer!

- You helped me t-then! -  Asia continued confusedly, glancing at her, - when I was losing!.. And-and in the shower too! Thank you so much! I've been wanting to say this all this time!

Murakami stared at her and couldn't get enough of her. She had noticed in her soul back then how beautiful her dark green eyes were, and now, in the sunlight, they sparkled like precious stones. What a beauty! And he looks at her hopefully. That's right, Murakami only now realized that she had to say something, which is why she looks like that.

- I didn't do anything to be bowed down for, - Murakami laughed, - but I'm glad my sudden help came in handy.

- Yeah ... - somehow the Kitty muttered in fascination and continued to look at her.

And Yuu was standing nearby and couldn't understand what was going on. As soon as she said that it was just her classmate, Asia's anger evaporated without a trace — what's wrong with her?

- Ah, my name is Asia! -  she suddenly caught herself, lowering her head slightly in embarrassment again, - it's very nice to meet you!

Murakami nodded back, saying her name. The kitty is so friendly! And incredibly sweet. Well, they met. Now they can even occasionally exchange some phrases when Murakami comes to the demonstrations. It's great. Murakami waved her hand; it was inconvenient for her to detain friends.

- Well, have a nice walk, I'll go. Yuu, see you at college…

- Don't you want to come with us? - Asia suddenly exclaimed. Murakami didn't even have time to finish the sentence, looking at them with slight bewilderment.

- We wanted to sit in the cafe... come with us…I'll treat you, you helped me... - meanwhile, Asia continued, clearly embarrassed. And for the second time, Murakami was amazed at how friendly the Kitty was. Although, if you look at Yuu's surprised face, she clearly did not expect such a turn in her life. And Murakami decided for herself that she could sit with them for half an hour out of politeness, and then go off into the sunset – so she agreed.

After entering the tent, Asia couldn't find a place for herself. Is her goddess really that girl Yuu is crazy about?! What was her name?! What does she have to do now, fight off a girl from her own friend?! Is that why they're sitting so close together?! And even a hoodie on her lap!..

Asia was bitchily wiping herself with a damp towel, and growled softly, trying to let off steam at least in this way. She had to find out now, before they went anywhere! Quickly changing into her usual clothes, stepping into her favorite white sneakers, she immediately shouted Yuu's name as soon as she saw them. She jumped over the fence and, walking towards them, suddenly felt timid. Her goddess looked at her with interest with her impossible gray eyes. Therefore, Asia had no choice but to ask Yuu who it was, and if anything, she was seriously planning to join the fight for this girl.

After hearing the explanation, Asia suddenly remembered. Yuu said that she was introduced to her lover by a classmate, and that person turned out to be Murakami! They are not connected in any way by other relationships! An involuntary sigh of relief escaped from her chest. And she also has to thank her savior! And she excitedly bowed to Murakami, and finally said what she had wanted for so long! Her gentle laughter poured honey over Asia's ears, a sincere and magnetic voice enveloped her whole being. Asia just stuck looking at her.

And when her goddess suddenly said some parting words, she was scared - she wanted to talk to her so much more! And she was very glad when Murakami agreed to go with them. On the way to the cafe, Asia casually found out why Murakami's hoodie was tied on Yuu's dress, and calmed down. And their drinks were the same only because they bumped into each other near the same kiosk.

Asia was so engrossed in Murakami that she didn't even notice the startled look of her friend, who clearly didn't understand what was going on. Yuu couldn't believe her eyes. Asia, who is quite cold to unfamiliar people, was now like a magnet with Murakami of different names. It was the first time she had seen such a thing, and she had known her friend since childhood.

In the cafe, Murakami sat down in a wicker chair and Asia immediately ducked into the next one, leaving her always beloved sofa completely ignored. Yuu remembered that when the three of them went with their other friend, Woka, they always fought over this sofa! And now such complaisance! Meanwhile, the waiter brought the menu.

- What do you like?  Asia asked, busily examining the menu she already knew.

- Hmm, I love puerh tea, - Murakami muttered, studying the assortment with interest and pleasantly amazed by the choice of tea drinks. Why didn't she come in here before? Such a variety!

- Puerh?! - Asia was surprised, who did not expect such an answer. It's funny, but actually it's one of her favorite types of tea! And few people love him! She moved closer to Murakami, and, bending down, casually touched her hand with her chest. She pointed a neat finger at the list of Puerhs:

— This one is good, ten years of exposure. I know for sure that it was stored correctly, the taste will be excellent!

Murakami couldn't help but laugh a little:

- You make it sound like you brought him here!

Asia smiled slyly in response:

- And what if it is? My grandfather is one of the tea suppliers in this cafe. He also has his own shop…

- Really? — the girl was surprised, - is this not on a shopping street, with a yellow-green sign?

- What? Were you there?! I've never seen you there, it's not fair!

Murakami laughed again.

- And I, actually, you too! Doesn't that mean we're even?

Asia bit her lip, blushing. And Murakami couldn't help but smile. Well, what a cutie this Kitty is!

- In general, order tea for me on the recommendation of Asia, the secret tea master, and I'll be right back.

Murakami stood up, and Asia gasped.

- Where are you going?

The girl waved her hands eloquently and turned towards the bathroom.

- Oh, yeah, okay ... - Asia drawled, looking with pleasure at the round elastic buttocks, the beauty of which could not be hidden by gray-blue jeans.

Yuu, on the other hand, was shocked that she suddenly found herself the third extra. They're like a couple on a first date! Yes, this is an outright flirtation! It's like Asia's roof was blown off! And from whom, from Murakami?!

- Asia, are you falling for Murakami? - Yuu asked, not believing that she was saying such nonsense out loud.

- Eh? What? - Asia was confused, finally noticing that she and her goddess were actually not alone. Her cheeks began to burn, her heart began to pound harder than before, — is that so noticeable?..

Yuu looked at her friend with bulging eyes:

- Are you kidding me?...

After going to the toilet, Murakami washed her hands with soap and, leaning on the marble countertop, stood there for a while, recovering. It was quite difficult for her to ignore the fact that the Kitty was very close to her. In the end, she watched her a lot and noticed that close contact was normal for her – they often went out and walked in with their comrades in an embrace. So it is unlikely that the Kitty means something, for example, accidentally touching her hand with her breasts. Asia was just leaning towards the menu, that's all. Murakami took a deep breath. And it wasn't that she didn't like it, it was just that her hands were reaching out to touch her silky thick hair, she wanted to caress her so much. Although these thoughts were quite strange, considering that Asia has a boyfriend. And what kind of heterosexual girl would like it if some unfamiliar girl suddenly touched her hair? Murakami did not have such a wide personal field that other people could invade, so she felt slightly uncomfortable, but she could forgive almost everything to the Kitty.

— God forbid to call her that out loud...— muttered Murakami, shaking her head. She didn't want to embarrass her. Yuu and Asia were talking indignantly at a table.

- What do you mean?! Like a dick is a problem!.. — Murakami suddenly heard Asia's muffled voice. Murakami's stomach clenched. No, seriously, get interested in a heterosexual girl!... Apparently, that's what they wanted to discuss—Asia's relationship with her boyfriend. Murakami would like to leave as soon as possible, but cups of fragrant tea were placed on the table, as if for evil. The puerh by her chair was earthy black and exuded such a magical fragrance that Murakami decided to delay her departure and enjoy the rich taste of her favorite drink. The girl took a sip and sighed with satisfaction. She noticed Asia's gaze, which was looking at her with such a proud and satisfied look, as if she had collected this tea herself, giving it to the most expensive customer. This made Murakami smile.

- It's very tasty. Thanks for the advice.

- Please, — she nodded, a bright blush covering her cheeks. Probably from the hot tea. Yuu, on the other hand, looked at Murakami and Asia with mild bewilderment, and sighed, as if giving up on everything. She gulped down half a glass of green tea and began to eat a salad.
