In between Megumi and Hima was a plate of buns that was put out for Megumi. Hima thought of a notorious plan and grabbed one of the bun and put it inside her mouth in one whole. She grinned maliciously at him, while chewing it.
But Megumi rather than being annoyed pushed the plate towards her and said "If you want you can have the other"
Hima felt devastated that her plan backfired. She grumpily took the other buns and wrathfully chewed them up. Megumi walked to the other end of the room.
"Why doesn't he get angry and lash out" Hima complained.
"Now, now. Don't need to be sad. He cares about you so he would never do such a thing. Here have one of my buns too" Aoi comforted her.
"Fuck I will just create a voodoo doll and then torture him. I bet he will know not messing with Hima" she said with amuse as she was stretching her hand to get a bun from Aoi plate.
But Aoi grabbed her wrist tightly and wouldn't let it budge. "You won't do it, will you?" Aoi inquired coldly. The motherly feeling that she was giving at once turned into a cold ruthless nature. Even Sanso realized this sudden change in the air distance himself from them.
"Ouch I won't I won't I promise. Please release me it's hurting Aoi san" Hima pleaded.
"Alright. For a moment I thought you were serious" Aoi said with a smile.
Hima was shaking in her boots looking at her smiling. Megumi was oblivious to all this commotion happening behind his back. His head was occupied with all sorts of planning. Now that everything was so close to completion he felt a sense of dread rising inside his soul. The fear that everything would fall apart at the critical moment was bugging him.
'Haste will only ruin the work yet delay will add unexpected obstacles to the plan' Megumi thought.
