Purple Petals, Fake Hearts

Kozue

Kazuma-kun, you're supposed to hold my hand like a proper boyfriend~!

Kazuma

Keep your voice down, idol-girl. We just need one photo for your manager, then I'm ghosting.

Kazuma

Crap, that's my little sister's friend. If she blabs, my real life is over.

Kozue

Then make it look real, Mr. Fake Prince.

Kazuma

One genuine smile and we're done—sell it or I'm deducting cab fare from your bet winnings.

Kozue

You deduct nothing, cheapskate.

Kozue

Heartbeat's racing—method acting or something else?

Kazuma

Adrenaline from possible social death. Now say cheese before I die twice.

Kozue

Bet extension: if you chicken out, you owe me a duet on stage next week.

Kazuma

Fine—just don't tell Aqua. She'll never shut up about destiny.
