Kamen Rider Plays the Villain in Pretty Cure

"Eh?"

The sudden question caught the girl off guard.

Was it... that obvious?

I Like Ash Too, Can You Give Him to Me?

"Ash can't hear us here, so let's talk here."

At first, she had been the one dragging Saya away from Ash, "escaping" from his side. But somewhere along the way, it had become Saya holding her hand instead.

"Um..."

Feeling uncomfortable from the grip on her hand, Haruka tried to struggle, only to find that she could not break free?

"Haruka, you really do like Ash, don't you? That's why you get so worked up whenever you face him."

Saya-classmate was so strong?

"Why... are you asking that?"

I can't tell an outsider about Pretty Cure and Dysdark! How am I supposed to explain anything related to that to her?

"Does there have to be a reason? I simply want to hear the answer from you, Haruka. Hehe~"

Saya's laughter still sounded as crisp as ever, but for some reason, Haruka felt a chill run down her spine. She could only lower her head and mumble indistinctly.

"Probably..."

"Yes, I understand now."

She was clearly such a warm and wonderful friend, and Haruka had been so happy to become friends with Saya.

Why did she have something so inexplicably similar to Ash about her?

Really, she understood less and less.

"It's enough that I know that. Sorry, I accidentally squeezed your hand too hard earlier, didn't I? I'll let go now."

"Please wait, Saya-classmate!"

The balance of offense and defense shifted once again. This time, Haruka took the initiative and grabbed Saya's arm as she tried to leave. As though she had made up her mind, the girl refused to let go, her eyes gleaming with stubborn determination.
