"Got it."
Makoto gave her an OK sign.
Ichika immediately looked a little disappointed.
Had that still not made Yukino show a weakness?
Yukino's unflustered attitude, as if Ichika could never get under her skin, really made her seem difficult to deal with.
Ichika had another idea: If I deliberately let Makoto touch me while he helps me pose later, will Yukino get angry and finally crack?
Just as Ichika was getting excited at the prospect, Yukino's icy voice rang out. "That's a very disrespectful expression."
Ichika reined in her thoughts. Before she could speak, Yukino fixed her with a cold stare and said, "I'm warning you: don't keep testing how far you can push your luck."

Yukino glared at him.

You want me to wear a swimsuit for you to see?
In your next life.
Yukino thought decisively.
For the rest of the photoshoot, Makoto was completely in "work mode."
Just as he'd told Nino
