| Morning, on the way to class...
))Bliiip, blip((
/"Haha!- mrmHa!- My phone!"/ Kiara panicked. /"Hhh-HelLO?"/
"AaAskka's mother?" Kiara asked.
". . . . ."
"pPlunk!" Her hair reacted with shock!
"aAHh! Askka's sick?!?" She asked, clutching her palm with worry. "I understand... Goodbye..... "
((Call ended))
[Floor crash!]"Renna AND Kliff too?!" She groaned as she fell to her knees.
| Meanwhile, with Askka.
/"ArgArhhh! I feel.. LIKE outright catwater!" Askka thought, anguished. "*aHa-Snrgh!* And.. My vision is al-a-all shaky again! *Moans*"/
/"What doesn't help me rest well, is... *AhA-Srghhh!* Is knowing, my homies caught this too..... "/
*Mwew-Mew?* *Mew?*
| At the same time, elsewhere.
"Next, on our history path of Japanese confectioneries. We have red bean beginnings-" The audio book narrated.
"RweRed bean jammm... " Renna mumbled vacantly.
Frightened, Kliff thought, /"I really am a softie, aren't I?! If I wasn't, I wouldn't be melting into my floor, would Iii?!?"/
*Sniff, weep*
| After classes, in the RS clubroom.
/"Should I- Or not- But no one's...?"/ Kiara freaked. /"And still- I'm hereee... "/
(Squeaaak)
"Is there someone here? Hello?" A smart looking student girl, asked.
"AhaHahAhaaah----" Kiara reacted with her arms moving everywhere.
The student asked, "He-llo? Is this club_ just you?"
/"More- There's more- members!"/ Kiara tried to hint.
((Squeaak- Squeak- Squek!))
[Straining]"Iii am from the computer club. Anddd I just require SOMEone who can fix.. this pc for us." She stated, as she pulled a cart inside.
~Silence~
"gHahhh!" Kiara gasped, as she stood up quickly. "IS THAT THE NEWEST 2025 GX9000 PC A-Dell, you have right there?!?!"
"Urm, yeah? What about it... " She replied, standoffish.
| A bit later.
The smart-looking student explained, "Days ago, one of our male members put this PC together. But afterwards... when we turned it on, *Glip, gli, glip!*
Itt makes this weird beep-like sound every few minutes. And I heard of someone in this club, who's skilled with tech? Can I count on you?"
/"Really?- Me?"/ Her face shyly read, as she stretched her palms.
| A little later.
"Is- this it?" Kiara sweated over.
(...)
*Glip, gliiip, glip* *Gliiip, glip, glip*
/"NooOo_ "/ Her head dropped down in sadness.
| >>.
/"Now with- that gone? Maybe?"/ She thought, eagerly.
*Glip, gliiip* *Glippp, glllip*
[Desk crash]"No! NOooo, Agh----" She moaned, planting her head on the desk.
| >>. >>.
"Kcah-Kkha! p-Please. There's nothing left I could do!" She begged it as if it could hear her.
(. . .!)
(. . . . .!)
/"Iii-I-IS----"/ Her inner thoughts yelled.
*Glip!* *Glip, gliip, glip!*
/"AgH! No, no! Argh!"/ Her thoughts cried, as she shaked her head painfully.
[Anguished]/"As part- Of the Rascal Society club! -I cannot let this go!" She stated to herself.
((Screw! Screww!))
She said aloud, "I w-will look inside, and look for the problem -myself!"
*Inspecting*
"What's- What's this?" She asked as she grabbed a object.
| The next day afternoon.
"Hello! So? How is our pc?" The student asked, skeptically.
Kiara spoke with a shy cough, "gGgood news. Your pc w-wasn't damaged.. The problem -WAS THIS!"
She replied with disbelief, "A digital watch!?"
"Hmm. Thinking back on it.. Our member did say he couldn't find it." She stated while sighing.
| They smiled at each-other.
"I suppose, I must thank you-um! What's your name?" She said.
She answered with a swallow, "Oh! Kiara's my name!"
| Elsewhere~
Askka thought, /"Why do I feel like_ _ like I can rest better now? Ahrnnnhhh..... "/
