EP.34 The embarrassing past in the album

After the meal, Kishimoto-sensei showed me around his studio as promised.

Materials for human reference, various collections of oriental paintings, various manga and tablets, etc.

It was very impressive to see in person the studio that I had only seen in pictures.

At home, I usually only work on the content, and I actually draw manga in the studio next door. Im the type thats hard to concentrate at home.

While saying that with folded arms, Kishimoto-sensei smiled.

However, as I was satisfied enough to see the studio of my favorite mangaka, I didnt want anything more.

Oh, sensei, can I have your autograph, please?

Fine, as much as you want.

When I heard that, I took out the entire collection of the golden samurai I had in my bag.

The 28 manga were quite stained after reading them several times.

Teacher Kishimoto left a signature on the inner cover of the books one by one.

After getting all 28 copies signed, I bowed my head with great satisfaction after getting my autograph.

Thank you, sensei! Ill keep it forever!

Then Mr. Kishimoto smiled politely and waved his hand.

Haha, its just a signature of someone like me. Just stay close to my daughter.

Yes!

After looking around the studio like that, I went up to the second floor, led by Rika.

Ta-da! This is my room!

Should I say that it was kind of unexpected?

Her room was entirely decorated in a relaxed tone.

Although the cute props stood out, it felt incredibly modern for a 17-year-old girls room.

Is it Rikas mother taste?

I stepped into the room thinking so and was surprised to see manga volumes filling one wall.

Hehe, a little disturbed? When my friends first came to my house, they showed the same reaction as Ryu-chan.

I usually thought Rika liked shonen manga a little.

However, now that I saw it, it was not a little, but a lot.

It was simply spectacular to see shonen manga, which can be known by their names, being separated by genre and stuck in the bookshelf.

People would mistake it for a library, not a room.

Now, sit here and wait. Ill bring some tea and something to eat.

I sat on the cushion in front of the sitting table, as Rika recommended.

It was my first time visiting a girls room, but I felt unexpectedly comfortable.

Was it because of the shonen manga? It felt like I was at one of my friends houses.

Rika, who was leaving the room to go to the kitchen, looked back and said,

While Im gone, can you not touch anything? Ill get really mad if you get caught.

Got it.

Perhaps because we were at an age sensitive to privacy, I guess she was worried about leaving her room alone.

When I nodded, saying okay, Rika left the room saying she would go quickly.

Hm

Rika, her daughter, was always next to her.

Huhu, isnt my daughter so cute? She had a talent for cosplay because she looked like me.

To be honest, it was nothing else than a culture shock in many ways to say that cosplay was taught early to her.

Is she talking about Rikas embarrassing past?

When I was nodding my head, somehow convinced,

Ah, I finally found it. My daughters embarrassing past.

What? Theres more?

I was surprised that there was a worse embarrassing past than this.

Honestly, at this point, I was wondering what the picture was.

Perhaps because she was satisfied with my response, Maria nodded her head and showed me a picture of the album.

In the picture, Rika, a middle school student with an eye patch on her right eye and a black gosroli costume and a red lens, looked so cool

Mama!

Hearing a pointed voice from behind my back, I hurriedly closed the album.

Oh my, youre already here?

Maria welcomed Rika with a calm expression.

Rika, who walked with a red face, hit the tray she was holding while putting it down on the table to make a sound and asked Maria.

Did you show them?

Then Maria smiled tenderly and nodded.

Yes.

Kyaaaaaa!

Rika was bursting with shame.

She wasnt as bright and playful as usual and looked genuinely ashamed.

Thats right, its understandable if a friend in the same class discovered a picture of you with the 8th grade syndrome.

If I were in the same situation, Id find a rat hole first to hide.

When I hesitated because I didnt know how to console her, Rika said with a tearful look.

I dont do any cosplay anymore Its true! Thats just Its a mistake I made during a stormy period!

Uh, yeah. I trust you.

As I nodded saying so, Rika was somehow in even more pain.

Is it the cry of someone who got caught with her embarrassing past.

Maria, who was happily watching her daughter suffer, put the album on her side and waved her hand slightly.

Then Mama will get going. You two have a good time~

Then Rika jumped up from the bed and shouted to the back of Marias head as she left the room.

Dont ever come into my room again!

However, Maria closed the door slightly and walked out without any reply.

Rika, who was huffing to herself, asked me with a tearful face as if she still couldnt relieve her anger.

Youre going to keep this a secret, right?

I nodded with a bitter smile.

Theres no one to talk to anyway.
