Karouko was exhausted. It wasn't much of a surprise; this day proved to be the most challenging yet - not specifically for Karouko, but for her anger issues. Having to answer multitudes of tests, accidentally spilling her drink on her clothes, and that wasn't even the worst part. She thought that once she got a chance to transform as a magical girl, she'd finally be able to disperse all her anger by beating the shit out of Enormeeta. But life had other things planned. Those being interviewed on live TV, having to go on several photoshoots and attending a meet and greet for Tres Magia. Though it seemed things got better when she and her comrades were met face to face with Enormeeta. Finally having a chance to - they escaped halfway through the fight, AGAIN! With a loud bang of a closed door, Karouko huffed, though it was supposed to be a sigh. It was official: Karouko Tenkawa just had one of her most "challenging" days yet. And she was more than ready to forget about it and sleep. Even though it was barely night, who would care? It's not like anyone would give a shit if she did anyway. "Ding"! Her phone notification sounded, making her feel more angered than before. 'What the fuck does life want more from me?!! I already had to deal with all that bullshit earlier!' She clicked on the notification, ready to curse whoever decided to interrupt her maddened sulking. It was a text. From her best friend. Widening eyes and choking on air was Karouko's honest reaction. The text read: "Wanna hang out??" with a bunch of random emojis along with it, classic her friend. Karouko chuckled, and for once that day, a genuine smile settled on her face. She liked how it felt, as embarrassing as it was to admit out loud. It felt right to smile at her friend's text for some odd reason. Karouko's fingers hovered over the phone's keyboard, trying to think of a proper response. Hell, why was she so nervous?? It's just some stupid message! She shouldn't be going dumb over some text that made her feel like she was on cloud nine, made her brain go wild with endorphins, made her stomach flutter with that sweet mushy shit. Fuck, she was hopeless. Shaking all those thoughts from her head, Karouko made a short, simple reply: "Yeah, sure." It was more nonchalant than her friend's message, but Karouko isn't one to express herself much on text. Well, she could try if that was what her friend wanted. With a deep, nervous sigh, she looked elsewhere, trying to distract herself from her heart's fast pace. "Ding"! The cell phone sang, making Karouko jump. It seems her friend didn't want Karouko to collect her thoughts, as they replied quickly.
