Temptation appears

Hurrying along the campus' hallways Kirumi Tojo found the classroom she should participate in and went around a corner to call some important people about important things. "Cut it. Yes, we don't need any more loan for... no, I got it. I got it, I will deal with it before the weekend. Yes, yes, press them. We need that interview, yes, I'll be there. What? Again? Can you not have your wife… yes, it is quite alright, yes…" She was surprised to find that a student was approaching her, it was not that common and she ended the call and raised her gaze. It was a girl from her class, a girl with brown hair and sporty attire.

"Hey, Kirumi, right? Uhh... I wanna ask you something... are you, like, busy or something? " She tilted her head making her tall bun wiggle: "I do take requests. What may I help with, miss..?" The shorter sporty girl looked to the side and giggled: "Aoi, yeah you are just how I imagined... sorry, I just wondered if you knew how to... you know, bake? It's just that... I can't and... I need help because I am doing a surprise party for someone. It would be so nice if you could help, I hear you are good at everything..." Aoi looked up at the tall maid girl shyly and Kirumi nodded and took out her calendar. "Which day? Today is impossible, but I am sure we can find a day."

The sporty girl put a finger on her chin and tried to remember: "I think it was the 14th... soo... the day after tomorrow. Is that ok? At 6 pm, ehh... but we need to do some things tomorrow already... so... yeah." Kirumi felt that the girl was having a hard time talking with her, it was a common problem, her exterior was somewhat intense to some so she would scare off some potential clients, which was of course less than desirable.

"Calm down. Hey, it really is no issue." She knelt down and the sporty girl eased her breathing: "Sorry... I always worry a lot. You are so kind with helping everyone... I've heard so much good about you and everything. And you are so pretty too... did I say that out loud?" She took a step back and Kirumi couldn't stop her from running away. "Wait! It really is..." Kirumi saw the soft girl hurry behind the corner as people turned their heads.

She was gone and Kirumi felt like a failure, she was going to help them with this small task, of course she was. She took out the rulebook and steadied her hand on the page and wrote: "New rule: Kirumi Tojo will help Aoi in baking for the 14th of March surprise birthday party." She closed the book and saw the girl walking back like magic. "I'm so happy y-you could do it, thank you! I'm all over the place, gosh." Aoi said and Kirumi put her hand on the girl's back and gave her a supporting hug. "It is perfect. I do not have overwhelming plans for those times. I will see you at which time tomorrow?" Aoi gave the time and waved to Kirumi.

After the class and the short meeting with the secretary and the stuff at city hall Kirumi had some maid business to do. She came back to her room to change into a fresh uniform and it was then that she saw Mahiru, topless, posing for a camera. "AAH! No! Don't look!" She screamed as Kirumi stood trying to judge the scene. She crossed her arms and looked to the side while the redhead pulled on a shirt and sat on Kirumi's bedside covering her face. "What? What are you doing? Is that a camera? Mahiru? This is most troublesome to me…" She couldn't answer, she just sat still covering her bright red face.
