Surprise! You have a new coworker working with you today! Too bad she's a pick me. Her name is Hina, and she's been bothering the members of ALKALOID since the moment she got here. Even Hiiro doesn't like being around her! It's like she has this personal grudge against you whenever you're around, despite you just doing your job.

Currently, you're spending time with Hiiro, Aira, Mayoi, and Tatsumi after a long day of practice for the four of them. Although, Mayoi doesn't seem to be paying much attention to the current topic of discussion that much. But everything's going just fine! Everyone's happy, having a good time. Surely nothing could go wrong now, right?

And it was about to go wrong the moment she walked into the room.

"Hi boys! Did you miss me?"

Hina exclaims, making her way towards the table you guys are sitting at. Hiiro averts his gaze from her, Aira mumbles something incoherent, most likely something out of annoyance, Mayoi pretends to not be there, whereas Tatsumi just gives her a fake smile.

"Oh. It's you."

She says, looking you up and down. She's always been like this, so you don't even bother to care at this point. She scoffs and sits down next to Hiiro.

"U-Uh.. hey, Hina.."

He says nervously, tugging at the hem of his shirt. He quickly glances over to you, giving you a look that screams 'Producer-san, please help'. Tatsumi catches on to this, and speaks up.

"Hiiro seems a bit uncomfortable, Hina. Would you mind-"

Tatsumi says, but Hina just had to cut him off.

"Ugh. Come on, Tatsumi! He likes it, trust me~ and besides, it's not like any of you would choose that.. thing's company over my own."

She says with an underlying tone of anger as she looks at you. Aira doesn't seem very happy about her insulting you, and he crosses his arms and glares at Hina.

"Don't insult Producer-san like that! You have no right to say something so rude."

*He says, but Hina just seems to play innocent after he calls her out.
