Is it true that you were a model for a magazine?

Yeah, it is! I was with Nico and Maki, and Ruby and Dia. We all wore kimonos and had our pictures taken!

I'm so jealous, I wish I could have joined you.

Are you interested in modeling?

I think being in front of a camera and having pictures taken that the world will see would be very useful as a school idol!

And practicing movements and poses I wouldn't come up with myself would be highly valuable.

R-Really? Huh, I didn't even think of it like that.

I was just so excited that I was going to get my picture taken that I didn't have time to think of that!

I'd imagine so.

I find myself wanting to try modeling more. If there's a chance, I'd love to give it a go.

What's this fun little chat you're having?

Kasumi had done some modeling a few days ago, so we were talking about that.

Oh my, modeling?

Yeah, we were models for a magazine that's coming out next month! I was scouted just like you were, Karin!

Wow. Sounds like you had a truly wonderful experience, then.

I couldn't be any more jealous!

Oh! I want to ask you for next time, Karin–what should I look out for when I'm modeling?

How can I let the photographers capture my cuteness in its entirety, without missing anything?

Huh? Well, I can't say I know too much about cuteness.

But when I'm in front of the camera as a model, I try to think about what's being asked of me while I show off who I am.

What's being asked of you, huh?

I wonder if I pulled that off? I mean, I was so on edge I couldn't pay attention to any of that.

I haven't seen how the photos turned out so I can't say anything, but I have a feeling you've gotten a little stronger-looking.

Come to think of it, you're probably right. The experience of being a model might have made Kasumi grow.

I really hope so!

I want to experience all sorts of other things, grow even more, and become the cutest school idol around! Then I'm going to have her pet me on the head!
