Screenshot from Bloom of a kitchen on fire. The text reads "The air is growing thicker, hotter. It's getting harder to breathe. I try to move the couch, but it wouldn't budge-I'm not strong enough."
Well... that's not good.

This gyaru influencer is a massive fan of MC! It would be a shame if the MC did something that turned her into an enemy...
