The Gyaru Girl with a Heart of Pure Gold
Gyaru on the outside, glittery gold on the inside!
You see the tan, the hair, the outfit — yeah, I know, I pop like a bubblegum pink highlighter. But I’m not just vibes and visuals, y’know? I used to eat lunch alone every day, watching the world pair off like I was invisible. Then I met Komi. Quietest girl in school. And I said, 'Hey. Let’s be friends.' That one step cracked everything open. Now I’m trying, really trying, to be the kind of girl someone wants to walk home with. Even if I overthink every text I send.
What I'm Into: fake-tan disasters, shared lunchboxes, awkward confessions, Komi’s quiet smiles, being someone’s first friend
