CH 22

Act 1 - The Hungry Idol Part

6-3 

"Alright, let's get out of here." (Rintaro)

"Ah, I want to greet the keeper sister......." (Rei)

"We need to do something about that outfit as soon as possible!" (Rintaro)

I pulled Rei's hand and we left the venue.

I draped my hand towel over her chest, just in case someone might take a look.

We rushed into the souvenir shop of the aquarium.

"Look, you can't walk around with this appearance, can you? It might be a waste of money, but you can buy some clothes here." (Rintaro)

"Mm...... You're indeed right." (Rei)

Looking down at her chest, Rei seemed to finally realize that she was soaking wet.

The items lined up in front of her were T-shirts with pictures of fish printed on them.

It's not that I don't like it, but I think it's better than having her underwear showing through.

"Rintaro, let's pair up then." (Rei)

"What?" (Rintaro)

"Since we're here, I want us to wear the matching clothes." (Rei)

"That's embarrassing! We're not even a couple......." (Rintaro)

"This is a Translation Content of pemudatunawisata[dot]my[dot]id. so, read only on there, okay guys~"

"Today is a date. Is it no good......?" (Rei)

It completely makes no sense――――

However, the upturned eyes of a very popular idol have extraordinary destructive power, and I flinched involuntarily.

I've taken all the effort to invite her, so I don't want to make her feel disappointed by refusing it.

(It can't be helped, right......)

I let out a big sigh and picked up a light blue dolphin T-shirt.

"Okay. But I don't want to pick anything but this dolphin T-shirt." (Rintaro)

"Yup. I also thought that design was good." (Rei)

Rei picked up the pink dolphin t-shirt that was the counterpart to the one I had chosen.

I rejected Rei's offer that she would pay for both t-shirts and just purchased my own.

As a man, it might not be cool not to pay for Rei's t-shirt as well, but I couldn't say that I would since I had refused her offer.

So we bought matching dolphin T-shirts.

Of course, there were no changing rooms at the souvenir shop, so we headed to the restroom to change.

On the way, I was struck by the sight of her happily hugging her own T-shirt.

"...... Am I seriously going to walk around in this?" (Rintaro)

In front of the restroom room mirror, I checked my outfit again.

In the center of my white T-shirt, a light blue dolphin picture leaped majestically.

It was adorable. It's definitely adorable, but――――

"Well, whatever." (Rintaro)

No more sweating the details. The most important thing is that Rei is having fun.

Today, I'm going to do everything I can to meet her expectation, even if it's not housework.

"Hello~ I am Bujangga from pemudatunawisata[dot]my[dot]id, Yoroshiku!"

At a certain time, there are creatures that walk by two feet. These creatures can be divided into two by gender. These creatures are surprisingly able to pick something using things called hands.

And on a certain day, two of these creatures meet.

"Halloo~ I am Furujakka, ndesu! Nice to meet you!"

"Y, yes. Nice to meet you too, I am Fuurawan."

"Fuurawan-chan ka? Ii no namae."

"S, sangkyu."

The two greet each other due of their faces are facing each other.

They speak, breathe, blink, sweat, and so.

And after a long time passes,

"!?"

"Kyaa~ Furujakka-kyun."

"Daijoubu ka? Fuurawan-chan."

"D, daijoubu... desu."

"Mmm."

"Doushita no?"

"Fuurawan-chan no kaori, suuuuggoku WANGY, hmmmmmppppsshhh ahhhh wangyyyy."

"Mou~ Furujakka-kyun no eeccchi~."

On a certain day, these two meet and have lunch because they are hungry.

The boy orders fried rice while the girl orders a serve of seasoned rice being processed by frying.

For the drinks, the boy orders hot chocolate while the girl orders a cup of chocolate that has not been cold yet.

They eat their food.

They also feed some spoons with each other.

They then having a leisure exchange.

"Ikehh, yaru?"

"Damee~"

"IkehhHH!"

"..."

"Ikeh, tanoshii, kimochii, ore, ganbarimasu!!!"

"Mouu~"

"Dame ka?"

"..."

"Dame nanoka."

"Ee, haayaakuuu~"

The two of them are having exercise, training, and workout, then.

When they finished, then they restarted.

And when they finished, the boy pleaded for the second.

Then when they finished, this time is the girl who asked the third.

And when they finished, the boy once again pleaded for the fourth.

Then when they finished, the girl also once again asked for the fifth.

And so on.

◆◆◆

On the other occasion,

On a day that is not a night.

That day the sun is shining brightly because it's a day and 12:00 o'clock.

The day is bright and the sun has not been set yet.

The breeze can be felt due to the air is flowing.

As he is breathing, a certain boy is approaching a girl.

"Yaa, kitten-chan, can I have your namae?"

"S, su, suteki~. Ah, hai. Fuurawan desu."

"Fuurawan-chan, huh. What a kirei no namae. By the way, watashi no namae is Badz Zheengan. Watashi wa Son of a Beach. Watashi came from The Pangea Selatan. Diligent in setsuyaku. Ketsueki type is I, I for Ikkehmen. Watashi no hobby wa breathing. Yoroshiku."

"Yoroshiku, Badz Zheengan-san."

"Fuurawan-chan, watashi no yubi to kimi no chawan, let's have made karera meet and greet."

"Hai."

"Watashi-tachi will have much tanoshi."

They have a wik wok awok koakoawaok akoawoakakwa kawkaowaoaok.

When they have done of their a wik wok awok koakoawaok akoawoakakwa kawkaowaoaok, then they re-doing again.

When they finished again, the girl pleaded for the second.

Then when they finished, this time is the boy who asked the third.

And when they finished, the girl once again pleaded for the fourth.

Then when they finished, the boy also once again asked for the fifth.

And so on.

"Fuurawan-chaaannn!!! Ikanaide!!!!."

"Gomen ne, Furujakka-kun."

"Dameee, Fuurawan-chaannnn!!!"

"Sayonara, Furujakka-kun."

"Ima, ore wa, Furujakka wa, pemuda tuna asmara dearimasu."

Who can stand to endure this situation

Who doesn't feel the loss

You leave me when I'm so in love

When I'm crazily in love

you choose another guy

Who can stand being dumped

Whose heart not hurt

The memories that have been passed

I keep it deep inside my heart

We are not one anymore

It's alright, I'll get through the days strong-heartedly

My wish is only one, be safe and sound

I can only be able to harbor this, from day to night

Because I know I'm just nobody

It's alright, I'll harbor this feeling inside my heart

I'll keep wish you live well

All I can do is hope you won't regret

Goodbye and thank you

"AWOKWOKAOWKOKAOKWKAOWKOAKOK!!!"

How should I explain this to my parents

We had gone through this long

But ended up breaking up

You are tempted by another guy's love

You yourself had been declared it

Living our love until our old days

Won't two-timing, I'm the only one for you

But now there's another guy inside your heart

It's as if the morning is cloudy

Then the day is rainy

In the afternoon you hurt me

And in the night I cry for you

I can only imagine

All of those had been just memories now

I rode you back, went through the way

Hugging under the rain

But now you are choosing

To be hugged by another guy

Do you not sense

How heavy-heartedly I am

Have to lost my loved one

Don't wanna leave my house

I have no appetite

If I'm not fed

I walked out of the restroom and thought of waiting for Rei in front of the photo stand-in panel that was set up nearby, but she came out of the restroom too, just a few seconds apart.

She was wearing the same design t-shirt, just a different color, but somehow when she wore it, it looked more picturesque. Once again, I realized the magnificence of her unparalleled beauty.

"Did you wait?" (Rei)

"Just about five seconds." (Rintaro)

"I wish you would have told me you had just arrived. I've always longed for it." (Rei)

"You know, that event had happened very recently, when we met at the station....... Come on, let's go." (Rintaro)

"Yes." (Rei)

We went back to the path on foot.

In the beginning, I was embarrassed to go as a pair, but I gradually forgot as I watched the brightly colored fish swimming in the tank.

When I saw Rei's happy face reflected in the tank, I was glad that I had invited her.

Well, time flies when you're having fun.

After looking around until the end path, we returned to the entrance.

The time was a little after 13:00. It was a delicate time, which was either lunchtime or not lunchtime.

Anyway, I was feeling very hungry, and I wanted to eat somewhere.

"I'm a little thirsty, so I'm going to buy a drink." (Rei)

"Okay, I also want to go get something to drink." (Rintaro)

"It's fine. I'll get one for Rintaro, too. You've given me a ticket, so let me at least do this in return?" (Rei)

"...... I'm weak when you say it like that." (Rintaro)

Rei made me sit down on a nearby bench and walked quickly in the direction of the vending machine.

Hmm, I'm bored.

To pass the time, I take out my phone and try to kill some time by opening manga apps.

Lately, I've been adding a few titles recommended by Rei to my favorites, and using the lives and tickets that are recovered by time, I've been reading them little by little.

I really appreciate this system.

If I'm interested in the rest of the story after reading a few chapters, I just need to purchase the book.

This way, I rarely make wasteful spending, and I can fully enjoy the manga while saving money.

"Originally translated by pemudatunawisata[dot]my[dot]id"

"――――Huh? Shidou-kun?"

I'm about to open the first chapter of a new manga when I hear a familiar female voice.

When I looked up, I saw Nikaido Azusa, the class-rep of our class, standing in front of me.

She was dressed in a short-sleeved, long skirt that showed a little of her shoulders, a little more mature than her casual clothes, and she was looking at me with surprised eyes.

"......Isn't this Nikaido-san! What a coincidence, to meet at this place." (Rintaro)

Because I was completely out of it, I was a moment too late to switch into feigned naivete mode, but I managed to make up for it with tension.

I instantly felt a sense of shame at the fact that I was wearing an aquarium T-shirt. It didn't bother me anymore when I was side by side with Rei, but it was much more embarrassing when I was alone. I'm going to be identified as those crazy merry guys.

"Hey Azusa, what's wrong?"

From the other side of Nikaido, I heard another familiar voice.

The people who showed up were Doumoto Ryuuji, Nogi Honoka, and Kakihara Yuusuke, a group of good friends.

Apparently, they had also come to visit this aquarium.

"Ah, it's Shidou. I didn't know you were here too!" (Ryuuji)

"I was, Doumoto-kun......, you guys seem to be getting along well as usual, don't you." (Rintaro)

"Come on, it's kind of embarrassing." (Ryuuji)

Laughing cheerfully, Domoto scratched his head, looking as if he wasn't completely embarrassed.

Nogi and Kakihara, who subsequently approached me, also looked surprised at me.

"My God! Isn't this Shidou! What a coincidence." (Honoka)

"I never thought I'd see you here, coincidences are sure scary." (Yuusuke)

I waved hello to Nogi and Kakihara.

In the meantime, I glanced towards the vending machine that Rei was headed for.

She was still in front of the vending machine. She's probably wondering what to buy, since she's pacing back and forth in front of several vending machines.

Nice, keep going. Please don't come back for a while.

"originally translated by bujangga - pemudatunawisata[dot]my[dot]id"

"But it's fine. I thought Shidou was someone who never bought such goods." (Yuusuke)

"A-hahaha...... That's not true, I buy kinds of goods, you know? I'm the type of person who buys an Alice band or something when I go to an amusement park." (Rintaro)

"Heeh? Then maybe we'll hit it off!" (Yuusuke)

We don't have to be. Originally, I'm exactly who you thought I was――――I thought, but I couldn't say it out loud.

It seems that they have just arrived at the aquarium, and in a little while they will probably move on.

I'd like to get through this while trying not to give out any unnecessary information.

"Hey, Shidou-kun. Since we're here, why don't we take a look around together?" (Azusa)

"......Huh?" (Rintaro)

As I was muddling through with a proficient smile, Nikaido suddenly made a suggestion that I couldn't believe.
