Supporting Highschool Student has Lunch
“That sure was terrible wasn’t it.”
“Yeah. but Kuu-chan was cute right…..”
“Well, she was cute but this couple-ticket really is amazing isn’t it……”
I felt like I have done a few months’ worths of retort in just today alone. That Staff-san sure made me do it a lot but the audiences earlier weren’t losing to her either.
Although it is out that we are models, no one asked to shake our hands after the show was over. The security at this aquarium might be surprisingly good.
“Ahh, it’s almost noon huh? Should we grab something for lunch?”
“That’s right. I heard that they serve jellyfish dishes here, let’s take a look!”
“They do that? Still, eating fish dishes at an aquarium is a little strange don’t you think…….”
“Come now, don’t be like that! Let’s go!”
Taken along by Suzuka, I was brought to a place that seems to be a restaurant. Certainly, they seem to serve jellyfish dishes here. It seems they are selling jellyfish ice cream too.
“Hmm, looks like we are too late? Suzuka, it seems that the seats here are already full.”
“Yeah~. But there should be some empty seats soon right?”
At that time, a waitress came up to us.
“I’m sorry……there are no seats available right now……Ah, are you two perhaps using a couple-ticket! Thank you for participating in our show. There are seats reserved for customers using the couple-ticket so please allow me to show you to your seats.”
“…….couple-ticket really is amazing huh…..”
“…….it’s like we have a fast pass…….”
The seats we were guided to overlooked the outdoor corner where seals and penguins are exhibited.
Well, since we can see the outdoor exhibit from here, of course, the people down there can also see us here.
Ah, a small child waved at us. Let’s wave back.
“What are you doing? Ah! There’s a child there! I will wave too!”
“Fufu, this is the menu and cold drinks on the house. Would you like desserts after the meal, dear customers?”
“Eh! Ah, thank you very much……”
When I and Suzuka waved at the child, the waitress arrived with a smile.
Suzuka also seemed to be embarrassed and replied with a slightly quieter voice.
“Eh, desserts aside, we still haven’t looked at the menu yet you know?”
“The couple-ticket also comes with our special dessert. It is quite sweet ‘in a lot of ways’ so our customers usually have to reserve it in advance.”
“In a lot of ways? I don’t know what it is but what do you want to do, Suzuka?”
I don’t know what it will be and women should be more particular about desserts than men so I decided to leave it to Suzuka.
“Then let’s leave it after the meal~. We should save the best for last after all!’
“That’s what she said. Please serve it after the meal.”
“As you wish. And this is our menu.”
I take a look at the menu and there’s a lot of seafood on it. There’s a lot of things that I haven’t eaten before so I am hesitating right now.
“Hmm, I guess I will go with the jellyfish sashimi platter huh……it seems that they are using the fish caught in this place too. They all looked appetizing.”
“I see……this one looks delicious too~. Then I think I will pick the seafood bowl! It is served with a lot of salmon roe so it looked very fancy you know!”
“Then how about we sample each other’s dish?”
“That’s nice! I will have this please!!”
A while after we placed the order, we received the dishes that look just like—no, even more luxurious than the photo in the menu. So people in aquariums do know how to cook fishes well huh…..
“Alright, before we eat ours, let’s try each others’ dishes first shall we?”
“OK! Then I will put some of mine here alright!”
“Oh……this is delicious! I rarely buy sashimi or sushi myself because they are so expensive but eating this sure made me want to buy some later…….”
“Unn, I think that the one you can buy here is way more delicious than usual you know?”
We kept eating while having such a conversation. Personally speaking, the texture of the jellyfish is so addictive. Then, after I and Suzuka finished our dishes, we decided to have our dessert.
“Thank you for the wait! This is jellyfish ice cream and our special drink!”
The dessert that arrived at our table was not very big but it was a parfait that I can’t possibly finish by myself. There is only one spoon, and the drink has a dolphin-shaped straw with two ends in it.
The waitress served it right at the middle of the table between me and Suzuka………Ah, so it is for two people.
“…..uh, this straw…….”
“Is there any problem, dear customer?”
A single two-end straw and one spoon……
“There’s nothing but problems here right!”
“It’s our rule to serve it like this but…….although it is on the house, canceling is……..”
It’s a Free Trap! Because it comes with the couple-ticket, I should have expected this couple-like thing to come out.
When I was wondering if I should cancel the order and pay the cancellation fee, Suzuka suddenly got restless.
“S, Seiya…….I’m okay with this you know….? It would be a waste and, besides…..”
“But…..I can pay the cancellation fee you know, are you sure?”
“Y, yeah……then I will eat it first okay……?
Suzuka eats the jellyfish ice cream while the waitress and I watch.
“Wait, why are you watching us!?”
“How can I not look at such an innocent couple!”
“Do your job!”
“Fuehhhh……”
Why is it, I feel like there are only weird people working here. They all have unique personalities…….
“U, Uhh, Seiya-kun? Here, Ahhn………”
“Mogu!? ……so this is jellyfish ice cream huh…..even as ice cream, jellyfish is still delicious huh……wait, eh?”
“Since we are using a couple-ticket, I thought that we should at least do something like this…….you know.”
I don’t really mind but that was an indirect kiss right? I’m the type that doesn’t care about such a thing but when she said that all of a sudden, I am getting all embarrassed now.
However, I am not someone who would take such a thing lying down. So, I take the spoon from Suzuka’s hand.
“Here Suzuka. Ahhn.”
“Eh? Eh? A, Ahhn…….”
“Shall we try the drink next? Here, Suzuka.”
“Eh, U…nn.”
I can see that Suzuka is all shy now.
“Delicious?”
“I, I don’t know……”
“Seriously, something like this should be saved for your boyfriend right?”
“Y, Y, Yeah, I guess so…….”
Suzuka began to overheat again. Isn’t she too vulnerable to this kind of thing……?
While we were doing all that, we didn’t notice the staff watching everything from behind us.
