Chapter 29: The moment their eyes met
EP.29 The moment their eyes met
You ended up buying both.
Uh, Ill wear one, so it doesnt matter.
As I walked along the path surrounded by purple wisteria blossoms, I gently shook the two paper bags in my hands, and the president slightly blushed and snatched her own bag.
Eventually, the gift chosen for the Russian exchange student was the yukata.
Because that the kimono was too formal and difficult to wear alone, making it unsuitable as a gift for a foreigner.
Well, in a few months the festival season would be back, so a yukata wasnt a bad gift.
More than that, lets take a walk.
Perhaps the president wanted to change the subject of the conversation, and as she said so, she began to walk with the paper bag in her arms.
I followed the president with a slightly bigger step and asked.
I think we are done with our business for today, what are you going to do next?
Then the president, who was walking ahead, hesitated and looked back.
Do you mean after the walk?
Yes. It would be a waste to go work on the student council during such a long holiday.
It was only 2 p.m. because we finished picking things earlier than I thought.
Even if we took a short walk, there was quite a bit of time left until evening.
Then the president hesitated and opened her mouth.
Then what about Nakano Broadway? I heard from Minami before that its perfect for young students to play there.
Oh, thats nice. but it will take a long time to go from Asakusa to Nakano by subway.
Its fine. We can call a car.
She was a rich girl, and as expected, her idea was different from ordinary students.
Then lets go to Nakano for lunch.
Ohoh, good. Im starting to get hungry, too.
It was when we agreed and walked the rest of the trail.
Click!
Huh?
When I looked back after hearing the sound of a camera, a man and a woman who seemed to be in love were taking pictures with a selfie stick.
Just a moment ago, I thought it was just the two of us, but when did they come?
Arent you coming?
As I tilted my head in wonder, I hurriedly followed the presidents walking ahead.
***
I, I thought wed get caught.
Lets go away quickly please.
Shinjiro Akagi and Minami Akagi had followed Kumiko and Kim Yoo-sung, and secretly took pictures.
It was to report to the lady later, but they had no idea Kim Yoo-sung would suddenly look back, so they pretended to be lovers.
This is why I told you not to get too close.
But you cant take a good picture if you dont get this close.
When Minami answered bluntly while checking the picture she just took, the vice-president, Shinjiro Akagi, glared at Kim Yoo-sungs back as he was moving away.
A blessed child. He doesnt even know the lady likes him.
Oppa, I dont care if you dont like him personally, but you know you shouldnt make it obvious in front of her, right?
I know.
The two had been waiting serving Saionji Kumiko for a long time.
Maybe from the moment they were born.
The structure of the store is interesting.
I answered, rummaging through the menu.
Its because the room is narrow. I was trying to make space but even if I seat on a different one, we will still be next to each other.
After deciding on the menu, I handed it to the president and asked.
What would you like to have?
Then the president read the menu names one by one.
Tonkotsu ramen3Tonkotsu ramen is a ramen dish with a soup broth is based on pork bones and other ingredients, topped with sliced pork belly and served with ramen noodles that are hard in the center., miso ramen4Miso ramen has a broth that combines copious miso and is blended with oily chicken or fish broth and sometimes with tonkotsu or lard to create a thick, nutty, slightly sweet and very hearty soup., Shio ramen5Shio ramen has a pale, clear, yellowish broth made with plenty of salt and any combination of chicken, vegetables, fish, and seaweed., Tsukemen6Tsukemen is a ramen dish in Japanese cuisine consisting of noodles which are eaten after being dipped in a separate bowl of soup or broth.?
My personal recommendation is Shio Ramen. I heard that women like it a lot because it tastes neat.
Then the president decided after much consideration.
Then Ill have Shio Ramen.
Even the president decided on the menu, so I ordered Tonkotsu ramen and Shio ramen from the employee who was passing by.
It seemed that it would take about 10 minutes for the ramen to come out, so I asked the president for her understanding and got up from my seat.
I need to go to the bathroom for a second.
All right. See you later.
After getting permission, I headed to the bathroom to do my business.
***
Growl-
Ugh!
Shinjiro Akagi, who was secretly watching the lady entering the ramen shop with Kim Yoo-sung, frowned at the sudden sound.
He asked Minami, who was watching the store with him.
Na, Can I go to the bathroom for a second?
What? Suddenly?
I think the cream bread I ate in the car was bad.
Grooowl-
His legs naturally entangled due to the growing stomach-ache.
Minami shook her head and said to him, who looked unusual.
Oh, yeah, be careful. Hurry up and go. I think we still have time before the lady and Kim Yoo-sung move to the next location.
Thank you
Groooowl!
Ugh!
There was no time for further hesitation.
Shinjiro Akagi, who received his sisters permission, immediately headed to the bathroom on the second floor and entered the toilet.
About five minutes later.
It was when he was about to go out, after he had put out all the urgent fire.
-Shaaaa!
He heard someone washing their hands outside.
Of course, Shinjiro, who thought it would be one of the guests, poured down the toilet and came out of the toilet without much thought.
Huh?
However, the moment he saw the familiar back with his eyes, his body hardened like a rock.
Because Kim Yoo-sung, the target that he and his sister had to secretly monitor, was standing right in front of his nose.
Kim Yoo-sung, who was washing his hands, said with a surprised look, when he saw his reflection in the mirror,
Vice-president?
Shinjiro Akagi realized that the tailing was ruined.
