Reborn In Tokyo After Picking Up Sayu Who Ran Away From Home

   Chapter 28 Two or three things about convenience stores

  Friday

   Kato Yusuke went to the convenience store as usual after school.

First, he replenished all the missing items, and then checked whether there was oden soaked in the cooking pot for an extended period of time; then he turned on the electric fryer, and threw the chicken skewers, chicken chops and the like into it, and cleaned it as he went. I was refilling the fried food while I was on the coffee machine.

  Takada Shiori was in charge of the cash register.

   By the time Kato Yusuke finished all this, more than an hour had passed, and it was still a while before the white-collar workers in the neighborhood got off work.

   So he also stood in front of the cashier and began to act as a mascot.

   "Thank you~! This is for you!"

  Takada Shiori, with a straightforward smile on his face, handed over a cup of iced milk tea and motioned him to take it.

   "Thank you." Kato Yusuke took his hand, took out his wallet from his pocket, and asked her, "How much?"

   "No need, such a little thing."

  Takada Shiori waved his hand, glanced around secretly, and whispered in Kato Yusuke's ear.

   "Also, Kato-kun has been very hard lately. It's really not good to encounter phone scams or something, so I said..."

   Her expression became a little twisted, her ten fingers in front of her belly were also twisted together shyly, her eyes wandering and she did not dare to look at Kato Yusuke.

   "That...don't look at me like this, I saved a lot of money before. If Kato-kun has any difficulties...you can come to me at any time..."

   After she stammered and finished speaking, the girl's face was already red to the root of her neck, and she looked very cute.

   Kato Yusuke was stunned for a moment, then he remembered the "gentleman's agreement" with Mr. Tanaka the other day, and his face became extremely exciting.

   (Speaking of which, Uncle Tanaka still owes me 2000 yen.)

   This was his first thought.

   (Takata's misunderstanding seems to be getting deeper and deeper.)

   This was his second thought.

   "Cough, that, Takada..."

   Kato Yusuke cleared his throat, then opened his mouth to speak, but was interrupted.

   "Shori..." Takada Shiro said in a low voice, with a layer of crimson dyed on his exposed skin: "Shori... that's enough."

"Aha?"

   Kato Yusuke looked at her puzzled.

   "...That's why!" Takada Shiori took a deep breath and stared at him with moist eyes, "Just call me Shiori! After all...we've all experienced that kind of thing..."

   The sound gradually decreased until it was barely audible.

   Something like that? what?

   Kato Yusuke's thoughts were stagnant for three seconds, and various images flashed in his mind, like a wild horse that ran away on the road of Qiu Mingshan.

   "What!" Takada Shiori's expression showed dissatisfaction, and Violet's eyes were fixed on Kato Yusuke's eyes: "You have done that kind of thing to others... That was my first kiss."

  The brain resumes thinking.

   (It seems that I am the one being forced.)

   Thinking of this, Kato Yusuke couldn't help but sighed inwardly, looked at Takada Shiori and said, "Takada, let's talk."

   "You can just call me Shiori..."

   "That won't work—" Kato Yusuke shook his head, his ink-like eyes looked at Shiori Takada without evading, and asked word by word, "Do you like me?"

   "You, you, you, what are you talking about!?"

   Subconsciously wanting to deny it, Takada Shirou's face quickly turned red like a pot of hot water that was just boiled.

   "That, that kind of thing!" Her eyes fluctuated violently, then lowered her head, and murmured like a gnat, "Don't say it here..."

   A moment of silence fell between the two.

   After a few seconds, there was a long sigh in the air.

"sorry."

   Kato Yusuke said.

   "...Eh?" Takada Shiori trembled and raised his head involuntarily: "What...? Why are you apologizing...?"

   Another sigh.

   "Do I have to make it clear?"

   His dark eyes stared at her quietly, and Kato Yusuke's words were like a basin of cold water pouring on Takada Shiori's head.

   pat pat pat.

   Water droplets began to hit the window little by little, and it started raining at some point outside the window.

"…I'm going back."

   After a long silence, Takada Shiori said in a low voice.

   ignored Kato Yusuke's reaction and saw her head down and hurriedly walking out.

   Kato Yusuke reached out to stop her.

"What does it mean…"

   Takada Shiori's voice trembled as if he was suppressing something.

   "Bring this at least."

   Kato Yusuke took an umbrella from the shelf beside him.

  Cold tears fell from her eyes and hit Kato Yusuke's arm wetly. The girl slowly raised her head.

   What caught his eye was a pair of red eyes.

   "People like you... the worst!!"

  Takada Shiori took the umbrella and at the same time reached out and grabbed the frozen milk tea on the table, and threw it towards Kato Yusuke.

  Wash la la—

The    drink mixed with ice cubes was poured on Kato Yusuke's face, and then flowed down his face.

   He stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, staring at the girl who disappeared in the rain, with no joy or sadness in his eyes.

  It will probably stop soon.

   Kato Yusuke thought so, then picked up a rag and cleaned up the surrounding area.

At night.

   "Ah? Why are you alone? Where is Takada?"

  Mr. Tanaka in a raincoat walked into the store and asked Yusuke Kato who was alone in the store.

   "She wasn't feeling well, so she went back first."

   Kato Yusuke explained.

"yes?"

   Mr. Tanaka nodded, took off his raincoat, shook vigorously on the ground in front of the door, and said to Yusuke Kato with emotion.

   "It's really raining today!"

   Kato Yusuke glanced out the window, only to see the afternoon drizzle like a cow's feather, and now it has completely changed into a different look. The heavy rain poured down like it was falling, bouncing on the ground with a crackling sound.

   Facts proved that he miscalculated, the rain not only did not stop, but has a tendency to intensify.

   "It's a little troublesome."

   Kato Yusuke murmured, his eyes stopped for a moment on the sold out shelf, where the umbrellas were originally placed.

   It seems that we can only wait for the rain to lighten before going back.

   He looked up at the sky with this thought in mind, his eyes were a little distracted, so that he didn't realize the person beside him.

  Tattoo—

   "This gentleman."

   A light voice rang in his ears.

   "You look troubled?"

   Kato Yusuke turned his head, and what appeared in his eyes was a cute girl in uniform.

   "It's raining so hard."

   The girl said with a smile, looking at the boy with an indescribable joy in her eyes.

   She walked to Kato Yusuke with an umbrella, raised the umbrella over the heads of the two of them, and put the other hand on Kato Yusuke's arm, looked at the boy with frowning eyes, and said softly.

   "Go back, dinner is ready."

"it is good."

   Looking at the girl leaning on him, Kato Yusuke responded with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

   "Sayu."

   Thanks for the recommendation ticket and monthly ticket!

   Thank you for the reward of [I don't know the music and know the music at the first time]!
