-Lunch time-
“…”
A cold sweat breaks out.
The emotions that surround me right now are none other than worry, anxiety, and nervousness.
Why?
“…”
Oh Sana Najimi, because she was showing signs of getting back into action.
***
It started from yesterday.
She starts glancing at me.
At first, it didn’t matter much.
I just thought I would have seen it because I was curious to see Satou Ichikawa keep saying strange things in some strange language.
Even when Ichika Satou wasn’t there, she glanced at me several times, but at the time I ignored it for the same reason.
But the problem came after that. So, it was from today.
I started to get a little anxious around the second period.
Since she stared at me as I entered class in the morning, the frequency with which she became more frequent. And with time, the same actions as yesterday were being repeated.
Anxiety began with doubt.
These actions of her were actually to catch my pod through information gathering.
Again, I began to suspect that it was a sign that he was going to do crazy things like last time through him.
Anxiety that won’t go away even if you try to shake it off.
After such anxieties and worries piled up, now it’s lunch time.
My worry and anxiety. And the nervousness was only going to raise the tax even more.
Because she was standing far away and staring at me.
A gaze that does not stop even though I gave attention little by little.
“……”
Ha…
No matter what her actual intentions were, I didn’t want to break out in a cold sweat worrying about this behavior any longer.
It was also rude to look at me like that in the first place.
So I started looking for a solution.
A peaceful solution would have been better.
Usually, if it is a peaceful solution, the solution through dialogue will be the first thing that comes to mind.
But… I had no idea what it would be like to talk to him.
Because the conversation was dismissed.
Then the solution is…
***
Success.
She turns her attention elsewhere and then leaves.
“After…”
The solution I wrote was simple. I began to look at her as she was, putting on her face.
I know you are watching, so please stop staring.
She was a girl who didn’t budge at first, but she didn’t give up and eventually she was able to achieve success.
“…”
Something, albeit with success.
I want to know what this is.
“Ha…”
Anyway, I am worried about the future.
***
“…Go to Arisil!”
“”Yes!””
The ceremony is over.
Fortunately, for the rest of the time Osana Najimi didn’t pay any attention to me.
It seems that my message has been clearly received.
“After…”
“Let’s go, Shujinko-kun.”
There was one guy who didn’t work even if he delivered his doctor, but fortunately he didn’t seem to be that shameless.
Or it could have been because he had a really different intention, so he caught my gaze and stopped at that point.
I couldn’t even imagine what his intentions were yet.
“Yes.”
I started walking with Inazuke.
Today, Sato Ichika also bombarded me with questions.
Still, with fewer questions than yesterday, fortunately, I was able to avoid teaching non-stop like yesterday, though.
Today, apart from the questions and answers related to Korean, we shared several other stories.
Mostly on the culture side. So, things like fashion, music, trends, and diet.
I also knew very little about trends or pop songs in this world, so the only thing I could confidently tell you was about my diet.
Things like whether Koreans really eat kimchi at every meal or whether they are crazy about spicy food.
And I said yes to all of these.
She wondered if I was misunderstanding my answer.
Come to think of it, I think it was a very unusual diet.
“Hmm…”
Because of my diet, I think…
“What are you thinking, Shujinko?”
As she was walking down the street, she asked me with a troubled look.
Her tilt Her tilt was annoying, but I told her her honest answer.
“It’s just that it seems like it’s been a while since I haven’t eaten Korean food.”
I don’t think I’ve ever eaten it since I was in this life.
“Hey-, eh? Shujinkoo-kun, have you ever eaten Korean food?”
She questions my words.
It was also a question we could have because we had been close for such a long time.
I gave her an honest answer this time too.
“Oh, there was. A lot.”
Before you were even born.
Interpretation is free.
“Is it…Was it…?”
Hmm… Good!
I think the exam is over, tomorrow is also Saturday, I should take this opportunity to go to Shin-Okubo and try some k-food for the first time in a while.
It’s Korean food for the first time in 17 years…
The anticipation has already started to rise.
“hehehehe…”
“…You look evil when you smile, Shujinkoo-kun.”
She looks scared.
“…”
…?
Uh…?
Wait.
Wait wait wait.
No.
What is it?
No.
Huh?
What is it really?
“Hey.”
“Huh?”
“You… Why didn’t you go to the club?”
Why are you here? No way. Isn’t it? Today is the first day of the club. You should have gone to the club.

“Please…”
Please say no. Please tell me I forgot.
And.
“Shujinko-kun,”
If you listen to her expression and voice, you can hear her sound like thunder from the clear sky, as if she is filming her romance.
“I knew from the beginning that Shujinko-kun was going to return home. Did you think I wouldn’t know?”
“…”
hahahahaha…
hahahaha…
“Ha…”
…Wasn’t it just me? Was I just excited?
hahahaha…Ha…
f*ck.
***
-The next day-
“…”
The scenery outside the window changes every moment.
B. No, ‘we’ were moving by train towards Shin-Okubo as planned yesterday.
The reason it was ‘us’ was none other than that Iinazuke was sitting next to me.
Originally, since I was young, whenever I went somewhere, he was the guy who followed me, so now it’s not that strange.
Also, lately, he’s been craving less and less, so I didn’t think it would be too much of a hassle to take him with him, so I readily accepted his request to accompany him.
At this point, I had the idea of teasing him with a spicy taste that I had never experienced before. …Actually, this was the main one.
Do you think you will personally tell him about the spiciness of Koreans…
A smile came naturally.
“hehehe…”
It’s yesterday’s revenge.
“Your smile makes me feel bad, Shujinkoo-kun.”
“…”
I’ll see you later.
***
“Oh…”
“Hey-.”
I have arrived at Shin-Okubo.
Korean signs are visible everywhere.
Although Japanese signboards accounted for the majority, it was a fairly fresh experience in itself.
Looking at the clock, it was already late lunch time.
I need to eat lunch. Absolutely spicy food. Must.
I absolutely have no other intentions. No no It’s because I’m craving something spicy today. Anyway, it was.
I immediately took Inazuke and headed to the spicy chicken rib restaurant I had found out in advance.
Iinazuke is following me without knowing anything.
It’s pitiful, but there is malice.
***
“…”
“…”
“…What?”
Why does he eat so well?
It’s strange. There was no way this would happen.
I didn’t order anything spicy.
According to the bar I found out in advance, I ordered it to be as spicy as possible to the extent that I can enjoy it.
That doesn’t mean the spicy was wrong. I know because I ate it too. That it came out correctly.
“…”
Sure.
That guy is digesting the spicy level of fire chicken casually.
That is also the guy who has never properly eaten anything spicy.
“…”
“Why aren’t you eating, Shujinko?”
“…That’s it.”
Let’s just eat a lot of delicious food and go back.
***
-Late evening. Inside the train.-
Today’s dinner was pork belly.
Well, it was just the taste I knew.
Still, maybe it was because I ate it after a long time, but it felt more delicious than what I remembered.
Iinazuke seemed to like the pork belly quite a bit too.
Judging from the fact that he ate quite deliciously, if not as much, I wonder if this guy was actually born in Korea.
The same goes for eating spicy food well.
Before we ate pork belly. So, even after eating chicken ribs, I couldn’t just sit still.
There were various experiences of Korean culture – mainly food culture – and shopping.
In the meantime, I had a chance to enter a Korean cosmetics store, and only then did I find out the identity of Sato Ichika’s makeup method.
I never thought it would be Korean-style makeup… There was a reason why it looked familiar.
“Haam…”
…
Aside from that, since I went around various places all day today, it consumed a lot of stamina.
I can even hear the sound of the train…
I started to get sleepy little by little.
“…”
***
Yoji Inazuke.
She sat beside herself and looked at her childhood friend, who had fallen off the beaten path today.
The head shakes as the train shakes.
She carefully lifted her hand and supported his head.
I leaned on her shoulder.
***
It’s Monday.
In the break of the 3rd period, while I was talking with Kurutta, Sasaki Yuna approached me.
“…?”
“…”
She opens her mouth as if she is trying to say something, but then shuts it up.
After that, I just stood still.
“…”
I’m embarrassed…
So she is embarrassed by her eccentricity, so she goes back to her own place.
“…?”
What..?
Kurutta couldn’t understand her situation, so she just wondered what the beautiful girl-sama had just done.
