Chapter 99: Chapter 98: Dinner Date (1)

The grandeur architectural design of the place, magnificent pendant light hanging in the ceiling, shrouded by the wonderful cantaloupe radiance, along with the artistic furniture designs. Following that, the luxurious peaceful atmosphere of the place is suffocating me...

WHAT THE HELL!

We’re in a french cuisine restaurant just by looking at the name outside. Upon entering the place, we received a lot of polite greetings from some old man who recognizes Yuki on our way here. While on our way here, I saw myself in the mirror. Looking at myself, I would say that my perfectly fits clothes right now compliment the shape and proportions of my body, instead of my oversized clothes which gave me a more skinny look.

Should I wear these kinds of clothes more?

Honestly, this is very comfy.

“A pleasant evening, Hatsumi-sama. I shall guide you to your table, this way, please.”

Our appointed server was a female, who seems to be a friendly person. As she’s guiding us, I saw some people who are in the same age range as us having a date. Although some of them seem familiar to me, for some reason. Especially the guy, who got curly chestnut hair, light brown eyes, and a pair of earrings in both of his ears. On top of that, he’s excluding an aura of a spoiled rich brat. Being accompanied by two girls older than him, perhaps college students, the three were happily flirting with each other.

Where did I see him...?

He seems familiar, but I can’t recognize him. As I’m following the server, I stroke my chin while contemplating on it. Something about him irritates me, I don’t know why. Like what I feel about Nagasawa, both of them irritate me. Who the heck is that guy.

“Here are your seats.”

“Thank you.” Yuki thanked her.

“It’s my pleasure.”

Taking our seats, it’s so uncomfortable being here. I feel like I’m an outsider since I can see some influential people dining in here. At first, I thought Naoki would be the same but watching her, I could say that she’s very used to this kind of stuff. Because of that, I feel left out.

“Tatsu, look at the scenery.” Naoki pointed out to the glass window. We’re sitting beside a huge glass window where the radiance of the wonderful lights of Tokyo is in full view. The enthralling skyline scenery up here was to behold. No wonder people like to visit here. It’s truly a majestic place to behold and appreciate the city itself.

“It’s beautiful.”

“Right? I enjoy going in here to sort things in my mind.” Yuki said with a beautiful, entrancing smile, as she watches the scenery with us. Watching her smile, filling my heart with joy and I let out a genuine smile.

“So, how’s gramps now, Yu-chan?”

“He’s still kicking ass, alive and well.”

“Hahaha, that’s good to hear.” I chuckled.

“I made a promise to him that once things are good, I will bring you to him,” Yuki said while still staring outside, but when she said that her face turned serious. Her long eyelashes are so beautiful...

“Okay, I hope that will be, eventually.”

“Rest assure, I will take care of it.”

“If you say so.”

Then we continued conversing with each other until the food arrives. After a few minutes, the food arrived without taking our order. I supposed Yuki ordered it before going here. Who am I to complain it’s free.

────── ✯ ──────

After finishing our dinner, I went to the bathroom. I must say, even the bathroom looks expensive here. Washing my hands in the sink, I saw my own reflection in the mirror once again. I should’ve worn the necktie, I think it will look good in my getup.

After washing my hands, I went out of the bathroom. Upon leaving the bathroom, I saw a familiar face sitting at a table alongside his family. It was Arima, sitting alongside his parents, a girl whom I think that’s his little sister, plus his older brother whom he mentioned one time when we talked about the white envelope. Honestly, they’re all good-looking.

Do I greet him?

Or not?

Meh, I’ll just greet him.

I have gone off there with my foot. As I’m approaching their table the little sister noticed my presence. She stopped eating as she watches me get closer to their table. Not only her but also the father and mother, only Arima and his older brother didn’t notice me.

“Hey, Arima.” I greeted him from the back.

“Hm?” Arima turned to his back.

Upon seeing my face, he exclaimed in surprise. “Oh! Okita! What are you doing here? Are you eating with your family too?”

“No, I’m with Naoki and Yuki. Yuki suddenly wants to eat here for dinner, so I just got hooked up.”

“A date?”

I chortled. “You could say so—Anyway, I apologize for disturbing your dinner with my sudden arrival. Let me introduce myself. I’m Okita Tatsuya, a classmate, and friend of Arima. Sorry, for the inconvenience.” I bowed to them apologetically, for the inconvenience that I caused them.

“Oh, no no no, it’s not. I’m glad that one of his friends greeted him.” Arima’s mother responded.

“Yeah, young man, don’t sweat the insignificant details.” Then his father added.

Though during that, Arima’s face saddens while forcing himself to smile. That’s one of the most obvious fake smiles Arima made in front of me. Then I replied. “Thank you.”

Then they started introducing themselves to me. The father’s name was Arima Tao and his wife’s name was Arima Masuyo, he’s an office worker while the mother was a housewife. The next one would be the little sister. She was full of energy when she introduced herself, Arima Megumi, a second-year middle schooler.

And, the last one was the older brother, Arima Shigeko. Also, the way he introduced himself was so fake, his sentences have so many read between the lines such as the way he introduced himself as a working model for a company I’ve never heard, trying to imply his status to me, or saying that he’s famous. Listening to him, I wonder how Arima tolerates this kind of behavior. I would probably lose my mind with him. During his older brother’s talk, I could see Arima casting his head down, trying not to listen to his brother’s shenanigans.

“Are you a model too?” Shigeko-san asked me.

“No.”

“Seriously? What a waste of looks, I can recommend you in my agency, the pay is good too.”

“Sorry, not interested. I’m not really in lack of money.” Truth to be told, Yuki could probably buy the whole company you’re currently working with, right now. That’s how scary her family household is. And, even without Yuki, I’m not fond of modeling or fame. I’d rather have a peaceful life where people wouldn’t bother me.

“Ehh? What a waste... With your looks you can easily be famous, I could assure you that the girls will be over you.” Still trying to persuade me.

“Ha haha ha, that’s too much of a hassle. I don’t really care about fame.”

“Fine... But, if you change your mind call me, as a handsome fellow.” with a smile on his face. He's inspecting me from head to toe, analyzing if I'm wearing some expensive articles of clothing. Upon confirming that I'm wearing some expensive stuff, he immediately became friendly—Two-Faced, he's that kind of person; I bet.

“Hahaha, sure do.”

Then Arima’s little sister interjected, asking me a question. “Are you half-blood?”

“Yes, my mother is half-British.”

“Ohhh, so cool.”

After that, the father followed a question. “You’re really here with a date? Not with your parents?”

“Ah, yes.”

“Just how much is your allowance to afford this? I would only bring my family on special occasions.”

“Oh, my allowance is only small.”

“Huh, then how?”

Instead of me, Arima answered in my stead with a proud look on his face. “Because his girlfriend is the heir of the Hatsumi clan.” then he winked at me like he did something amazing. His face earlier was mixed with sadness, but when that question came, he suddenly spoke with his cheerful tone. What’s wrong with this guy.

“EH?” they said all together, staring at me, stupefied.

“Yes... She’s the one who bought me here.”

“O-Oh! I-I see...”

With the awkward atmosphere enveloping in here, I had the urge of leaving them. One thing, the source of this atmosphere, Arima, he’s not affected by it as he’s eating leisurely. For the love of God, why did this guy do that?

Sometimes, I don’t get his train of thought. Moreover, his brother who had this proud look earlier was averting his gaze, trying to avoid me. What’s with this guy? Earlier, he’s so friendly, and now, he’s avoiding me. Quite a weird family.

Then I excused myself. “I shall excuse myself. I need to go back. I apologize for the inconvenience once again. Have a pleasant dinner and night. Nice to meet you all.”

Before I leave, I looked into Arima’s eyes. Obviously, he knew he got some explaining to do with me once we’re back at school. I don’t know the reason he had gone through many phases of emotions while his parents are talking to me, but I got a feeling it’s related to his brother.

I waved my hands while smiling at them.

────── ✯ ──────

As I was going back to the seat, I saw Naoki and Yuki’s infuriated faces because of a guy sitting in my spot while talking to them. It was the same guy whom I’m trying to remember earlier. Naoki and Yuki were getting hit on by that guy. Quite a pain in the ass, why do these people trying their luck with them when they’re clearly rejecting you outright with their facial expressions.

Another piece of shit that needs to be getting taken care of.

Time to work.
