Living in Tokyo, starting with a lifestyle-related job

Or perhaps I'm overthinking it, and that Kamishiro-kun is just giving me a normal look?

Chitanda Mirai is currently very troubled.

I have absolutely no idea what the correct answer is.

I just think I need to take a good look and analyze whether Kamishiro-kun really likes mature older women!

Suddenly, Junko Urahara, who had been silent all along, suggested:

"Rather than discussing."

Wouldn't it be faster to just ask the person directly?

Erina Kamishiro, Mirai Chitanda, and Rika Maejima were all stunned.

Rika Maejima shook her head helplessly and said:

"If it were that simple, that would be great."

"And if I were to actually ask Kamishiro-kun, and he said to his face that he didn't like my type, then there would really be no hope."

Chitanda Mirai also found her words very reasonable and agreed:

"Yes, it is."

"If you don't ask, there's still a chance to salvage the situation; if you do ask, there's really no going back."

Suddenly, Erina Kamishiro felt an urge to ask a question, and stared intently at Rika Maejima as she inquired:

"By the way, Rinka-chan, how did Onii-chan reject you back then? Can you tell me?"

Chitanda Mirai immediately became interested and turned to look at Maejima Rika.

Although she had heard it from Kamishiro-kun before.

But men and women have different perspectives, so you might be able to get some useful information from them.

Rika Maejima thought Erina was asking her this question to help her, and she immediately became excited and quickly explained the situation.

"The reason that Kamishiro rejected me at the time was that he didn't really want to be in a relationship right now."

"And she even said she just wanted to study hard."

Kamishiro Erina said in astonishment:

"Is there nothing else besides these?"

Maejima Rika shook her head and said:

"Nothing."

Erina Kamishiro was somewhat incredulous:

"Did Onii-chan really reject you like that?"

"Using this excuse that you only want to study?"

Rika Maejima nodded and said:

"Yes."

Chitanda Mirai fell into deep thought.

It turned out to be the case.

No wonder Rika Maejima is still pursuing Hakufuu Kamishiro.

It seems that it was because Shiro Shiro didn't refuse completely.

They simply used the things they wanted to learn now as a way to refuse.

In a sense, saying this makes the rejected girl feel like she still has a chance.

I guess that's how Rika Maejima is.

Erina Kamishiro, however, was somewhat annoyed.

Bai Feng, if you're going to refuse, at least refuse completely!

Using this reason, it seems like you're giving others false hope, doesn't it?

No wonder Pear Blossom Sauce still likes you!

Junko Urahara scratched her head.

Shouldn't we be focusing on learning now, rather than these other things?

If she doesn't study, she'll play video games.

Junko Urahara gently tapped Mirai Chitanda.

Chitanda Mirai looked at her curiously and asked:

"what happened?"

Junko Urahara asked:

"If I don't study, Junko wants to play video games!"

Chitanda Mirai stared blankly for a moment, then burst into laughter:

"Sorry, it really is time for me to study."

"Let's talk later then. Let's focus on our studies now."

She knew these topics had been discussed enough.

It takes time to digest and analyze this.

As for other questions, let's ask them later.

Erina Kamishiro and Rika Maejima tacitly avoided bringing up the topic again.

They are still pondering what type of girl Shiro Shiro likes.

Time ticked by.

Erina Kamishiro and the others are still studying diligently.

at this time.

Suddenly, a thumping sound came from the stairs.

Junko Urahara's ears and nose twitched slightly, and she immediately knew who was behind the footsteps.

I could also smell the aroma of food.

She exclaimed excitedly:

"Kamidai-kun is here!"

"They even brought food!"

Upon hearing that Shirofumi Kamishiro was about to come up, Rika Maejima, Mirai Chitanda, and Erina Kamishiro all perked up.

Without realizing it, everyone adjusted their somewhat slouching posture.

When Shiro Kaede brought up two plates, she noticed a large pile of books and notebooks on the table in front of them.

It seems everyone is studying diligently.

However, compared to the other three, Shiro Kaede was more concerned about Erina.

Because this girl really didn't study very seriously before, and she was quite perfunctory in her studies.

I've been studying more and more seriously lately.

They even came over to ask Chitanda about her future studies.

Not bad, not bad.

That certainly deserves praise.

Kamishiro Shiro said to them:

"Let's learn it later."

"Let's tidy up the table and have something to eat first."

Upon hearing this, the four of them tidied up everything on the table.

Junko Urahara was the happiest. As soon as she finished cleaning up, she quickly got up, took the plate from Shiro Kaede Kamishiro, and placed it on the table.

Without saying a word, he picked up his portion and began to eat heartily.

Erina Kamishiro has been studying for quite some time now, and it just so happens to be lunchtime.

I was already quite hungry.

Upon seeing the dinner and parfait on the table, they happily began to eat.

Because Shiro Shiro usually doesn't go home after school in the afternoon.

Even she and her aunt had hardly ever eaten dinner cooked by Bai Feng.

It's the kind of food you want to eat but can't.

If we could eat in the restaurant now, that would be the best thing.

That way, I won't have to order takeout as soon as I get home.

Chitanda Mirai didn't eat immediately, but first expressed her gratitude:

"Thank you, Kamishiro-kun."

Shiro Shiro shook his hand:

"No need, it's more like I'm thanking you."

"After all, you're the one teaching Erina now."

As he spoke, he gently rubbed Erina's head.

Erina Kamishiro didn't say anything when her head was rubbed; instead, she happily continued eating, occasionally squinting her eyes as if she was enjoying it.

Rika Maejima didn't eat right away, but watched the scene with envy and anticipation.

Shiro Shiro also noticed the gaze, but only silently looked at her for a few seconds.
