Not long after, the taxi stopped in front of the shopping mall. Aragaki Jun took Takada Mitsuru's hand and got out of the car, and accompanied her into the mobile phone store.

The girl's budget for buying a mobile phone was 50,000 yen, which was the money that Aragaki Jun won from playing pachinko. That day, he forced her not to count it as a debt and watched her keep accounts.

Mitsuru Takada had very low requirements for mobile phones. She thought the models introduced by the salesperson were all OK and wanted to buy the cheapest one.

But Aragaki Jun just stood by and pointed and asked others to take out a very expensive new model.

"Aragaki-kun, the functions of these smartphones are similar. I don't want something that expensive."

"Uh... I just wanted to change my phone, so I'll take a closer look... take a closer look."

The reason given by Aragaki Jun was very far-fetched, but Takada Mitsuru was still patient and accompanied him to look at them one by one.

On this island country, high school students compete with each other very seriously, and many of them choose to engage in compensated dating in order to buy new mobile phones.

Because Takada Mitsuru is timid, Aragaki Jun doesn't want her to be looked down upon at school, so he wants to buy her the latest mobile phone.

Realizing his intention, Takada Mitsuru did not refute immediately, but waited until he made his choice before delivering the fatal blow:

"Aragaki-kun, you want to change your phone, why don't you buy the latest model? I can just use your old one."

"Huh? No!"

"Why not? I've used your phone before and it feels pretty good. Are you reluctant to let me use it?"

"Not really, it's just..."

Aragaki Jun pretended to take out his cell phone, but as soon as his fingers loosened, the phone fell to the ground with a bang!

“Aragaki-kun, you——!”

Takada Mitsuru naturally understood what was going on. She hurriedly picked up her phone from the ground and looked at the long cracks on the screen. She was so angry that her eyes turned red:

"What do you want to do?! If you don't want me to use it, then forget it. But why did you throw it?"

"Sorry, my brain just short-circuited. There is no other way, so..."

Aragaki Jun just came up with a clever idea in a hurry. Although it was not a clever idea, he was really forced into a corner:

"Meizuru, I have no ill intentions, I just want to buy you something better."

"I don't need it, I just want what I'm supposed to have."

Takada Mitsuru pursed her lips stubbornly and for the first time looked at Aragaki Jun without dodging. In the end, Aragaki Jun couldn't hold it anymore and chose to raise his hands in surrender.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault. I shouldn't have made the decision for you without your permission."

"..."

Takada Mitsuru received an apology from Aragaki Jun. Normally, she had already won and she should have acted happy, but the girl suddenly started crying.

In silence, the girl wiped away her tears with her hands, but the tears kept flowing and could not be wiped away. Even the figure of Aragaki Jun in her sight became blurred:

"No... Aragaki-kun, it's not like that. I don't want you to do this! I... don't want you to make a decision for me. I... actually like it. It's just... I want you to tell me clearly. Explain it to me in person."

Chapter 53 Light Gray Hairband

"Is that so... I understand."

Aragaki Jun looked at the girl who was crying like a kitten, walked up to her, hugged her, and buried her cheek in his chest:

"I'm sorry, I didn't explain it to you clearly just now. I asked you to buy a better phone, but I actually had selfish motives."

"What...selfishness?"

"You left your family and lived with me. I wanted the people around you to truly see the changes in you. You are different from the past..."

"No, they are not important."

"Indeed, they are not important, but I want you to have what they have. No matter what, you are no worse than others. I hope you can be more confident and don't wrong yourself."

Aragaki Jun gently comforted the girl. Takada Mitsuru felt his concern for her and gradually stopped crying.

The girl's crying just now attracted a lot of onlookers. The wild cat girl tugged at Aragaki Jun's sleeve and whispered, "Let's leave here."

Aragaki Jun held Takada Mitsuru's hand and accompanied her out of the mobile phone store, and rested for a while on the bench outside.

"Aragaki-kun, I'm fine. I'm sorry just now."

"What are you apologizing for? I only understand a lot of things after you tell me."

Aragaki Jun touched the girl's head and did not mention what happened just now. Instead, he pulled her into another mobile phone store.

Right now, Aragaki Jun's cell phone is no longer usable, so he is thinking of buying the same one as Takada Mitsuru. Although the girl didn't say it explicitly, it was obvious that she had the same idea.

The final models we chose were agreed upon by the two of us. The two machines cost a total of 150,000 yen, and we chose one black and one white.

After coming out of the mobile phone store, Takada Mitsuru's mood was obviously better. She held the new phone in her hands lovingly and walked with a smile on her face.

According to Aragaki Jun's plan, the next thing to do was to buy clothes for Takada Mitsuru, but the girl insisted on choosing a gift for Yukinoshita Yukino first, so Aragaki Jun let her do it.

"Yukinoshita-san is a wealthy woman, so you don't have to choose something too expensive. What matters is the thought behind it."

"Thoughts..."

Takada Mitsuru has been in a bad situation all along. She has no spare time to make friends, let alone buy gifts for others.

Aragaki Jun wanted to just buy some music boxes and crystal balls, but Takada Mitsuru disagreed and dragged him to visit several stores.

Finally, Takada Mitsuru chose a cute little trinket and Aragaki Jun bought a photo album.

"Aragaki-kun, are you just going to give me a photo album? That's a bit... too ordinary."

"She and I are just ordinary friends. This level is just right."

"I think you should give her something cute that girls will like."

"Isn't this album cute? Look at the cute kitten on the cover."

"Silly, when you give a girl a gift, don't you usually want her to keep it with her so that she can think of you often?"

Takada Mitsuru said this to Aragaki Jun, but no one knew what she was thinking. Aragaki Jun pretended not to hear and walked towards the vending machine not far away.

"..."

Mitsuru Takada looked at his handsome figure and bit her lips unconsciously, her heart felt like a ball of wool being scratched by a cat.

Aragaki Jun seemed to have noticed nothing. When he came back, he was holding two bottles of drinks in one hand, but he didn't give them to Takada Mitsuru immediately:

"Meizuru, which do you prefer, green tea or juice? I'll perform a magic trick for you."

"green tea."

Mitsuru Takada thought that Aragaki Jun wanted to play around, so she let him hide the drink behind him and fiddled with it quietly for a while.

"Now, I have a bottle of drink in each hand, which one do you want?"

"left."

Mitsuru Takada watched as Jun Aragaki took out the drink on the left, which turned out to be a bottle of juice. It was obvious that his magic had failed.

However, just as Takada Mitsuru reached out to take the juice, another bottle of green tea was placed in her hand, with a light gray hairband on it.

"Aragaki-kun, this is..."

"Hehe~ That's what you said. When you give a girl a gift, you should let her carry it with her so that she can always think of you, right~"

Aragaki Jun unscrewed the juice and gulped down half the bottle, seemingly not noticing the girl's expression of being moved to tears:

"How about the scrunchie I chose? It's very similar to the color of your hair."

"Idiot, there is no such thing as a hair band that is the same color as your hair."

Takada Mitsuru obviously didn't want to cry, but her heart was really moved, and tears fell down her face.

"Oh, why are you crying again? If others see you, they will think I am bullying you."

"You...are just bullying me."

Although Takada Mitsuru answered like this, she was still sobbing and trying to hold back her tears. Aragaki Jun leaned over to look at her and wiped her tears with a tissue.

However, when Aragaki Jun was halfway through wiping, the girl became too shy to bear it anymore and snatched the tissue to wipe her face herself.

Takada Mitsuku said that the color of the hairband bought by Aragaki Jun was not good, but seeing her put the hairband on her left wrist and carry it with her, it was obvious that she really liked this little gift.

The two found a place to rest for a while, and at Aragaki Jun's strong request, they finally went to the women's clothing area.

Takada Mitsuko thought that she wore school uniforms all day long, so there was no need to buy other clothes that she didn't wear often. But Aragaki Jun thought that her old clothes were too old and she needed to buy at least five sets of clothes.

The girl, who was used to being frugal, strongly protested against Aragaki Jun's extravagant behavior. After arguing with Aragaki Jun for a long time, she finally set a goal of buying three sets of clothes.

Mitsuru Takada seldom buys clothes, and even if she does, it is always in small shops on the street. She looks at the prices of clothes in the mall and goes to several stores without trying them on.

Of course Aragaki Jun would not agree. Although the clothes in the mall were very expensive, they did look good.

In order to force the wild cat girl to submit, Aragaki Jun simply sat on a chair in the fitting area and refused to leave:

"No, I'm tired. I'm dying of exhaustion. I can't walk anymore."

"How long have you been here?"

"No, I can't walk anymore. Just buy it in this store. It looks pretty good to me."

“This place… is too expensive!”

"Oh, clothes take a long time to wear. Look at that white dress. I think it suits you very well."

Aragaki Jun made no secret of his true purpose; he was throwing a tantrum here and refusing to leave just for that little white dress.

Takada Mitsuru pulled Aragaki Jun twice but failed to pull him away. The salesperson next to her looked at her and laughed. She was completely helpless.

"I'm just trying it out. If it doesn't fit, I definitely won't buy it!"

"Okay, okay, as long as you don't like it, I will definitely not force you."

Aragaki Jun sat on the chair, watching the girl shyly communicating with the salesperson, and grinned happily.

Such a beautiful white dress can only be worn by a petite and cute girl like Mitsuru Takada to make her look pitiful.

Wow cool wow cool~

Chapter 54: Takada Mitsuko's Classmate

Aragaki Jun had a good eye, and that white dress was the best-selling style recently. The wild cat girl actually liked it, but she had never worn a dress with a fluttering hem.
