Tokyo: Something's wrong with my label

Just because I heard that she and Aragaki Yasushi were classmates.

If they find out what happened to them today.

I guess I wish I could take my own life instead.

And while Takehara Maki was lying on the bed, continuing to think wildly.

Suddenly I heard someone knocking on the door.

Then, there was the sound of the key being inserted.

The next moment, Aragaki Jing opened the door and walked in.

Before Aragaki opened the door and came in, Takehara Maki had already gotten up from the bed and walked to the living room.

"Here, here's the rental contract."

Yasushi Aragaki handed a contract to Maki Takehara.

Then the two sat on the sofa.

Although there are still three years left in high school, Maki Takehara plans to sign a one-year contract first and then renew it next year.

Therefore, the contract that Aragaki Jing brought also filled in a one-year lease.

After filling in all the information.

After Maki Takehara browsed it carefully and determined that there was no problem, he hesitated for a moment and signed his name on the contract.

Yasushi Aragaki took the backup and handed a box of keys to Takehara Maki.

"Here are all the keys to this room."

"If you are worried, you can change the door lock yourself."

Takehara Maki shook her head: "No need."

Maki Takehara believes that Yasushi Aragaki is not that kind of person.

Although Aragaki Jing does not look like a good student on the outside, but looks like a bad boy, he brought her to his apartment with evil intentions and ulterior motives.

However, Takehara Maki still believed in Aragaki Yasushi.

In addition, maybe deep down in his heart, Takehara Maki was looking forward to something.

"In that case, I'll leave first. Takehara-san, please rest early."

Aragaki Jing stood up and prepared to leave.

"that……"

Takehara Maki stopped Aragaki Yasushi.

"I haven't paid the rent yet."

"There are only a few days left in this month. Wait until the beginning of next month to hand it over. Just think of it as a few days given to you by me."

Aragaki Jing behaved very generously.

From his point of view, this is indeed the case.

Since it's already discounted so much, it doesn't really matter if I give it away for free for a few more days.

After all, the discounted rent is less than one-third of the original price.

"This……"

Takehara Maki was a little silent.

And just when Aragaki Jing was about to leave.

Takehara Maki said: "Aragaki-san, you haven't had dinner yet. How about I invite you to dinner?"

Takehara Maki silently calculated his living expenses.

She found that after Aragaki Yasushi gave her a rent discount, she had plenty of money.

At the very least, if you treat Aragaki Yasushi to dinner, it shouldn’t be a big problem...

As long as you don't go to expensive places.

Takehara Maki suddenly became a little uneasy.

What should I do if Aragaki-san dislikes the place I chose?

"Dinner?"

Aragaki Jing was slightly startled.

"Why don't you buy something and make it yourself."

"It won't cost you anything."

"Okay."

Takehara Maki felt relieved and agreed happily.

Afterwards, the two left the apartment and walked towards a convenience store near the apartment.

That convenience store is where Takehara Maki works part-time on weekdays.

Walking into the store, the sound of wind chimes on the door sounded.

"welcome."

A woman of college age raised her head and looked at the two people who entered the store.

"Hey, Maki-chan."

"Sister Yoko."

Takehara Maki greeted the female clerk whom she called Sister Yoko.

"Maki-chan, this is..."

The female clerk looked at Aragaki Yasushi.

"Come shopping with your boyfriend?"

"Sister Yoko."

Takehara Maki complained.

But there wasn't much disgust on his face.

"Okay, okay, little Maki wants to buy something, so go check it out with your little boyfriend."

The female clerk laughed teasingly at Takehara Maki, and then said hello to Aragaki Yasushi.

The female clerk's eyes showed a bit of surprise.

She didn't expect Aragaki Yasushi's appearance to be so handsome.

"It's a pity that he is too young. I don't know if he likes the Nian Shang style."

The female clerk thought in her mind.

Aragaki Yasushi didn't pay attention to her. After saying hello to her, he followed Takehara Maki to choose the food.

Chapter 68 Takehara Maki can’t look straight into her heart

The two shuttled between the shelves of the convenience store, Aragaki Yasu followed closely behind Takehara Maki, watching her skillfully select ingredients.

Her figure shuttled between the shelves, and she was basically familiar with the location of everything. It seemed that she was quite serious when she worked part-time in the store.

"Do you want curry tonight?"

Takehara Maki picked up a box of curry paste, looked back at Aragaki Yasushi, and asked for his opinion.

Aragaki looked at the curry paste in her hand and nodded.

In fact, he doesn't have many requirements for food. As long as Takehara Maki chooses it, he will like it.

Seeing that he agreed, Maki Takehara put the bento into the shopping cart with a smile.

The two of them selected in the convenience store for a long time, and the food in the shopping cart gradually increased. Maki Takehara did not just buy food for tonight. Maki Takehara also bought a lot of food for the next half week.

Takehara Maki looked at the food in the shopping cart and felt an inexplicable satisfaction in her heart.

She liked the feeling of choosing food with Aragaki Yasushi, which made her feel a faint sense of happiness, just like the feeling of going to the supermarket with her parents and sisters in her hometown in Hokkaido.

This is a warm feeling that belongs to family.

Finally, the two pushed the full shopping cart to the checkout counter.

Takehara Maki took out her wallet and started to check out.

The female clerk, whom Takehara Maki called Yoko-san, had a flash of surprise in her eyes when she saw that it was Takehara Maki who paid.

Also working part-time at a convenience store, Yoko knew Takehara Maki's conditions.

Takehara Maki, who was studying alone in Tokyo far away from his hometown in Hokkaido, could not be said to be penniless, but at least he was living in embarrassment.

In normal times, the convenience store manager and several of their colleagues would occasionally help Takehara Maki, a diligent, studious, and lovable girl.

But I didn't expect that it would be Takehara Maki who would pay today.

However, Yoko didn't say anything.

Maybe there were some inside stories that she didn't know about.

She just teased Takehara Maki a few words, causing her pretty face to turn red and she ran away.

After paying the bill, the two left the convenience store with their shopping bags and walked home. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the two of them, coating their figures with a layer of golden light.

……

Return to the apartment.

After Maki Takehara packed up many daily necessities, she was ready to start cooking.

Aragaki Yasushi said, seemingly unintentionally: "Takehara-san, why don't you go to my place to cook."

Aragaki Yasushi's tone didn't have many fluctuations, as if he really thought so in his heart.

However, only Aragaki Yasushi himself knows whether he has other ideas.

"This……"

"Not so good."

Takehara Maki hesitated.

She didn't have any other thoughts, she just thought it was a normal invitation.

After all, based on Aragaki Yasu's previous actions, he doesn't seem like the kind of person who would trick people into his home and then do whatever he wants.

"Would you bother your uncle and aunt a little?"

Maki Takehara was worried about arousing the resentment of Aragaki Yasu's parents.

"them……"

"I lived on my own a long time ago."

"what……"

Looking at Aragaki Yasu's handsome face, Takehara Maki realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing.

She was at a loss.

Aragaki Jing's expression changed, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Let's go."

Then regardless of Takehara Maki's reaction, he picked up the prepared ingredients with one hand and grabbed her wrist with the other.

Takehara Maki, who was already a little self-blame, was pulled by Yasushi Aragaki. He didn't react and subconsciously followed his footsteps.

When he came to his senses, he was already in the elevator.

Aragaki took out the access card and swiped it in the elevator, and the button on the top floor lit up.

As the elevator moved upward, Takehara Maki's inner feelings gradually became complicated.

Fear, worry, expectation, yearning...

There was even a hint of secret joy.
