"...Is that the only thing you buy?"
I was hiding behind the snack aisle for no reason, peeking in. Not even having a meal, just one drink?
"Wow, how do they live like that..."
Just then, Minami turned her head. Our eyes met.
"..."
"...uh."
I got caught.
H-hello.
"..."
Minami walked to the checkout counter without saying a word. I awkwardly followed her, holding a rice ball.
Please calculate the bill.
One triangle gimbap, please.
The employee was about to start the calculation.
Just a moment.
I took out my wallet.
Please calculate the bill together.
Minami looked at me.
I do not accept it.
Come on, just one drink.
"no, I do not want."
I want to buy it for you, kid~
"..."
A brief silence followed.
Minami sighed and said nothing more.
After finishing the payment, I picked up the green apple ade.
"...thank you."
He left the convenience store, leaving a quiet remark.
I chuckled for no reason.
At least he knows how to greet.
As soon as I got home, I flopped down on the bed.
I turned on my phone and opened the notepad.
July 7th
First day of school in Seoul.
I met someone named Minami.
Buying a drink
He is more polite than expected.
After thinking for a moment, I wrote the last line.
I wish I could eat some rice tomorrow.
After saving the notepad.
He looked up at the ceiling and muttered softly.
"...What a strange kid."
