Shinobuya Shou
As usual when school hours are over. I was sitting on the couch in the OSiS room. Of course I was accompanied by the yellow-haired girl who was reading a novel beside me.
She is Haruka Chika, my quiet cousin's sister. He rarely talked to me, but we were always together in the OSIS room after school.
"Anci ... Chika ... I went out first", I said goodbye because I was bored with the state of this silent OSIS room.
"Clearly", he replied indifferently and kept his eyes focused on the novel he was reading.
I went out and closed the door to the OSIS room. I go where my heart wants me to go. I don't know why I stopped in front of the literature club room.
A room full of memories before I became the chairman of OSIS. My heart kept pushing me to open the door and back in.
"Because no one is there ..", I also made up my mind to enter my old club room.
Greek ...
Eh?! Ruui's?
I was surprised when I saw the blue haired girl with her red-eye balls. He sat in the chair behind the large table in the middle of the room. He was Ruui, my former clubmate. His cold attitude that makes him a little away from by some people first. But because he's always ranked number one in this school.
Many became his friends. Including me, but I don't know if he thinks I'm a friend or what. Because ...
"Met afternoon Ruui!", I said with a smile as I waved my hand.
"Hmm", he just stared at me for a moment and looked back at the screen of the phone he was holding.
Oh my goodness .. always so ...
"Oi oi ... Why are you here?", I pulled the chair at the end of the room and placed it next to Ruui.
"It just takes calm" she replied without seeing me at all.
"Haa?.. alesan what is an tuh?!", I sat beside him and looked at his face.
"Did you see me?", asked her with her expressionless face.
"It just takes calm" I replied teasingly.
I used to always mock, insult and do so many things so that Ruui would show me her expression. But my efforts have never yielded results. But even now I still haven't given up.
"Ohh", he just nodded and looked back at his phone screen.
"Anci ... Ruui wants to come with me?", I'm looking for a way to talk to her.
"Where?", again he did not look at me when I spoke.
"Is ... OSIS business ..", I'm looking for an excuse for him to come with me now.
Although I actually just want to take her on the road. From the beginning he never accepted my invitation even though he only ate together in the cafeteria, he refused my invitation raw raw.
It was his attitude that attracted me to him. And maybe I've been in love with her for a long time. It's just that I'm too busy because I pretended to be the exemplary OSIS chairman in front of him.
The real reason I became the chairman of OSIS is, I just wanted to attract his attention. But it turns out I was wrong. Ruui remains Ruui, that cold attitude is what makes her special in my eyes.
"Yes, come ... where?", asked her with her flat face.
Weh?! she wants?!
"Ano ... bring your bags .. We'll be out of school" I explained.
I was thinking of taking her to one of the cafes I used to visit with her in the first grade of High School, when we were working on a novel for a race. Maybe there I can see his smile.
Even with a smile, I don't care. I really want to see Ruui with an expression on her face. After all this time I was able to walk out of the school gate with the ice queen at school.
Because of her cold attitude, she is often nicknamed the snow princess or ice queen by other students at school. Since we were quite famous, many of the students were astonished and fixated on staring at the two of us who were walking together out of the school gate.
There must be a lot of strange, insignificant gossip spread tomorrow. Yes, I don't care, the important thing is that I can be with Ruui again after such a long time. Soon we both finally arrived at the cafe that has memories even if only a little.
We sat down next to the window facing the highway. When ordering a drink arrived, I asked Ruui to choose a drink for both of us. I didn't think Ruui still remembered my favorite drink.
When I first came here with her, I ordered hot chocolate. And I remember very well he ordered a bitter black coffee. I don't know what to say anymore but Ruui is a unique girl in my opinion.
Ruui ordered those two drinks again now. Either coincidentally or indeed he still remembered back then. We just kept quiet without a word waiting for our order to come.After a while in silence I passed, the end of our order was already on the table.
With her cold face was she sipping her order's black coffee.
"Anci ... Ruui ... Why do you like bitter coffee?", I asked.
"Because I like it", that short answer with her flat face reminded me of her when we first came here.
"Indeed what is the taste of bitter coffee anyway?", I frowned in wonder while sipping a glass of this sweet hot chocolate.
"Shou .. Do you not like coffee?"
Whoaa... This is the first time he's mentioned my name. And the first time she asked me something about myself.
"Because the coffee is not good" I replied with a casual smile.
"Wanna try?"
Wait?!. .. He nawarin I drink in the glass he finished drinking?!
If I accept it, it's the same as if I had an indirect kiss with Ruui. I really don't like coffee from a small. That bitter taste made me want to vomit.
"Seriously?", I took a glass of his coffee.
"Hmm .. try", she nodded and looked at me with her flat face.
"I try ya ..", slowly I sipped this black coffee that must be bitter.
I'm prepared with all the possible flavors.
"Ukhuk ..", I guess I can't stand the bitter taste.
I put Ruui's coffee cup back on the table and covered my mouth that wanted to vomit.
"Based on the cute blonde guy", Ruui said with a thin smile as she turned to the window.
Did I not see wrong?!
I just saw Kaguya Ruui smile. The end of my dream came true. I could see a little smile on his face. Maybe I'll make her laugh in the future.
"Hoi ... What did you say? ... What's your word?!"
Today I made an unforgettable memory in my life. I managed to make a smile grow on his face. Next time, I'll make her laugh.
