47 3.4- Talk about Food, The Railway and The Dorm. (1/2)
Akira slowly stood up from the seat of the swing and slowly turned and face me. She saw my white knuckles as I held the metal chains of the swing with the flow of tears that seemed to streamed non-stop from my eyes.
She looked at me dumbfounded as she thought that she may have offended in whatever demeanour in her speech or mannerism. Suddenly she enclasped her hands behind my back and sunk her head in my chest.
I took one hand off the chain of the swing and patted her head while I gently removed her from the embarrassing situation. I knew she was an introvert and would not openly show her feelings or actions with the opposite sex easily.
Also, I refrained from mentioning another girl's name in her presence as whatever reason that I may give would all turn into a HUGE misunderstanding. I looked down into her face and mouthed the words that the situation at hand is alright. So it's best I shut up and divert her attention.

I held up my forefinger to her lips to stop her from speaking further and from spouting too many irritating questions all at the same time. Girls; when they worry about you, they worry too much and when they love you, they stick to you like the shirt behind your back. (just a figure of speech)
”Let's go grab something to eat, I will try to explain to you later along the way or in between meals. I'm hungry... So you should be feeling hungry too, right...? Any places that have nice meals that you want to recommend...?”
Akira discovered that she had let one of her hidden away emotions took control of the situation and sheepishly turned her away as she peeled herself from the embrace. She had not done anything like this before and why should she be doing this at all; she thought to herself.
However, to her, even though it was a fleeting moment of an embrace... it was like an addiction that she cannot forget; the warmth and the body she held as she immensely melted in his chest.
She blushed again as she hoped that the embarrassing moment that had just occurred was not witnessed by someone she knew. In the worst scenario that particular someone might even report directly to her parents!
She mustered up her strength and told Shiro that they should Gyoza No Osho, a fusion of Chinese-Japanese budget-friendly cuisine restaurant which was situated across the Memorial to Ozone Station built by the Japan National Railway to commemorate their employees that died at their post.
However, since today is the last Tuesday that they will be operating, the following Tuesdays would be closed for business and their operating would be 11 am to 11 pm.
