298 Mike’s Birthday 2 (1/2)

”It's an amazing movie!” Misae exclaimed excitedly after they exited from the cinema. As a girl who loved romantic stories, she loved them very much.

Mike smiled warmly. Truthfully, for half of the movie time, he spent them by watching Misae's expression. She changed expression rapidly, and it was extremely cute in his opinion. If she asked him about the content of the film… Well, he would just change the direction of their conversation.

”I'm glad that you like it.”

Misae grinned. ”But this is your birthday, so let's do something that you like too.”

For things that Mike liked, he could only list training at the very top. Unfortunately, it was not something he could possibly do with someone like Misae. Considering the girl's physical abilities, it was close to impossible for her to do a lot of practice.

His eyes landed on the café near the cinema. ”Are you hungry?”

”I do. What about you?”

”Me too,” Mike pointed to the café. ”Shall we eat there?”

”Okay!”

The two of them walked inside and the waiter greeted them. They picked a seat near the window as the waiter handed the list of foods and drinks. As this was quite a decent café, the price was quite high. The foods looked rather decent and delicious, though.

”I'll have a pancake,” Misae decided when she looked at the blueberry coated picture at the front. It looked rather delicious. Since this was still quite early, she didn't want to eat too much.

Mike ordered the same as he didn't know what to order. Aside from the pancakes, they also ordered iced tea.

”Do you like a pancake that much?” Mike saw her eyes were sparkling as she gazed at the picture.

Misae grinned. ”They're one of my favorites. But my mother didn't allow me to eat them too much because they'll make me fat.”

”You're not fat.”

”I'm still a bit too heavy, though. I'm thinking about doing some exercise when it's the vacation,” Misae frowned.

Mike wanted to say that he truly didn't think of her as someone fat. However, he recalled the first lesson he got about women. Never argued about their weight! It would be a pointless and long argument without any end.

He shook his head slightly. Why are the women liked to care about their weight so much? He never cared about them too much. After all, he barely remembered his own weight. Was it 100 kg or 120 kg? He didn't remember anymore.

When the pancakes arrived, Misae nearly squealed in delight as she took her fork and ate the pancake with delish. It was apparent from her face that she enjoyed the food very much. Seeing her eating with such happiness, Mike's mood increased as he ate. He didn't even realize when he finished the pancake as his attention was fully focused on the girl before him.

”It tastes good,” Misae smiled happily when she finished hers. ”You're already finished?”

”I eat slightly faster,” Mike answered.

”Oh yeah, how much is the pancake?”

”You don't have to pay, I'll be the one who pay.”

”This is your birthday! I can't let you be the one to pay.”

”This is our first date, so I'll be the one to pay.”

Hearing the word 'date', Misae's cheek turned crimson red in embarrassment as she recalled that today was, indeed, their first date. However, she couldn't possibly let him be the one to pay for their meal, right?

”I insist!” Misae pouted.

Internally, Mike cursed his self. Facing the cute expression she made, he felt that he couldn't possibly refuse. It was his own fault to fall for her, so he couldn't possibly blame her.

”Let's just split it by the two of us,” Mike said reluctantly.
