Chapter 44: Meeting Again (1/2)

“Clara, so you were here, we were looking for you everywhere.” Shizuko didn’t recognize Masashi immediately.

Clara a little embarrassingly looked at Masashi.

“That is…., ah, it’s you! Why are you here?” Seeing Masashi, Shizuko was very surprised.

The other two boys also recognized Masashi, showing a startled and angry expression.

“Can you introduce me to him?” At this time, on the side, an adult voice resounded.

Clara gratefully looked at the man, “I’ll introduce you, this is my junior high school classmate, Gennai Masashi, next to him is his sister, Gennai Kazumi. Gennai-san, this is our classes new chemistry teacher, Maruo Chojiro. You’re already familiar with the others.”

“Hello. I’m Maruo Chojiro. Nice to meet you.” The young teacher smiled and offered his hand.

“Hello.” Masashi shook his hand.

Masashi suddenly had a strange feeling, as if he saw this person before. He pondered about it a little bit, but he still had no memory of it.

“Clara, have you been together with him?” The boy who had been tricked by Masashi approached Clara and asked.

“Murata, my affair isn’t any of your concern.”

“I’m your boyfriend.”

“I’ve never acknowledged that.”

“You……because of him?” The boy pointed at Masashi.

“I said, that my affair isn’t any of your concern. Gennai-san, let’s get out of here.”

Masashi had no choice but to follow her.

“Brother, you’re being considered, as a love rival,” Kazumi came over and whispered.

Seeing her gloating expression, Masashi stared at her.

He hasn’t done anything, but still ended up stirring such a situation.

Approaching Rumi’s classroom, they saw a sign hung on the entrance with a coffee cup design. There were also beads that were hung at both sides of the door with different colors. On the window, there were ribbons and balloons tied together. From the outside, it looks very colorful.

“Pretty nice, it looks just like a café. Whoever thought of the design definitely has good taste.” Masashi told Kazumi.

“Be careful not to let Rumi hear you, she’s working very hard on setting the table.” Kazumi gave him a look.

“You really are a good guardian, if you join the competition for top parents you’ll definitely get into the top 10.”

“You speak too much, quickly go in.”

Clara chuckled seeing the two siblings bickering with each other.

Going inside, they saw a room filled with borrowed coffee tables and chairs. The female workers wore the same dress as Rumi wore while the males wore uniforms while walking around greeting the guests.

“Senior, Kazumi, you finally came, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” The three went inside and was immediately greeted by Rumi.

“Gennai-san, this is….” Clara was amazed at the girl’s splendid appearance.

“Just like I mentioned this is my schoolmate, Nagakawa Rumi. Rumi, this is my junior high school classmate, YoFan Clara, who studies at Pang Mu private high school, which I just happened to come across.”

“Miss YoFan, hello.” In front of outsiders, Rumi would always be humble and polite.

“Hello, Nagakawa-san” Clara nodded to her, expression was a little strange.

After the three had sat down, Rumi placed a tray with three cups of coffee and some snacks.

“Three guests. Please enjoy.” Rumi held the tray looking at Masashi with a beautiful smile.

Masashi, and Kazumi first leaned and sniffed the coffee by reflex, then looked at the person sitting on the opposite side, Clara, who was silent.

“Is there something on my face?” Clara felt a bit uncomfortable as the two looked at her with beaming eyes, then unconsciously wiped her face.

“Nothing, quickly drink, or it will turn cold and taste bad.” Masashi smilingly said.

“Okay.” Clara placed her lips on the cup and immediately drank.

“Does it taste normal?” After seeing her drink, Masashi suddenly asked.
