Chapter 174 - In New York (1/2)
Ryouta POV
I went to start prepping and bumped into a girl
Ryouta: Im sorry for that...Ojou-sama
Wow shes cute I can set her up as one of my woman in the future a girl that isn't ripe yet' I bend down and put my hand out
she pushes my hand away and says watch where you're going and what are you doing in my grandfather's home” She says then she flips her hair a little but I see shes blushing.
Ryouta: Oh chef is entertaining him while I prep maybe I can cook you something. ”
Girl: no judging from your looks I bet everything you cook will need to go in the trash... but if you want to
That pissed me off and I say: What right do you say that my food goes in the trash when you haven't tried it. besides, you should never waste food
girl: well, my father says that food should go in the trash if it isn't good. I do have the Gods tongue (althrough grandpa says something about him his involvement with me though but I'm not sure)
I was surprised that she has the gods tongue that Saiba talked about but still pissed off at her and huh
Ryouta: Your father is wrong
girl: No your wrong
”Horrible”
”your disgusting”
”you're ugly ”
”you can't call a girl ugly”
”I meant your personality but if you're talking about looks no comment”
”Why I never ”
I am so pissed off I was about to walk away and ask her in a condescending voice and ask her
Ryouta: for a chef what is the most important sense
girl: Obvious the taste
I then shake my head and tell her the same thing that Saiba said about senses to me but modified into my own version and finish with
Ryouta: But more important is imagined sight. What you expect to see should be a part of the cooking process. if you don't understand that you have a long way to go!
She was in a daze for a while but I ignore her and prepped and started my dessert (I was the one who made it) also tea...I'm actually better at making tea and coffee than the old man
As I cooked I felt her gaze on me. as she just stares. I realize I lost my cool...
I then asked the old man umm I think his name was Senzaemon Nakiri if I can play the piano while he ate to which he seemed surprised but nodded
As the food was beginning to be served Ryouta went to the piano that was brought by Grayfia
Ryouta: Ok Mr. Nakari I'll play the piano now and sing a song on my of a certain lady...
I begin to play the piano:
Ryouta: The sadness born today,
It soars up high above the grey clouds and hides away.
The sky opens its eyes,
And calls upon a wind on which my heart can learn to fly.
I'll keep you safe so don't you worry,
I want to share my destiny with you.
Every tear that you cry,
When your heart begins to sigh,
I will hold you in my arms when you feel blue.
It's a tender rain,
May this song reach where you are.
And however far,
I know I'll see you again.
So trust in me,
If you believe,
Then these words will heal your soul.
So let the love you feel make your heart whole.
Singing in the rain,
Every drop shines in the sun,
Each and every one,
They will wash away the pain.
And for this time,
The sky will shine,
And the world will bloom again.
Although apart,
Love in our heart remains.
Please come, the tender rain.

Erina Nakari POV
Who does he think he is lecturing me. He makes me so irritated I hate him. the only thing he has to go with him is he's cute... no he's not cute his words messed with my head that's all.
Huh, what's that smell and what that noise. Tears fall down her eyes and she follows the sound and smells and sees her grandfather and another man serving him food and on the side, she sees that boy again playing the piano... that beautiful song came from him...
Erina: Grandfather? and who is that man(what a wonderful smell)*I smiled ( I cant remember the last time I smiled ) The boy stops playing then my stomach growls embarrassingly... but the boy doesn't laugh. everyone looks at me
Grandfather: Erina
I look away shyly
Man: Come now, Senzamon-dono, this isn't what we agreed onto. I only came because you said you'd make sure no one else was around.”
The man said with his arm on grandfather
Grandfather: ugh
I lowered my head and said ”My taste-testing appointment was canceled by the client
Grandfather: I see. Erina this is an old friend of mine. This is a private meal. I'm sorry but-
I bow and say ”I'm sorry.” I turn around and said”I'll go now” but my stomach again embarrassing.
