Again!?

After we all have done having lunch at the Container City, a restaurant made of containers, we go outside and talk for a few minutes. "So... Kai-kun, why were you not visiting us the past week or two? Rina has been so eager to meet you again and I also want to show my gratitude for taking care of my younger sister, Rina, by making you something delightful! Maybe you and Erika-chan can come around this week? Please?" Ayaka-san asks.

Okay, maybe I intentionally avoided them for the past week or two but I also have valid reasons for that! So, I tell them that I've been busy with something that required me to focus but now that I'm free, Erika and I can visit them. Not this week though as I need to go to the convention with Rena for a few days.

Upon hearing that, they look saddened especially Rina whose head is bowed down. Feeling guilty when I'm looking at them, I made a promise. "Alright, alright. I promise as soon as I go back from the event, I'll come to visit you guys alongside Erika, okay? Promise?" I make a pinky swear gesture to show them that I'm serious. Rebecca who standing beside me is giggles when she sees me like this. You don't know how to deal with kids, so shut up!

They stretch out their little fingers and lock with my little finger, signifying that a promise has been made. I'm a bit shocked that Ayaka did the same as I thought Rina is the only one I need to promise. Rebecca is still giggling. *Sigh* Can't you stop, already?

Then, we head our way, they go back to their home while I and Rebecca are gonna go to one cafe that has been my favorite for the past year. The place where I always hang out with my friends. The place where Hanako-san first met me. But, do you know what's funny about the cafe? I don't even know its name! Wow, I'm such a terrible customer.

We've arrived and are already at our table, ordering a slice of cheesecake and a cup of hot latte for me while a slice of chocolate cake and a cup of cold americano for her. At first, I want to pay for the food but she prevents me from doing it and pays using her credit card instead. Her hand is fast as f*ck! Where do you learn that huh?

After the food has arrived, we try a piece of the cake and it's something entirely different than I usually taste. She has the same reaction, too. While we're happily enjoying our time, someone suddenly comes and greets us. When I look up, my eyes widen with shock because Hanako-san is here! Oh God, I hope she doesn't do anything dangerous this time.

"Hi, Kai-san~! It's been a long time since last we met. How are you and are you doing okay? Oh, who's that woman who sits in front of you? Is she your girlfriend? When did you meet her? When- bla, bla, bla..." *Sigh* She's doing it again. She starts giving me that look when she notices Rebecca. Is this what people call yandere?

"Okay, Hanako-san, you-"

"You can just call me Hanako, Kai-san~." The way she talks always scares me in a weird way.

"...Ooookay, Hana... ko, I'm doing great and my condition is as healthy as a horse. This woman right here is my friend who is also like me, well, not a streamer but someone who is famous in her own field. We're here because she wants me to become a guide for her as she's not from here as you can see from her looks. So, she's here to hunt food to taste what are the most delightful food she can get. And, no, she's not my girlfriend." Whew, that's quite a long explanation. I hope she catches what I'm saying.

"Ooh, sorry, sorry~! I thought you two are a thing because it's always hard to see a man and a woman sit by themselves in the cafe like this. Haha, isn't that suspicious? No? Guess I'm the only one then." She starts making an awkward joke that isn't even funny. It's true that she's my number one fan, literally, but isn't this kinda step over the line? I thought that after our talk at the park gonna make her changes but I guess I'm wrong. Or, am I?

Suddenly, two women come out of nowhere and grab her away. She doesn't even try to resist as they drag her away. After she's out of my view, one of the women that drag her away comes at me and apologizes.

"We are sorry for troubling you two. We know that she's going to do that as soon as she sees you but we are unable to prevent her. We are truly sorry! Oh, and we are also your subscribers, so can we get an autograph and a selfie, please?" She hands me an already open notebook for me to sign an autograph and also takes her phone out of her pocket. Then, her friend comes too after dragging Hanako out of the cafe. I don't expect this at all!

So, as a part of my job as a streamer, I just follow her requests. I sign my autograph on her notebook and then took a selfie together. I'm the one who takes it as I'm the only tall person here. After that, they thank me and go away while giggling. *Sigh* This is what you have to deal with when you're famous.

I sit again and take a sip of my drink. While I'm doing that, she looks at me with a smirk engraved on her face. "What? What're you looking at?" I turn my head elsewhere to avoid contact with her.

"You're quite famous with girls, huh? It must be heaven for you to have a fanbase like them, full of beautiful and attractive girls and women, all of them want you, hmm~?" She's mocking me, I know but it's not my fault that most of my fans are female!

I'm just gonna ignore her and continue the hunt. Since it's almost sunset, we've decided to go to the grocery store to buy a few things for dinner tonight. She's gonna stay for another night as she doesn't look for a place to stay yet and she's also the one who gonna cook dinner for us. I have nothing against it, so I agree.

While we're looking for the right ingredients, we bump into someone and that person is Tomoe! Oh, come on! Why did I always bump into people that I know, huh!? Do you want to show me something, God!?

Narrator: You're indeed right, Kai.
