2. The Mocking
Recap
It was the girl that he had been looking for a month.
"Eh? Kyouya..."
End Of Recap
"Akiko..."
I heard my name being called by Kyouya.
I bit my lip.
Currently, I, Namikawa Akiko, no longer an heiress to the Namikawa Group, has just seen Ootori Kyouya after a month.
"Akiko-chan, I'll just be inside. You can just close the store by 6."
I nodded as I heard Okami-san, who went in the other room,
"Kyouya..."
I called as my vision got blurry,
Wait. I'm still in work.
"Irashaimaese. What can I do for you? Hmm. Let me guess, props for Hosting? Anou, eto, we have different instruments here and they're the best in town. Take it from my advise, after all, I play the violin and piano."
I told him as I placed the violin back to its case.
Suddenly, I felt something wrapped around my waist, which were Kyouya's arms,
"Kyouya!"
"You have no idea what I wanted to do after not seeing you for a month."
I felt his breath on my ears as I felt my cheeks go hot,
Seriously. He can really make me blush at this moment???
"Kyouya. Stop it. I'm still on my part-time job. Please. I'm not yet available."
I told him as I was trying to get out of his grip, which suddenly disappeared as he straightened his posture and pushed his glasses,
"So, what are you going to purchase then? As far as I know, the 3rd Music Room already has the piano for Tamaki."
I asked him as I went to get the list of instruments we have here, provided with the price,
"So, what are you going to purchase now, Kyouya?"
I asked him as he smirked,
"A ukelele for Hunny-senpai, A flute for Mori-senpai, A triangle for Haruhi. What do you think would suit the twins?"
He asked as I raised an eyebrow,
"Are you testing me, Kyouya?"
"Perhaps, perhaps not."
The twins. What would suit them?
Hmmm...
Aha!
"The cymbals. One cannot be played without the other."
He smirked at my answer and I tilted my head to a side,
"Interesting answer, Akiko. So, the cymbals, it is."
"Are you going to check out the instruments? I can get it if you want."
"No need. But it would do me a favor if I already have them."
I nodded and went inside the room and took out the ukelele and flute outside first, then went inside again and took the triangle and cymbals and went outside the room,
"So, there it is."
I saw him checking out the first two instruments,
"So, how are they?"
"They're the same as what you said."
"Rich people often buy their instruments here. Also us, back then."
I informed him as he nodded,
"I know, which is why I went here in the first place."
I sighed at his response and calculated the prices,
"The ukelele would be Y25,000, Y30,000 for the flute, Y14, 000 for the triangle and then, Y17,000 for the cymbals. So, Y86,000 all in all."
I told him as I calculated it on a calculator, so that I won't have any mistakes,
"Maa, ikka."
He said as he took out a checkbook and gave out a check with Y86,000 written on it,
"Sou ka. I hope this is dated today or perhaps, tomorrow, Kyouya."
I told him as he nodded at this,
"It is. You don't have to worry."
He said with a smirk as I rolled my eyes and placed the check inside the drawer,
"I heard that you're going out by 6."
He said as I turned to him,
"And so?"
"You know, it's not allowed for students to be having part-time jobs. You might want me to report you."
I sighed and asked him,
"And?"
"It's already 5:45. I'll be waiting for you."
I rolled my eyes and went inside the room, where Okami-san was.
Normal POV
Akiko was out by 6 while Kyouya was waiting for her,
"Waiting for me? That is so unlike you, Kyouya. Doing things without profits."
Akiko told him as the two started walking,
"So, it is."
He replied as he stopped halway while Akiko continued walking then soon paused as she realized that he stopped,
"You look good in a sailor fuku,"
He commented as Akiko widened her eyes,
"It's the first compliment I ever from you ever since I became a commoner."
She mocked at Kyouya, who replied,
"Oh?"
Akiko laughed at this and replied,
"Hai."
"You've changed, Akiko. You're much carefree now."
"Oh? Let me tell you this, Kyouya. Who would not change when yesterday you were an Ojou-sama, nonetheless, the heiress to the Namikawa Group and the next day, you became a Namikawa Akiko, moreover, a commoner."
Akiko replied as Kyouya nodded,
"I suppose."
"Kyouya, let's grab a bite or something. Wait. I forgot you're not used to fast-food restaurants,"
Akiko realized as she bit her lip,
"Why don't we then."
"Eh?"
He raised an eyebrow at this,
"Don't blame me if you get a problem with your stomach just because you ate in a fast-food chain,"
Akiko teased Kyouya,
"I already ate in a fast-food restaurant once."
"Eh? Seriously?"
"Hai."
"Sugoyi..."
She mocked at him as he rolled his eyes as they went in a restaurant,
