Chapter 2?
When Ayumu reach home, he was extremely tired. After he turns on the light, he threw his school bag on the sofa and sleep on the floor. He thought, this is all that stupid girl's fault! If she didn't play 'steal the obentou' game with me, I wouldn't be so tired. Wait, I have to cook S.S.F.C (Special Spicy Fried Chicken) for her! Great, can't sleep yet. Ayumu thought.
Ayumu put on his favourite apron and look for the ingredients in the refrigerator. WHAT! Nothing at all! Where's the chicken that I just bought today? Ayumu thought. It wouldn't just came alive and walk away, right? It must be onesan. But, what can I cook now? She will come at seven! Let me see what's left. Ayumu start to find something to cook. Then, he saw a few packs of instant curry on the table.
"Great." He said. "I have only this left. Oh well, I have no choice." Ayumu quickly take the few packs of instant curry and start to cook it.
Just then, Ayumu heard a key-opening-door sound coming from the front door. It was Madoka Narumi, Kiyotaka's wife, which means is Ayumu's sister-in-law. Madoka is Ayumu's first love, but now, somebody had took over Madoka's place (Sorry, Madoka-lovers)
"I'm home." Madoka said. "What's cooking?"
"Onesan, did you see the chicken that I bought today?"
"What chicken?" Madoka said, wearing her best I'm-innocent-didn't-do-it-don't-know-what's-happen expression.
"Don't tell me you sell it to our neighbors………Again."
"Well………I'm kinda broke this month, so….."
"So, you just sell it to our neighbors without asking me! Fine! You can help me to do something." Said Ayumu. "When that stupid girl comes tonight, you can help me to ask her what birthday gift she really wants." said Ayumu.
"Oh, I see. You plan to give a special gift to her on her birthday and tell her how you really feel about her, right?"
"Maybe. Just ask her, please………."
"Well, ok, prepare the food now, I'm hungry!" Madoka said, not patient at all.
"Actually, there's no S.S.F.C tonight. Because you sell our chicken to our neighbors! So, I'm cooking instant curry today."
"What! Instant curry, again? This is my 9th time eating instant curry this week. I'm gonna be sick!"
"You have no choice."
"Fine!"said Madoka, not happy at all.
Just then, Ayumu heard the doorbell ring, it must be her. Ayumu quickly walk to the front door and open it. There she was, dress in a beautiful dress, saying: "HI, Narumi-san!"
"Welcome…….." Ayumu said.
"I can't wait to try your S.S.F.C…." Hiyono walked into the house and sit on the dining table, waiting to eat.
"Actually….." Ayumu said, trying not to disappoint her.
"Just bring it on, I'm ready to eat..." said Hiyono, can't wait any longer.
"OK………." Ayumu went to the kitchen to bring out the instant curry.
"OH, I just can't wait to try your extremely delicious, yummy, crunchy………." Ayumu put a plate of instant curry rice on the table.
"Instant Curry?" Hiyono stared at Ayumu, waiting for an explanation.
"You see…….. My onesan was kinda broke this month so…….." There was a pause.
"SO?"
"Cool down, chill. After you heard this, please don't do anything stupid, ok? Just calm down…...Ok? OK……… onesan sell the chicken I bought today to our neighbors, so………"
"So, there is no S.S.F.C tonight, right?" Hiyono ask slowly.
"Right."
"HIYONO PUNCH!" shouted Hiyono as one panda-covered-puppet punch towards the brown-haired teen.
Ayumu was hit in the face. He did not evade it. It seems that he's really sorry.
"Why didn't you evade it? You always will." Asked Hiyono.
"Well, this time it's really my fault, Sorry."
"Whoa, did you, the cold-blooded-devil-like Ayumu just say sorry?" Hiyono asked, surprise.
"Hey, don't call me that! Ok, I promise I will make S.S.F.C for you on your birthday, ok?"
"Fine. Let's just eat." Hiyono sit down quietly and eat the instant curry rice. Ayumu and Madoka join her.
After eating, Ayumu decided is time to continue the plan.
"Err………. I drank all the 100-plus yesterday, so, I'm going out to buy it."
Ayumu whispered to Madoka. "Ask her." Madoka nodded.
Ayumu grabbed his coat and went out the door, leaving Madoka to finish the plan. It's up to you, onesan. Thought Ayumu.
Madoka asked the girl. "So, your birthday is this week, right?"
"Ya, I just love birthday party!" said Hiyono.
"I am going to buy you a new animal puppet, so you can punch Ayumu more often."
"Cool! Thanks!" (Author: Poor Ayumu….)
"What birthday gift you really want?" Madoka asked straight-forwardly.
"Well…… I wish…………."
(I'm not telling you yet, you will find out in the end)
Just then, Ayumu came back.
"Narumi-san, it's very late. So I have to go. Bye."
"I'll walk you home." Said Ayumu. Hiyono nodded and went out the door.
When Ayumu was just going to close the door, Madoka gives him a thumbs-up, which means the plan had finish.
Ayumu smiled and closed the door.
-
When Ayumu came home, he took off his coat and quickly asks Madoka. "So, what birthday gift she wants?"
"This birthday gift is very hard to get."
"Just tell me."
"OK……"
Madoka told Ayumu everything. Just then, the phone rang. Ayumu immediately picked it up. "Hello…….."
"It's me." Hiyono said into the phone. "Just want to remind you that tomorrow is Saturday, which means is my birthday! Remember to prepare all the delicious and yummy food, especially S.S.F.C, you owe me. Be there earlier, ok?"
" Ya, ya, ya. I will."
"So, what are you going to wear tomorrow?"
"Still haven't decide." Said Ayumu.
"Why don't you wear that T-shirt with a Bugs Bunny and a Daffy Duck picture on it?"
"NO WAY…….. Wait a minute, how you know I have that shirt?" asked Ayumu.
"I'm the newspaper club president. Of course, I have my ways."
"I don't care. I won't wear that shirt even if it's the last shirt in the earth!"
"Fine…… Just wear something nice, ok? I have to go to bed. So, see you tomorrow, bye." Hiyono said.
"Ok, bye."
It was very late. Ayumu went into his room. Tomorrow is her birthday. I have to get her that birthday gift no matter what. Ayumu thought. Tomorrow's gonna be a busy day………
