December 22, 2013
I peeked into my burger and let out a smug smile. It's a deluxe cheeseburger, must be my imouto's version of an apology. Well, if Shinjiro haven't been such a spoil sport, I could've stuck with the regular cheeseburger.
We stopped for gas at a local joint, as my twin was trying to swoon the cashier lady to discount our food while Shinjiro was fussing over my sister, who pouted at him for treating her like a kid. I was sitting in front of them, biting into my burger and reading a magazine I took from the counter. We were on our way to go to the Island, so you could call it day one of our trip. We packed lots of food, courtesy of senpai, warm clothes, and our gifts for the group. The ones wrapped prettily were from Minako's, the bulgy ones came from Makoto, and the leftovers were from Shinjiro. Of course, I took the liberty of settling some gifts to share as well. Only to my family by the way. I was wearing a black trench coat over my blue vest and shirt. I had on some black pants and boots while a scarf hung on my neck. My brother was wearing the same thing, although he had on leather gloves and a cool hat. Minako wore a simple white sweater with her thick orange and red skirt along with leggings and her favorite pair of boots. Her scarf was red with crisscross white lines and she wore pink earmuffs that hid her signature XXII hairpins.
Shinjiro went to college the same year as me and Minako. Since my imouto told him to attend it with her, he took the Culinary course at Hattori Nutrition College with her while I studied at Kogakuin University where my twin went to. Makoto had got into the Department of Mechanical engineering and I graduated of honors at the Department of Computer Science. It was during that time where he finally asked Minako that important question during our graduation ceremony, and of course, he and Makoto had to fist fight for awhile until both of them swore not to do it again since Minako was pissed at them for fighting during an important ceremony.
Shinjiro grew taller than us twins, and he was about two times taller than Minako as well, making it difficult and yet at the same time pleasant to see that the brunette would stand on her tiptoes to kiss him on the cheek at sometimes. His shaggy brown hair became thicker, but short enough to make him look clean and less, er, what's the term for this, hooligan-like? He already discarded his maroon trench coat and looked mature in a coffee brown turtle neck and black jeans, although the damn beanie is still there. All in all, he looked great.
Damn, when was I a fashion designer again? Gay much...
I paused at a page about the Kirijo Group, where a familiar young woman with regal red hair and elegant poise stood in front of a crowd of businessmen. It was then I noticed Makoto breathing down my neck. "Ah, Mitsuru looked as beautiful as always." He had this dreamy look on his face when I quickly smacked his back to snap him out of it. My brother has this little crush on our senpai, you know. And it makes him look like a love struck idiot when he does that.
"Why didn't you ask Mitsu-nii out, Koto-nii?" Heh, here comes Minako's infinite bout of curiosity. Shinjiro was staring into my cheeseburger as I protectively shield it away from him. "Eh, she's the head of the badass Kirijo Group. She won't look twice at me, Minako." He sadly smiled at her as I went back to my reading, when suddenly-!
"AHA!" I jumped at the sound as I felt my burger disappear from my grip. Damn, Shinjiro-senpai! That was a deluxe, and I mean ultra DELUXE cheeseburger!
"Oy give it back!" I scowled at him as I chased him around the convenience store. Shinjiro grinned and took a large bite of it. "Gah, your spit is on here; gross!"
"Shut up give it back!"
"Nuh uh!"
Minako turned to my twin and sighed to herself, "Why did I even buy him that burger..?" I could see Makoto shrug as he sat down and fantasized Mitsuru-senpai's face again. I tried once again to grab MY burger out of the other's hand when he pushed it up high from my reach.
"Maybe because Shinjiro called for shotgun earlier…"
"Oh. I see."
