CHAPTER TWENTY THREE

Shinichiro and I already left the café

Shinichiro and I already left the café. We are back to walking outside and now he made sure to hold me tightly and properly. I kept pointing at cute stores or shops to go to but he kept rejecting it all, saying that there are too many girls inside.

The way he never looked my way when he talked to me, eventually proved my hunch that he might be mad. I let out a small sigh and then catch up with his big steps. I then pulled at his hand that I am holding, trying to make him look at me.

"Uhm Shinichiro?" I called for him. He let out a hum in reply, but didn't turn my way. "I'm sorry, are you ma-"

"I'm not mad." He breathed out. I pressed my lips together, slowly nodding my head.

He said he isn't mad but why does he look like he is mad? It's probably because of miss maid, or maybe because of me. Ugh, I shouldn't have been too nice to her. If only I knew this is what will make him feel.

"Hey."

Shinichiro stopped walking, making me stop as well. The pad of his finger made contact with my chin, pushing it up lightly and making me look up at him. When our eyes met, he let out a small sigh.

"I'm not mad, so please take that sad look off of your pretty face." He said and then a small smile slowly started forming on his lips. "Today is supposed to make you happy, so smile OK?"

His genuine smile was enough assurance that he isn't mad at me. He is right as well, today should be a happy day. I let out a small breath and then smiled. I nod my head and murmured a small OK, agreeing to him.

"Just don't smile too much." He suddenly said after seeing me smile. His eyebrows furrowed and then he look around us. "You might attract some flirty stupid maid again." I couldn't help but laugh at what he said.

The two of us continued going around. The place is just very lively and bright. We went to an arcade and had fun even though I always end up winning at the games we play. Whenever I win he'll say he's going easy on me but I feel like he's not though. I guess I am just more lucky than him today.

After spending some time in the arcade, I was finally able to force Shinichiro to go inside one of the cute pink shops here. The store was filled with pink themed merchandise of different popular shows, brands, manga, and people. Everything in here is very eye pleasing.

"Oh! Look!"

I couldn't help but feel the excitement coursing through my body when I saw a certain pink themed plushy. I pulled at Shinichiro's hand, pulling him with me closer to it. I pick the plushy up, and then turned around to show it to him.
