Chapter 20

(A/N Notes: I wasn't able to properly write this week, but I still have some drafts for about 5 weeks or so)

Yuriko and Takeru were walking back home while holding one of each other's arms, as they walked they would have short talks, but most of the time they would walk in silence, and now during one of those silences Yuriko began yawning

"*Yawns*"

"? Are you feeling sleepy, Yuriko?"

"Yeah, usually I would have a cup of coffee at the stucco office before going home, but today because of certain reasons, no one in the room had time to make coffee"

"Is that so?... Then... Do you want me to make you some coffee?"

Takeru's cheeks were slightly red as he said that, but when Yuriko heard his offer of making something for her she responded almost immediately

"You will? Then I'll gladly accept"

"Okay *mumbling something*... Do you have coffee beans at your apartment?"

"Coffee beans? No, I don't... Don't tell me, you're going to make the coffee with the beams?"

"Yeah, that's how I learned to do it"

"Takeru... Do you like coffee by any chance?"

"I hate it"

"... Oh... I-I see..."

Yuriko was left slightly confused at Takeru's answer, but she only stayed confused for a little while, as Takeru began to pull her

"Then let's go buy some coffee beans"

"... Okay!"

Yuriko was about to say that it wasn't needed, but noticing that this meant spending more time with Takeru, she quickly changed her mind and agreed with a smile on her face. And so with Takeru in the lead, the two went to a store to buy some coffee beans

Some minutes later

The two had entered a pretty famous store for selling high-quality coffee and related products

"I'll go take a look over there, so you can go take a look to see if you find anything that interests you, Yuriko"

"Okay"

With that, they both went to different aisles. Yuriko went to the aisle that contained coffee makers and cups, and she looked at the variety the shop had, but Yuriko was looking at the various cups with great interest as she crouched down

"..." <These patterns are quite beautiful... I wonder if Takeru wouldn't mind if we shared cups with matching patterns>

Then after waving away that thought of hers, she got up and turned, making her almost bump into someone

" "Ah!" "

"I'm sorry about that!"

"It's alright, we didn't bump nor break any of the products"

"Yes, you're right"

The person she almost bumped into was a boy just slightly shorter than her by 3 cm, with brown hair and eyes, and with a smile on his face as he held two cups with matching flower patterns, which she noticed

"Buying those for you and someone else?"

"Yes, one for me and one for my cute fi... Girlfriend"

"I hope she likes it"

"Thanks"

Having finished their short talk, Yuriko went on walking down the aisle as she looked at the other products
