POV: Teruhashi Kokomi

It's nice that he's inviting me to places lately, but its weird that he invited me to a random shopping mall in a random part of town.

T: So where are we going?

Kusuo starts dwelling in his thoughts for a while. It must be something important.

S: A television.

T:...a television?

S: A television.

T: Is your tv broken?

S: For a long time now. But I just got the allowance to buy a new one.

T: You can't fix it?

S: I can't be bothered.

T: Even you can be lazy sometimes.

S: If you can, do you want to fix a television?

T: Not really.

Female Worker: Oh look, a young couple. Its rare for them to enter a place like this.

Male Manager: Sure i-

W: What's wrong manager?

M: I recognize that kid...its one of the only two people who manage to get a low price from me.

W: is that so... :I

M: But he made a critical error.

W: What?

M: He brought his girlfriend. And I'm confident I can convince her to pull a pretty penny from him. Hehehehehe-

W: Uhm...good luck then, manager.

M: Are you two looking for a new tv?

T: Oh, ye-

Saiki stopped me from saying more and held my by the hand away from him.

T: Kusuo?

S: I remember him. He's a big pain.

M: Darn, I'm surprised the kid remembers me. But that just means his girl's his weakness. hehehehehhehehehe-

W: Manager, your laughing is scaring the other customers.

M: You two seem like a cute couple~

T: Oh, thank you.

He's trying to lure in Kokomi.

M: May I recommend this...50 inch flat screen!

T:...what? Uhm, that seems a bit excessive

M: Not only that,

T: Eh?

M: Its part of a bundle, that comes with a kotatsu, a surround sound system and a two person blanket!

...why are any of these in an electric hardware store?

T: A two person blanket? Is this-

M: That's right! It's the new honey moon bundle!

POV: Saiki Kusuo

he is really desperate.

I look to Kokomi, that showed no reaction.

S: Kokomi?

T: HONEY MOON?! DO WE LOOK THAT CLOSE...TO THE POINT WE'RE MARRIED!? A KOTATSU WITH KUSUO? SHARING A BLANKET WITH KUSU-

Her minds a mess right now. His plan kinda worked a bit too well. Since Kokomi's out of it, the annoying manager will leave me alone now.

POV: Teruhashi Kokomi


Kotatsu...Blanket...Sleepover...

T: Eh? Where's Kusuo?

I looked around to see Kusuo standing still, staring at something. I followed his gaze and saw a mini fridge.

T:
Do you want a mini fridge?

S: Not particularly.

I turned to the manager, and it seemed like a a light bulb popped up on his head.

M: Oh, you're interested in the mini fridge?

Kusuo looked at him and almost lost interest in the fridge.

M: But sir, this a particularly special type of mini fridge.

Kusuo wanting to walk away from him.

M: There's a custom compartment just for coffee jelly!

Kusuo stopped at his tracks.

T: Are you interested?

S:...its a tempting offer.

I giggled at his unnecessary inner conflict.

S: Theres still a lot of problems.

T: Which is?

S: I never heard of this kind of product before. And fridges are kind of a pain to maintain.

M: And since this a new product, you get a permanent warranty and a cleaning kit as an extra item.

S: Jackpot.

T: Eh?

Kusuo ended up buying the fridge. I now see Kusuo trying to put as much coffee jelly as possible in the mini fridge.

T:
What happened to the TV?

S: Plans change.

T: You want me to buy it for you?

Kusuo casually talks to me while eating coffee jelly

S: Not really. I'll just buy it next time I get my allowance.

T: What if I want to buy it for you?

S:
You don't need to.

T:
What if I give you half and you have to watch movies with me when I ask you to?

S:
So you get to benefit from it?

T: I get benefits from everything.

S: Good grief. That weird store manager gave you ideas.

T: You're not really against it
