"Alex, you gonna have the large portion, right?" Airi asked the guy beside him, while flipping through the menu in her hands. But there wasn't any response she got from that guy.
"Hum?" she looked beside her, and found him absent-minded, tracing the corners of the empty glass in front of him. Sure enough, her words didn't reach to his ears.
Airi glanced at Shiro sitting across her, and getting the hint, he waved his hands in front of Alex. "Dude, you there?"
Alex jumped a little, snapping back to reality. "Ah, yeah, did you say something?"
"Senpai was asking what you will like to have? What are you thinking so hard about?" Shiro tilted his head to a side, not getting his friend's behavior.
"Alex, you know neither of us would really mind if you had taken a rain check and go to Sayuri, huh?" Airi put the menu card away, staring straight at Alex. And her words finally clicked to Shiro.
