Let's talk about something

"Is this the cafe?"

"Un."

Saki looked at the modest cafe in front of her and put a cautious expression on her face. She took a deep breath and prepared herself since she knew the moment they entered this face, they might enter a different world. The world that she had never thought she would ever think of entering in the past. However, she was about to enter it now.

While Saki was quite curious, she knew she needed to protect him.

'I have to protect him!' Saki made up her mind.

Shishio didn't know what Saki was thinking about, but one thing was for sure, this girl might be overthinking. "Let's go."

"Okay."

By holding hands, they entered the cafe together.

The sound of a chime sounded in the cafe, and they were greeted by several people, but before they finished their greeting, they were stunned.

"Wel---"

"....." 3x

Whether it was Masaki Kobayashi, Fumiya Kurimoto, or Ayano-san (a female waitress in the cafe), they looked at Shishio speechlessly. They still remembered how Shishio proclaimed he only loved Shiina, yet he came to the cafe again, but with a different girl.

While Fumiya bit a towel in jealousy, Masaki welcomed the two of them with a smile and asked, "Where's Mashiro-chan, Shishio-kun?"

Fumiya and Ayano quickly shut their mouths and waited for the exciting drama in front of them to unfold. They knew Masaki decided to reveal Shishio, who was known as a scumbag, and they were curious how Shishio and Saki were going to handle this situation.

However, Shishio and Saki just sat on the counter seat relaxedly before he said, "She's at home. She should be drawing a manga now."

"....." Fumiya and Ayano.

Masaki looked at Saki and didn't see much of a change in her expression. He then looked at Shishio thoughtfully and asked, "What do you want to order?"

"Ice coffee."

"Me too."

Saki didn't really want to order something heavy, and iced coffee was enough for her.

"You don't want to eat?" Masaki asked.

Shishio touched his stomach and said, "It's been a while since I've eaten your Napolitan. I'll get that one too."

"Okay." Masaki nodded, then asked with his girly gesture. "What about you?"

Saki's lips twitched, and she could tell instantly that this man should be the one that Shishio talked about. Still, Masaki was better than she had imagined since she had thought he would be wearing lipstick and wore a lady dress. However, Masaki only wore a bartender-like uniform with long hair.

If Masaki didn't act lady-like, Saki wouldn't think he was a woman in a man's body.

"If you have eaten, then you don't need to force yourself. Still, if you're curious, I can share my Napolitan with you later. It has a huge portion after all." Shishio must admit the portion that was given by Masaki for the Napolitan was huge. Last time Shiina couldn't finish her Napolitan, and it was he who had to eat the rest.

"Okay." Saki nodded and agreed. She had eaten many things with him, whether it was his food or his white liquid, so just sharing food with him was nothing.

"Okay, wait for a moment~~." Masaki walked to the kitchen with a girlish voice before he said, "Oh, right! Did you come because you miss me, Shishio-kun?"

"...No." Shishio was speechless, but then he asked, "But can I ask you something, Masaki-san?"

"Geez! Call me, Marie!" Masaki pouted, but then he said, "Okay, but you have to answer my question too, alright?"

"Okay." Shishio wasn't sure what kind of question Masaki wanted to ask, but it might be related to Shiina, so he didn't really mind. He didn't really hide the fact he was a scumbag, and it didn't really matter even if the whole world knew about it since even if they knew, there was nothing they could do anyway.

However, Shishio still wanted to keep the identity of his women secret since he didn't want them to be troubled by his reputation, and he hoped their daily life wouldn't be interrupted by annoying flies.

Still, such a problem hadn't appeared and might be impossible to happen since he had mostly controlled the whole school.

Anyway, Shishio wasn't going to come to think about this matter. Instead, he came to ask Masaki for a ladyboy since he needed it for his book.

As for Fumiya and Ayako-san, the two weren't exactly close with Shishio, so they just greeted him politely like how the other guest was. They had been working at the cafe for a while, and they had met many types of people. While Shishio might be a scumbag, they had seen something worse than him, so they didn't have many expressions besides curiosity.

Still, Fumiya was jealous to death.

On the other hand, Ayako-san sighed and thought the handsome guy was all a scumbag. However, she must admit his face was really her type. Unfortunately, she had a husband and a boy already, so it was impossible for a relationship to unfold between them.

Unless Ayako-san dared to embark on the path without a return.

However, it was impossible since Ayako-san didn't have such a deep feeling toward Shishio.

Still, if Shishio tried to chase Ayako-san seriously, it might be possible, though.

However, it was better to talk about this matter later.

Fumiya and Ayako-san didn't say much and waited for Masaki to return since they could eavesdrop on their conversation at that time.

While Masaki prepared their order, Saki and Shishio talked to each other.

Also, Saki must admit while the owner of this cafe was quite doubtful, this place was quite comfortable, and many people seemed happy to stay in this place. "By the way, did you invite everyone to the theme park because of Usa?"

"Can you see it?" Shishio asked.

"Isn't it obvious?" Saki sighed and asked, "He really likes Ritsu, huh?"

"You can see it too?"

"Isn't it obvious?" Saki rolled her eyes and sighed again. "The only one who hasn't noticed is probably Ritsu herself." She must admit Ritsu was pretty much clueless about romance.

"Instead of clueless, I think she doesn't care about romance," Shishio said after hearing Saki's words.

"I don't think so. She's very interested in romance, right?" Saki said while looking at Shishio with a thoughtful expression.

"..."

"Cough! Cough!" Shishio coughed hard, but then he asked, "By the way, don't you want to bring your little sister to the theme park on Saturday?"

Saki knew Shishio tried to change the topic of the conversation, but she didn't think too much and asked, "Is that okay?"

"Miu is probably going to bring her little sister without a doubt." When Shishio thought about Miu's little sister's personality, he knew that the little devil would beg Miu while crying to bring her with them.

"Well, I'll talk with my little sister then..." Saki's expression was softened when Shishio told her she could bring her little sister.

"....."

Shishio looked at Saki and kissed her cheek.

"....." Saki was stunned, and with a bright crimson face, she asked, "Wh-Why did you kiss me so suddenly?"

"Sorry, it's just you're so cute before," Shishio said since he must admit that this girl's expression was quite unfriendly. However, when she smiled, she was so cute that he couldn't help but want to tease her.

Saki snorted, but she leaned her head on his shoulder. "Let's stay together tonight."

"Okay."

Saki smiled when Shishio agreed without hesitation and rubbed her face slightly on his shoulder.

"Um, can I ask you something?"

Unexpectedly, Ayako-san couldn't handle it anymore and came to them while looking at Shishio.

"Yes?"

Ayako-san wanted to say something, but no words came out of her mouth, especially when she realized how rude her action was. Luckily, Masaki came and patted her shoulder gently. "Let me handle this. You should go to that guest since it seems she needs more water."

"Ah, yes!" Ayako quickly excused herself and walked toward the guest who needed her help.

"Geez, she's sure impatient." Masaki let out a helpless sigh before he served two iced coffees ordered by Shishio and Saki. "Here you go. Two iced coffees."

"Thanks." 2x

"By the way, Shishio-kun, why did you cheat on Mashiro-chan? How can you be such a cute girl?" Masaki asked without hesitation, which caused Fumiya and Ayako-san to almost stagger. While the two must admit they were also quite curious, they weren't as rude as Masaki since this guy was blatantly asking Shishio why Shishio became a scumbag.

"I don't cheat on her," Shishio said calmly.

"Huh?!" 3x

Not only was Masaki dumbfounded, but Fumiya and Ayako-san were dumbfounded.

"But what about this girl?" Masaki turned his gaze at Saki.

"She's also my girlfriend. I date them together with their consent," Shishio said.

"...." Fumiya felt the universe spin in his head. He had never encountered this situation and felt his common sense crumble. However, more than anything, he was so jelly!

"Oh, if you get their consent, then it is alright." Masaki nodded.

"....." Fumiya.

"Is that okay with you?" Shishio asked curiously.

Masaki smiled and said, "Don't underestimate me. I have lived longer than you, and I have many "experienced," so it isn't my first time seeing a scumbag. However, most of them are harming the women, and they just want the body of the woman, but I hope you don't do something like that since I can see whether it is this girl or Mashiro-chan, they're all good girls, so don't betray their trust, alright?"

Saki and Shishio looked at Masaki for a moment, and for the first time, they thought this guy was kind of handsome.

Without a doubt, if Masaki was a normal guy, this guy would be popular with women. Still, even if this guy was gay, without a doubt, this guy was still popular.

"Wait a moment here. I'll take out your Napolitan since it is almost ready. Let's continue our talk after that," Masaki said and left for the kitchen.

When Masaki left, Saki whispered, "He isn't that bad."

"Right? So just don't judge something by the appearance," Shishio said.

Saki nodded and took his words to her heart.

"However, I must admit everyone also needs to just do something by appearance," Shishio said.

"....." Saki was lost for words and asked, "Just what do you mean?"

"I mean, it just depends on the situation. Also, while we know we shouldn't judge people for their appearance, their appearance can tell everything about them, so be careful. You're a beautiful girl after all," Shishio said and caressed her back gently.

While people often say one shouldn't judge someone by their appearance. It is impossible for one not to do so, especially when you face someone who is holding a gun or knife. When you meet such people, you should run to a safe place instead of trying to get to know them, especially when they are full of anxiety, anger, and other negative emotions.

If you don't want to die, just stay away from someone like that.

"Yeah, I'll be careful, but even if I encounter a dangerous situation again, you'll save me, right?" Saki asked with a smile.

"Of course," Shishio said and kissed Saki's forehead gently.

Saki smiled and thought her days were wonderful when Shishio came into her life, and she wanted to be with him from now on, even in the future.
