Chapter 174 - Date 1

Haru had finished opening his cafe and waited for Megumi to come to the department store. He was sitting in the cafe while reading about the information about the haunted building that was sold quite cheaply. He is also thought to be selling his gold too on the black market later.

"What are you reading?"

Haru, who was familiar with this voice, wasn't surprised, but he felt that her ability to erase her presence had increased, "The haunted building that I wanted to buy."

"Are you really going to buy that haunted place?" Megumi asked.

"Yeah, my house before is also haunted but I have exorcised it," Haru said and looked at her, "I know that it is quite late but you're very beautiful."

Megumi said, "True, you too, I can see that a lot of girls are looking at you."

"Yes, but my attention is only on you," Haru said and held her hand while caressing it slowly.

Megumi smiled, "You're really good at this."

"Maybe I have a talent for this," Haru said, and asked, "Do you want to drink something?"

"Let me drink try yours," Megumi asked.

"Sure," Haru gave her his lemon tea.

Megumi drank it for a bit and nodded, "Alright, I want to buy some clothes."

Haru nodded, "It is okay, I will accompany you." He had been away for a few months in another world and this was his first time to see her. He held her hand tenderly and walked together around the department store.

Both of them checked a lot of stores while talking to each other.

"You don't have to pay for it," Kato said.

"Why?" Haru asked.

"Because in the future, I will get used to it, I don't want to use your money all the time," Kato said.

"Kato...." Haru wasn't sure but he felt very lucky to have her. He thought for a bit and shook his head, "No, just think of it as a prize from me since...." He almost told her that he had been away for a few months.

"Since?" Kato looked at him with a curious expression.

"Since this is our first date," Haru said.

Kato looked at him for a bit and nodded, "Alright, I will accept it."

"Good," Haru nodded.

"Now that you mention it, you want to buy that haunted building right?" Megumi said and asked, "What are you going to do with that haunted building?"

"I'm planning to make a gym," Haru said.

"Gym?" Megumi didn't expect him to make a gym.

"Is it very unexpected?" Haru asked.

"Yeah, I have heard that you need an instructor license for that," Megumi said.

"It's okay, I have a way to do that," Haru nodded after researching a lot of things before he decided to create a gym. He looked at her and asked, "Are you still practicing with C7?"

Megumi nodded, "Yes, Sensei has always come every night."

"She comes every night?" Haru asked.

Megumi nodded, "Yes, it is very interesting to learn from her."

"..."

"Is it really fun?" Haru felt weird.

"Yeah, do you want to learn it?" Megumi asked.

Haru shook his head, "Anyway, you should be careful."

"Be careful?" Megumi asked.

"Yeah, your presence is very small, I'm afraid that if you become a ninja, I won't be able to find you anymore," Haru said.

Suddenly he felt that his arm was pinched by her.

"Ouch," Haru turned and saw her pouting.

"You are always teasing me like that," Megumi pouted.

"It's because you're very cute," Haru caressed her head slowly. He traced her hair and thought that her hair was longer than usual, "Are you trying to make your hair longer?"

Megumi nodded, "Yes, what do you think?"

"I think it's good to try to have a ponytail later," Haru said.

Megumi looked at him and asked, "Do you like ponytails?"

"I love it," Haru nodded as he felt that ponytail was the best hairstyle for a girl in the world.

"Perverted..." Megumi said.

"But this pervert is your boyfriend," Haru said.

Megumi blushed, "Let's go to the optic store." She said and pulled his hand.

"Optic store? Do you need glasses?" Haru asked to enter the glasses store.

Megumi looked around and picked one with a black frame, "Try this."

Haru didn't say anything and tried the glasses.

Megumi was a bit stunned but nodded, "This is very good." She looked around and picked the silver frame one, "Try this one too."

"Do you want me to wear glasses?" Haru asked while trying on other glasses.

"Yeah, you are always on the computer to write right? Maybe you can use it to protect your eyes from computer radiation," Megumi said, and added, "Let me buy it for you this time."

Haru thought that he didn't really need it since his physics made it hard for him to get sick but he didn't reject her idea since it was their first time to have a date, "Thank you."

"No problem," Megumi looked around and was quite excited since she felt that she was playing a with a model, "Try this one too."

Haru looked at her and said, "Do you have a glasses fetish?"

"..."

"Probably," Megumi said.

"It's okay, I can accept your kinks," Haru said.

"Stop saying it like that, you make it sound lewd," Megumi blushed.

Haru laughed and also picked a glasses, "You should try one too, it will be unfair for you to not try it."

"Eh?" Megumi said but nodded. She tried the glasses and asked, "How is it?"

Haru rubbed his chin and said, "You look smart."

"....."

"Do you enjoy teasing me that much?" Megumi asked.

"I'm joking, no, my Megumi is the world's most beautiful," Haru said.

Megumi blushed, "That is a bit too much."

"No way who makes you very loveable in my eyes," Haru shook his head.

They were arguing with each other until someone called him.

"Haru?"

"Akane-sensei?"
