Chapter 6 - - Chapter 6, Coffee Shop -

The house is quiet. Yes, all of the family members of the house are working to sustain the family financial. His 2nd older sister Hiruma, is taking college and also helps herself up for the college payment by working part time in a bread and coffee shop until afternoon, then she goes to college after.

His 1st sister older sister Hirumi, works as a cashier in a store department. She doen't go to college, but she's helping the family financial to be more stable. She also helps on Hiruma College fees and needs as she can spare.

While the lady of the house, Haruka Nonoka, works as a tailor in local tailor shop until afternoon. She always diligently prepare everything in the morning for her children. She spoils them all alot. But them, actually can be independent by themselves. They chose to be with her and help around the house just so she won't feel lonely.

As for Iruma, his income, half of it is given to his mother. He save some and use some for his game. whaling stuffs he likes or needed. And with more OT, means more payload. With more payload, he could make reservations for the 4 of them to somewhere sometimes. Like restaurant, karaoke, lake house recreations, etc. They live freely together like a carefree family.

He stepped in to the kitchen. There's a lunch box and a meal wrapped with foil. there's a note on top of them.

"Iruma-Kun's. Warm em up on microwave. Have a good lunch! Love you! -Mom

P.S.

You girls, mind your own boxes which has been prepared! love you all! again. xoxo"

He smiles, pulling a chair out from the bench. He puts his bag and on the chair, he puts on the t-shirt but did not tighten the button yet. He took both meals which his mom has prepared with his hands. Then, he put them in to the microwave. He set a timer on the microwave and waiting for the microwave to finish warming up the foods while tightening his t-shirt's buttons. He was thinking over the fantasy dreams that he oftenly dreamt about while he did those mentioned.

'Who was the lady that keeps on appearing in my dreams? Haruka? No.. it can't be. Haruka Onee-San perhaps looks like a yandere from outside, but the Lady is more to the Ara-Ara onee-san side. How could I feel so familiar with the lady in the dream but not knowing who she is?', he murmurmed in his mind. Thinking. Keeps on trying to figuring out who the lady was.

'Ting!!' The microwave make an alarming sound as it finished warming up the foods.

He took them all out, take the boxed lunch in the bag and opening up the wrapped meal.

He took a spoon, and a glass from the cupboard. he fill his glass with water. he moved back to the dining table, sits down and enjoying his meal.

Time passes by as he finished his meal. [11.00 AM] in that lovely Tuesday. He washes the dishes, cleans them up and put them on the drying shelves next to the sink.

Then, he grabs his bag, and walk through the hallway to the front door, wearing up his socks and shoes, he goes out the house, and locked the front door. Then he starts to walk his way to the bus station to work.

His shift starts at [01.00 PM], he goes out earlier today as he wanted to go to the 'ATM' for quick cash withdrawal for his daily needs.

He rides on the bus at [11.15 AM], Stopped by the 2nd bus stop station at [11.35 AM]. He arrived in a crowded city place.

(his workplace is 1 bus stop away and walkable)

He walks his way up on the nearest 'ATM', the 'ATM' machine did not crowded as that day was not a payday time.

He never likes waiting in a line withdrawing funds on payday. He always manage his funds carefully so that he can always skipped the payday withdrawal on the later day when he need them. He really-really doesn't really like standing in such a LoOoOong Line. well.. who does?

He took some cash from the machine, walking his way to his Hiruma Onee-san workplace to get some coffee.

He arrived at the bread store at [11.58 AM] that time.

He is looking at Hiruma's working passionately, with her warm smile greeting the customers and help them with their orders.

She realized Iruma was outside, she gives him a smile, Iruma smiled back and nod, and walk his way through to the cashier. Hiruma as well, moving her way to the back of the cashier, whispered to her barista coworker, the coworker smiled, and nodded, then both of them giggled.

Iruma saw those, while waiting his turn on the line.

As his turn finally comes up, his coffee is already prepared.

"Allright, special for I.RU.MA.KUN~!", Said the cashier while handing out the packed coffee. She blinked her eye to the barista who heard the cashier who shouted Iruma's name out loud.

The Barista shocked, and blushed. trying to hide her face but she can't due to her work. Iruma who heard that became a little bit flustered. His face also a little bit blushed red, but his expression remains calm. Trying to maintain his composures. (Iruma uses Hirumi's Sleepy Pokerface! Slightly Effective!).

"Th..Thanks.. how much?", He said.

"Umm.. Hiruma-san has already paid for it, but.. if you want to pay more, I take it!", said the cashier girl.

"Ahaha. No. thanks.", he said as he's trying to hide his blushed face from shy. He maintains his face as calm as possible and walk out from the shop.

"Pfftt!! Cheeky!! Come again Cute I.RU.MA.KUN~", The cashier girl teased iruma who slowly walks away with blushed face. Yet, pretending to be calm.
