Chapter 6
Natsumi starts running faster as she was mote than a hour late to her part time job. After running for some minutes she arrives at her part time job work place. She her work place by the back door of the restaurant. She opens the door and went inside her part time job's place.
Natsumi said this after she enters :"I am sorry that I am late. I am gonna start walking right away."
Iro-San was standing in front of the backdoor's entrance so she hears that and replies to her like this :"You don't need to work today we have enough worker for today."
Natsumi knew that only she and her senior is working today. She replies to her like this :"Enough worker? But today only I and senior should be working."
Iro-San replies to her like this :"We got a new worker .Though he said that he is only gonna work for today."
Natsumi gets curious about that new worker. She (Natsumi) asks her like this :"Who?"
Iro-San looks at the direction of the reception. Natsumi looks at the reception. She didn't even thought of the possibility that it could be that strange guy. But it was that strange guy she meet earlier.
Natsumi thought to herself after seeing him [What is he doing here? Don't tell me it's because I told him. Even though I didn't tell him where I am working. How did he know it?]
Natsumi senior comes out from the staff room wearing the restaurant uniform. She saw that Natsumi had arrived.
Maki asks her like this :"Natsumi! How are you doing?"
Natsumi replies to her like this :"I am fine." She her reply to her (Maki) by asking like this :"What about you, senpai?"
Maki replies to her like this :"I am also fine."
Natsumi asks her like this :"Are you not working today?"
Maki replies to her like this :"I am. But this boy is better than me at boh serving and cashing and cooking. Both of us were amazed by how good he is. Then Iro-San asked him to do the serving because.... I hate to admit it but he is way better than me at work. He is better worker than me every way possible. He is the best junior worker I had in my entire life."
Natsumi thought to herself [Best junior? What did he do achieve that title. Though I don't want to become the number one.]
Iro-San yells at her (Maki) like this :"Maki! Why are you talking instead of working? Start working right away!!!"
Maki closes her and puts both of her behind her head holding her head. She replies to Iro-San while walking towards the direction of the reception like this :"Okay, Okay. I am going."
Maki walks to the reception's counter to take money from the customers. She starts working on the counter.
Iro-San replies to her (Natsumi) like this :"Natsumi if you want to work then you can come one hour and thirty minutes later."
That strange guy comes to the reception's counter after serving the customers.
That strange guy replies to her (Iro-San) like this :"The manager. I am finishing my work shift after this hour."
Iro-San asks him like this :"Why? Did something happened?"
That strange guy replies to her like this:"It's just that I have some emergency works to do."
Iro-San saddens and replies to him like this :"I guess then it's fine.
That strange guy looks at her (Natsumi). He makes eye contact with her.
That strange guy replies to her (Natsumi) while looking her like this :"You can ask me whatever you want after I finish my work."
Iro-San saw that he said that to her (Natsumi). She looks at her and asks her (Natsumi) like this :"Do you know him?"
Natsumi replies to her like this :"Yes, I know him but it's kind of complicated"
He leaves and goes right back to the counter. Maki comes there after hearing what Natsumi said.
Maki asks her (Natsumi) like this :"Is he your boyfriend?"
Natsumi replies to her with a discomforting face like this :"No he isn't my boyfriend!!"
Maki was disappointed in her reply. She replies to her (Natsumi) like this :""I thought you guys would have been a great couple."
Natsumi replies to her like this :"My friend also said that."
Maki gets curious about her friend. She asks her (Natsumi) like this :"Your friend? What is her name?"
Natsumi asks her like this :"Didn't I told you the other day?" She continues her reply to her (Maki) by answering her question like this :"Her name is Kona"
Maki remember that she (Natsumi) told her sometime ago. She bawls her right hand and put it on her left hand's palm. She replies to her like this :"I remembered. So that's who she is. Your friend have good eyes."
Natsumi thought to herself after hearing that from her [What do you mean by good eyes? More likely a good eyes for idiot.]
Iro-San gets more angry at her (Maki) because of her attitude and behavior while not doing any work whatsoever. She yells at Maki saying this to her like this :"Maki why are you here? Go back to your work immediately."
Maki replies to her like this :"Okay. I just heard you guys talking about that boy that's why I came over."
Iro-San gets more angrier at her. She replies to her like this :"I don't want to hear any excuse! Now go to your work immediately!!"
Maki leaves to the reception's counter again to do her cause she just came back again.
Iro-San asks her like this :"Natsumi do you want to work today?" She continues her reply to her (Natsumi) like this :"Or if you want you can come to work after thirty minutes or wait here with the same amount of time."
Natsumi replies to her like this :"I don't think I am gonna work today."
Iro-San tries to persuade her to work by saying this to her :"What about today's money?"
Natsumi replies to her like this :"I have exams tomorrow. You also nw that I am not working for money."
Iro-San knew that she couldn't persuade her any further. So she asks her like this:"Ok, Then why are you still at my restaurant?"
Natsumi starts walking to the backdoor. She opens the door. She asks her (Iro-San) like this :"Ok I am leaving. But still you could still behave a little gentler to your worker."
Iro-San replies to her with a voice as if she feels no guilt for behaving like this to them like this :"Sorry for not being a gentle manager to my worker"
Natsumi said this to them :"I'm off."
Natsumi leaves the restaurant. After that she waits outside of the restaurant main gate while waiting for that strange guy. While waiting she buys two pieces of dango to wait and eat cause she was tired of going there and here through the entire day. After she waits for about thirty minutes that strange guy came out from the restaurant through the back door and meets her at the front door.
That strange guy saw her waiting. He comes a bit closer to her and replies to her like this :"You waited for me."
Natsumi crossed her arms over her chest and replies to him like this :"Of course, I am. I have do many questions that I want to ask you." She continues her reply to him by asking this :"By the way why did you actually do it?"
That strange guy asks her like this :"Didn't I told you that I will fulfill your wishes?"
Natsumi asks that strange guy like this :"You said that. But what do you get by doing that?"
That strange guy placed his hand on his cheek. He replies to her like this :"I didn't thought about that like that. Though I don't get paid for doing this"
She thought to herself instead of asking that strange guy [Then why are you doing this?] Midst her thoughts she remembers what he said at that moment.
Natsumi asks that strange guy like this :"The other thing you said. Are they true?"
That strange guy replies to her affirmatively like this :"Yes. They are the truth."
Natsumi asks him like this :"Give me one proof"
That strange guy replies to her like this :"Proof? Hmm"
That strange was still placing his hand on his cheek. He starts to think how to show proof that he is telling the truth. He founds an idea. He puts one of his finger pointing upward. The finger of the hand he placed on his cheek.
That strange guy replies to her like this :"Ask me some questions about you and I am gonna answer those questions"
Natsumi agrees with his proposal and asks him like this :"Ok. Then why am I doing this part time job even though my father is this nation's most famous and richest architecture?"
That strange guy answers her question like this :"Cause you wanted to understand what part time job doing feel like. Like any other person"
Natsumi was amazed by seeing and hearing that the answer is really the reason. She indeed wanted to find out how any other normal people would feel after doing a part time job. And she never told that to anyone other than her parents.
Natsumi asks him another question like this :"What is my age then?"
That strange guy replies to her question like this :"Seventeen."
Natsumi asks him another question like this :"Are you stalking me?"
That strange guy replies to her question like this :"No. Though that's not what you were supposed to ask me"
Natsumi asks him another question like this :"When will I die? And where will I die?"
That strange guy replies to her questions like this :"Five hours later at the shibuya crossing by a car accident"
Natsumi was shocked by hearing his answer
Five hours left before she will die
