Chapter 21 - Poison?

Saturday Morning,

Kaoru was nervously waiting at the Tokyo plaza. She was wearing her best outfit today, she was wearing light make-up, which she doesn't usually do. While she was waiting she took a mini-mirror out of her pocket, and then she looked at her reflection in the mirror.

She was looking at the mini-mirror to see if there was something wrong with her appearance, after confirming that there wasn't she put the mini-mirror back in her pocket, and a moment later, she took that mini-mirror again and started looking if something was wrong with her appearance.

Kaoru had been doing this several times already, she had lost count of how many times she checked her current appearance with her mirror!

At this point, she was like a girl waiting for her crush to arrive, which is the case, because she was too focused on checking her appearance. She failed to realize that people were looking at her, mostly married women who were smiling at her saying.

"Fufu, this brings back memories of me when I was young!"

"I was like her back in my age, ahhh~ those precious memories."

And at exactly 10:00 AM, Junichi arrived at the plaza.

Seeing him arrive, the smile on Kaoru's face was blooming, and because of her lovely smile the people around couldn't help but look at her beautiful smile, only this smile could be made when that particular person saw the person they loved.

Junichi approached her, and said,

"Sorry, did I make you wait?"

"No, I just arrived here!"

Junichi was staring at her silently, he knows that she lied but it's better if he doesn't expose her, while staring at her, he was also checking her appearance, only a fool wouldn't notice that she was going all out with her appearance.

"Kaoru, she looks beautiful today."

Hearing that, Kaoru blushed while smiling happily, those were the words that she had been waiting to hear, every effort she made was worth it, she couldn't describe how happy she is right now.

"Th-thank you."

Junichi smiled at her, then he thought. Rule 1, If you go on a date, saying she's beautiful is a major priority! No matter how ugly her appearance is, you have to praise her but not too much, because that isn't praising anymore it's called bootlicking, either this is based on my experience in my previous life, girls are creatures that are hard to understand but at least I know this much.'

"What are you thanking me for? I'm merely stating facts, anyway, I made you wait long enough let's go."

"O-okay!"

After that, their date finally started.

---

At a steakhouse, both Kaoru and Junichi were sitting at a table at the corner, while waiting for their order to arrive. Kaoru had a worried expression on her face, Junichi noticed this, however instead of reading her mind, he decided to ask her personally instead.

"Hey, what's up with the nervous look?"

"Umm...I know I shouldn't say this since it will ruin the mood but...are you sure your money is enough to pay the bills here?" She said that was the thing that worried her right now.

"True, it ruins the mood but, Kaoru, do you think that I'll go to this place If I can't afford to pay the bills here? Forget the money, since the purpose of this date is to have fun together and not to worry."

"Right, what you said is true, I'm sorry for that anyway aside from that, eating meat in the morning? Really?" Kaoru said with a strange expression.

"And? Is that a problem?"

"Of course it is! Meat in the morning isn't good for your health!"

"Says who?"

"W-well I just heard it from someone."

"Heh? Is that so? But still, we're eating, unhealthy or healthy. It doesn't really matter, while we are still young we should live a free and wonderful life."

"Still…"

"Sheesh, you worry too much, since we are in high school we should live an unrestrained life."

"I..alright."

Kaoru finally gave up, she knows it's pointless to continue this conversation of why you shouldn't eat meat in the morning.

Junichi wondered why one shouldn't eat meat in the morning, back in his previous life, it didn't matter whether it's the day, night, midnight, dawn, or rainy days they eat meat, as long as there is meat, he thought. 'It's probably a cultural thing.

A few minutes later, the steak they ordered had finally been cooked and it was currently being served at their table, and Junichi was rather stunned after seeing the steak he ordered.

Usually, the dishes in the picture are bigger than the actual product, but this wasn't the case with this one! It wasn't small, nor was it the same size as the menu picture, instead the actual dish was way bigger than the picture!

To others this might be a surprise, but to him, it's like Jesus finally came down to earth or Satan repented for his mistakes, this was a shocking matter to him.

This was the first time he experienced such a thing, so his first reaction was.

"Is this meat poisoned?"

"Excuse me?" The waitress was stunned hearing his words.

---

Outside the steakhouse, Kaoru had an embarrassed look on her face.

"What the heck are you thinking Junichi?! How could you say that the meat had poison on it?!"

Junichi shrugs, and replies. "My bad, it was just too suspicious, so I thought the meat had a defect or something."

"Which part of it is suspicious?!"

"Look, the dishes that are in the picture are supposed to be different from the actual product! But they gave us the same as the picture but...it is way bigger if it's not suspicious then what it is?"

Kaoru gave him a 'are you for real?' expression.

"Hey, don't give me that look, my bad, okay?"

"Sigh~ You know because of what you did, everyone was looking at us with a hostile expression, you know that?"

"Of course, I'm aware but it's not like they'll harm us in any way, I'm merely stating my concerns."

"You know what, let's stop talking about that, let's move on."

"Sure."

So the two of them continued their date…

By the way, they got kicked because the place manager got offended by Junichi's words.

..

Inside the steakhouse,

The manager stared outside the shop with an irritated expression.

"That kid, how dare he say that my restaurant meat is poisoned!"

Then he looked at the steak that Junichi ordered, and then he decided to eat a piece of it and said.

"Hah! Poisoned my ass! It's perfectly fin-ugh...ah..ah he-help!"

He collapsed in the ground twitching, a week after that incident the steakhouse closed because they lost all of their customers.

The manager collapsed not because of some poison, but essential hypertension, basically he was just unlucky that he got an attack at that very moment, because of that he lost his job and he got blamed for it.

(End-)

Note: For those who don't know Essential hypertension basically it's high blood pressure which is common with obese people, the manager was a fat bastard so there you have it.
