It's only now that Ken realized. That all this time. He had been recognizing the wrong person.
"Eh! I'm sorry! I... I've misrecognized you. " Ken tried to get up to apologize. But A chu prevented him.
"Ha ha ha. You don't need to apologize at all ha ha ha. Anyone can be mistaken for someone. No need to bother" A chu said cheerfully. Suddenly his face changed. "In that case. Will our friendship be canceled. After you found out. That I'm a nobody?"
"Eh! Of course not, of course not," Ken replied quickly. "What's a title and an empty name. Besides..."
Ken's words were cut off by the noise of someone outside the door.
"Excuse me, sir. Your special meal is ready. May I take it into the room now?" It was the servant's voice.
"What specialty?" asked Ken.
"Noodles."
Ken and A chu looked at each other. Then they both laughed.
