Chapter 248

"Has someone been here?"

Kato Megumi arrived in the living room and first noticed the cup Kitakami Yoru hadn't had time to tidy up.

A moment later, she saw that a patch on the small sofa was wet.

"I'll go get you some drinks."

Kitakami Yoru didn't pay attention to this and walked quickly into the kitchen.

"Was it a girl?"

Kato Megumi picked up the cup, rotated it to check against the light, and saw the faint lip print and lipstick residue on it.

Her gaze changed slightly, and she whispered:

"A girl was just at Kitakami-kun’s house?"

"Who is it?"

At this time, Kitakami Yoru came out with some drinks and fruit from the kitchen refrigerator, completely unaware of the abnormality.

Kato Megumi had heard the footsteps early on, put the cup back in its original place, and kept a calm expression.

"The house is a bit messy."

Kitakami Yoru smiled apologetically, not having had time to tidy up.

"Is a friend coming over?"

Kato Megumi spoke flatly, her gaze constantly lingering on Kitakami Yoru.

"Yes, have some fruit."

Kitakami Yoru admitted it generously.

"Lately, I feel... Kitakami-kun hasn't been looking for me very often..."

Kato Megumi said in a tone that carried a bit of reproach.

After speaking, she puffed out her cheeks slightly.

In the past, the chubby Kitakami Yoru would often take the initiative to contact her.

Now that he had lost weight, the contact was becoming less and less.

Kato Megumi could clearly perceive that some things were quietly passing away.

"Eh?!"

Surprised by the question, Kitakami Yoru froze for a while, then smiled and replied: "But the relationship between Megumi and me has never changed."

"Hmph hmph."

Kato Megumi pursed her lips lightly and lifted the bag in her hand.

"What is it?"

Kitakami Yoru sat on a small chair.

"A gift for you, some snacks."

Kato Megumi opened the bag and took out two boxes of desserts.

The Kitakami Yoru from before couldn't eat them, but now it didn't matter; eating a little occasionally was fine.

"Let's eat together."

Kitakami Yoru said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, Kitakami-kun wanted to give me one of these hats, right?"

Kato Megumi nodded lightly with a flat expression, feeling a bit regretful in her heart.

Why didn't she accept it at the time?

Something from Kitakami Yoru had a different meaning.

"Yes, later I gave it to my mother; this hat suits you very well."

Kitakami Yoru said as he stood up, and added: "I have water boiling in the kitchen, I'll go check it first."

In the kitchen, the electric kettle was bubbling, and a large amount of water vapor was coming out of the spout.

He opened the lid and unplugged the power.

"There are quite a few guests at home today."

"Megumi and Nanami are both so suitable to be girlfriends."

Kitakami Yoru wasn't a fool; he could vaguely perceive it.

Aoyama Nanami and Kato Megumi seemed to like him a bit.

To be safer, at least they had a good impression, right?

Realizing this, Kitakami Yoru had to face certain facts.

Hmm...

What if... he liked them all, and wanted them all, what should he do?

After struggling for a while, Kitakami Yoru didn't come out of the kitchen for a long time, and Kato Megumi stood up and quietly came to the doorway.

"What's wrong?"

The moment Kitakami Yoru turned his head and saw Kato Megumi at the kitchen door, he was really given a big fright.

"Nothing, I just saw that you hadn't come out for a long time."

Kato Megumi shook her head lightly.

Subsequently, Kitakami Yoru and Kato Megumi returned to the living room sofa to sit and chat.

Kato Megumi finally suggested going out for a stroll and having dinner.

Kitakami Yoru, of course, agreed.

Having slept until nearly noon and only eating a little fruit to pad his stomach, he had been hungry since evening.

Changing his clothes, Kitakami Yoru took his phone and went out for a stroll with Kato Megumi.

They didn't go anywhere to play, just wandered through the surrounding streets and alleys at random.

Dinner was settled at a ramen shop.

Kitakami Yoru ordered seafood ramen, which had a few peeled large shrimp and shellfish, and was slightly spicy.

"Is it delicious?"

Kato Megumi said, dipping a soup spoon into the noodle soup, scooping up the rich soup, blowing on it, and sending it into her mouth.

"Delicious, I prefer light and fresh ramen."

Kitakami Yoru picked up a large clump of noodles.

"I want to try yours."

Kato Megumi raised her chopsticks and glanced at her own fried pork cutlet ramen.

Hearing this, Kitakami Yoru was slightly surprised; this was a bit too intimate, right?

He had already eaten the ramen, unlike swapping at lunch.

Thinking this in his heart, he wouldn't mind Kato Megumi, so he nodded lightly.

Kato Megumi smiled slightly at the corner of her mouth, used her chopsticks to pick up some of Kitakami Yoru’s noodles, and put them into her own bowl.

Then, she sent them into her mouth.

Finishing dinner, Kitakami Yoru and Kato Megumi walked outside for a while.

It was dark, so they said goodbye and left.

"See you next week then."

Kitakami Yoru got into the car first, turned his head, and waved at Kato Megumi.

"See you next week."

Kato Megumi sighed slightly, feeling inexplicably reluctant in her heart.

She wanted to stay with Kitakami Yoru forever...

What should she do?

On the way home, Kitakami Yoru rejected several girls who came up to chat him up.

After eight o'clock in the evening, he returned home.

After playing with San-San for a while, he finished showering and brushing his teeth and lay back on the bed.

Full of energy, he had no sleepiness at all for a while.

Picking up the art book on the nightstand, Kitakami Yoru flipped to a page at random and checked it roughly.
