More than a couple of weeks had gone by since Kiku and Haruto had started attending school, and they had been adjusting---Rather well.
Granted Ren had been a bit worried at first given their previous situation, but he was happy for both Haruto and Kiku.
Over the course of the first few days, Kiku had already made a friend in class and even hung out in the past few weeks. She had talked about them every chance she had gotten with Ren.
Though she does find them a bit strange---They still made her laugh and smile.
They even helped her join the gymnastics clubs since they themselves were a part of the club.
Haruto made efforts as well and even made friends of his own when he entered the Science Club. Though he ended up causing one or two accidents, he had found his equals when it came to the subject itself.
It had been a peaceful few weeks, with the chatter of the Phantom Thieves still a big topic. Though during that time---They came to realize about another certain problem which they all agreed had to be taken care of in order to give their room a fixer upper.
And that was… Getting a part time job.
They each agreed that they would work jobs that would be on separate days and they also agreed to set aside the money they had for whatever living expenses and improvements they wanted to make to the room.
Today---Had been Kai and Dide's turn to work
"I don't know how you talked me into this…" Kai said as he had been seen in a waiter's uniform.
He and Dide had managed to find work at a family diner that had served noodles and udons, where Kai and Dide had been the servers of the establishment.
"If you wanna get that TV and gaming console for the room we gotta save up." Dide said as he had been getting the bowls ready.
"Yeah but of all the jobs why do I gotta be stuck with you?" Kai asked as his eye twitched.
"Someone has to keep an eye on you just in case you decide to gung ho and punch someone in the face." Dide said.
Kai only clicked his tongue, "In any case you're the one that wants that fancy flatscreen TV! The one at the discount shop near LeBlanc would have sufficed since it's actually affordable!"
"I'd say LeBlanc's could use something fancy once in a while!" Dide said. "Plus Sakura-san would agree!"
"Hey Boys---" The Manager soon said, who had been a middle aged woman who had been cooking up the noodles, "---Less chatting more serving! Their customers waiting!"
"Yes Manager, sorry manager!" Dide said as he handed Kai a tray.
The small establishment had been crowded and brimming with customers. Some had been eating alone, some had been with families and some even had been elderly. Needless to say, it had been an entirely different atmosphere compared to the customers at LeBlanc.
Dide had just finished serving customers as they left. "Thank you very much, come again soon!" Dide said with a bow of his head.
"You're a real natural at this huh?" Kai said as he had been cleaning a table.
Dide replied with confidence, "Had to be a server for a TV Show one time. Good thing that skill came in handy."
"Geez, they just give you any acting gig?" Kai asked before he scoffed, "And people wonder why you don't have a girlfriend."
Dide gave a laugh at this as he said, "Very Funny. For the record, I had Stans and simps of all genders, hell even Co-Stars. But I turn them all down. They say never sleep where you work and relationships in showbiz can lead to disaster. Even Top Idols know that."
"Yeah, yeah, so you say Mr. Ladiesman." Kai said as he took the dishes to the back though it made Dide twitch.
"At least I got the skills with ladies unlike you!" Dide called out.
"OH FUCK OFF!" Kai shouted.
Dide stuck his tongue out in a teasing way, but immediately put a smile on his face when he heard someone enter the establishment.
"Hello Welcome to Udon Paradise! How can I help----Eh?"
Dide immediately stopped when his eyes fell upon a beautiful young girl with chin-length curly light auburn hair and eyes the color of chocolate. She wore a pink turtleneck cardigan with short, puffed sleeves and a long-sleeved white shirt underneath. The cardigan is zipped open up to her navel and has two large pockets on the front. She also had the standard black and red tartan skirt that had been from Shujin, white tights with black carnation flowers and black Mary Jane shoes.
"Table for one please." She said with a friendly and warm smile that seemed to light up the entire room
All Dide could do in that moment was let out screech as his eyes practically came jumping out of his sockets. In that moment he realized… He was smitten.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-LeBlanc Later that Night-
Ren had been staying up late with Haruto and Kiku as they were in a study session; thankfully the cafe had already closed for the night, making the tables available to them. Though the two of them had been having trouble with a couple of subjects in particular. Needless to say---They were both in a rut.
"Kiku-san you got the words mixed up here." Ren said as he had been helping her out with her English Homework, "That word is meant to be used if you're referring to a place."
"Wha-what?!" Kiku said shocked, "Seriously?!" She groaned, "Aw man I really thought I had it…"
"Why do they keep changing math?!" Haruto said as he banged his head on the table, "Math is math damn it! Math is math!"
"I didn't think you guys would be stuck to those kinds of subjects." Morgana said, "Is it really that hard to understand?"
"It is when it's essential to life itself Mo-chan!" Kiku said.
"But you've been reading a lot, shouldn't it be easy?" Shiro asked as he had been sitting in a dog bed that had been nearby.
"That's only because they were all in Japanese…" Kiku said, "... English is just like learning another language."
"That's because it is…" Ren replied awkwardly.
"At this rate we won't be able to pass the upcoming midterm exams…" Haruto said dejectedly, "Goodbye school life…"
Ren only chuckled, "You two are exaggerating. It'll be okay. And on the bright side even if you do get a failing grade, you'll just take a makeup test."
"I guess…" Kiku said, "... But you're so lucky Ren-kun. You're super smart in every subject I can think of, so I bet it comes naturally."
"Well--" Ren said as he turned a little red, "---I wouldn't say I'm super smart."
"I don't think I'll ever understand school life…" Morgana said.
"Me too…" Shiro added.
Just then they could hear the bell go off; when they looked over they saw Kai and Dide step in the cafe. Though Dide looked to be in a daze. "Tadaima." Kai said as he looked exhausted.
"Okaeri na sai." Kiku, Haruto, Ren, Morgana and Shiro said.
"How was the job today?" Haruto asked.
"Same as usual---" Kai said, as he took a seat, "---Cept Dide here was acting way more off than usual towards the end of the shift."
"Really why?" Ren asked as he noticed the dazed look on Dide's face.
"Some girl came into the restaurant and he just started acting like a spazz." Kai explained, "He even kept dropping the noodles. Thank God the manager gave us our pay and didn't fire us on the spot."
"Dide---" Shiro said, "---Are you okay?"
Dide kept speaking in mumbles much to the group's shock.
"Uhh---what?" Ren asked.
"Dide-san?" Kiku said
Kai groaned before he smacked his head as Dide shouted "BEAUTIFUL PINK CARDIGAN WOMAN!" he covered his mouth as he looked at the group as he cleared his throat. "Oh-hey guys."
"Don't give us that." Morgana said. "We heard what you said--so what ever happened to not being in love as a former Teen celeb?"
Dide had a look before he turned around and got his mask as he shouted "OOGA BOOGA BOOGA!"
"MERROW!" Morgana screeched as he jumped and latched to the ceiling.
"Seriously Dide-san--What gives?" Haruto said.
"It's nothing." Dide said as he walked to his bed. "Work was--Working as usual."
"Okay even your sentences are messed up." Ren said, "Are you sure you're alright?"
"Dandy." Dide said as he laid down.
"You sure didn't look dandy at work today." Kai said.
"Shut it, kai." Dide said as he read his book in the background of the day and though---
"Dide, the book is upside down." Ren said.
Dide immediately flipped it as he said "It's for practice. Think how you play video games upside down."
"I'm sure that term doesn't relate.." Shiro said.
His rooster, Mamodou and his Chicken Harumi flocked towards him as they rested beside him with him petting the two.
Kiku had been eyeing him with suspicion as he had looked nervous even when drinking his soda. She even noticed the book he had been reading had been of romance, then there was what he said earlier when he had been in a daze. Only one thing seemed logical in that moment as she drew a conclusion.
"Dide-san---" She soon said before asking, "---Did you---Meet a girl at work?"
Dide immediately flinched as he choked on his drink before he started to cough making the group jump.
"N-No, Kiku! Remember what I--" Dide said as he coughed "Say about workplace relations."
"Wait---" Kai said before he recalled. It seemed to all fit as he realized it himself, "---That girl that came into the Noodle House!"
"NO, NO, NO, NO!" Dide shrieked.
"That's why you were acting weird the whole time!" Kai said before he gave a look, "... Fucking hypocrite."
"NO--!" Dide said. "I STILL STAND BY MY WORD! AS A FORMER CELEB EVEN GETTING INTO RELATIONSHIPS WILL LEAD TO PROBLEMS ON THE WAY!"
"Wait, what?" Ren said, "Dide has a crush?"
"You have a crush?!" Haruto said as his eyes lit up.
"No! I don't have a crush! And best believe I aint interested in anyone!" Dide said. "You don't see me eying Ann do you."
"Good." Kai and Morgana said with a look.
"Dide--it's okay to have a crush." Ren said, "It's healthy."
"No Ren, it's Not okay!" Dide said before he buried his face in his arms. "I am a celebrity trying to lay low! Do you know Japanese Paparazzi are JUST as annoying as American Paparazzi?! The last thing I need is for them to flock over to LeBlanc asking unnecessary questions! I'm lucky none of them know where I live now!"
"But---" Kiku said, "---It's a part of school life to fall for a girl isn't it?"
"For Normal People, yes." Dide said. "Me, I don't have that luxury!"
"But you're normal." Kiku said.
"Aww, that's sweet---" Dide said, "--But too bad I don't feel that way. I mean Not just me. What if that girl knows about my history? Hell, that incident was broadcasted all over. People still talk about it to this day."
"How would ya know?" Kai asked. "You know some people don't watch TV or even the movies all the time"
"But there's social media." Dide said. "Everyone is on it nowadays and best believe when I'm on a hashtag, it's people referring to the fact I punched two directors in the industry."
"Dide, you're putting yourself down too much." Haruto said as he gave him a pat. "Who cares if you punched some big directors?"
"Sides---You're not gonna know unless you talk to that girl." Ren said.
Dide looked nervous before he took a deep breath. "Maybe---You're right Ren. But I think I'd best sleep on it." He got his fowl beside him and took a nap with Ren and others looking worried.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-The Next Day-Shujin Academy; Class 3B-
Dide had sat at his seat playing a mobile game on his phone trying to forget about the events from yesterday. Though he had a difficult time in doing so since---
---All that had been on his mind was the girl. An image of her kept rising to him as if it had been a bubble.
"Come on---use a move--" Dide said.
The moment his character in the game was defeated, it soon beeped.
"You lose!" it said. "You loser~"
"Oh Damn it!" Dide exclaimed before he took a breath, "Okay---Dide, you've had your flings before---This is nothing compared to before, this is fine---" He soon rubbed his head, "---I just gotta make the first move. Only---I don't know which class she's in or who she even is."
The class door soon opened as Dide looked a bit perplexed. However---
"Excuse me?" A Familiar voice said.
Dide immediately sat up right and saw to his own shock----
---It had been the girl from yesterday night.
"Is this Class 3B?" She asked as she seemed to light the room again.
Dide could only shriek as his eyes seemed to pop out of his sockets again. He quickly hid his face as she conversed with the other students.
"IT'S HER!" Dide thought. "IT'S REALLY HER! Easy Dideolu...Just relax..it's nothing--Like Ren said, it's healthy to have crushes, I mean no harm in that right--But wait--What if she knows about my celebrity life like every girl in this school?! Oh damn it! What do I do?! What if I mess up?! What if I--"
In his thought they were playing fast as if it was a tape cassette with his thoughts jumbling around and in an intelligible language not even he could decipher. Though all of that stopped the moment he heard--
"Hey---"
Dide flinched as he turned around to see the same girl just right there. He nearly jumped back in shock.
"You're from the restaurant last night." She said, "I guess we'll be in the same class."
Dide tried to say something but all that could come out of his mouth was--
"Meep."
"..Meep?" the girl asked.
Dide got it together as he said "I mean---Yeah! Sure are! We most certainly are-----" He soon paused when he realized---
"I DON'T EVEN KNOW HER NAME!!" He shrieked in his head.
He soon heard a chuckle from her as he saw--she was smiling. "You're funny!"
"O-Oh Th-thank you---uhh----"
"Haru." The girl--Haru introduced herself. "Haru Okumura. What's your name?"
Dide soon flinched, "I'm---Sorry?"
"Your name---" Haru said, "---I'd like to know if that's alright?"
Dide took a moment to process this. Ever since Kamoshida had the information leaked everyone in the school knew who he was just from the face alone. But this girl… Haru… She looked at him differently than the others. He only looked shocked before he gained his composure, as he decided to test something.
He decided to give her his real name.
"It's… Dídéolú Waverly Danjuma Gbadamosi. But---People call me Dide."
Haru couldn't help but have a look of awe, "Wow, you're a foreigner? I heard about their being a foreign transfer student but I never thought I would have the same class as him." She smiled again, "I think you and I are gonna get along swimmingly."
"Y-Yeah…" Dide said.
The bell soon rang as Murdock stepped in the classroom. "Alright, everybody sit down---" He said as the students quickly got to their seats, "---Class will begin in a few short moments."
As Dide watched Haru get to her seat the gears in his head turned. And when it all finally clicked he felt his heart go a flutter as his face turned red. He soon had a goofy smile as his heart seemed to skip a beat when he realized one thing.
"She doesn't know about my celebrity life!" Dide thought in his head. "This is sweet! She's a blank state! Perfect even All I have is--" He realized she thought "Wait she's in a blank state--That could also be bad! What if Someone like Seiko blabs about my life in the entertainment industry?! That'll raise red flags about me to her! What if I mess up and say something weird?! Hell, What if she sees one of my movies and TV roles?! What if--"
"Hey Dide."
Dide flinched he sat up to see Murdock having a look as the students watched.
"How was the dream? Was it nice?" Murdock asked as it made the students chuckle.
"N-No sir!" Dide exclaimed.
"Good, now can I get to the lesson?" Murdock asked. He soon continues the lesson with Dide only sighing. As the lesson progressed, he could only look to Haru as he had been pondering the best case scenario.
"Yeah--Maybe i'm overthinking this. Like Kai said, she probably never saw a movie of mine." Dide said. "Ren's right, I won't know until I ask her. But---" He soon groaned as he shrieked, "---HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO DO THAT?!"
Dide immediately covered his mouth as he realized----He spoke his thoughts aloud.
The class looked at Dide oddly with Murdock turning
"You sure, you're okay, Dide?" Murdock asked.
Dide gave an awkward laugh as he said, "..Dandy.." His face turned red as he buried himself in the book before thinking, "WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Lunch-
Lunch soon came again as everyone gathered in the cafeteria due to the rain outside. Many of the students had been on line trying to get themselves a decent meal---Or a good sandwich. Ryuji and Dide had been attempting to fight their way through the line. Though as they did, Dide couldn't help but talk.
"You blurted out your thoughts during class?" Ryuji said, shocked.
"I know.." Dide said. "God, it's so embarrassing! What is wrong with me?"
"Dude, it's okay!" Ryuji told him. "Many people blurt out their thoughts all the time, hell I've had that!"
"Yeah but it ain't supposed to happen to me!" Dide said, "I'm supposed to be the cool headed guy!"
"I thought that was more Ren's speed." Ryuji said.
"..Okay the LEVEL headed chill guy." Dide said.
"Still what made you blurt those out anyway?" Ryuji asked.
"...I'd rather not say." Dide said.
Ryuji looked to him with suspicion as Dide flinched. Ryuji seemed to put it together as he said, "You got a crush don't you?"
"WHO TOLD YOU THAT?!" Dide shouted.
"Haruto came clean about it." Ryuji said, "So you got your eyes on a girl?"
"What?! No!" Dide said before he whispered, "You know what happens with former celebs getting significant others. Nothing But Paparazzi! Hell! I got so many Love letters in my locker that they had to get two of them!"
"Come on, man!" Ryuji said. "Having Crushes IS normal for teenage boys! 'Sides, Girls love a guy who was once a celebrity, even foreign ones! Trust me!"
Dide sighed as he said "yeah--you're right--still how do i approach this? I had flings but never crushes."
"Well Dide, my friend, today's your lucky day!" Ryuji said, "I'm your man in this!"
"You had crushes before?" Dide asked.
"I know one or two~" He said, "I can be your wingman if you really want to talk to this girl!"
Dide turned to him and said, "yes please."
"Alright!" Ryuji said "And since we're here on this line, I got just the thing!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Attempt 1: Getting your crush the perfect lunch-
As the line was starting to get hectic on the way, Dide and Ryuji charged in with guts and they pushed a couple of the students to move out of the way as they bulldozer their way through. Dide soon noticed one of the sandwiches with some thin stakes, lettuce, carrots and cabbage as his eyes widen
"Jackpot!" Dide shouted as he began to stretch his hand to grab the sandwich with ease much to the students' shock as they were in awe.
"Amazing! That stretch!" one of them said.
"I remember he used it in a movie!" another added.
"I can die happy! He did the thing in person!" a female student said
"Nice Sandwich master!" Ryuji cheered.
"Thank you!" Dide said. "Now I can--"
"DIDE! DIDE! DIDE! DIDE!"
Dide flinched as he turned to see a fan group approach him--but it wasn't just a fan group--
"Oh god--not the Dide fan club." Dide said
"The what?!" Ryuji said, shocked.
"My Fanclub…" Dide said, "... It formed the second Kamoshida leaked the fact I'm a celebrity…"
"We saw that move!" one of them said.
"H-Hey--" Said another female student with her hair covering her eyes. "C-Can you do the samething to--"
"WHATEVER YOU'RE IMPLYING! I AIN'T DOING!" Dide shouted.
"CAN WE GET YOUR AUTOGRAPH?" Another shouted.
"CRAP! WE GOTTA BAIL!" Ryuji shouted as he grabbed his hand.
The moment they dashed away however---Dide ended up dropping the sandwich. He had a look of horror before he cried out, "THE SANDWICH!!!" He soon cried. "MI SANDWHICH!"
"Oh no! Our glorious King Dide dropped that perfectly delicious sandwich!" One of the female fans exclaimed.
Another Male student went on all four to eat the sandwich much to their disgust.
"EWWW!"
"Hey no!" one of them exclaimed as they smacked the back of their head. "Show some respect to our glorious King Dide!"
"Yeah! Let's raid the sandwich store instead!" The hair covering girl exclaimed."And maybe Dide-sama will notice me~"
They spoon proceeded to rain the sandwich shop causing all kinds of chaos.
"Uh…" Ryuji said, just stunned, "... I think we just dodged a bullet with that sandwich…"
Dide's eye twitched before he slapped himself in the face, "My Stardom is a curse."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Attempt 2: Getting a Book for your Crush-
After the chaos in the cafeteria, the boys began to head to the Library to find a book for his crush. They started at the fiction book section as they looked around for the perfect story.
"Is she a fantasy fan?" Ryuji asked.
"Don't know, but it's worth a shot!" Dide said, "Sides, who wouldn't love this book called, 'The singer's affair?"
"I---Never heard of that one." Ryuji said, "Then again I'm more into manga."
Dide gasped, "Are you kidding?! This series was WAY popular in the states and Japan! They even did a drama adaptation on it! I should know, A few friends of mine were on it."
"Didn't think you were a fan of this kind of genre…" Ryuji said before he noticed the girl---Haru entered the library, "Oh hey, there she is!"
Dide immediately flinched before he did something unexpected….
… He attempted to jump out the window.
"NO!" Ryuji shouted as he immediately pulled him back, causing Dide to land flat on his back. Ryuji sighed with relief before he quickly hid himself and Dide when Haru looked in their direction.
"Dude!" Ryuji said, "What the heck?! Why did you try to jump out of the goddamn window?!"
".... MY BODY MOVED ON ITS OWN…" Dide said with a petrified look.
"WHAT KIND OF AN EXCUSE IS THAT?!" Ryuji shouted, "AND WHY ARE YOU MAKING THAT FACE?!"
"Hell if i should now.." Dide said.
"Come on, dude." Ryuji said as he sat him up. "You gotta muster the courage, Just ask her favorite book and who knows. Maybe she'll like it and if she doesn't know, you can make a convo out of it."
Dide sighed as thought about it, "... Make a convo huh…?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Attempt 3: Walking your Crush to the Train Station-
Before the time had come, it was after school. Classes were done for the day and everyone had been starting to head home or off to practice. Dide had been at the lockers where he noticed Haru ready to leave. Ryuji, who had been with him, gave him a tap on the shoulder, "Go on, offer to walk her to the train station!"
"You sure, she's not gonna see me like I'm a creep?"
"No man!" Ryuji said, "Just go over and talk to her."
Dide gulped as he sighed before saying "Here it comes." he walked over to Haru to which she turned over---
---Though Dide immediately ran behind the door to hide himself. Haru wondered what was going, though seemed to shrug it off before she stepped out.
"WHAT THE HECK DUDE?!" Ryuji shouted, "GO GET HER!"
"Trying.." Dide said.
"WELL TRY HARDER MAN!" Ryuji said as he practically kicked him out the door, making Dide shriek.
He walked out as he caught himself before he saw Haru at the gate. "H-H-H-haru!"
Haru turned as she saw "Oh! Dide-san! I was wondering where you were."
"Y-Yeah, I had to pick up something from my locker!" Dide said "S-Say d-do you wanna train to the station with walk?"
Haru was confused as she said "Huh?"
"OH! I mean, Station the walk with the train!" Dide said. "No, I mean Walk to the station with you!"
Haru paused at this as she pondered. Though she eventually replied, "I'd like that."
Dide couldn't help but smile at this as he walked with Haru. Though internally? He was freaking out. "OH MY GOD! I ASKED A GIRL TO WALK TO THE STATION! AND BEST OF ALL SHE DOESN'T KNOW MY FILMOLOGY! THIS IS THE BEST!"
Thus the two began to walk to the station as Ryuji couldn't help but softly cheer for his friend. "Go get em."
As they were walking the two were getting to know each other quite well, of course since Dide's real name and former job occupation leaked to the school. He decided to tell Haru what he did for a living before.
"Oh! You used to be a celebrity?!" Haru said, "Like on TV and stuff?"
"Oh Yeah! I had a lot of roles and was doing so well--Until that incident where I punched the directors becaus eof creati e differences." Dide said. "You must think i'm a loose cannon, huh?"
"O-oh! Not at all!" Haru said before she smiled. "If anything, i think it's genuine to have feeling like that."
"I'm---Actually surprised that you haven't heard of me." He admitted, "How exactly?"
"I---Don't follow much television when it comes to TV shows actually." She replied, "I'm really more interested in gardening. I have one up on the school rooftop that I often tend to."
"A Garden? What do you grow from there?" Dide asked.
"All sorts of things!" She said, "From fruits to vegetables, even herbs that are often used in tea and even coffee."
"Coffee, really? I didn't know that."
"Oh it's actually fascinating, you see---"
They soon heard a whistle coming from the other side as they saw some guys with a couple of punks. They didn't look like they had gone to their school; though judging from their casual clothes---They looked way older then the other students that attended Shujin.
"Well, well look at you---" One of them said to Haru, "---You're looking fine, ain't ya?"
"H-Huh?" Haru said, looking uneasy.
"Pretty girl like you, can do so much better than this guy." He said.
"Why don't you ditch this loser and hang out with us?" Another said, "We'll show you a good time."
"I--I'm sorry?" Haru said.
One of them soon took her wrist, "Come on, we'll show you a fun time pretty girl."
"Yeah they say natives are better than foreigners after all! What do ya say?" another added as he started to caress her hip making her uncomfortable.
"Hey!" Dide said as he got in between her and them. "Can't you see the lady aint interested? Get lost!"
"Huh?"
"Hey you asking to be deported?"
"No I'm asking you to leave her alone." Dide said, Haru was blushing at the way Dide was defending himself to protect her.
"Oh you're really asking for it!" poje of them said. "How about I mess up that face of yours!" He hurled a punch only for Dide to redirect it back before clapping his hands on his head as he shouted in pain
"Wh-what the hell?!"
One if them grunted as he got a knife before trying to stab him. 'Damn Foreig--"
Dide fgor his bag to disarm him before using his knee to push him back.
"Crap! He's a karate expert!" One shouted as they ran.
"This ain't over!" one of them shouted as they ran away with Haru surprised in awe. "I thought you said you know one martial art."
"Remember---two truths and a Lie. That was one lie." Dide said as he dusted himself.
"... Dide-san---You're incredible!" She said.
Dide blushed as he said "Oh it's nothing, just basic Krav Maga self defense, that's all!"
Haru only smiled at this as Dide could see her turn red, "So---Where did you learn Krav Maga?"
"Oh it was for a movie, they had me learn Krav Maga for a good 2 weeks, I was a fast learner so it got done really quick." Dide explained.
"2 weeks?!" Haru exclaimed. "W-wow, and the fact you're a fast learner." She soon asked "hey--is it--okay if we share contact information?"
"Oh! Sure!" Dide said, as he went to take out his phone---
---Though he ended up dropping it.
"Oop! That's uh---My bad there---" Dide said he quickly went to pick it up, "---Let me just---"
Haru couldn't help but giggle at this before Dide got the phone. They placed their phone close to each other as they heard a confirmed chime.
"Sweet!" Dide said, "Now we can talk to each other whenever we want!"
"Yeah---We can." Haru said as before they knew it----They arrived at the station. "Well---" Haru said, as she fixed her hair, "---I should get going. So, I'll see you tomorrow?"
"Yeah! I look forward to it!" Dide said
Haru smiled as she gave a wave just as she arrived on the train with Dide waving back as he soon thought to himself "Didelou you sly dog~ you did it! You got a girl's number and she likes ya! Ren and the others were right! I just needed to put my foot at the door!" He soon walked with a smile on his face as he couldn't help but whistle.
As Dide walked to his own train he soon realized one critical detail. One detail that came to him in the amount of time he has been on this earth.
"HOLY SHIT I JUST GOT A GIRL'S NUMBER!!!!" Dide shouted before he covered his mouth. He looked over and noticed the whole crowd had been looking.
Dide immediately looked down as he sped walked away, as he continued to get the awkward looks.
