Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 253 - Do you like Lucia?
...***...
Yoke!
Lucia looked up when she saw that there were other trays placed along with her trays.
"I can sit with you, right?" rei asked Lucia and Gloria who had just arrived there.
"Of course, let's sit together." Gloria. The girl sat down first followed by Rei and Lucia, before long Heru joined in and sat opposite Gloria.
Since the incident in the UKS room at that time, somehow Lucia felt that Rei was a little strange. Especially the past few days, his attitude had changed to be a little softer than before.
What's wrong with Rei? I feel that for the past few days his attitude has been a bit strange, thought Lucia.
He nodded slowly trying not to think about it. He prefers to focus on his food.
"This is the dish I've been waiting for the most on Wednesdays and Thursdays." Heru stared at the food in front of him.
"I also really like this menu. If only they cooked it every day." Gloria replied with a deep smile.
"You know why they don't provide this every day?" Heru suddenly threw a rhetorical question.
"No. Why indeed?"
"Because if every day the same menu. People will get bored, otherwise it could be just the two of us eating."
"Haha, you have a point too. Come on, let's eat."
Gloria and Heru refocused on eating the food in front of him. Voraciously, they ate in a hurry to the point of barely choking.
Rei just kept quiet. He had not touched his food at all and was more focused on looking at Lucia's face.
After what he did in the UKS room, and the events a few days later, Rei finally realized that he liked the girl who often spoke to him.
"Rei? Why are you staring at Lucia like that?" gloria's reprimand that in an instant made Rei wake up from his daydream.
"You haven't eaten your food since and you've continued to focus on Lucia. Do you like it?" ask Gloria again.
Lucia tried to ignore the words of her best friend and chose to return to her food.
"Yes," Rei replied making Lucia choke in shock.
"Uhuk... uhuk.." Lucia coughed. He patted his chest.
Rei who saw that spontaneously moved thrusting the drink towards him. Lusia thoughtlessly grabbed the glass he gave and gulped it down to the toilet.
Meanwhile, Gloria and Heru were surprised by the answer Rei gave. The two looked at him with faces of disbelief.
They looked back at Rei who had just said. Rei looks worried about Lucia, now the man is even trying to help overcome Lucia who is choking.
"You okay? Is it better?" ask Rei worriedly.
"I've started to feel good" murmured Lucia.
"really? Are you sure?" Rei is still trying to make sure. Lucia nodded in response.
"Wait on! What did you say, Rei?" Gloria tried to clarify Rei's last words.
"Huh?" Rei looked towards him.
"You're saying you like Lucia?" Gloria. Rei was silent with his innocent face, he was completely unaware that he had just said that.
"Are I talking like that?" ask Rei.
"Oh, come on, don't pretend."
