EARLIER BEFORE IN THE HOTEL, DURING BREAKFAST TIME
When Aihara and Ayaka are lining up to take the foods, Ayaka looks at Hiroto.
Right now, he's already in front of the line and start taking the foods.
As she sees him, she pouts and says, "It seems that he is still doesn't feel guilty of his mistakes last night."
Aihara smiles and replies, "Ah, haha, yeah."
Ayaka says, "He really has no heart, hmph!"
Aihara replies, "Yes, he is a type of man who always be straightforward to others and yeah, his mouth is sharp. Even I also feel irritated of that behaviour of his."
Ayaka then says, "RIGHT?!! So he is so mean and not capable to understand women's feelings."
Aihara replies, "Haha, like he cares."
Ayaka says, "He never think of me, he always think of his work, work, work. Ah, that guy really irritates me."
Aihara replies, "But despite that, you still like him, don't you?"
Ayaka blushes and answers, "Hmm, yeah."
Suddenly Yamada appears behind them and says, "Hoh! It seems like you girls are talking something interesting. Let me join!!"
Aihara and Ayaka surprise and replies, "YAMADA-SAN!!"
Yamada says, "YO!"
Then Miyako appears behind her and says, "Ohayou Gozaimasu, Aihara-san, Ayaka-san."
"Miyako-san!"
Miyako says again, "It's nice to meet you two again."
Ayaka smiles and replies, "So do we."
Yamada then says, "So, so, what are you two talking about? I heard that Ayaka said that she likes someone, who? Who? Come on, spill it out."
Ayaka feels embarrassed.
Aihara immediately replies, "Its Hiroto-san desu."
Yamada and Miyako surprise, "HA!!!!!"
Ayaka says, "AIHARA-CHAN!!!!!"
Aihara replies, "Haha, Gomen, Gomen."
Yamada says, "Wow! I don't expect that you like a guy like him."
Miyako says, "Yes, myself also surprised."
Ayaka replies, "Ha! So what type of man do you guys think I like?"
Yamada and Miyako answers, "KPOP BOYS."
Ayaka says, "Well, you guys aren't wrong with that, but I still like Hiroto-san."
Yamada then asks, "Say this, why did you like him?"
Ayaka blushes and replies, "Well…..it's…..because…he's..he's.."
Yamada and Miyako look at her and say, "HE'S............"
Ayaka says, "BECAUSE HE IS NOT LIKE OTHER MEN!!!!!"
The other confused, "HAH?"
Ayaka says again, "Well, he's different! He is mature, responsible, honest and loyal. And yeah I know that he doesn't like to chatter a lot, kinda mean and always take everything serious, but I also like that side of him. That side of him is cool. I know sometimes it hurts my heart when he doesn't take me seriously, but I still love him. I LOVE HIS STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES!!!!!!!!!!"
Aihara, Yamada and Miyako replies, "WOW!!"
Yamada says, "That's tough love you got there."
Miyako replies, "Yes, indeed. I respect your thought."
Then Yamada says, "Well, if you love him that much, why don't you confess to him?"
Ayaka replies, "Well, it's not like I don't want to or I'm afraid. But I got the feeling that he will reject me directly just like he always do. Like I said, he's a straightforward person."
Aihara says, "Yeah, probably he'll react like that. But he never feel love or confession. So maybe he'll react different."
Ayaka replies, "Nah, he'll reject me right in front of my face. Especially if it's me."
Yamada says, "Oh alright, let's make a bet."
The three of them reply, "A BET?!"
Yamada says again, "Yeah, a bet! If he surprised and reconsider to think about it when you're confessed to him, I win. But if he directly reject you at that moment right after you confessed, you win."
Ayaka replies, "Is there any reward or consequences?"
Yamada smiles and says, "Alright, if you win, I'll give you your favourite Labubu that you truly like."
Ayaka reacts happily, "REALLY?!"
Yamada replies, "Yeah, but if I win, I demand you to make that man yours and spill all of your relationship's progress everyday."
Ayaka thinks for a moment and then she replies, "DEAL!!"
Yamada says, "Okey Dokey. Alright, let us all make a group chat where four of us are in it, so we could share informations."
Aihara replies, "Sure."
Ayaka replies, "OK!"
Miyako replies, "Alright, I will make the group right away."
Yamada says, "Haha. Arigatou, Miyako-chan. Alrighty then, let's start the bet!!"
After they finish take their breakfast, Aihara sees that Ryunosuke is talking to a woman (Which is Maiya Kogane).
And it seems like that they having some kinda relationship.
Because Maiya speaks enthusiastically.
Aihara doesn't want to judge him, but she still feel jealous.
In her thought, she says, "WHO IS THAT WOMAN? It seems like they're close. I guess it's normal for a man to have a relationship, besides he's a good man. But why do I feel that I dislike it when he's with another woman?"
Four of them sit together and have a nice morning breakfast.
After that, they bid farewell.
Miyako bows and Yamada says, "I'LL WAIT FOR YOUR ANSWER, AYAKA-CHAN!!"
Ayaka replies, "YEAH!"
Yamada says, "GOOD LUCK!!"
Then they leave.
As they leave, Aihara says in her thought, "Is Ryunosuke have a relationship with that woman? I have to know."
SO THEN BACK TO THE PRESENT
Aihara says towards Ryunosuke, "Hmm, Ryunosuke-kun. I want to ask you something."
"Hmm?"
Aihara then says with an unhappy expression, "Who was the woman you were talking to earlier?"
Ryunosuke replies, "Oh, uh...….."
Aihara stares at him with a serious face.
In his thought, he says, "Why does Aihara look at me like that?"
Ryunosuke then answers, "Well, that woman I talked to earlier at the hotel is just an acquaintance of mine."
Aihara says, "Oh, just an acquaintance, huh...…."
Then she smiles again, "OK!"
Ryunosuke then says in his thought, "Why does she asks me about that woman? And that expression of her face, it looks like that she's unhappy or rather dissatisfied. But why? Have I done that made her upset? Or? AH!! I DON'T KNOW!! I DON'T KNOW WHY SHE FEELS UPSET TO ME!!"
As he thinks, suddenly the elevator door opens and when it opens, Kazuo appears.
Ryunosuke surprised.
Kazuo smiles and says, "Oh hello there."
