Sugoaku

Eri is always with someone from Bonten or with Seishu. However, there are also days when she is alone. Today was such a day.

She wanted to annoy the guys from Bonten, but they were all on a mission. She also tried to call Seishu, who told her that the shop today was too busy. He offered that she still could come, but she declined. 

Emi was with her parents at her grandparent's, and Emi hated her grandparents. She thought about going to the pet shop, but Chifuyu still didn't text her. She would look like a crazy bitch when she would go there.

After a while, she got hungry and was too lazy to make herself food. She made her way to Tokyo because why not. There were the best food shops she ever ate from. She had a list of food shops she wanted to visit on her phone.

Next stop Sugoaku.

The outside was beautiful and Eri gave them points for it. As she made her way inside, the delicious smell of ramen hit her. She sat down next to someone because Mikey told her a few days before she shouldn't draw too much attention and blend in the crowd. Yet, she was once again wearing one of her many clothes that screamed 'funeral'. 

The truth was that the moment Eri made her way inside, all attention was on her. She looked like a high class person, and she had a constant bitch face on. There was also another thing, our crybaby hero was once again here, but this time alone. 

He tried to ask the twins more about Mikey, but got nothing. That was one of the reason he was eating his ramen in such a depression way. Eri didn't even spare him a glance. She looked at the menu and looked a little confused. 

A guy with blue hair made his way to her. He had an angry look on his face, ''do you need any help, Miss?'' Eri looked up from the menu and looked a little surprised. He was cute, but why was he angry? Chifuyu was cuter, so that wasn't her problem.

'' yes, what is the difference between the Smiley one and the Angry one?'' she asked and took her sunglasses off. 

'' The Smiley one is spicy, while the Angry one isn't spicy at all.'' he told her, and she gave him a nod. 'Why the hell didn't they just exchanged the names? It confuses the hell out of me.'

'' can I please have the Angry one and a glass of water?'' she asked, and he nodded. After her left, she got on her phone and tried to relax. That was, however, hard with the guy next to her mumbling about 'saving' someone.

Then he suddenly stood up, scaring Eri who was about to murder his ass. He put money on the counter and yelled, 'Thanks for the food!'. Then he ran out and Eri had a 'what the fuck' look on her face.

'' sorry about that. Takemichy is a little weird.'' a guy who looked like the guy who took her order, but he had pink hair and was smiling.

'' he really seems to have issues.'' Eri told the guy who laughed.

'' Takemichy was always so weird! When we were younger, he would suddenly start to yell nonsense out!'' Eri raised an eyebrow and looked amused.

''what a weird guy. I mean, if I was his friend, I would have punched him a long time ago.'' Smiley laughed at that.

'' we all had the urge once to do it.'' then her food was, put on the table by the other twin. 

As she took her first bite, her eyes widen. She didn't think that it would taste that good. After she finished, the pink haired guy made his way to her.

'' did you like your food?'' 

'' I really did. I'm happy that I didn't get the Smiley one because I hate spicy food.'' she told him. Smiley got a small flashback.

They were a lot younger and Mikey was with them. The other Toman captains were also there and eating ramen. Suddenly Mikey yelled ''Ken-chin! I hate spicy food, get me another one.''

''HUH?! You were the one who wanted to get this one! Eat or starve.'' Mikey fell in silence and everyone looked a little confused.

'' Toman has a problem, guys.'' everyone now knew what was going to happen.

'' Toman doesn't have a problem.'' Baji said, and Mikey just looked at him.

'' yes, Toman has. We need to get me another Ramen and the only way to decided is through-'' before he could finish, something was, placed right in front of him. 

'' look Mikey, a new one. Please don't yell inside a ramen shop me and Smiley go to. This one is our favorite.'' 

Smiley didn't know why these three words could bring such a long forgotten memory back. He looked at Eri who was giving him a confused look. 

'' you really remind me of a guy I once knew.'' he said, and she had a small smirk on her face.

'' I'm a lot pretty.'' Smiley laughed and ruffled her hair. She gave him a small glare.

'' my name is Nahoya Kawata, what is your name?''

Eri didn't know what to say. Who was she? Was she Eri Ito? Her mothers' child. Or was she Eri Inui? But she could also be Eri Kokonoi. When did it happen that she didn't even know who she was.

'' Eri just Eri.'' she gave him a small smile. He nodded and gave her a card.

'' oh I don't want to hurt your feelings, but you are not my type.'' she said and Smiley laughed.

'' you are a little too young for me. And for your information, I'm everyone's type.'' she rolled her eyes and took the card.

'' then for what is the card?'' she asked.

'' hm? Of course for when you want to eat delicious ramen!'' She nodded. They talked for a while and then she left. 

She walked to the train station and was about to make her way back to Bonten's hideout, but stopped. Her question from earlier came to her, and she walked out of the train station. She made her way to a bike shop and saw her favorite dad. 

He was talking to someone. She made her way inside and waited for him to realize that she was there. Her sunglasses on top of her hair and her in soft curls. Once he was finished, Eri made her way to him, and he gave her a soft smile.

'' you came? I thought you wouldn't come.'' he said.

'' I changed my mind. Let's have a sleepover today.''

First, sorry for the late update. I was too lazy to write a chapter, and today I was unusual motivated to write. I know that many of you are not going to like this chapter because of the whole 'who am I?' thing. However, I needed to write it down because Eri is first, still a child and over a few months so much changed. One minute she was with her mother, who loved her but didn't have time because of work. Then a crazy guy kidnaps her, and she is getting adopted by two guys who don't even know how they feel about each other.

Also, the flashback wasn't planned. I was hearing a song from Mitski and suddenly the line 'I know who you pretend I am' came. That is also such a good way to describe Eri's character. Well, not really her character, but how the others see her. I mean, how many people see another person in Eri?
