That Blonde Guy

Chapter 31

The sun immediately hit Sayuri's skin as she walked out of the grocery store that morning.

It was Saturday.

The girl took a deep sigh, struggling to hold the huge paper bag filled with grocery items on her chest. Being the youngest--but not so young anymore--in the family, Sayuri had been saddled the work of doing the grocery every week. She didn't mind it though. It was the only thing that she does in the family anyway, and it's not like she's doing it for free.

["Are you done?"]

"I hate you." She rolled her eyes, pressing the phone against her ear. "This bag's literally heavier than me, I swear."

She was exhausted, irritated, but at least there was an air conditioning inside the store so she didn't get sweaty and her make up didn't get ruined.

["Stop complaining, you brat."]

"I am literally fifteen, this is child abuse! Adults like you should be doing this kind of stuff, damn what am I, a robot? Am I even being treated well in this family? You don't even--"

["Alright, go buy that liquid eyeliner."]

She grinned. "Really? Omg, you're the best sissy, thanks mwah!"

["I need my card back by lunch, don't--"]

"Byeee~"

With a huge grin on her face, she put the phone back in her pocket. Flipping her hair back, she sighed, held the paper bag even tighter, and hailed a ride to her favorite make-up store just around the school.

Of course, it was just like how she planned. She's been going around the house the whole week, blabbering about how cute this new eyeliner from the store, talking to herself in a loud, echoing voice so everyone would hear her. No one ignores her as she knew she was everyone's 'favorite' family member--or at least that's what she thought.

Doesn't matter, at least she now had her sister's card to herself to buy that cute eyeliner.

And would she only buy the eyeliner?

Of course not.

She also planned to get a new foundation and a mascara, and maybe some other stuff that would catch her eyes. 'I'm Sanami's favorite, she wont get mad.'

Holding the huge paper bag of groceries to her chest, she struggled to get out of the Taxi's door as the vehicle arrived at her destination. The heel of one of her boots stepped on a small rock, making her groan as she almost fell. She fought the urge to throw the heavy paper bag on the damn street and instead just took a deep breath and calmed herself.

If only she had a boyfriend that could carry this stupid grocery bag for her.

If only Inui was texting her back.

And once again she remembered how the lad never returned any of her messages, not even once. The fact that he was deadass ignoring her was damaging her precious ego.

'Just what's wrong with that guy? Just because he's fine, doesn't mean he could just ignore my messages like that.'

She sighed, almost rolling her eyes. It's really a big deal for her since she was the one who made the first move, which she rarely does.

Did Inui find her unattractive at all?

'But I mean, I'm fine too, aren't I? Like, duh, I'm literally Sayuri Hisashi.'

Maybe Inui's into ugly girls?

'Whatever, it's his loss, not mine.'

And hey, didn't his 'Baby Kei' already asked Nika for her number? Who knows, he might text her tonight or tomorrow. Who cares about Inui when there's Keisuke Baji about to message her.
