...
A few days after my nighttime treasure hunt with Hoshino, Yuuka scheduled a morning meeting with me at Schale.
One problem though...
She's late.
Which is pretty odd, seeing as how she's super punctual, even going so far as to get on my case about being late for stuff.
Instead of worrying about waiting for her, I decide to get some busy work done.
About a half hour before eleven, Yuuka shoots into my office, yelling "I'm here!"
"Mornin', Yuuka." I say, looking over to her. "I was a bit worried when you didn't show."
"I-I'm so sorry, Sensei. I was working late and overslept..." She apologizes.
"Eh, don't worry about it. Want some coffee?" I ask.
"...That would be nice." She admits, still a bit embarrassed.
The two of us ended up going down the street to Angel 24.
"Welcome to- Oh, Sensei. G-Good morning!" Sora greets me from the counter, looking up from her phone as the small bell on the door chimes.
"Mornin', Sora." I greet back.
"Hmm? You know her?" Yuuka asks.
"I come here most mornings to grab some coffee and the like." I explain, walking over to the refrigerator with canned coffee in it, feeling like drinking it cold for a change. Angel 24 actually serves warm coffee in the morning. "Is there still any warm left?" I ask.
"J-Just a little, though it's probably cold by now." Sora timidly explains.
"Reheat that for Yuuka, please." I say.
"Alright, then." The middle schooler then turns in the machine, reheating the last bit of coffee, as I walk to the counter for her to ring up my can.
"I-I've never seen you before. Are you one of Sensei's friends?" The blonde girl asks Yuuka.
"I suppose. We're more like business associates. I'm Hayase Yuuka, from Millennium. Nice to meet you." The purple haired treasurer introduces.
"I-I'm Sora. Nice to meet you as well." The blonde timidly says.
Soon after I pay, Sora hands Yuuka a warm cup of coffee. "Later, Sora." I say, as we leave the convenience store.
"G-Goodbye, Sensei!" She shouts.
Yuuka and I then walked back to my office. As we entered, she idly noticed something, picking it up to inspect it.
"What's that?" I ask, sitting down.
"A board game." She says.
"Seriously? ...I didn't know that was there."
"You didn't?" She asks, surprise clearly shown.
"Half of the stuff here is unknown to me. Most of it was here when I arrived." I explain.
"Well... could I borrow it then?" She asks.
"You like board games?"
"Of course!" She says, sitting down the box containing the game. "I love board games and online games."
"Didn't expect that." I say.
"Well, shows how much you know about me." She huffs.
"Er, sorry."
"No, i-it's fine." She says, a bit surprised at my sudden apology. "But I like games just as much as the other students. Composing different strategies against difficult enemies is just as fun as solving math problems."
