fifth redemption

party

It has been a few days since Tenrou and I became a thing.

Needless to say, it was a very new experience for me. Exciting and humbling at the same time. She taught me whatever I needed to know about being a good man; I have to say that she took her lessons from those novels she always read. She'd always be talking about this Don Diego, a Mr. Darcy, and a Mr. Knightley.

She's trying to turn me into a "chivalrous" and "genteel" man, whatever those words even mean.

Either way, it was nice to have a solid, defined relationship with her.

I was at her place for dinner and as we were preparing her soup, she said,

"We have to go shopping."

"What for?" I asked, moving the veggies I had chopped from the board to the plate.

"My friend from high school is having a birthday party and she's calling all of us to join."

"And why should I go shopping? I'm not going to this party, am I?"

She smiled at me. "You are."

I narrowed my eyes at her. "Why?"

"I need a date."

"What's a date?"

"That means someone will come with me to the party, or else I won't be able to go. To match with the luxe, celebrity red carpet theme, I need a date."

"Does it have to be me?"

"What sort of a question is that?" she shook her head, "You're my boyfriend, that's why!"

I huffed. Hearing her say that made me shy without fail.

"You sure wouldn't like me going with Bad now, would you?" she smirked.

I glared at her and responded with a resounding "No!"

My response made her giggle. "Besides," she took the shreds of cooked chicken and put them in the pot, "I just want you to experience nice things, ya know."

"Nice things like what?"

"Delicious food."

My mouth watered. She nearly convinced me, but not quite. "Wh-what food?"

"Steaks, gourmet all you can eat, desserts, you name it." she said, nose in air, "My friend is filthy rich."

Okay, she got me.

"When's this party?' I asked.

"In two days. Until then we have to decide outfits, which we will do tomorrow."

Shopping honestly sounded like a pain, but one look at her face told me she was excited about it. I huffed; I'm in it for the food. Well, let's see how it goes.

Shouldn't be too bad, I guess.

Shopping is so damn boring.

I was seated on the couch in the fancy looking clothes shop which was named "Klein", bored out of my mind. Tenrou had taken a dress with her to the trial room and she's taking a hell long time.

We haven't even gotten to shopping for my clothes yet. I huffed and looked at the floor length mirror to my right. Tenrou dressed me in my favorite colour: black. Black baseball jacket with white trimmings, a lightweight black hoodie underneath that served as a shirt, black ripped jeans, and black sneakers.
