Love letters in west Tokyo

Complements to the chef

Rachel: Haaaa....

I'm sitting at my photo shoot waiting for them to call me in and I let out a sigh.

Levi: Tch. 16

I notice Levi and look over at him.

Rachel: Ah! When did you get here?!

Levi shakes his head.

Levi: I've been here the entire time! I was here before you got here!

I smile awkwardly and scratch the back of my neck.

Rachel: O-oh! Heh heh. Sorry! And...why'd you say 16...?

Levi rolled his eyes and crossed his legs.

Levi: The number of sighs. Dumass.

I cross my arms and pout.

Rachel: Ok ok! Gosh! You don't have to curse at me!

Levi mocks me by crossing his arms.

Levi: Huh. I think I do. Your brain is just so small I have to curse to get my fucking point across. Ya know, it's Either that or smacking you over the head with something to get you back into your senses.

I roll my eyes and mimic Levi, moving my hand in a mouth shape. Opening and closing it until he looks over at me and I quickly stop.

Levi: You're so childish, ya know that?

I widen my eyes.

Rachel: Oh. I'M childish?! What about you? Mr. "You're such a dumbass, you're fucking stupid, your brain is the size of a walnut" like what? I'm clearly the victim here!

Levi furrows his eyebrows and has a scary aura around him.

Levi: I never said anything about it being the size of a walnut. More like a pea...But how about you? Mrs. "I'm so clumsy! I trip over every single thing. Oh! Don't look at me, I'm changing!" When you fucking live with like twenty other me--

Rachel: How the hell do you know where I live?! Are you stalking me now? God. You're such a creep!

Levi immediately shuts his mouth and crosses his arms again looking pissed.

Rachel: That's what I thought.

I cross my arms and look away from Levi.

Levi: Look I--

Worker: Mrs. Kougami and Mr. Ackerman? You can come back now.

I look at Levi and he shuts his mouth and mumbles a 'thanks' to the worker and walks out the door.

I get up and follow him out.

Rachel: Thanks...

???: Rachel! Hey! RAAAAAACHELLLLLLL!!!!!!!!

I snap out of my daydream and look up at the source of the noise.

Rachel: Oh...sorry Yamato...I just have a lot on my mind. It's nothing to worry about tho. What's up?

Yamato doesn't look satisfied by me telling him it's 'nothing to worry about' but continues to speak.

Yamato: I was just gonna say that maybe we should go out to eat tonight? You know, hang out with your friends.

I shrug and rest my head on my arm.

Rachel: Yea. That's fine. Why all of a sudden tho? I thought you were gonna cook tonight.

Yamato sits down next to me and rests his cheek on his arm.

Yamato: Yea, I was going to. But you look like you have some cheering up to do.

I smile a little and shake my head.

Rachel: No. I just got into a fight with a co-worker. It's nothing to worry about. I was looking forward to your cooking! Can you even cook?

I quickly change the subject, not wanting to talk about earlier.

Yamato: Ha! You don't even know! I'm amazing at cooking!

Yamato gives me a reassuring thumbs up and I just roll my eyes.

Rachel: Mhmm. Let's just wait and see.

I smile and rest my head on my hand while Yamato puts his hand over his heart and looks offended.

Yamato: Oh. I'm hurt...I don't think I can cook tonight.

Yamato over reacts and lays down on the couch like he's wounded. I walk over to him and start to pull him back up.

Rachel: Nope! Not today! You're going to cook tonight!

I keep attempting to pull him up but he's just too heavy.

Yamato: You have to say you're sorry...And that I'm the greatest and most handsome big brother ever.

I groan and sit on the coffee table.

Rachel: I'm not saying that.

Yamato: Then I'm not making dinner. You'll just have to find some other way to get food!

I sigh and cross my arms.

Rachel: Fine. I'm soooo sorry big bro! You're the greatest and most handsome big brother anyone could EVERRRRR have!

I say over dramatically while putting my hands together apologetically.

Yamato: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. That was amazing! Alright. I'll make dinner now.

Yamato gets off the couch and ruffles my hair on the way to the kitchen.

Rachel: Damn child.
